Changing Animations

is this possible? like changing a spell animation to an attack??? anyone know???

This part is not very difficult.
Convert the model you want to change animation to *.mdl file.
open it with Notepad, and then in the animation sequences
you will see an attack animation and a spell animation, just switch the name of those.
ex:
...
Anim "Attack" {
Interval { 71067, 72033 },
NonLooping,
MinimumExtent { -79.5376, -71.5391, -1.95235 },
MaximumExtent { 101.002, 72.0815, 128.679 },
BoundsRadius 92.5312,
}
Anim "Spell" {
Interval { 87733, 89167 },
NonLooping,
MinimumExtent { -74.501, -81.5305, -1.23419 },
MaximumExtent { 56.5354, 55.6868, 149.514 },
BoundsRadius 99.3878,
}
...

here you see the attack animation and the spell animation, after the names is switched, it looks like this:

...
Anim "Spell" {
Interval { 71067, 72033 },
NonLooping,
MinimumExtent { -79.5376, -71.5391, -1.95235 },
MaximumExtent { 101.002, 72.0815, 128.679 },
BoundsRadius 92.5312,
}
Anim "Attack" {
Interval { 87733, 89167 },
NonLooping,
MinimumExtent { -74.501, -81.5305, -1.23419 },
MaximumExtent { 56.5354, 55.6868, 149.514 },
BoundsRadius 99.3878,
}
...

Ever noticed how similar our titles are, Lion?

ok when i do just that it seems to screw up some of the other animations...example...i'm trying to change the spell throw of the demon hunter to attack...i change the names and i convert it back fine...but in game the walk and death and a number of other anmations show the demon hunter sorta like morphing but he's not...what's up with that??? did i lose ya'll???

i dont know whats wrong, i will try to change the animations, lets see if i get the same bug.

i got it working...don't know why it wasn't working before...

ok, i was going to say that it works for me, but since you got it working, then there is no need.
Good luck in the future

thanks for all your help MaD[Lion]...it's nice to get help with something without being flamed for it...
