Ok So I decided I have to make my own animations, because the peasant girl talks real slow.

Well I looked at jaina's animations so I made one like her's. But she has two animations.

I am gonna use some of Jaina's speech thingies, do I need two talky animations? Or is one talky animation enough? The computer controls how long they play right?

I made a talky animation tha tis 79 frames since she has one that is 79 frames.

She also has a talky animation that is 100 frames, but I am tired, and I want to just make my model already. If I don't need an animation with 100 frames then I will stop right now. It's a lot of frames I dealt with today :(

You need as many talk animations as you consider to be enough. One is fine, two is fine again, 3, 5, 100, whatever, it's up to you.

oh good cause I'm lazy. I just wanted to make sure that I don't have to have talk animations of a specific time for each little .wav loop.

The number of frames doesn't matter either, it will just constantly loop until the talking sound effect is done anyway.

To me, the ideal amount would be one neutral looping animation, one or two bored animatuions, and two or three talk animations.

However, technically just one neutral and one talk animation is enough.
