Quick leaderhead animation question

[TheLastOne36]

i tried searching but i'm not going to waste my time going through 20+ pages of topics that involve "animations"

So my question is, is there anyway to make a costum animation for leaderheads? i mean is there any way to make a completely(or partially) new animation?

Sure there is - the stock LH's in the game did not condense out of nothing...
Everything can be done from scratch and animated a new in 3DS Max and exported into the game... But its a whole lot of work (not to mention the needed Software and Knowhow).

As far i know this was done once so far - the Richelieu Leaderhead.

Other than this - you can "remix" animations (Renamig sequeces (.kf)) from different leaders - if those are compartible - there is a "Leaderhead Animation Index" thread giving some detail on this.

You could also do minor changes with nif-scope - here is some detail - http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=271331 - the tutorial is for units, but this will work on LH's as well. Will be quite tedious however, to do bigger changes this way...
