making new simple animations

Post » Thu Jun 21, 2012 3:18 am

Hi!

I need to make some simple animations for skyrim, like that pull chain for opening doors, or lever, and so on. But all tutorials I find are explaining how to extract character animations and edit them and from that I dont understand anyting. Is there any simple tutorial on how to make simple animations for skyrim from the beginning? Like I make a simple model in 3ds max, make an animation for it and now I need to take it to skyrim. (I dont require knowledge on how to make animations in 3ds max, only how to get them into skyrim).

Specifically, I would like to start with bells

Id like to make a rope, and when player pulls it, bells start moving and sound is playing. I can make animations for that in 3ds max, but engine specific things bug me :S

Are Oblivion tutorials at least partially still game? Like https://sites.google.com/site/saidenstorm/oblivion3dsmaxanimationtutorial

Please, help.

I would also be interested in any such tutorials. I need to make people who swing hammers at walls, and I've no idea how to do it.
