Weapon Animations

[TripleSixes]

I have been looking for tutorials on how to use/change Skyrim's animations, and one particular idea stuck out. A flail.

This could be achieved with parenting a ball to the end of a mace. I would think that taking the ball and adding it's own collisions and making it stay within a certain distance of the parent would be the way to go about it. Only one problem.

I don't know how to animate....

Any good animation tutorials anyone knows of that can get me started on the right path (or just to improve my experience with Havok)?

There aren't many people in the community that work with animations and those that do have said it's a nightmare. You can't add new animations to the game, you can only edit the ones already there.

Tis a shame, not alot of animators at all really
