You have to arrange the following three length.

CHARANIM_ATTACKMELEE
CHARANIM_ATTACKHIGHMELE
CHARANIM_ATTACKLOWMELEE

okay it works.

another question:
where can i change the melee hit strenght? i need 3 or 5 hits to kill an enemy

[MentalSentinel]

Open up database/projectiles/BulletMelee.txt and either change the variable damage, or change the damage number of the P_Explosion in PROJECTILEANIM_EXPLOSION in bulletmelee.

You have to replace all of them. Because of the blending between them.

[Hellsingmod Timmy]

there are 2 different types - 2_shootdodge_ and shootdodge_
the one for rifles and the others for pistols.
can i replace the shootdodges for pistols without replacing the 2 handed ones? and have i to change the _mov.kf2 ?

nice animations dude

[zapper]

Yes, you can do that.
And you have no need to change the _mov.kf2.
Even if the length of ShootDodgeAnim.kf2 and _mov.kf2 is different, no problem.
Of course, you can also make _mov.kf2 newly.
