Adding a rancor

Ok, two questions

1) How do I make it so that a rancor that i add actually moves, eats people, etc

I know that this has something to do with munged animations, but frankly, I have no idea what that means (sorry I'm kinda Computer Illiterate :cpu: ).

2) Is it possible to animate an existing, working rancor, so that it will move around the map?
I know how to animate pretty well, but I'm just wondering if it would still work. (EDIT: by this i mean making it move around the map in zeroedit.)

Thanks in advance for Answers

Well, for 2, it is NOT possible. Many skilled modders have tried, but it turns out a mess. The only way would be to create a whole new model.

Well, can you tell me where and how to get these animations? Or, if they're in the documentation, which document to look in?

The animations are in the TAT munged folder.

by #2 do you mean:

A: Can it be made into a playable unit?
B: Can I use Zero Editor's object animation system to move it around?

A: No, I tried doing that myself with the help of another very skilled modeler.
B: I don't see why not, infact i'm pretty sure you can, might look a tad odd with no walk animation, but you should be able to do it.

As for the other, find the rancor related animation files in assets/worlds/TAT/MUNGED
Copy these into your Data_ABC/world/ABC/MUNGED, if you don't have a MUNGED folder there yet, make one, and put the files in it.
