I believe the animation itself needs to be adjusted a bit to fit it the weapon model to the trooper.

I had this problem at one point and it was because the mesh wasn't a child of hp_active.

Sorry, yeah, the weapon mesh goes into hp_active. In other words hp_active serves as the dummyroot null.

I'll try it. In my mesh the weapon is the base and the childs are hp_active and hp_fire. (i used the stock pistol for reference. The rifle may have been better)


==EDIT==

still the same problem. Not sure whether the position was correct at idle before (that's now) but while firing it is still the same problem.

Does the hierarchy look like this:

(where hp_fire would be a child of the weapon mesh I suppose)

Here's what Ace said when I had this issue:

Yes it's looking like this. The right hand is at it's position, but the left hand is wrong placed. I think it's because the left arm is longer than the right one.
