Ok i want to make a melee attack but am not shure how i have the odf i just dont know about the amination. I want one kinda like to basic lightsaber attack in bf1 but dont know how. I have read the jedi creation doc but found it kinda confusing. Also how would i go about taking part of a lightsaber anamation and make it a non combo anamation?Or is the bf1 saber attack already in swbf2?

No; it's an unused stock animation tucked somewhere in your animations assets. Don't recall exactly what it's called, offhand. It's in one of the later human folders (human_4?) and it should be named pretty obviously - just munge it into a new animation set.

well to that anim must rename to YOURANIMNAMEYOUWANT_rifle_stand_shoot_secondary2_full and into munge.bat put the same name (YOURANIMNAMEYOUWANT) and then into your unit odf add the line
AnimationName = "YOURANIMNAMEYOUWANT"
and ready
