How do you choose in deftool which types to remove and keep? I can't get them delete. Only ignore filling them with frames?

moving, mouse over, standing, getting hit, defend, death, turn left/right x2, attack up/straight/down, shoot up/straight/down, 2 hex attack up/straight/down, start/stop moving

Quote:Shoot and 2hexed attack are pure optional and u can use them in case u are planning to add a corresponding abilities via ERM. All others normally should be, though i cannot tell for sure in which cases the game will crash if there will be no some of those animations.

[quote]Other creatures (not Darkloke) have no "start/stop moving".

U should study (look how it done) the original H3 monsters in such cases, not the modded ones.

[quote]Turn left/right is only repositioning the model geometrically?

Yes. Usually two frames for this are enough.
