Changing weapon animation?

Tools animation are 16 bytes animations and weapons animation are 8 bytes animation. I don't think they work the same way, meaning a value for animation 1 copied to left hand or right hand will have the same result. Autocrossbow has 4D 00 00 as animation 1 and 4E 00 as special animation. Modifying a weapon left hand, right hand or hit effect with those values will not work.

I don't know much about animation and I could be wrong so maybe you could send Drakkhen a pm with your question. He's the author of FF6MDE and probably knows more about animation than anyone else on the site.
