playing around with flight animations and a race

[kl055]

I was playing around with a race that has fligth abilities. My problem is that while my character is flying, I cannot attack or cast spells or anything. Is this due to the flight animation itself or is there a value in the construction set that I can change to make the animation have a lower priority or allow other animations to play simultaneously?

[kl055]

for example, if i was to change the "animation group section" to "lowerbody" instead of "special idle", would this free up movement in the upperbody?

okay, so i looked at the bone priorities in nifskope and they have less priority than attack animations so i should be able to play attack animations overtop of the flight ones

 

can anyone helpme out?
