It's... kind of complicated but not really difficult if you know what you're doing. The way the animations work is a series of steps. When you fire the script, it checks a specific line in animations.2da. This then checks the name of the animation - in this case, good - and it goes looking for the animation based on that name. First it checks the model, then if it can't find that (most models don't have special animations) it checks the supermodel, and then the supermodel's supermodel, and so on down the chain. Once it finds the animation it plays it, and so long as the animation you want to play is at the top of the chain, it's fine. The upshot is you can add an animation to any model (or supermodel) and so long as it's at the top of the chain and you link it to the one of the standard supermodels, all the other animations will be unaffected and play as they're supposed to. So, you want to add the good animation to Juhani, but under a different name - one that can already be scripted. There are two options here: you can either add it to a model, or you can add it to a supermodel. You said you're using a UTC, so I assume she's going to be wearing some specific item, and you only actually need that model... but I'm not sure if that will be easier because the importing method requires a bit of work in 3ds Max and involves some further complications. The other option is to simply hex edit the model - S_Male02 in this case - and change good to whatever you want to use. But when you're replacing something through hex editing you have to keep the number of characters the same... or I guess you could convert it to ASCII, edit the ASCII in Notepad, and then convert it back through MDLOps. There are a number of options here. If this sounds like too much work I won't blame you, but if you're interested in doing it I can provide some more specific details. I do this sort of thing all the time and it's not difficult, just kind of time consuming, and the best method to use is very situational.
