Introduction
CfgMoves is the nerve center of all skeletal character animation. The animation of human characters that is - not the simple, procedural animation of objects (e.g. raising/lowering a barrier, opening/closing of an aircraft canopy). CfgMoves has two major sections: Actions and States.
Actions
It is where the character animation state machine is set up. It's a bit confusing that BIS called the animation state handler "Actions", and the actions are called "States", but this is what it is. What this thing does, is configure all the possible animation states (e.g. standing upright with a rifle, kneeling with a pistol, parachuting), and define for each of them which animations can be played in and from that given state. For instance, from the kneeling with a pistol state (PistolKneelActions), you cannot directly go into crawling forward on your stomach with a rifle (even if you have a rifle). First you would have to holster the pistol and grab your rifle, then lie down, or viceversa. Similarly, if you're prone (whether unarmed, or armed with a pistol or rifle), you cannot salute - first you'd have to stand up. What animation can or cannot be played, in what situation, is set up here in Actions. Player input (key presses, clicks) are then directed to this state machine, which interprets them and decides what action/animation the avatar will perform next, according to these rules. Same rules apply to AI players.
States
In this section, each animation file (RTM) has a corresponding entry. Animation properties, such as playback speed, interpolation rules, blending times, collision shapes to use during animation, etc.., are configured here. These animations are the ones referenced in the Actions section above. While Actions represents a complex graph, States is more like a list of items, even though some rules are also set up here (see the ConnectTo[] and InterpolateTo[] properties).
CfgGestures is similar to States, it holds the bone-masked or layered animations introduced in ArmAII. Welcome to reloading-while-running.
A
access
Integer
Description: See CfgVehicles_Config_Reference#access
access = 3;
actions
String
Description: Sets the action class/group to which this state belongs to.
actions = "PistolStandActionsRunR"; actions = "RifleStandActions"; actions = "InjuredManActionsnon_norot"; actions = "SitActions";
aiming
String
Description: This property references BlendAnims class entries to use when aiming up/down. These are sets of named selections, with weights associated to them, defining how much should the bodyparts move while aiming.
Notice how for instance aimingDefault[] sets up increasing weights for bones: Spine (0.3), Spine1 (0.4), Spine2 (0.5), Spine3/Head/Neck (0.6}, Shoulders/Upper Arms (0.8) and finally 1 for forearms, hands and weapons. This makes for a smooth arching of the body while aiming.
aiming = "empty"; aiming = "aimingDefault"; aiming = "aimingNo"; aiming = "aimingCivil"; aiming = "aimingLying"; aiming = "aimingPistol"; aiming = "aimingLauncher";
aimingDefault[]
Array
Description: BlendAnims array, see CfgMoves_Config_Reference#aiming above.
aimingDefault[] = {"head", 0.6, "neck1", 0.6, "neck", 0.6, "weapon", 1, "launcher", 1, "LeftShoulder", 0.8, "LeftArm", 0.8, "LeftArmRoll", 1, "LeftForeArm", 1, "LeftForeArmRoll", 1, "LeftHand", 1, "LeftHandRing", 1, "LeftHandPinky1", 1, "LeftHandPinky2", 1, "LeftHandPinky3", 1, "LeftHandRing1", 1, "LeftHandRing2", 1, "LeftHandRing3", 1, "LeftHandMiddle1", 1, "LeftHandMiddle2", 1, "LeftHandMiddle3", 1, "LeftHandIndex1", 1, "LeftHandIndex2", 1, "LeftHandIndex3", 1, "LeftHandThumb1", 1, "LeftHandThumb2", 1, "LeftHandThumb3", 1, "RightShoulder", 0.8, "RightArm", 0.8, "RightArmRoll", 1, "RightForeArm", 1, "RightForeArmRoll", 1, "RightHand", 1, "RightHandRing", 1, "RightHandPinky1", 1, "RightHandPinky2", 1, "RightHandPinky3", 1, "RightHandRing1", 1, "RightHandRing2", 1, "RightHandRing3", 1, "RightHandMiddle1", 1, "RightHandMiddle2", 1, "RightHandMiddle3", 1, "RightHandIndex1", 1, "RightHandIndex2", 1, "RightHandIndex3", 1, "RightHandThumb1", 1, "RightHandThumb2", 1, "RightHandThumb3", 1, "Spine", 0.3, "Spine1", 0.4, "Spine2", 0.5, "Spine3", 0.6}; aimingDefault[] = {};
aimingNo[]
Array
Description: BlendAnims array, see CfgMoves_Config_Reference#aiming above.
aimingNo[] = {};
aimPrecision
Float
Description: Probably goes into accuracy calculations when firing a weapon; the higher the value, the less accurate aiming becomes. Wounded >1, firing upright animations are mostly 1, kneeling is 0.5, and prone values are even lower.
aimPrecision = 5; aimPrecision = 2; aimPrecision = 1; aimPrecision = 0.5; aimPrecision = 0.3; aimPrecision = 0.15;
B

binocOn
String
Description:
binocOn = ""; //No binocs while lying on the ground injured binocOn = "AwopPknlMstpSoptWbinDnon_rfl"; binocOn = "AwopPercMstpSoptWbinDnon_rfl"; binocOn = "AwopPknlMstpSoptWbinDnon_pst"; binocOn = "AwopPpneMstpSoptWbinDnon_rfl";
boundingSphere
Float / Boolean
Description: Probably obsolescent, used for character collision detection. For more accurate collision models use collisionShape & Co. Still used in ArmAII for cutscene animations. Sphere collision probably much cheaper than anything else.
boundingSphere = true; boundingSphere = 1; boundingSphere = 1.5; boundingSphere = 8; boundingSphere = 35;
C
CanNotMove
String
Description: Found in Actions.
CanNotMove = "AmovPpneMstpSrasWrflDnon";

collisionShapeSafe
String
Description:
collisionShapeSafe = "ca\Anims\Characters\data\Geom\Sdr\sbeh45l_safe_geom.p3d";
collisionVertexPattern[]
Array
Description: Possibly some internal requirement of the collision detection algorithm. The strings represent individual vertices (named selections in the P3D).
collisionVertexPattern[] = {"1a","2a","3a","4a","5a","6a","7a","8a","1c","2c"}; collisionVertexPattern[] = {"1a", "2a", "3a", "4a", "5a", "6a", "7a", "8a", "9a", "10a", "11a", "12a", "13a", "14a", "15a", "16a", "17a", "18a", "19a", "20a", "21a", "22a", "23a", "24a", "25a", "26a", "27a", "28a", "29a", "30a", "31a", "32a", "33a", "34a", "1c", "2c", "3c", "4c", "5c", "6c", "7c", "8c"};

//AmovPercMstpSlowWrflDnon disableWeapons = false; disableWeaponsLong = true;
disableWeaponsLong = 1;
down
String
Description: Found in Actions, tells what animation to play when hitting the "Go prone" key.
//class RifleBaseStandActions down = "AmovPpneMstpSrasWrflDnon"; //class RifleProneActions down = "AmovPercMstpSrasWrflDnon"; //??
down = "LadderRifleDownLoop";
duty
Float
Description: Duty used to mean some mandatory states/actions the character had to reach, before being able to perform a certain animation. Not sure about what this does in ArmA anymore, if anything.
//OFP config #define RunDuty -0.5 #define WalkDuty -0.7 #define RestDuty -1 #define CrawlDuty -0.0 #define SprintDuty 0.6
duty = -1; duty = -0.7; duty = -0.5; duty = -0.4; duty = 0.1; duty = 0.2; duty = 0.25; duty = 0.3; duty = 0.4; duty = 0.5; duty = 0.6; duty = 2;

enableMissile = 1;
enableOptics
Boolean
Description: Found in States, enables/disables looking down the weapon sights.
enableOptics = 1;

equivalentTo = "";
class AdthPercMstpSrasWrflDnon_1 : AdthPercMstpSlowWrflDnon_1 { file = "\ca\Anims\Characters\data\Anim\Sdr\Dth\Erc\stp\ras\Rfl\AdthPercMstpSrasWrflDnon_1"; speed = 0.72; equivalentTo = "AdthPercMstpSrasWrflDnon_1"; ... };

fast..
String
Description: Found in Actions, walk.. defines the walking animations, slow.. defines the running/jogging and fast.. the sprinting animations. The suffixes mean the following: B (backward), F (forward), L (left strafe), R (right strafe) and a combination of these: RF (45 deg. strafe), RB (135 deg. strafe), LB (225 deg. strafe) and LF (315 deg. strafe).
fastB = "AswmPercMstpSnonWnonDnon"; fastB = "AmovPercMrunSrasWrflDb";

G
getInCar
String
Description: getInCar and getOutCar are found in Actions; they define what animations to call when getting into/out of a car. Similar to getInTank/getOutTank.
None of these are really used in the ArmAII config anymore (one exception: class LauncherKneelActions). Instead, getInHigh, -Medium and -Low are used with their respective getOuts. Assigning the different getIn actions for each vehicle is done in CfgVehicles.
getInAction = "GetInCar"; //CfgVehicles
getInCar = "AmovPknlMstpSrasWrflDnon";
GetInHigh
String
Description: See getInCar.
GetInHigh = "AmovPercMstpSnonWnonDnon_AcrgPknlMstpSnonWnonDnon_getInHigh";

getOutTank = "AmovPknlMstpSrasWrflDnon";
H
handGunOn
String
Description: Found in Actions, points to the animation to transition to, when the character draws it's pistol. It is not the transition animation itself, where the character brings up the pistol (and puts away his rifle/launcher if he had any), but the end result of that: character standing, aiming with the pistol.
handGunOn = "AmovPercMstpSrasWpstDnon"; //class RifleBaseLowStandActions
handGunOn = "AmovPpneMstpSrasWrflDnon";
hasCollShapeSafe
Boolean
Description:
hasCollShapeSafe = 0;
head
String
Description: Found in States, references BlendAnims class entries. Permits/forbids the character to rotate his head freely. Similar in functionality to aiming.

Array
Description: Found in class BlendAnims, defines a set of bones, with weights associated to each of them.
headDefault[] = {"head", 1, "neck1", 0.5, "neck", 0.5};
headDefault[] = {};
headNo[]
Array
Description: Found in class BlendAnims, always an empty array. Serves for disabling free head movement (independent of the RTM animation).
headNo[] = {};
I
interpolateFrom[]
Array
Description: Found in States, used together with interpolateTo for setting up two-way interpolation rules. interpolateFrom[] however, seems to have fallen in disuse.
interpolateFrom[] = {"TestSurrender",0.9,"AdthPercMstpSlowWrflDnon_1",0.9};
interpolateTo[]
Array
Description: Found in States; defines which animations can interrupt the current one, and how fast blending between the two should be. Typically, animations will play to the end, then another animation will be played. Sometimes though, it's important to be able to just cut the current animation short, and immediately change to a different animation. A good example would be death animations: if the character is half way through "eating a kebab" animation and the kebab explodes in his face, he won't continue munching. Instead he will play a death animation and fall to the ground right away. To make the cut between the two animation less visually jarring, a couple of frames of transition/interpolation is provided, the length of which is what the numerical values stand for.
interpolateTo[] = {"AinvPknlMstpSlayWrflDnon",0.01,"AinvPknlMstpSlayWrflDnon_1",0.01,"AinvPknlMstpSnonWnonDnon_1",0.01,"AinvPknlMstpSnonWnonDnon_2",0.01,"AinvPknlMstpSnonWnonDnon_3",0.01,"AinvPknlMstpSnonWnonDnon_4",0.01,"AdthPknlMstpSnonWnonDnon_inventory",0.1};
interpolateWith[]
Array
Description: Found in States, disused.

interpolationRestart
Boolean
Description: Found in States, true mostly for transition animations.
interpolationRestart = false; //Default interpolationRestart = true; //DefaultDie interpolationRestart = 2;
interpolationSpeed
Float
Description: Found in States.
interpolationSpeed = 200; //AidlPercMstpSrasWrflDnon_aiming01, AdthPercMstpSrasWrflDnon_rS0 interpolationSpeed = 30.5; //AmovPercMstpSlowWrflDnon_player_idleSteady01 interpolationSpeed = 6; //Default interpolationSpeed = 0.5; //AmovPknlMstpSrasWrflDnon_AmovPercMsprSrasWrflDf_2 interpolationSpeed = 0.1; //AinjPfalMstpSnonWrflDnon_carried_Up
J

ladderOffBottom
String
Description: Found in States, defines what animation to switch to when letting go of the ladder, having reached the bottom of it.

ladderOnDown = "LadderRifleOn";
ladderOnUp
String
Description: Found in States, defines what animation to switch to when getting onto the top of the ladder.
ladderOnUp = "LadderRifleOn";
leaning
String
Description: Found in both Actions and States, references BlendAnims class entries. Defines how much each bone/bodypart should be influenced when leaning. Leaning, similar to aiming, is not an animation played back from a file. It's procedural, if you will, and so needs extra setting up in the config to look it's best.
leaning = "leaningDefault"; //Default leaning = "aimingLying"; //AmovPpneMstpSrasWrflDnon_injured leaning = "empty"; //class AmovPpneMrunSlowWrflDf - disables leaning while prone
leaningCorrectionAngleBeg
Float
Description: Not used in ArmAII, appearing only once in ArmAI config, where both leaningCorrectionAngleBeg and leaningCorrectionAngleEnd are zero.
leaningCorrectionAngleBeg = 0; leaningCorrectionAngleEnd = 0;
leaningFactorBeg
Float
Description: Found in States, leaningFactorBeg sets how much influence leaning has at the start of an animation while leaningFactorEnd takes care of the end. If the two values differ, leaning is blended in or out during the animation.
leaningFactorBeg = 1; //StandBase leaningFactorEnd = 1;
leaningFactorBeg = 0; //SprintBaseDf leaningFactorEnd = 0;
leaningFactorBeg = 0.5; //AmovPknlMstpSrasWlnrDnon - limited (half) leaning with launcher leaningFactorEnd = 0.5;
leaningFactorBeg = 0.75; //AmovPercMwlkSlowWrflDf - limited leaning while walking with rifle raised leaningFactorEnd = 0.75;
leaningFactorBeg = 1; //amovpercmstpsraswrfldnon_amovpercmstpsraswlnrdnon leaningFactorEnd = 0.5;
leaningFactorBeg = 1; //AmovPercMstpSrasWrflDnon_AmovPpneMstpSrasWrflDnon leaningFactorEnd = 0; // -transition betwen a state with full leaning to one where leaning is forbidden-
leaningFactorEnd
Float
Description: See above.
leaningFactorEnd = 0.75;
leaningFactorZeroPoint
Float
Description: Appears only once in both ArmAI/II, no variation across States or Actions.
leaningFactorZeroPoint = -1;
leanLRot
Float
Description: Found in Actions, sets the amount of lean possible, the angle of leaning. With a value of 1, the character will lean about 70 degrees off vertical, looking like it just broke it's back, so the more reasonable amount to lean is about half of that. Doctor's orders.
leanLRot = 0; //NoActions, RifleProneActions leanLRot = 0.5; //RifleBaseLowStandActions leanLRot = 0.57; //CivilStandActions
leanLShift
Float
Description: Found in Actions. In addition to tilting the upper body during leaning, it's also possible to move it into the lean. Typical values are very small, anything else will produce excessive deformations of the model.
leanLShift = 0; //class RifleProneActions leanLShift = 0.01; //class RifleBaseLowStandActions leanLShift = 0.07; //class CivilStandActions
leanRRot
Float
Description: See leanLRot.
leanRRot = 0.57;
leanRShift
Float
Description: See leanLShift.
leanRShift = 0.01;
leftHandIKBeg
Boolean
Description: Found in States, appeared in ArmAI, complemented/superseeded in ArmAII by leftHandIKCurve[]. These properties set whether at the beginning and end of the animation, IKs for both arms are enabled or not. left/right-HandIKCurve[] allows for a more complex and detailed control of FK/IK blending.
Typical uses: leftHandIKBeg = true; leftHandIKCurve[] = {1}; leftHandIKEnd = true;
leftHandIKBeg = false; leftHandIKCurve[] = {}; leftHandIKEnd = false;
leftHandIKBeg = false; leftHandIKCurve[] = {0, 1, 0.075, 0, 0.725, 0, 0.8, 1}; leftHandIKEnd = false;
leftHandIKBeg = false; leftHandIKCurve[] = {0.05, 1, 0.125, 0, 0.6, 0, 0.675, 1}; leftHandIKEnd = true;
leftHandIKEnd
Boolean
Description: See above.
leftHandIKEnd = 0;
leftHandIKCurve
Array
Description:
As the name suggests, this array describes the curve controlling FK/IK blending on the left arm.
Every pair of values describe a 2D point, with the first number representing time (horizontal) and the second being the weight (vertical).
Time ranges from 0-1, where 0 is animation start, 0.5 is half way, and 1 the end. Weight also ranges from 0-1, where 0 means animation is taken from RTM file (FK) and IK is disabled, 0.6 meaning a 40% blend of FK and 60% IK, and 1 is 100% IK.
Let me interpret the last example below (the long one). The curve has 4 points [0, 1], [0.05, 0], [0.95, 0] and [1, 1]. When the animation starts playing, the IK takes full effect, but is gradually disabled by point #2. It stays disabled until point #3 towards the end, when it's weight starts climbing again. At the end, at point #4, the IK is fully on again, overriding all FK.
leftHandIKCurve[] = {}; //IK OFF. leftHandIKCurve[] = {1}; //IK fully ON. leftHandIKCurve[] = {0.1, 1, 0.15, 0}; //IK fully ON one-tenth into the animation, but disabled soon afterwards. leftHandIKCurve[] = {0, 1, 0.05, 0, 0.95, 0, 1, 1}; //IK ON at start, but soon disabled. Re-enabled towards the end.
legs
String
Description: Found in States, references BlendAnims class entries. Used for deforming the character on sloping surfaces (hillside, stairs, etc..). Most of the RTM animations have been recorded in a motion capture studio, on a perfectly flat floor. When standing on a slope, the character would normally have one foot sinking into the ground, while the other would be hanging in the air. So BIS devised this system for deforming the bodyparts that have contact with the ground. When standing upright, it's just the legs. When prone, it's most, if not the whole body. Like everything else in BlendAnims, it's a list of bones, with weights (amount of influence) associated.
legs = "legsDefault"; //Deafault legs = "legsNo"; //DefaultDie legs = "legsLyingAiming"; //AmovPpneMstpSrasWrflDnon_injured legs = "Wholebody"; //AmovPpneMstpSnonWnonDnon legs = "empty"; //HaloFreeFall_non

Namespace of anim classes and files
A...P...M...S...W...D[_A...P...M...S...W...D][_Comment]
A: Description of the animation type, ie: mov for movement, cts for cutscene
P: Stance: erc for erected, knl for kneel, pne for prone
M: Speed of animation: stp for stopped, wlk for walk, run for runnin, eva for evasive
S: Weapon holding: low for lowered, ras for raised
W: Weapon: non for unarmed, pst for pistol, lnr for launcher, rfl for rifle.
D: Direction of movement: non for no direction, f for forward, etc.
If there is a second movement definition named [_A...P...M...S...W...D] after the first one, the animation is a transition from the first animation to the second.
[_Comment]: additional comments, if required
Example:
AmovPpneMstpSnonWnonDnon
means: Movement - Prone - Stopped - civil (no weapon) - no direction (due to being static)
