Animation Instances Reference Table – Arma Reforger

Below tables provide reference of animations and export profiles which should be used when exporting TXA animations from Blender.

Sample New Weapon (download link) is used here as a reference, so not all animations are present - like Finger_trigger_in or Sight. In such a case, animations of AK74 are provided to give some guidance on what should be filled in.
