Merging two animations units.

[Sellenisko]

How can I merge two models? Example how to add rider to something, like normal standing unit on the horse? I am trying to add one bird to the shoulder of another unit...But I have no idea how to do it. Someone can help?

you can, Either Reanimate it after some geomerge
or Use Matrix Eater (by Retera) to do it..

or Rattach bone for them with some Model's animation

Rider with Sword: Knight/Undead Arthas
Rider with Magic: Archmage/Malfurion
Rider with Archer: Centaur Archer/Reanimate Yourself (Or you can Use My Archer Rider/Banshee Rider)
Rider with Throwing Hammer: Thrall
Rider with Spear: Need to Reanimate
Rider with Lance: Himperion has a Lancer with Poking Animation

If you're Planning to make a Reanimate go and get the Mount/Horse's animation and reanimate the Rider, It would Be Easier like that

Well yeah, i know how to do this. To attach rider to the bones of existing animations. But how can I merge two model keeping both animations? I need to add bird to the shoulder of one of mine models... But It seems like making new animations would be easier :/
