Need Help with weapons

[1velocity]

I have modelled weapons in 3ds max. I want to import it to UDK with animation and everything . Please tell me step by step every thing

1. animate the weapon (when you dont know how you can animate stuff in 3d max, then just watch a video) just create any animation you like, but when you want one with ironsight, then you have to create a:

WeaponEquip=
WeaponFire=
WeaponPutDown=
WeaponZoomIdle=
WeaponZoomFire=
WeaponZoomIn=
WeaponZoomOut=

2. Export your weapon as a .fbx
3. import it as a skeletal mesh into UDK
4. Implement the weapon into your script:

Follow either:

My ironsight tutorial: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sUx4VYSh_RQ
or my basic custom weapon tutorial: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T3KvtBuWBto (2:56)

-place your .fbx into your content directory
-the settings for importing should be like this:
