You can apply multiple object in terms of looks, basically combine all the Models into 1 and name it as Model_1. If you want it to the separated, I dont know if parenting the models to Model_1 will work, but you can try

You need a Model_1, that will be the barrel of the Minigun. You will also need a Minigun Audioclip for the sound it makes when spinning

The animation of the barrel is dependant on how you set the .dat file as well. Firstly, gun Action type should be set to Minigun.

For setting up in Unity, the gun has to be modelled into 2 separate meshes, one for the main model and the other the barrel you want it to rotate. Despite it being Model_0 and Model_1, do make sure they fall under the same LOD Group

Thankyou, so that is the answer but a little bit disappointed, I thought we can change the rotate animations to a customize animation to achieve a more decent gun mechanical animation, now I know it can't be achieve...but thanyou anyway, solved this problem
