hey,
I've just finished a biped that is weighted, rigged, modeled and compiled. I made a .biped tag and filled in the tabs with the correct file paths but when I try to put the biped in sapien, it says "OUT OF OBJECTS: cannot create hippy"

ps. can anyone help me with this animation graph thing? I've replace animations in other models before but have never made any overlays or replacements.

EDIT:
I'm also willing to put a lot of time in making all the required animations... i know there is a lot!

open your model animations and another, similar one by Bungie (marine, mb), tile vertically, and compare them side by side, to see what yours is missing. If you're not planning to arm the hippie, see an unarmed biped's animations tag to see what isn't required for an unarmed biped. Engineer, flood carrier, infection, and cortana i think are examples

I have a couple animations, do i need them all for the biped to work in-game? is It possible to change what is needed and what isn't? is it possible to make custom reactions? for example when he is approached by someone... play this animation.

I think you're exploring some new teritory. I suggest you look at the animations of the already existing characters, and note the differences

also, this should help:
