You can also check out the
spellcasting duel code.
You will also need some knowledge in
Jazz Scripts. Jazz Scripts are much easier and it's to make two Sims play talk or fight or whatever, you will need to create a Jazz Script if you're going to create a new interaction.
Smooth Jazz is the software used to make and edit Jazz Scripts. Check out the tutorials for Jazz Script and you can ask me too as I have some experience with it.
If however instead of creating new interaction you just replace the animation for EA martial arts with Sims Medieval animations then you don't need a script mod or (probably) a Jazz Script.
I think it's better to create a new interaction though. Because sword fighting just doesn't work with Sim fu, it would feel odd but initially you can try it out this way as it's simpler before advancing to a new interaction with scripting to see how it looks.
One more problem is the swords. Animations with a prop attached to the body can be a bit hard to do I believe. I ran into many problems when trying with my
Enhanced Witches mod and failed to do it. Luckily the
Jazz Script EA made adjusted on it's own with my converted child animations so I didn't have to add the wand with my animations, the script figured out that a wand needs to be added. But that won't be the case with your mod but I think adding a prop will be simpler in your mod compared to the Enhanced Witches mod because the
sword is not an
inventory object like
wand was. One of the big problem with the wand was that the game uses the same file for the wand in the world and the wand on hand and that made things more complicated.
I think first thing you need to do is to download the
animation player mod . And then
extract the animation from Sims Medieval. Then see if the animation plays with the
animation player. Let us know how it went.
Edit:- Check out
this thread for more info about smooth Jazz. And I think the
Smooth Jazz on this
page is the updated one. Which I just found out today so I learnt something new today. And I'm going to test it out now.
