I am interested in making a custom character generator like those seen in Soul Calibur 4 / Oblivion. Can anyone point me to any good tuts/resources for such a system? I am particularly interested in dynamic mesh deformations and skeletal systems. I really am curious to see how they are able to transfer animations between characters.

If a model hiarchy has the same bones as another model with animation. You can apply the other model's animation bone transforms to your model's bones.

In the case of Fall out 3, they use FaceGen. I'm also curious for other parts...

Yes, they use it in-game. I don't think you need the source. There is an SDK.
