Question Gravity Question

im kind of new to lightwave, i have a question about lightwave's gravity.
like if you have a skipping rope on the ground and you lift each handle it doesn't raise like a log, it droops down and sways due to gravity, or even hair, or a scarf... my actual intention for it is for an old man, im creating a character and when his teeth come out i want the lips to wave around and sag. do you have to keyframe every little movement in or is there a way to do this? and if so are there tutorials on it? i've looked but i cant find out that explains what i want.

Hmm,,, ok... MD can do it i think... as i have seen the breast movement tutorial somewhere on the net. MD is the way to go if you dont want to keyframe the whole thing.

Hehe,,, they are there only called MD_Controller .. or something like that. MD is a standard with LW. Under Scene>Dynamincs>... should find it there. IF you dont then try to reload the .p file or check your installation.
