You have seperate the main mesh into objects that will move, like the main body, then if you want the bolt to move make that seperate, then parent it to the main body. Then you export,etc, you should read tutorials on that in the bf2editor forums. http://bfeditor.gotfrag.com/forums/
Then you need to make animations export them and link them to the window to get the parts moving. Go to the bf2 editor forums, loads of information if you search.
