VCMI use different frame groups for 2-HEX attack.
        VCMI_2HEX_UP = 40,
        VCMI_2HEX_FRONT = 41,
        VCMI_2HEX_DOWN = 42

It is recommended to alter animation to use these indexes.

However, fallback option for 2-HEX attack should be done in a way similar to cast animation.

Wow, it worked : D

However there's a new issue, now cyclopes use this animation every time when they attack, not only when they hit 2 units.

By the way, are there other frame groups used by VCMI?

Here is complete list:
    enum EAnimType // list of creature animations, numbers were taken from def files
    {
        MOVING=0,
        MOUSEON=1,
        HOLDING=2,
        HITTED=3,
        DEFENCE=4,
        DEATH=5,
        DEATH_RANGED=6,
        TURN_L=7,
        TURN_R=8, //same
        //TURN_L2=9, //identical to previous?
        //TURN_R2=10,
        ATTACK_UP=11,
        ATTACK_FRONT=12,
        ATTACK_DOWN=13,
        SHOOT_UP=14,
        SHOOT_FRONT=15,
        SHOOT_DOWN=16,
        CAST_UP=17,
        CAST_FRONT=18,
        CAST_DOWN=19,
        MOVE_START=20,
        MOVE_END=21,

        DEAD = 22, // new group, used to show dead stacks. If empty - last frame from "DEATH" will be copied here
        DEAD_RANGED = 23, // new group, used to show dead stacks (if DEATH_RANGED was used). If empty - last frame from "DEATH_RANGED" will be copied here

        VCMI_CAST_UP = 30,
        VCMI_CAST_FRONT = 31,
        VCMI_CAST_DOWN = 32,
        VCMI_2HEX_UP = 40,
        VCMI_2HEX_FRONT = 41,
        VCMI_2HEX_DOWN = 42
    };
