📋 About This Mod
It has come to my attention that a few Creatures didn't enter photomode and just continued it's idle animation.
That means it wouldn't freeze in it's animation during the fight when entering Photomode and made it not being able to pose if you are transformed.
!This mod fixes it!
Currently fixes Cloaker, Spectator, Elder Brain, Mimic, Dragon Skeletal (Ansur), Brewer (Thisobald Thorm) and Surgeon (Malus Thorm)
If you find others that don't enter Photo Mode properly let me know.
Before:
Note for the Transform
You will have to use mods like Strike a Pose or The Urge to Pose - Slayer for any Poses to show up since there are none by default
Compatabillity
Shouldn't cause any issues. It just adds a small bit of code.
Thanks Kikyo for making me aware of this and testing if this fix worked.
Thanks Rakor For telling me the Spectator had the same problem.
Thanks Raidiki For telling me the mimic had the same problem.
