📋 About This Mod
I recommend to Install via Vortex mod manager, this is my first mod and in all honesty I wouldn't know another way to install.
It shouldn't cause any issues installing or removing mid playthroughs.

I pulled the animation file from the most recent version of the game to start from scratch, it's a not a modified version of the mod above.
This mod replaces the human female walk and run animations for body type 1 with the elven race animations, which are considered prettier. It also applies to races that inherit human animations. A simple cosmetic fix for players who dislike the default human female movement.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Simple fix for an annoying animation (100 endorsements)
- Uses the prettier elven animations, a popular choice
- Lightweight and does exactly what it says
⚠️ Cons
- Only affects body type 1, so other body types are left unchanged
- No screenshots or videos provided, so you can't preview the result
- May not be compatible with other animation mods that override the same files
For players who play female characters with body type 1 and find the default human walk/run animations ugly. If you want a quick cosmetic improvement without overhauling all animations, this is for you. Skip if you use body type 2 or prefer more comprehensive animation mods.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure to install this mod after any other animation mods to ensure it takes priority.
- If you use a mod manager, you can easily toggle this mod on/off to compare with the default animations.
- This mod only affects body type 1, so if you play a different body type, it won't work.
