Decided to make bunch of idles for male miqo'te to have their tails upright and swaying with a little bit of ear wiggle as well.

!NO LONGER NEEDS IVCS TO FUNCTION!

Links for easier finding of IVCS here

You can get IVCS here though you'll need to follow the guide...

https://techhenzy.com/guide-about-ilusio-vitae-custom-skeleton/

Right here to get all that stuff done.

It no longer needs IVCS for ear wiggles but I'll keep the links here because the mod itself is still a good idea! Though the base idle does require it still...

I did additional testing so there's a special flip addition in the movement folder. Its not the prettiest but I thought it'd at least be fun to have.

P. S. If you want to help support the venue I own as well and also have access to all my mods on a discord channel feel free to come over to (HACKED ATM) DO NOTE YOU WILL HAVE TO VALIDATE YOUR NAME ON THE DISCORD IN ORDER TO SEE THE MOD LIST

  • Adds a subtle but noticeable personality boost to Male Miqo'te characters.

⚠️ Cons

  • Make a backup of the original animation files before replacing them, so you can revert if needed.
