📋 About This Mod
Update 15/09/2021
Changes all the Animations to a different type which should make them look less "ridged" and more natural.
What does it Animate?
in the base game the maize assets I have animated occur around 2,029 times, which means with the addition of these slight animations, your immersion should go up a bit more hopefully.
I have only animated the purely visual Maize, which the player can do nothing with, to avoid causing problems with the Maize that can be harvested. their is also other huge clumps of Maize, such as the ones used in good springs which have not been animated, due to the single assets having like 60 individual maize stems, which would look awesome to be animated, but it would take a huge amount of time to Animate. I have chosen specific Maize plants to animate and some I did not for logical reasons (the assets I didn't animate have around 220 asset uses listed in the GECK, whereas the ones I did have a combined 2,029 occurrences.).
