📋 About This Mod
QwftRC-M5jM
If characters fall down a lot in your game sessions, particularly if you're using mods like Awesome Crippling Effects 2, you may have noticed that the vanilla animations for standing back up look like fresh ass. I have edited those animations so that they don't look as ugly. The animations are also shorter, so you (and all other humans) will stand back up and get back into the action faster.
Give my Sliding, Rolling, and Diving Mod some love, will ya? And download Awesome Crippling Effects 2 and Awesome Staggering while you're at it!
A cosmetic animation mod that replaces the knockdown stand-up animations in Starfield with smoother, more natural movements. With over 1,200 endorsements and half a million downloads, it's a popular quality-of-life improvement for players tired of the default clunky get-up animation.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge community trust: 1,219 endorsements and over 510k downloads show it's a go-to fix.
- Simple quality-of-life improvement—no more cringing every time you get knocked down.
- Works for both player and NPCs, so the whole world feels more polished.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in December 2023—might not be compatible with the latest Starfield patches.
- Only affects knockdown stand-up animations; other get-up animations (like from sitting) remain unchanged.
For Starfield players who notice and dislike the janky stand-up animation after being knocked down. If you're a roleplayer or someone who values immersion, this is a must-have. Skip if you don't care about animation polish or want gameplay changes—this is purely cosmetic.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since this mod replaces animation files, make sure to place it in your Data folder or use a mod manager like Vortex to avoid conflicts.
- If you use other animation mods, check load order—this one should typically override base animations but not conflict with other replacers.
- After installing, test by getting knocked down in combat to see the new animation; if it doesn't work, verify the file paths match your game version.
