DESCRIPTION

All melee weapons are covered. All unarmed weapons are covered. No exceptions.

^ dogshit movie btw

Every single stupid little animation, including the ones you never see, are covered between all of those weapons.

If you're new to modding, this is all you need.

If you've been following my mods for a while: some brand new animations, some totally remade animations (one-handed, namely), and some old animations. All collected with some bugs fixes.

Balance: all timings are the same. Every single one of them. The only exception is the Shishkebab equip/unequip animations, which were doubled in length. An optional file has been provided that restores vanilla timings to them, at the loss of the new details. Up to you if you want it.

If you need more details, there's a "What's Changed?" section that details this stuff, although you can basically assume you're getting the best possible package here.

Read the Requirements section. Scroll down just a little bit further...

WHAT'S CHANGED?

Hi. Maybe you're here because you used https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/79146" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Butcher Pete - Complete. Maybe you're here because you used https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/80277" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Wasteland Warrior. Maybe you're here because you used https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/86055" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Assume the Position. This section details what's changed from each mod.

... FROM https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/79146" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">BUTCHER PETE

Everything from https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/79146" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Butcher Pete was remade from scratch. All of it. I hated it all, and I didn't know what the hell I was doing. The difference should be pretty noticeable but, for good measure, here's before and after GIFs ("before" being from Butcher Pete, "after" being from this mod):

BEFORE

AFTER

As you can see, the weapon isn't held super close to the screen, which caused problems with some larger one-handed weapons. It also just, well, looks better.

Speaking of looking better, notice that the attack animations are now smoother and have less camera movement. This is a benefit, because melee in New Vegas mostly involves spamming the attack button:

BEFORE

There is one downside to this. In https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/79146" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Butcher Pete, each weapon was split into three "classes:" chopping, slashing, and blunt. Idles and equips were shared, but each class received unique regular and normal attacks, effectively tripling the workload. Moreover, although I tried to make attacks work for each class, it didn't pan out in practice--what looked good for the Chopper didn't always look good for the Machete, for example. As such, I removed the "class" idea from the attacks and standardized them. The benefit: I was able to produce these much quicker at a much higher quality. Each "class" still has a unique normal attack for its moveset, but that's about it. Power attacks are largely shared, with the exception that I was now able to make the vanilla unique attacks look, well, more unique.

Power attacks are also now smoother, bug-free (the blunt power attack in https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/79146" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Butcher Pete was totally busted), and respect their original animation design more. Check it out:

As for the rest, you should see the below video:

It was always my intention to make equip and unequip animations more unique, too, and now I have, as you can see in the video. You can also see that the Shishkebab has finally made its way into the collection! The Katana and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AX9n67GetTU&feature=y... rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Ripper (click link, I forgot to showcase it) are in here now, too, with the Katana featuring its own bespoke animation set.

Nothing has changed here, but things have been added. For the old animations, this showcase still works fine:

But now, there's new stuff! Full support has been added for all Power Fist-type weapons (including the Displacer, Ballisitic, and Zap Gloves), the Industrial Hand, and the Bear-Trap Fist Gauntlet. Oh! And, as a bonus, the Scientist Glove has now been fixed and has its own unique attack animation. Take a look:
