📋 About This Mod
Description
With this mod you can grab, modify and apply a pose to an actor (actually only humans, but potentially creatures too) for screenshot purposes,I uploaded a couple of videos under Video tab to show how it works. You can modify the rotation of every bone in the skeleton and then save the result on a file. Note that the file you generate works only for this mod, it's not a KF file. However, you can easily copy these files out and send them to your friends, and they will have your poses. Or you could still convert them to something else, eventually.
It provides also few helpful tools for screenshoots, like changing the Field of View, colour the screen, apply a picture as frame.
Keys
In general, making poses in a software like Blender is not easy, it takes some time to be accustomed. Doing it in game through this mod maybe can give a better perception of how the pose really appears inside the whole environment, but on the other hand it requires a good amount of hotkeys to use the tools (which, by the way, can all be changed via MCM). I did my best to keep things easy but the subject "poses" is not easy per se.
- Menu Key (default ALT)
If you press it, the main menu with icons will come out on the bottom of the screen. If you press it again, the menu will go away.
- Edit Key (default NumPad Enter)
Even if you can browse through the icons in the menu, you won't be able to select any option nor interact with the mod (with the exception of FEEL, see below) if you're not in EDIT MODE. To go in EDIT MODE, press the Edit Key: the mod will kick you in third person, the game will freeze and the fly cam will be enabled (TFC 1). At this point, you'll be able to move the camera with WASD, and in the meantime you'll be able to interact with all the options in the mod menu. To go out from the EDIT MODE, just press the Edit Key again. CAREFUL: everytime you go out from EDIT MODE, the pose you didn't save will be erased!
- Arrow Keys
They are the main way to browse through the options.
>>> If you are on the icon menu, Left / Right will allow to browse through the various icons.
>>> If you want to select an option, you can press either Up or Down arrow
>>> If the option is a one-time one, then it will be selected. If it has other sub options, then a textual Sub Menu will appear over the icons.
>>> When the Sub Menu is open, you can browse through it using the Up / Down arrows
>>> To select an option on the Sub Menu, you can press Left / Right
>>> To quit the S
