Strike a Pose

Strike a Pose - Version 2. 1 By: Xiamara and Aleanne

Play NPC idle animations on your character.

SPECIAL NOTE: Before you download Strike a Pose, please be aware that a more advanced animation mod has now been made. I would recommend you check out Trollf's "Actors in Charge Mod." It has all the animations of Strike a Pose plus over 100 more. Also, it allows you to change facial expressions and gives you better control over NPC animations. Check it out here: http://tessource.net/files/file.php?id=6239">http://tessource.net/files/file.php?id=6239">http://tessource.net/files/file.php?id=6239 Just letting you know :)

IMPORTANT NOTE: To avoid bugs, please read the whole readme file, carefully before use. ======================================

====================================== 1. INTRODUCTION ====================================== This mod adds a gem that allows your character to choose various NPC idle animations in 3rd person when used. It also adds spells with these animations and animation rings for your companions to use. In addition, the script on the Altars of the Nine Divines has been changed so that your character will pray when the altars are activated. All animations are by Bethesda.

As these animations were originally for NPCs, and not for the player character, there are some bugs that can occur during use. These bugs are all easily fixable by in-game actions (such as talking to any NPC if you are stuck in an animation). To avoid problems, please read the whole readme file before using the mod. In particular, please pay attention to section 3. USE INSTRUCTIONS and section 4. KNOWN BUGS / ISSUES Q&A. Also, a help & bugfix page exists on the animation gem to help you in game if you run into a problem.
