Extended Player Animations

”Extended Player Animations”, also formerly known as “Extended John Marston Animations”, is a mod dedicated to fix/improve/add all kinds of things related to in-game animations, hopefully enhancing the visual experience for the player.

When this mod first came out, its one and only purpose was to fix and improve John Marston’s in-game animations to make his moveset as unique and separate from Arthur’s moveset as possible, but as development of this mod went on and the less things there were to fix on John’s animations, the more I kept adding and fixing things outside of that purpose.

And now, this mod brings fixes and improvements to essentially everything and everyone in the game (animation wise), not only enhancing the experience when playing as Arthur or John, but also giving players less headaches when trying to play as NPCs, opening the opportunity of using unique NPC animations without running into too many issues, hopefully giving role-players more freedom.

This mod is still somewhat John oriented (and for good reason), but now it has a lot of cool extra stuff accompanying it.

It is recommend to click on the blue text to get a preview on some of the things in the list.
