📋 About This Mod
Hoamaii Animated Drinking: Wine & Beer In Tankards
WHY
Has anybody else noticed the terrible curse which has been afflicting Skyrim for years? In all taverns, houses and castles, tankards remain desperately empty, wenches go from table to table, carrying trays around in skimpy outfits with false promises of extinguishing their people's awful thirst...
Have you watched these poor bastards stare at the bottom of their parched tankards in silent melancholy?.. Have you ever tried to get a drink yourself and found yourself stupidly staring into nothingness?
Is this another unacceptable Thalmor Prohibition? Or is it just the ultimate affront to role-playing?!..
HOW
Put an end to that curse right now! Let wine and beer flow freely in each and every tankard in Skyrim, let the taverns' audience finally raise their glasses in joy and face the mountains weather with fire in their veins!
It won't make the Bards sing any better but after a few drinking animations, you won't mind them so much...
WHAT
Ahem... this is only a small replacer for the game's tankard animobjects and clutter.
It comes in two different versions. Wine. Or Beer.
Just another one of my "you worry too much about details" uploads. Actually part of a way bigger mod I've been working on and polishing for months. This is a tiny sample of the "polishing"...
Don't laugh... I've started adding soup in the "IdleEatSoup" animobject too. But I haven't decided what kind of soup yet...
PLEASE NOTE: The tankard's meshes and textures I used are Brumbek's from his Skyrim Meshes Improvement Mod (with his permission of course). Please endose his awesome work!..
Many thanks to Brodual and Nozi for making these videos. You're great, guys :)!

INSTALLATION
Use your Mod Manager - or do it manually if you'd rather mix with another clutter version.
No .esp to enable of course.
I strongly recommend that you install only one version (Beer or Wine) of the animobjects. There are actually 3 tankard animobjects in the Vanilla BSA. I have seen my animations change with only the animobjectDrinkingTankard in game while Fore only saw the animobjectTankard beig used in the Behavior files. Since we can't be entirely sure the game does not actually need all 3 of them at some point, I modified them all.
As for the clutter ve

With 2,357 endorsements and 39,191 downloads, it's a popular cosmetic enhancement for immersive players. Last updated in 2019, it remains a simple, effective way to add booze variety to your game.
