📋 About This Mod
weapon check idle animation
cmvajKXXdM0
I have created first-person idle animation for Skyrim.
This mod introduces new idle animations not only for unarmed stance, but also while holding various types of weapons.
This animation mod triggers random idle animations after 5 seconds of inactivity.
If it does not activate immediately, please don’t be alarmed—wait a moment and check again to see if the animation plays.
By moving away from the original static and monotonous feel, it allows players to enjoy a more vivid and immersive Skyrim experience.
The mod has been updated so that animations can now be triggered using a hotkey.
You no longer need to wait for the animation to play automatically. Instead, you can simply press your assigned hotkey to activate it instantly and conveniently.
In the MCM, go to the Weapon Check section to assign your preferred key. To prevent conflicts with the many default in-game key bindings, you can also set a modifier key.
By holding the modifier key and pressing your chosen hotkey, the animation will play.
Controller support is also available. Just like with the keyboard, once you assign your desired button, you can trigger the animation anytime with ease.
This hotkey-triggered feature was implemented in response to many user requests, allowing you to enjoy the animation more conveniently and exactly when you want.
Additionally, the mod is now fully compatible with all first-person mods. There is no need to ask about compatibility with other first-person mods, as it works seamlessly alongside them.
Below is an example screen showing the hotkey settings for the Weapon Check option in the MCM.
Please refer to it to set your preferred key, and enjoy a more immersive and lively Skyrim experience by playing the animations with ease.
The 1st-person Weapon Check Mod has been updated to version 1. 4

In this version, unarmed fist animations have been added, allowing a total of four different animations to be played.
Since unarmed fists don’t involve holding a weapon and previously felt somewhat plain,
I created this animation feature to enhance the experience. Instead of stopping at just one animation,
I produced additional variations so you can enjoy richer and more dynamic movements.
You can conveniently set a hotkey in the MCM to use the mod. While the animation is playing,
movement is disabled, so I recommend usi
