Additional Expressions Project V2 – Addon for Screen Archer Menu

TL;DR:You can get Screen Archer Menu from Maxie's Mirthful Modding Mansion on Discord

HOW TO USE: When you first install Screen Archer Menu, you have to open the console and type in "sm" to open the menu. After you open it once, you can set a custom hotkey in the options to open the menu using a hotkey. To load emotions, go into the Expressions tab and press "E" to load custom emotions.

Please consider Endorsing if you like the mod.

Additional Expressions Project V2 is the next iteration of my old expression addon, originally made for Poser Hotkeys Plus. V1 added around 80 extra facial expressions you could quickly cycle through for screenshots. Unfortunately, Poser Hotkeys Plus is no longer being updated and has become a hassle to get running.

Most people have now moved over to Photo Mode, which absolutely works, but personally I’ve never liked how slow and clunky expression selection feels there.

I recently discovered Screen Archer Menu by Maxie. And in my opinion, it’s the best screenshotting tool for Skyrim out there. It has camera controls, lighting tools, pose adjustments, expression editing, teleportation & scene tools and a lot more.


What this mod does:

Additional Expressions Project V2 adds new ready-made emotions you can cycle through directly inside Screen Archer Menu. They are designed for quick screenshot workflow — no digging through phonemes or hand-building expressions from scratch.

AHEGAO – 24 expressions (Some are compatible with Halo's HDT Tongues).

ANGER – 24 expressions

CONFUSION – 24 expressions

FEAR – 24 expressions

HAPPINESS – 24 expressions

PAIN – 18 expressions

SADNESS – 24 expressions

SURPRISE – 24 expressions

This is meant for people who just want to click through emotions and shoot instead of spending five minutes tuning sliders every time.
Please note that Screen Archer Menu does not replace or conflict with Photo Mode. But in my opinion it's better if you like to tweak your characters a lot... so if that's you, then I highly recommend checking it out.
🤖 AI-enhanced — based on mod data

Additional Expressions Project V2 is an addon for Screen Archer Menu that adds 186 ready-made facial expressions across 8 emotion categories for quick screenshot workflow in Skyrim. It replaces the outdated Poser Hotkeys Plus addon, offering a faster alternative to Photo Mode's expression selection. With 104 endorsements and recent updates, it's a niche tool for screenshot enthusiasts.

✨ Key Features

Adds 186 ready-made facial expressions across 8 emotion categories (Ahegao, Anger, Confusion, Fear, Happiness, Pain, Sadness, Surprise).
Designed for quick screenshot workflow—no need to build expressions from scratch.
Ahegao expressions are partially compatible with Halo's HDT Tongues.
Integrates directly into Screen Archer Menu's Expressions tab.
Requires Screen Archer Menu, available from Maxie's Mirthful Modding Mansion on Discord.

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Massive expression pack—186 expressions means you'll never run out of faces for your screenshots.
  • Built for speed: cycle through emotions without digging through phonemes, perfect for impatient photographers.
  • Community-tested (104 endorsements) and actively maintained (updated January 2026).

⚠️ Cons

  • Requires Screen Archer Menu, which you can only get from a Discord server—extra hassle if you're not already in that community.
  • Ahegao expressions only partially work with HDT Tongues, so some may not look right without that mod.
  • Compatibility risk: since it's an addon, any updates to Screen Archer Menu could break it, and it won't work with Poser Hotkeys Plus anymore.
🎯 Is This For You?
For Skyrim screenshot enthusiasts who use Screen Archer Menu and want a huge library of pre-made expressions to speed up their workflow. If you're tired of fiddling with Photo Mode's clunky expression menu, this is a direct upgrade. Skip if you don't use Screen Archer Menu or prefer building custom expressions manually.
📦 Install:Medium· 5-10 minutes

💡 Beginner Tips

  • After installing Screen Archer Menu, open the console and type 'sm' to launch it the first time—then set a custom hotkey in options for faster access.
  • Load custom emotions by going to the Expressions tab and pressing 'E' to load the addon's expressions.
  • If you use Halo's HDT Tongues, test the Ahegao expressions early to see which ones work—some may not align properly.
