Animated Interactions And Idles is an successor to Sky Idles with new interaction idles, idle list menu and conditional and non-conditional random idles. Mod still contains most of Sky Idles animations and some of them have been reworked.

Some Idles are movement enabled and won't interfere with the flow of you character.

AI&I supports both Nemesis and FNIS and is esl-flagged to save plugin space.

Interaction idles include idles for map menu, journal menu, magic menu, inventory menu, book menu and dialogue.

It's recommended to use Skyrim Souls RE to un-pause certain menus to see idles that would otherwise be paused.

Interaction idles do not play while:

  • []weapon is drawn

    []in 1st person

    []sitting

    []swimming

    []riding

    []in combat

    []werewolf or vampire form

    Conditional and non-conditional random idles trigger when player has not moved for user defined amount of time and idles do not play while:

    • []weapon is drawn

      []busy with other idles

      []jumping

    • []in beast or vampire form

      []in 1st person

      []sitting

      []swimming

      []riding

      [](un)equipping

      []in combat

      []moving

      []in animation driven state

      []in menus

    • sneaking

      !Do not exceed 100% in idle probability % range seen in MCM for non-conditional idles, so that they won't overlap each others chances!

      Colors indicate suiting range in MCM.

      Idles are 3rd person and player only and they can be cancelled with activation and crouch key. 

      Mod includes MCM for easy customization of random idle probabilities and more.

      Idles keep playing when you start moving after idle has triggered. Conditional idles indicate player status, for example when player has contracted a vanilla disease, a coughing idle can trigger.
