📋 About This Mod
I made some sneak animations for fun.
OAR conditions trigger for female player character, sneaking and weapons sheathed.
I only made two mt_idle variations, sneakwalk_forward, sneakrun_forward and some turning animations, so if you want to use this you will probably want to have some other mod that adjusts movement behavior to use forward movement in every direction, I use true directional movement.

Crawling Sneak Animations OAR is a Skyrim animation mod that replaces sneak animations for female player characters with crawling movements when sneaking with weapons sheathed. It includes idle, forward walk, forward run, and turning animations, and requires OAR and a directional movement mod for full effect.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 329 endorsements and over 11k downloads
- Adds a unique crawling style that changes up the standard sneak feel
- Pairs well with True Directional Movement for a more immersive stealth experience
⚠️ Cons
- Only covers female player characters, so male characters or NPCs won't see the animations
- Limited animation set—just idles, forward walk/run, and turns—so you'll want other mods to fill gaps
- Requires OAR and a movement mod like True Directional Movement to work as intended, adding setup complexity
For Skyrim players who want a fresh, low-profile sneak animation for female characters and already use OAR and True Directional Movement. Skip if you play male characters or prefer vanilla-style sneak animations.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure OAR is installed and up to date, as this mod relies on its conditions to trigger the animations.
- Pair with True Directional Movement so your character moves forward in all directions, otherwise the animations may look off when strafing.
- Check the mod's preview GIFs to see the crawling style before installing, so you know exactly what you're getting.
