📋 About This Mod
Original mod can be found here: https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/49981
I wanted to use these really excellently made animations in my own setup however, I use OAR and Conditional armour type animations 'CATA' and needed to place the animations in the appropriate folder structure to make them work for non-armoured females alongside Verolevi's wonderful series of locomotion mods.
I thought others might want to do the same so I reached out to gekkou1992 and sent him this repackaged version of their animations and suggested they upload them on their page for users like me... But I got no response after a few weeks so here it is.
If gekkou1992 uploads this to their own page or asks me to remove this mod then I will do so immediately.
This mod repackages gekkou1992's Female running and walking animation SE to work as locomotion animations for non-armoured females in Skyrim Special Edition. With 4,634 endorsements and 69,438 downloads, it's a popular animation overhaul for players seeking more feminine movement. Last updated September 2025.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community favorite with 4,634 endorsements and nearly 70k downloads
- Gives your non-armoured female characters a more natural, feminine gait
- Repackaged for easy installation—no need to dig through the original mod's files
⚠️ Cons
- Only affects non-armoured females—armoured characters keep vanilla animations
- May conflict with other animation overhauls that touch locomotion (like FNIS or Nemesis-based mods)
- No explicit compatibility notes for other animation mods, so test with your load order
For Skyrim players who want their female characters to move with more grace and femininity, especially if you're playing a mage or thief in light clothing. Skip if you want animations for armoured characters or if you're already using a comprehensive animation overhaul that covers locomotion.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2, just download and install—no manual file placement needed.
- Make sure to run FNIS or Nemesis after installing to update your animation list, or the new animations won't play.
- This mod only affects non-armoured females, so if you're testing, strip your character down to clothes or light armor.
