📋 About This Mod

This is a fix to prevent the need to re-equip slot 32, the torso, or other slots such as the hands because the animation bones have become locked. It also allows cbpc and smp to better co-exist in mixed environments because when smp locks up the bones, they are locked up for cbpc as well. There are multiple versions, they all require avx and there is no cuda support.

🤖 AI-enhanced — based on mod data

This bug fix addresses a flaw in HDT-SMP's armor scanning code that can lock animation bones, particularly in the torso slot 32, until the armor is re-equipped. It's a targeted fix for Skyrim modders using HDT-SMP physics, with 2,151 endorsements and recent updates.
