Joy of Perspective

============ Description ============

The Joy of Perspective project is a complete overhaul of Skyrim's first person that adds more realistic animations and a visible body. Animations can be chosen between the more realistic 3rd person style animations (where weapons are held off screen) and vanilla style animations. This mod is a port of the Joy of Perspective mod on original Skyrim.

This mod is also available on Bethesda.net. PC https://bethesda.net/en/mods/skyrim/mod-detail/4014075

Xbox One https://bethesda.net/en/mods/skyrim/mod-detail/4014079

============= Installation =============

Please make a backup of your saved game before installing.

1. Activate 'The Joy of Perspective SE Beta' in NMM and follow instructions.

* For manual installation, extract the contents of the "00 Core" folder to your Skyrim data folder (C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\Skyrim\data). The '00 Core' folder installs the female movement animations, vanilla weapon stance, and vanilla animations by default. If you prefer something else, the other folders can be extracted into your data folder.

The "31 Optional Movement Behaviors" can be installed to enable additional movement direction animations (forward/backward-left/right). These have less quality when using Vanilla Combat Stance animations.

2. Click yes to overwrite all files/folders if prompted.

3. Activate the Joy of Perspective.esp

=============== Uninstallation ===============

Please follow these directions to avoid creating bugs with your save game. If they are not installed, switch to the Combat Stance Vanilla animations. Then make a saved game with your weapons out before uninstalling Joy of Perspective.

If removal via NMM fails a manual removal can be performed as follows:

1. Delete the following folder from your Skyrim install directory:

Data\Meshes\Actors\Character\_1stperson

2. Delete the JOP ESP files:

Data\Joy of Perspective.esp
