📋 About This Mod
- Introduction :
If you have installed custom third person animations (like idles, walking, sneaking, etc...) and also use mods like Improved Camera or Immersive First Person View, you might have encountered weird camera behaviour or clipping while playing on first person view.
This little mod's goal is to dynamically overwrite player's animations (while on first person view only) to get a better experience.
For now, those alternate animations are just the ones from the default game assets (they work pretty well with first person camera mods).
I initially made this for myself and I don't have the necessary knowledge to make new animations so don't expect something very polished like I usually do. I just though it would be a good thing sharing the idea of optimized First Person Animations with the community.
