📋 About This Mod
Hi everyone, it's been roughly a year since I quit making animations for Skyrim. I made a retirement video, but I still get DMs and comments on my YouTube channel asking about OAR conversions or how to install the latest updates.
I decided to make a statement here and shamelessly plug my game project (Click the Image). If you're a mod author or someone looking to convert, update, or pack my animations into another mod, feel free to do so with my permission.
To game developers considering using my animations (I've had a couple reach out to me before), I advise against it. While some animations are original, many are remakes of existing game movesets. They're not ripped, and I have the blend files with keyframes as proof. They're not of a quality that would be mistaken for the originals anyway, but using them might still attract unwanted attention and criticism. It's better to purchase assets from the Unity asset store or hire an animator for custom work.
I still occasionally browse Skyrim to see the incredible mods people are creating, and I'm still managing the costumes blog. However, I don't know if I'll ever return to making animation mods for Skyrim. I enjoyed making them (especially in the beginning) and received a lot of support over the years from this wonderful community. But now, it's time for me to move on.
Thank you for your support over the years, and I hope you've enjoyed some of my work these past few years.

This not behavior or scripted mod. There no new attack or hotkey. This just the regular power attack but i am using dynamic animation replacer to change the animation depend on the movement direction. My mods are open permission, you can upload or modify them without contacting me. but if you make xbox conversion then consider contacting me so i can share the link with other xbox users. You can also comment on the video if you have a question.
