Nexus Mods


**Description:**   
  
**It's 2021 and you are supposedly the swolest being on Tamriel but you swing a sword like you have back problems.  In fact, you swing every weapon like you have back problems. No more. You are a demi-god. Chosen of Akatosh. Dovahkin strong. Dovahkin smash.****Disclaimer: I am more of an artist than I am programmer. Some things don't work exactly the way I want to because my limited technical knowledge. This is my first mod and I have never used any modding tools and I have never learned how to use Blender or AutoDesk Maya. I learned *all* of that just to make this mod. I used tools provided to me to the best of my ability and I hope that's enough. Thank you :)**

First Person Combat Animations Overhaul v1.0  
﻿  
﻿  
  
  
Thanks to the Dynamic Animation Replacer, we can have custom animations for every single different weapon type in the game recognized by the vanilla system.   
This mod only changes vanilla animations and does not contain any custom animations so FNIS or Nemesis is not required.   
  
Weapons will feel chunkier, swords will slice and cut, axes will hack, maces will crush, and daggers will stab. NO MORE OF THE SAME. This mod also matches the vanilla timing so you don't have to relearn your weapons.   
  
**Installation and Requirements:**  
  
* [Dynamic Animation Replacer](https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/101371)﻿ is hard requirement for this mod. Like hard. Harder than me when I see Chun-Li in her Interpol outfit. So please download DAR and all it's requirements.
* Download my mod with Vortex/Mod Organizer and install.
* That's it. No Nemesis or FNIS required
* This mod also has no ESP or ESP
* This mod can be uninstalled at any time with no repercussions. No scripts. Doesn't even overwrite vanilla HKX files.
* If you running the 1.0 version of my mod. Please uninstall the old one and install this one instead. Or simply overwrite the old files with these new ones. FPCAO1 and FPCAO2 are not meant to be run together.

  
**This mod currently supports:**

**The Sword**  
*"The jack of all trades. Most common weapon in Skyrim, for good reason. Standard issue weapon for your disciplined soldier. Its thrusting and slashing capabilities demands both strength and dexterity from its user.  Boasts good reach and high attack speed, only bested by the dagger."  
  
The sword in the stone has dominated your childhood fantasies. Why not pull it from its resting place?*

﻿**The War Axe***"For both the fearsome warrior and the indignant peasant.  With it's weight balanced at the end, the axe can cleave through wood and limbs if aimed precisely at its target. Heavy by design, axes will always swing slower than swords, but makes up for it in high damage."  
  
Hack away at your enemies. Rip and tear. Til it is done.* **Replaces:**

**The Mace**  
*"For people who like to bonk. A single bonk from a mace is so mighty, the weight of the end alone can break through an opponent's guard or destroy brain cells through a helmet. Though, it's heavy weight makes it slower than the axe, but people who like to bonk don't care about this."***Replaces:**

﻿**The Dagger**  
*"Swift in speed but modest in damage. In a close quarters scramble, a critical strike from the dagger to the armpits or neck has changed the tide of many duels. Due to its small size, it can be concealed in clothing or a bag. Whether for self-defense or assassinations.... "***Replaces:**

﻿**The Akaviri Sword**  
*"A blade forged in the distant lands of Akaviri, east of Tamriel. There was once a legend of an Akaviri warrior who wielded a long, single edged curved sword, roaming Tamriel in search of worthy opponents. An argonian bandit who survived an encounter with the warrior recounts seeing his bandit friends seemingly being "cut down in one swift motion."***Replaces:**

Spoiler:  ShowDue to the nature of DAR, I have to manually add support for katana style weapons. This is because Katanas are just labeled as swords in the vanilla game. So if you have a custom mod containing a "katana", it may just act like a sword if my mod does not include it  
  
**Currently supported Katanas:**  
All vanilla katanas *(Dragonbane, Harkon's Sword etc.)*Immersive Weapons Katanas

﻿**The Greatsword**  
*"Much too heavy for one hand. You need two. A symbol of physical strength and combat prowess. A greatsword's swing is far reaching with unexpected speed. The greatsword keeps the versatility of a sword, with the added benefit of being able to push with one arm and pull with the other, making its weight less of a factor."***Replaces:**

**Compatibility:**  
* Tested this mod in LE with a couple of key mods and also tested in my 250+ mod SSE Lvl 30 save file. No problems.
* ****Combat Gameplay Overhaul/**Nemesis/FNIS** - semi-compatible. This is only applicable to the great weapons. Nothing game breaking but some odd visual bugs during running and standing idle. The attack animations seem to work fine with CGO but some CGO idles may take priority over mine. My mod should be fine with Nemesis unless you have a mod that also modifies the same files as my mod AND it requires Nemesis. If so, then Nemesis/FNIS-based animations will take priority. As of right now there not many mods that modify first person combat, so I wouldn't worry about it.
* I**mproved Camera** - 100% compatible.
* **Finally First Person Magic Animation** - Compatible. Changes completely different animations so no conflict. This mod was a big inspiration for me.
* **Other 3rd person animations mods** - Compatible. Those animations are independent from 1st person.
* **Enhanced 1st Person Parry Animations** - Compatible. I did not change any of the same files. I would not take the optional bash animations if you want to use mine.
* **Joy of Perspective** - is NOT compatible. That mod makes use of your 3rd person arms instead. It's harmless but you just wont see my animations.
* I used Dynamic Animation Replacer **priority numbers 777-785**. If you are using other DAR mods, please check if you have any other mods that also use the same numbers. if they do, the mods will conflict with each other.

  
**Known Issues and FAQ:*** *"I get weird animations during my power attacks. sometimes my arms teleport into position or  I attack twice" -*this is also not a bug. This is a vanilla *feature*. When you hold down a button for your power attack, Skyrim will always play the first few frames of your attackright or attackrightdiagonal animation before your power attack recognition kicks in. Todd did this, not me. It just works, bro.
* *"when I sheath my dual daggers, there is a pause then I re-equip my weapon?" -*this one is on me. I don't know why this is happening but you can just stand still and sheath then everything will be fine. I currently have no fix for this.
* *"my weapon is using vanilla animation and/or using the wrong animations!" -*your weapon is either not recognized by the vanilla system or your custom weapon is not supported by my mod. This is mainly applicable to the katana animations, which I have to manually add your custom weapon to my katana's  \_condition.txt for DAR or you can do it yourself. check supported list above.
* "*there are no sneak attack animations" -*intentional. The animation is currently buggy but I may be able to fix this in the future. It is not included for this reason.
* *"there are no side power attacks" -*intentional. I never really used these attacks because it's ridiculously wonky to aim with them. Despite that, it is an empty unused slot for customization and I may work on something for the future.
* *"my weapons or armor clips through my body" -* I simply can not account for the size of every weapon and armor in the game. I'm sorry that this is probably not immersive but XP32 MAXIMUM BOOTY PHYSICS EXTENSION isn't either. I developed these animations to look good around FOV 80-100.
* *"I can't see my hands or my hands are too close to me. Even when I change FOV" -*luckily this is not my mod. please check comments section for sticky post
* *"these animations suck, they are not even realistic at all" -*this one is also on me, but I have heard that ALT+F4 is a great solution to this problem

  
**Changes from 1.0 to 2.0**  
  
* added new 1hm\_attackright for every 1h weapon.
* major changes to most of the 1h weapon animations.
* added great weapons
* added block idle and block bash animations.
* added the ebony blade to \_conditions.txt list for DAR katanas. my bad
* dagger animations will not work with shields anymore due to visual clipping.

  
  
If you have a problem or conflict with another mod, tell me about it in detail and I'll try to replicate the problem and fix it to the best of my abilities.

I consider my original vision for this mod 95% finished. My original intent was only to improve the vanilla combat experience, not to replace it entirely. There is still plenty left I want to do, but now updates will be more slower and more spaced out.  Anything I do from now on I consider extra. I need to get some exercise.
