Animations

A Word About Animation Replacers

Some of these mods can affect game balance by differing from vanilla attack speed and reload speed values. They might also be distracting or look strange at high agility and/or with the Rapid Reload perk. If you encounter misaligned ironsights, such as with Hit's Anims Season 1, you can align them with ISControl Enabler by following the steps on the Nexus page.

Dependencies​

ISControl Enabler​

REQUIRED for the following animations - automatically creates ##ISControl nodes for weapons with sighting nodes.

NV Compatibility Skeleton​

A skeleton with compatibility for the latest mods. The only mod in this guide using it is the next mod, B42 Weapon Inertia.
