ANIMATION LIST & SHOWCASE

Click the name of the weapon to view a showcase of it. Weapons marked with an * have received revisions, tweaks, or complete remakes. Click the spoiler tag under each weapon for a description of what was changed.

1. 10mm Pistol *
2. [spoiler] UPDATE 1.4: Largely the same animation as before, but it has been moved closer to the camera. Many animations have been fine-tuned and smoothed out, and camera shake has been reduced. Two more reload variants have been added for full reloads (for a total of 4), and a reload variant has been added for the partial reload (for a total of 2).
3. [/spoiler]
4. .45 Auto Pistol *
5. [spoiler] Remade from the ground-up, barring the jam animation, which was transferred to the new idles. Features 3 attack variants. Features 1 full reload variant and 1 partial reload variant. Adheres to the same timings as the original set.
6. [/spoiler]
7. 9mm Pistol *
8. [spoiler] UPDATE 1.2: Uses the .45 Auto Pistol set as a base. Features 2 attack variants that are unique to the 9mm Pistol. Features 1 full reload variant, 1 partial reload variants, and 1 full/partial reload variant for the extended magazine. Reloads have been revised to better accommodate the differing magazine sizes of the 9mm Pistol (as compared to the much smaller .45 Auto Pistol magazine).
9. [/spoiler]
10. Plasma Pistol
11. [spoiler] See Changelog 1.3 for details.
12. Exactly the same as before--no changes were necessary here.

16. [/spoiler]
17. Laser Pistol *
18. [spoiler] See Changelog 1.4 for details.
19. Remade entirely from scratch. High-power variants removed, as they were redundant and the result of a "too-powerful" looking animation anyways. More gameplay-friendly in terms of screen-space and timing.

22. [spoiler] See Changelog 1.3 for details.
23. Received brand new idles to emphasize the weapon better. Cleaned up equip and unequip animations to be smoother. New attack animations, with "high power" support. Normal and "high power" attacks come with 1 variant. Reload animation motions were edited to be smoother and punchier.

2. kNVSE
3. ISControl Enabler
4. lStewieAI's Tweaks
5. Turn Auto Weapon No Firing Delay on

COMPATIBILITY

1. Out-of-the-box compatibility with any mod that does not specifically use kNVSE to edit the same animations.
2. Does not overwrite vanilla animations, allowing you to safely switch back.
3. No plugin. Safe to install/uninstall mid-game.

INSTALLATION & CHOOSING WHICH ANIMATIONS ARE INCLUDED

1. Download all requirements.

3. Download and install this mod, with any addons you desire.
4. If you wish to remove any of the included animations for any reason, simply navigate to "data/meshes/AnimGroupOverride," and delete the .json file whose name corresponds to the weapon animations you don't wish to use. All .jsons should be named in a straightforward manner, with two exceptions:
5. Rock_Pistol refers to the 9mm Pistol.
6. Rock_Tubegun refers to the Single Shotgun.
7. It is not necessary to delete folders, unless you wish to save space.

DESCRIPTION

The idea behind this is simple, even if it ended up ballooning into a very sizeable project.

As I've progressed with my animation, I've received plenty of very helpful feedback that has helped my animations become smoother, punchier, and overall look better; basically, I'm now better able to achieve what I want to with my animations. I have no doubt I will continue learning and improving--however, as far as my little project for FNV goes, it did mean that some of my animations included in my Part 1 mega-pack were lagging behind.

In many cases, it was simply a case of some [very consistently] poorly considered idles, which not only did not look good on any FOV about 65 (not a huge concern for me), but didn't emphasize the weapons you were holding in interesting ways. Many of the animations that relied on these idles were largely good, if a bit behind, and would only need some general cleanup. Some--but not many--would require entire remakes. After discovering a way to [relatively] quickly convert animations to new idles, I began this project in earnest.

I won't drone on about the technical details--suffice to say that several sets worth of work was done here.

The goal behind all of this was, ultimately, to not only bring these animations more up to speed with my current work for my own pleasure, but to bring these sets up to speed with the majority of the animation work being done on Nexus right now. Namely, these should mesh much better with hitman47101's various animations. In short, I wanted to do this not only for my own sake, but for the sake of users so that there wasn't a clear quality gap between old and new animations.

This is fully intended to replace the original version of this mod by me--I hope that's clear enough. You'll have to uninstall the original version if you want to use this one.

One final note: you'll notice that the Service Rifle hasn't received much attention. This is because I am fully committed to just covering FO3 weapons for TTW. This has been my goal for a while--but I'm really dropping incidental support, because the increased workload that brings on is no longer worth it. I've also dropped all of the B42 Inspect animations, I'm afraid--although I respect Xilandro deeply, and think it's a cool mod, it simply increases the workload by too much. Hopefully the variant animations for the attack, reload, and jam animations make up for this.

I hope you enjoy the work here. If you do, please endorse. :)
