New dedicated animations for traversing up & down slopes, like stairs and hills, using Open Animation Replacer's new surface angle detection. Subtle effort and intentional steps are introduced around 45°, either up or down- you will see this frequently, even on NPCs! Around 60+° downwards, you'll nearly slide down with rapid steps and a bracing arm. Purely visual, no gameplay changes, and customizable through the MCM.
Downwards Medium Slope - around -30° or lower
Run: All-purpose, precise, quick contact steps with arms lifted for balance
Walk: Casual steps with a slight lift to the arms
Upwards Medium Slope - around +30° or higher
Run: Intentional steps with a strong downwards kick, large arm arc with elbows poised for effort
Walk: Casual lifted steps with an intentional elbow scoop for leverage
Downwards Steep Slope - around -60° or lower, disabled on stairs.
Run: Rapid clambering sideways steps, hips turned and arms braced for a fall
