About this mod

Several static objects are now animated, as they should be

Requirements
Permissions and credits
The mod adds opening/closing and idle animations to several objects that should be animated in my opinion for the sake of greater “realism”.
Consider 1.9 the final update. The only static containers remaining are corpses and they should probably stay that way.

1.9

common barrel has opening/closing animations
thiefs guild cache has opening/closing animations
wrapped draugr have opening/closing animations

The only reason this modular installer exists is because kevkas was kind enough to make it and deserves a bag of cookies :)

Incompatibilities with mods:
This is a mesh replacer, it doesn’t and won’t include esp files
I personally use SMIM, ELFX and water and terrain enhancement redux. Had no issues with any of them, but since i don’t use parallax, the meshes don’t point to parallax maps if you use texture overhauls with parallax support. I don’t think you are gonna miss parallax on containers or doors, but if you do, you can add the texture location to a mesh pretty easy, I’m not gonna explain how. I don’t follow the water mod updates, so I don’t know what meshes it includes, but if you are skeptical I suggest not using ship meshes from this mod.

BTW, please understand that these are my personal preferences in speed, size, type of animation, etc. so there is too much work for me in changing them or making optional speed changes

Installation: just replace the default mesh in your folder structure

If I eventually find anything that bothers me, I’ll add it. I would like to thank everybody for endorsing/downloading/liking this. It’s always nice if your stuff is appreciated.
Have fun!

If you think something obvious (container, door) isn’t animated and should be in the main game or extensions, let me know
