MCA animation compatibility, a short explanation of the mod:  

This file patch enables MCA + Repopulated MW + Animated MW to work together in OpenMW without causing file conflicts and in game errors. 

The purpose of this database file is to patch compatible animation mods to prevent file conflicts causing sitting NPC's to fall into the ground, sit above/in the stool and/or stand up instead of sitting when displaying certain animations.


This file-patch replaces 7 animation meshes in other animation mods to prevent conflict with (OpenMW MCA Patch + MCA) and works with OpenMW

Patch function

- replaces 7 Mesh items located in you animation mod's Mesh\AM folder with the 7 found in this patch
- fixes compatibility issues between MCA & various other animation mods. These compatibility issues will present when looking  at an NPC displaying a sitting animation. Without this patch the conflicting files cause NPC's to fall into the  floor, sit above the stool and/or stand up and refuse to sit. 
- this patch resolves those problems by ensuring that all of the mods are calling for the same "AM" sitting animations with no conflict. 
- must be done after any other patches to your compatible animation mods folder. 


Note: This patch requires the original mod to be installed.
