**** What this mod does ****
This simple modification makes your character in the inventory screen stand with the default idle
rather than the ready weapon idle.








**** To Install ****

Drag and drop the Data folder in this rar file into your

c:\Program Files\Bethesda Softworks\Oblivion folder on your computer...then activate the mod.

I renamed the default standing idle animation to "BowIdle.kf"
you may have to add a line to your archiveInvalidation.txt file if it doesn't show up or work
(If you don't have an ArchiveInvalidation.txt just create one add these lines below and put into
your c:\Program Files\Bethesda Softworks\Oblivion\Data folder


meshes/characters/_male/BowIdle.kf
meshes/characters/_male/BowTurnLeft.kf
meshes/characters/_male/BowTurnRight.kf



**** To Use ****

When you start the game you will get a new item with the icon (I) in your weapons menu called
"Inventory Stand"

Equip it and your stance will be the default standing idle as long as this is equipped.


Bugs/Drawbacks **IMPORTANT**

All this does is add a "hidden" mesh (a simple cylinder) that is classified in the cs as a weapon (Bow)
so do not try to use this as a weapon it will look only look weird. Only equip it if you want a default idle in your
inventory then UNEQUIP IT and equip your normal weapon to return to normal gameplay.


This will change only your default bow idle with this mod installed you will now stand normally when standing with a bow Moving, shooting, crouching, or sneaking with a bow will remain unaffected. You will just not be half crouched anymore when you stand without moving with a bow...if you don't like this then uninstall the mod there is no way around it. Personally I think it looks better this way anyways. And is a very small price to pay for a normal inventory stance.


Enjoy
