Logs
=====
v1.0.2 Cast Anims Patch
- Reprioritizes bones in default casting animations to fix "stopping while casting" bug. Do NOT use this if you have custom casting animations. Most likely you don't experience this bug anyways. :P

v1.0.2 Specialanims
- Added specialanims support for CasualWalk. Now NPC's will not copy the manly walk.

v1.0 Patch
- Fixed the "limping" effect when two-hand blocking while moving. This was caused by improper bone priorities of twohandblockidle.kf & twohandblockhit.kf. Drop into your Oblivion/Data folder.

v1.0
- First release.

Introduction
============
This one's by request of my brother who also plays Oblivion. And it's about time I make something approriate for my character's minion--err companion, I mean. :P

Tired of Oblivion's two-hand moves that looks like it couldn't damage a log if it wants to? Do you have those downloaded uberswords bigger than your character but still swung around as if it weighs less than a pound? Try this animation replacer out and feel as if your big weapons actually weigh something. Now if only your enemies will be crushed appropriately...

But wait there's more!

As an added bonus, I included a modified casual idle/walk/run/jump replacer for something a little more manly than vanilla. Now you can stand and walk around like you really own Tamriel! ^_^


Description
===========
Just like my two other mods, this one replaces two-hand animations and casual animations. See Uninstallation for list of modified kf files.



Disclaimer
==========
Your Mileage May Vary. ^_^ Animation is inspired by SC's Siegfried, Nightmare, and Dragon Age's two-hand animations.

Notes
=====
- Will naturally conflict with other two-hand and casual walk animation replacers. Back up your old animations!
- Tail animations not yet included. Will work on it later.
- 3rd Person only. Really sorry about this one. I can't for the life of me make the camera work. >_
- Sorry I cannot provide a video preview, my PC's too ancient for that. If someone's kind enough to upload one I'd be grateful grapefruit! ^_^
- I really really recommend using Mayu's Animation Overhaul so you'll be the only one using the animation set (and other NPC's not yet supported by MAO).

- Create an OMOD from the zip file. It has omod conversion data included.
- Install. Follow automatic installation instructions.

For the CasualWalk's specialanims mode:
