Description
This mod replaces the passive locomotion animations for female characters in Oblivion Remastered, introducing more feminine movement. It includes new walking, running, and sprinting animations, along with a new idle posture. Since the modding scene for this game is still in its early stages, this should be considered a work-in-progress. This release primarily serves as a proof-of-concept, demonstrating that it is possible – though tricky – to replace locomotion based on character variables.
The mod works by periodically scanning for any characters marked as female and applying the new animations to them. This includes the player character as well. The animations themselves need some touch up here and there (especially the sprint) but due to time limitations, I decided to release the mod now and update it later.
Installation
- Install UE4SS if you haven't already (Do not install the Signatures optional file)
- Launch the game once - without obse_loader.exe if you use OBSE.
- Extract the main zip file to your Oblivion Remastered root directory (where the game's .exe is located).
- Follow the above steps.
- Navigate to your Oblivion Remastered folder and then go to "OblivionRemastered/Binaries".
- Rename "Win64" to "WinGDK".
NOTE: If you're using a mod manager, double check where it's placing the files as both Vortex and Mod Organizer 2 currently have issues with misplacing files for complicated installs.
Configuration
Inside of "Content/Paks/LogicMods" you'll find a file called "FemaleLocomotion_Config.ini" where you can modify various settings such disabling the new sprint animation or disabling procedural character leaning (present in the vanilla game). These settings cannot be modified at runtime and require the game to be restarted.
- ReplaceSprint = Sets whether the sprint animation is overridden
- PlayerOnly = Disables animation changes for NPCs
- FIKChanges = Allows changes to the FIK system
- DisableLean = Setting to disable procedural leaning that occurs on sloped surfaces for female characters
Uninstall
Navigate to “Oblivion Remastered/OblivionRemastered/Content/Paks/LogicMods” and delete “FemaleLocomotion.pak/.ucas/.utoc”
Known Issues
- Random idles and conversation idles will snap between different postures.
- Foot rotation can behave oddly (currently unfixable).
"Oblivion Remastered/OblivionRemastered/Content/Paks/LogicMods".
They should NOT be in ~mods or anywhere else.
For the LUA configuration system, go to "Oblivion Remastered\OblivionRemastered\Binaries\Win64\ue4ss\Mods" and make sure there's a folder called FemaleLocomotion. If not, extract it from the zip file.
If this mod still isn't working for you, it's likely due to your UE4SS setup. Check the following:
Open Mods.txt in "Oblivion Remastered\OblivionRemastered\Binaries\Win64\ue4ss\Mods" and make sure that BPModLoaderMod is set to 1 and then also confirm that a mod folder for BPModLoaderMod exists in the directory as well.
If everything is set up correctly and it still doesn't work, try reinstalling UE4SS. You can download the latest version here:

For OBSE users:
If you've been running the game through obse64_loader.exe, try launching the basegame's executable inside of:
"OblivionRemastered/Binaries/Win64/OblivionRemastered-Win64-Shipping.exe"
Once the game gets the menu, close it and return to launching the game via obse64_loader as usual.
