I was about to install this, but the file structure looks like it will change the animations of *all* characters (and not just vampires): Is that correct?
awesome mod! works good but there is just one bug, when I use one handed sword on horse combat it doesn't work, it often does no damage and sometimes the swing-animation stops. Maybe it is not compatible with something? well this is the only bug I found so far, besides that the mod works fine^^
Painted nails in new version of that mod, you need older version, download it from the link in description. Cause of restriction i can't give full link in comments but it look like this http://www.loverslab.com/topic/3041-old-kaws-claws/
I understand why some people complain about mod not working for them. If you install this mod when you already vampire it not change your vampire into beast race, so some animation for example strike from sneak will be close handed. You need first become normal and when become vampire again. For example for dark elf you need type in console: player.setrace darkelfrace and when type: player.setrace darkelfracevampire
Everything is working for me except the open hand attack animation. I use better vampires not vampiric thirst. Do you know why my animation isn't playing with opened hand. Do I need finis for this to work?
Hi. Don't know. It work for me. But i have message from player with same problem. Maybe one mod overwrite another. You may try to disable mods except this and start new game, and when type in console: player.setrace darkelfvampire (your race instead of darkelf) and watch is it work?
If all work correctly closed fist only appear when you hit in the block.
Checked again. DarkElf race work fine, but Imperial race don't have sound of attacks, but claws open. So i don't want to check all races, write what race you play and i check this race.
And i stop playing Skyrim and will not support this mod. I just add some animation to original mod, you may ask author of the original mod, but he was busy.
Just checked. Made new install, this mod latest. All work fine.
In installation of Vampiric Thirst needed "Fores New Idles in Skyrim (FNIS)" mod, in this mod there is executable programm GenerateFNISforUsers.exe that check animation files, maybe you need to restart this programm to check new animation files. And i only can install this FNIS mod by Nexus Manager, other programm Wrye Smash don't install executable programm GenerateFNISforUsers.exe at all.
What problems exactly do you have.
Vampiric Thirst interesting mod by the way. I just start to look for vampire mod to play. Don't decide yet what to play.
Claws it's a separate mod, i add this in description, download here http://www.**.com/topic/3041-old-kaws-claws/ ** = lovers-lab without "-". Or better watch in description of this mod. This claws made by smithing, and will be 0 armor but with damage equal to Daedric gloves(with perk).
Maybe in Vampiric Thirst some diffrent vampirism mechanics. You need to be a vampire or beastrace. Make save and try this: in game open console with"~" symbol on keyboard, when type: player.setrace darkelfracevampire Instead darkelf type your race. This make your character a vampire. If your character a vampire he must punch with open hand. Only exception if you hit in the block, when punch will be with closed hand.
Hi all, I am using Vampiric Thirst as well. This is how:
VT has an MCM menu option to alter character's appearanace (Vampiric and Normal). If you set it to Normal, then your character will switch to the mortal race variant but will keep all the vampire abilities, keywords and other stuffs that allow the game to recognise vampires. However, you will attack with closed hands as if you were human. Set the appearance to "Vampire" in MCM to make this mod work properly and to Normal to attack with fists, not claws.
UPDATE Use a mod called DVA with Vampiric Thirst and IUSAV. Even if your apperanace is set to "Vampire", DVA reverst your looks to more human-like that degrades when you do not feed, allowing you to look more appealing and attack with open hands every time

Edit: nevermind, it does.
