Description
==========


Attention: Backup your files before the installation. You've been warned!

This is an beta version and a work in progress. Make sure to read the Installation Instructions carefully! Please keep in mind this is WIP.

===========
What it does
===========


This mod makes the player's body visible in 1st person. It also replaces the first person animations with customized versions of the more realistic 3rd person animations.

Joy of Perspective now includes an alternative set of Vanilla style combat animations, this allows for some unique features:
- Weapons can be held offscreen using the 3rd person animations and still use Vanilla style attack animations.
- The ability of mix and match Vanilla and 3rd person animations. For example, you can have 3rd person combat animations and Vanilla style magic animations.

Recommended FOV is 85 or lower. FOV settings above 85 may introduce clipping bugs.

=====================
Main Mod Installation:
=====================


Attention: Remove all previous versions of this mod before you install v1.0.1 Beta.

1. Download 'The Joy of Perspective' (TJoP).

If you use XP32's 'Maximum Skeleton' mod, install this now, select 'No' when asked if you have 'The Joy of Perspective installed.

2. Activate 'The Joy of Perspective' in NMM.

* For manual installation, extract the contents of the "00 Core" folder to your Skyrim data folder (C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\Skyrim\data).
 Extract the contents of the "01" or "02" folder into your data folder to install either the female or male movement animations (weapons unequipped).

3. Click yes to overwrite all files/folders if prompted.

4. Place the following lines of text at the end of your Skyrim.ini file (C:\Users\*Username*\Documents\My Games\Skyrim), if they exist already, change the values to match the below.


[Camera]
bDisableAutoVanityMode=1
(Disables 3rd person spinning camera on long idle times - set to 0 to enable)
fFirstPersonSittingAngleLimit=1.2
fFirstPersonSittingRotationSpeed=0.0390

=========
Removal:
===========


If removal via NMM fails a manual removal can be performed as follows:

1. Delete the following folder from your Skyrim install directory:

'Data\meshes\Actors\Character\_1st person'

2. Delete SKSE/Plugins/SKSE_JoyOfPerspective.dll

If using NoSKSE version, delete The Joy of Perspective.esp files


===================================
1st Person Transitions Removal:
===================================


Important: Do not uninstall 'The Joy of Perspective [XXXXXX Transitions] -=V0.9.3=- Beta' - reinstall it if you have to.

1. Create a save with the 'The Joy of Perspective [XXXXX Transitions] -=V0.9.3=- Beta' addon still active and exit

2. Activate 'The Joy of Perspective [1st Person Transition Fix] -=V0.9=- Beta' in NMM.


For manual installations extract the contents of the Data folder found in 'The Joy of Perspective [1st Person Transition Fix] -=V0.9=- Beta' to your Skyrim data folder (CProgram FilesSteamsteamappscommonSkyrimdata).

3. Load you save game and check that the transitions have returned to 3rd person.

4. Create a clean save.

5. Disable both 'The Joy of Perspective [XXXXX Transition Fix] -=V0.9=- Beta' & 'The Joy of Perspective [XXXXXXX Transitions] -=V0.9.3=- Beta' in NMM.


For manual removal extract the contents of the Data folder found in 'The Joy of Perspective [XXXXXX] -=V0.9.3=- Beta' to your Skyrim data folder (C:\Program FilesSteamsteamappscommonSkyrimdata) or delete ALL files relating to this mod from your skyrim data folders.


==================
Update Instructions:
==================


If you're updating from a previous version, make sure to delete all files of the old version first before unpacking the archive.

==================
Compatibility Issues:
==================

The mod is not compatible with any other mod that flags the races in the CK. It is also not compatible with any mod which changes the first person skeleton.nif or any of the 1st person animations.

Automatic Head-tracking may also cause issues if enabled.


===========
Known Issues:
============


The player does not cast a shadow


Feet do not move when attacking/blocking (not too noticeable)


Weapons are visible when swimming


Your lower body may appear darker than normal when outside. This can be fixed by lowering fNearDistance under [Display] in Skyrim.ini but this may increase mountain flickering.
