About
New version is here! Check description below.
This is updated and fixed version of incredible immersive mod Complete Animations from stefan3372. I am not a creator of original mod, I only compile fixes for some annoying bugs and introduce just a little new features. Since author is agreed with redistribution I decided to share my compilation here. If you like this mode please go to original mod page and endorse.
Compared with original mod this version includes following features:
mesh buffer fix (thx to bunmenot)
fix for bug when you can't loot items after switched back to Geralt from Ciri (thx to rmemr)
slow-mo bugfix when you start looting and cutscene has started then
new animation of drinking potion - if Original or Alternate drinking animation is selected, in Exploration state Geralt perform true drinking animation from potion bottle instead of Horn animation. Movable or Combat drinking animations unchanged (still Horn animations)
when eating or drinking animation is triggered from quick radial menu it closes immediately
Witcher 3 Enhanced Edition version is introduced (4.93 version is supported for now) - it replaces W3EE animation system with Complete Animations one (including grindstone and workbench animations, quick inventory and convinient looting features support). Only for original W3EE, not Lazarus since it contains built-in Primal Needs mod with same as CA animation system. Suitable for those who don't like Lazarus mod or W3EE animations (like me)
increased base speed for some animations to more reasonable values (animations speed still can be adjusted in mod options)
added compability patches for most popular mods
added Russian translation
New features in version 1.1:
added options for choosing drinking potions animations types independenly from ordinary drinking animations

Installation
Choose a proper version first. If you play vanilla game, Ghost Mode or FCR3 choose version for vanilla game. If you play W3EE overhaul choose W3EE version (only old gen)
If you have original mod installed, uninstall it first
Use Witcher 3 Mod Manager for automatic installation or if you want manually copy everything from downloaded archive into game installation folder
After that merge with other mods if you play without W3EE overhaul. If you are installing W3EE version do not use automatic merge, just give the priority to Complete Animations (only old gen)
Add CompleteAnimationsReduxNG.xml to \bin\config\r4game\user_config_matrix\pc\dx11filelist.txt and dx12filelist.txt (only next gen)
After installation complete launch the game, go to mod settings section and choose animations settings you want
Uninstallation
Use Witcher 3 Mod Manager for automatic uninstallation or Delete modCompleteAnimationsRedux from mods folder, CompleteAnimations.xml (or CompleteAnimationsReduxNG.xml if you have next gen version) from bin\... folder, DLCCompleteAnimationsRedux from DLC folder. If you have W3EE version rename W3EnhancedEdition.xml.original in bin\... folder to W3EnhancedEdition.xml
Compability (old gen)
W3EE 4.93 - use special version, do not use Script Merger, just give the priority to CA Redux over W3EE
Ghost Mode - use compability patch for 1.1 and then Script Merger
FCR3 - use Script Merger
AutoLoot Configurable All-in-One - use compability patch, it enables animations for containers without autolooting
Friendly HUD - use compability patch, it enables animations for quick potions from radial menu
More Quick Slots - use compability patch, it enables animations from quick inventory of MQS. If you meet conflict during playerWitcher merging choose line from modMoreQuickSlots (variant C)
