*** Resolved *** Turns out it was PC Exclusive Animation Path preventing it from working. Weird. Not sure what I should do about it but at least my animations work.

***RESOLVED*** It turns out it was the PC Exclusive Animation Path. Maybe I had an incorrect load order or something, but it works when PCEA is disabled.

*** RESOLVED SEE REPLY *** So recently, I attempted to get the Lifelike Idle Animations from the SKyrim Nexus, using Nexus Mod Manager. After installing it, it doesn't actually work, and I remain stuck with this simple animation where my character leans forward and points, then just goes back to standing for a couple seconds before leaning and pointing again. It's very weird, odd and distracting, especially with my enhanced 1st person camera mod, and I'm wondering if anyone knows a surefire way to get the animation working. I've run FNIS with the x32 Skelton Arm Fix, as well as the PC Exclusive animation path (maybe I should try without PCEA?) before and after installing the mod. As a joke I used Estrus to see if new animations would load at all, and it worked fine, so I'm not sure if maybe its just Lifelike Idles that's broken or what? I'm using the newest Steam version of SKyrim, SKSE 1.7.1, and all of the mods from the SKyrim Total Enhancement Project (STEP) as well as some personal weapon armour and location mods that don't really mess with the animation. I am currently using x32's skeleton with the UNP Skinny Base with BBP Physics. If anyone knows how to resolve this issue, it'd be greatly appreciated. Below is an image of the animation I can't get rid of, if any of you know what mod/replacement forces it.

I always ensure the skeleton arm fix is checked, if it matters I'm also using the PC Exclusive Animation path, and I've checked it in FNIS every time I run it..

So recently, after modding skyrim through S.T.E.P and after a while of completing that adding a variety of mods on my own accord (weapons, locations, nothing to do with animations besides whatever is included in STEP) I decided I wanted new character idle animations. I found the LIfelike Idle Animations mod and decided to install it, however, it appears to simply not work. My character remains stuck with a simple idle where every 10-15 seconds or so she just leans and points forward (see attached image) I'm not sure where that idle came from, most likely a skeleton (I use x32) or a body mod (UNP Skinny with BBP physics). I'm not sure how to resolve this. I've tried installing and then running with FNIS, tried without running with FNIS, and I only ever seemed to get a variation once where it just used the default vanilla animation, but I'm not sure how to get to that point, to be honest. If someone could help me out, or knows what the issue may be, it'd be greatly appreciated. Basic info: Steam Version of Skyrim, newest update NMM to download most mods (strictly from nexus/loverslab, no workshop or anything) and ModOrganizer to sort and troubleshoot/run the actual game exe's. SKSE v1.7.1 All DLC's if it matters, and the only program I use is LOOT because it comes with ModOrganizer. If you need any other information, just let me know. Thanks.
