LE Immersive Dancing/Singing/Performing

[Ascawien]

I've been wanting to play a bard style character for a while now and I'm just gathering a whole stack of mods that I think will compliment that sort of playthrough and the idea came to me that I'd really like it if my character would be able to entertain crowds in more ways than just by playing an instrument. I have already downloaded and installed the great looking Become a Bard (which is sadly still hidden on here but the author has reactivated it on Steam and linked the latest direct download in an add-on mod that is still on here) but whilst it offers all the music playing entertainment my character can offer, it still falls a little short of what I'd envisaged for my proposed character.

 

What I'd really like to be able to do is to entertain the Inn crowds and the Jarls with not only my skill in playing instruments but in singing and dancing and perhaps juggling or knife throwing or any other number of lore friendly ways that would keep the npc's interested and captivated just as singing does and would have them applaud in the same way upon completion (assuming I didn't botch it up during ofc). With absolutely no experience in modding I can't say whether this would be an easy case of taking the npc triggers that tell them a bard is performing a song (so they would watch and react accordingly) and instead of having that character sing/play they would instead perform another action or whether it would be a lot more complex than that and require a huge amount of work to get it to work.

 

I also discovered that there seemingly aren't any lore-friendly dance animations (or that the ones that could be argued that might be lore friendly come with modern music). I went through a whole bunch of the dance animations listed on here and on other sites and didn't really find anything that might fit, although any dance animation that could be set with a lore-friendly music tune playing would still be great. I even checked the romance mod to see if there was anything there, especially in regards to paired dancing but again, didn't find anything (although to be fair I only read through the features, checked the video and a few of the comments, I didn't actually install the mod to inspect it). On the subject of dance still, does anyone know how to quickly and easily replace the awful default Cicero dance with something better? I use the Lively Inns and Taverns mod and having several of the tavern folk all performing that dance at the same time is pretty jarring.

 

So... is this something that would technically even be feasible or am I hoping for the impossible. Also, would anyone even be interested in such a thing? Thoughts and comments appreciated.

Ordinator perk overhaul kinda scratches the surface with this kind of thing. With the speech tree, you can perform for people, and they'll clap and dance and give you coin.

Thank you for the reply and the suggestion, I'd actually already scanned through that very mod but as it seemed to indicate that it was another singing/instrumental performance I made the choice to continue looking elsewhere, although sadly, that search has still come up empty.

 

Now if the activator for that "performance" could initiate a player dance or other animation instead of another song then it's certainly a step in the right direction.
