I want to get started with making custom animations for fallout 4, what do I do?

[MrBigFedora]

Hey there, I've recently decided to start making mods for fallout 4 seeing as what im currently looking for (i.e. better animations/ fixes for the unrealistic vanilla ones) nobody has currently fixed some of them and I've decided to do it my self.

 

however I don't even know where to begin and I have VERY limited experience with the creation kit (I half finished a housing mod for skyrim, I couldn't even figure out how to navmesh it) I'm pretty sure I still remember the basics tho.

 

any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hey thanks I was more looking for weapon animations, but i didn't even consider idles and stuff like that, sweet.

YES!!! ...Idles in this game sucks for what choices there are ...and half of the choices dont work.

 

How about "fight" idles ??

You can use F4Biped for weapon animations just the same. You could use F4AK as well, both work equally well.

 

However, for now you can only create 1st person weapon animations. Third person weapon anims are completely broken at the minute.

Following. I want to try to make an animated Buttercup. Possibly a companion.
