Skybroom Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 (edited) Guess we have a problem here. At least me have a problem. For quite a long time I've been searching for a decent replacer for vanilla female idles. These are only two - if I'm not mistaken: female STAND idle and female WALK idle. But these two are enough to drive me crazy, drive me wild. They are pretty ugly. Just look at these hands: http://imgdepo.com/id/i10237377.jpg Do you like this hands position? Yes, it's feminine, it's womanish, we must consider it womanish. But it's a hands after laundering, when a woman needs to dry them up, or to prevent her clothes from getting wet. Besides it's annoying when never change.Yes, there is a Pretty Female Idles mod. I could not stand it for more then couple of days when all the female characters keep giving a twitch every time they stop moving in order to make a pose. it's not my cup of tea. Besides, as soon as they start walking they stretch their hands down exactly the same way it is depicted on a screen above. Those hands remind me two little shovels, inflexible, stupid and dull. The lack of elbows flexibility plays its part. Yes, there is a sexy female idles, which changes the very walk animation. But may I leave it with no comment? All the women in Skyrim CAN NOT be sluts, can they? (Sorry if it sounds abusive, English is not my native language, so I may not realize all the shades of those words) Indeed, I feel sorry for all the female characters. Sweet faces, wonderful bodies, and such a strange most common, basic idles. Something should be done to it.

IsharaMeradin Posted January 31, 2017 Share Posted January 31, 2017 You may wish to take a look at Realistic Animation Project - Idles and Realistic Animation Project - Movement. If you are looking for diversity, you can use PCEA2 to give your character one set of idles while the NPCs use a different set of idles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are looking for diversity, you can use PCEA2 to give your character one set of idles while the NPCs use a different set of idles.- Hello, it's me again.- Again, you mean you've been laundering again?- Hey, Dova, and who, who is supposed to wash all your dirty stuff up? We seem to have no servants. http://imgdepo.com/id/i10238324.jpg Yep, I gave it a try. No changes on basic hands posture. Walk idles, stand idle (do we have stand idle?) - hands are asking modders for mercy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IsharaMeradin Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 There is a stand idle. A lot of mods replace the stand idle. Do they affect the hands? Probably not in the way that you want. Personally, I never saw the hands in the manner that you describe. The natural relaxed position of the hand, when not resting on something else, is to hang limp with the fingers slightly curved. This is the position that they are in for the default stand and walk idles. I don't see the problem. Perhaps if you showed pictures of what you want, maybe someone might know if there is something close to that or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skybroom Posted February 1, 2017 Author Share Posted February 1, 2017 (edited) Ok. What I've picked quickly on Internet: Concentration:http://imgdepo.com/id/i10239515.jpg Hardly covered tension:http://imgdepo.com/id/i10239513.jpg First step beyond one's timidity:http://imgdepo.com/id/i10239512.jpg Composure and self-confidence:http://imgdepo.com/id/i10239514.jpg Dream:http://imgdepo.com/id/i10239511.jpg I want to place an emphasis on a vertical lines of the arms in general. All these examples show the nearly straight line with no elbows concave. No Fashion, no catwalk, no laundery. Simplicity and grace. I see these postures to be a good template for making basic idles for different female types (ages, occupation and so on). At least any one of them. Sorry for my unprofessional and highly clumsy language. Hope you'll get me right. I feel like I need to clearify it. I mean the whole arms, not the hands alone.

IsharaMeradin Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 You'll just have to experiment and see if there are any animations that are tolerable. If not... Perhaps learn the tools and make it yourself? Sorry, can't be of much more help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
