making finger control especially simple.

With the newly designed UI, the animation export process has been streamlined

 just a few clicks are all it takes.

Fixed Female Hand Size

The female character hand size in Skyrim was created in a deformed way. It wouldn’t be an issue if they were simply made smaller, but instead, the scale of the upper bones controlling the hands was reduced in the base skeleton. This affects weapon size and causes hand position misa...

For Honor Real Time Waiting

I have rebuilt the previously created Special Idle mod into a new version called For Honor Real Time Waiting.

The idea came from the Real Time Waiting mod, 

but I changed the way it functions — it now includes time acceleration and activates unique For Honor idle animations when used.

Smooth Special Idle - Pike / Spear

Up until now, there hasn’t been much difference between the supporter tiers. From now on, I plan to add some exclusive content for Tier 2 supporters and above. It won’t be anything too big—just one or two special idle animations per month.

Nobushi / Spear / Pike

I completely reworked the Nobushi moveset I had posted on Nexus a long time ago.
All the animations were remade from scratch, and unlike the old version’s concept, this one tries to capture the exact feel of For Honor’s Nobushi as closely as possible.

Please make sure to check the video to learn how to use each technique!

The supported weapons are those that include th...

For Honor in Skyrim

  • All known bugs have been fixed.

  • Dodging consumes 10 stamina.

  • While this doesn’t directly fix MCO’s lack of stamina consumption for unarmed power attacks, it has been adjusted so that using a power attack with the Brawler moveset will consume stamina.

The Nexus upload version includes the above changes.

NPC Block Loop Fix

Do NPCs block too much?

Have you ever encountered enemies who endlessly hold up their shields — refusing to attack or do anything else?

This mod fixes that issue.

It uses Open Animation Replacer (OAR) to cancel the block automatically when NPCs are moving while blocking, after a short delay.
