[REQ] Looting animation?

[rikulf]

Was wondering if anyone could implament a looting animation when you search dead bodys or open chests, I know NPC's do it, or alteast something like that. A mod similar to what I requested is out, but its for harvesting plants (Harvesting animation), I would do this my self since It seems simple ( but I could be horribly wrong ) It would add alot more immersion in my opinion to the game, instead of just walking up to a body and looking at a menu, then thats it.

Example of what I want,

Kill somebody,

Walk up to there body,

Search body(press e to search)

Charater plays animation stops while down,

search menu pops up,

Get what you need and leave menu,

Charcter resumes the animation and gets up.

 

(The animation I'm talking about is already in game, it's the one npc's use {guards in general} when they check dead bodys.)

 

I would love you forever if you could do this

i'd contact the author of the harvesting mod to see if it's possible to be applied to bodies. i'd assume yes. i used that mod and it seems to work most of the time as long as you are within a specific range of the pant, other wise you instantly get the item and the animation doesn't play, as in vanilla skyrim. that part kind of annoyed me so i disabled it.

I think this is possible, Because from Oblivion the person that created immerse first person view incorporated a 1st and 3rd person animation while looting bodies then after a short while inventory menu pops up.

@skrimish I'll try to message the guy that did harvest animation on the nexus to see if would try this.(hopefully he's an active modder) 

 

@Mailamea agree that it's possible, and I also know its possible to implement a mechanic to go to third person and walk to the dead body to do the animation, because the guy that does immersive beds uses it for his bed animation, I'm just not to sure on the difficulty of it, seems like a simple thing, but I bet it'll take hour's to actually get working right.

The animation from this  would suit your needs if it's the same one.

Yes, this would be even better imo, but which ever someone decides to use,  I would be happy with it.

Contacted the guy who made harvesting animation, and it turns out he's already making a mod that adds a animation to looting dead bodys and chests. Awesome ( he needs help with the dead body script though ) So if anyone wants to help him out I can tell him about it.

Also found this if this is usefull, DukePatrick creator of combat mods for Oblivion and Skyrim, made a quiver where you put your arrows on it realistically, by clicking on the quiver you go into a looting position and then inventory menu pops up.
