Nemesis AAsets - how do they work?

[bnub345]

I'm trying to get ZAP 9 to work with Nemesis as part of my SE port, but I run into some problems. When I run it through nemesis, it gives me ERROR 1035 - Missing required option. I've narrowed it down to this part of the FNIS anim text:

 

AAprefix zac
AAset _mtidle 2
AAset _mt 2
AAset _mtx 1
AAset _sprint 2

 

If I comment out this part of the text, it generates without errors but then the game crashes. If anyone knows how to properly set this up for nemesis, I would really appreciate it. Or even where to find any documentation on how nemesis works.

You need a guide for nemesis for modders-not for users:-)-As long there ´s no clean and absolute guide how to add new idles and how NEMESIS is computing it, I would never install this mod.

Is zap working without this sort of animations? (without that AA-animations?-You can bypass that parts for a while)

I mean is nemesis able to clone the exactly fnis-compatiblebehaviors, which are used with the creation-kit to make them become assigned to their functions?

CK/SKYRIM uses the animation-behavior of ZAP(9)  in a very decent way.

 

And are the behavior-files, made by nemesis also working for NPCs?...Animals?

 

 

WARNING !!

ZAP is using a framework, which has info about animation-names and prefixes, which are bound with the info inside of the animation-behavior and as soon this is different from the FNIS printout, the framework can not being used any more by some sort of mods. NEMESIS has to create exactly the same behavior file if ZAP should be working correctly...at least I can not understand the fiddling around with NEMESIS instead of FNIS, as long it is a beta-stage and without more information for creators (guide). Nemesis is PCEA. That ´s why I can not install and use that.

It's very annoying that there is no documentation for nemesis. I mean absolutely nothing, the creator just says "contact me if you need help". And then hasn't been active for years. I think I got it to work, but only by disabling the things nemesis didn't like. So no crawling anims, no weapon anims for the whips, and of course the horse stuff won't work because no creature compatibility. I guess I'll include it as an option, there are a lot of mods on SE that absolutely have to use nemesis. If only there was a guide to make it work, this stuff can't be that hard. If FNIS can support it just fine, nemesis should be able to do the same. I just don't know how.

The author of nemesis is not active?

Let me know HOW you apply the other animations, please...

Hi. I know I'm late. But I was facing the same problem.

How did you fix it? Trying to comment them out creates more errors.

That error is printed from 7 different locations in registeranimation.cpp. Find where Nemesis keeps its log file and analyze the error there. If it doesn't include the file and line number where the error occured, see about enabling some kind of debug mode then test again.

 

Once you know where the error is being thrown from, I can probably tell you what is missing.

I think it might just work out of the box with Pandora now, which you should use because it's better than either FNIS or Nemesis these days. But I still have the old patch laying around. Of course a few animations won't work at all now because I had to disable all the bits causing errors.

Thank you so much!

 

Well, I'm using LE. Not SSE. So, Pandora isn't an option.
