need help! I'm new and struggling

[Theblackfanf11]

So I'm new to modding and all I have gotten to is well getting mods to work in a game but the animations are all wack and I  can't seem to figure out why

You should start by getting a mod manager like "Mod organizer 2" or "vortex."

 

Also, which animations are you trying to change?

I've got mod organizer 2 and ZaZ paired with sexlab

Do it one step at a time because there is some possibility of problems because of things depending on eachother.

 

So, for now, uninstall all the sex animation mods and only install sexlab latest version. Run FNIS - if that's what you use. Then run the installer in game (last page in MCM).

 

You can then trigger animations with an npc to test. Just confirm you can get that working before going any further and adding ZAP.

Should I delete them from the whole thing or just the mod launcher?

If you are on mod organizer, unchecking a mod on the left side is essentially the same as deleting it entirely. You do not need to delete the mod thanks to that.

 

Something to take note of is when something overwrites another mod. It will show either a green + or a red - on the mod folder if it overwrites or gets overwritten.

 

Usually its fine, sometimes it matters. For example, xp32's skeleton  should probably never be overwritten, unless a mod specifically says to do it. An example of that would be Animated Beast Cocks mod, that specifically needs to overwrite it.

Just like RohZima said, do it slow and steady. Adding a lot of mods too quickly and then trying to play the game has a high chance of getting screwed up. If your animations are all wack then i'd look at the animation mod dependencies and their dependencies along with making sure FNIS is working as intended. Read up on mod pages carefully, there could be some settings you need to take care of in the MCM or something. Also run loot just to be safe.
