SexLab animations - my "ratings"

[XunAmarox]

I decided to go through and write down what I thought of each of the animations and I figured it might be useful to other users so I figured I'd share. If you want to give your own ratings feel free! It may also serve as a good starting point for anyone that wants to make animations for SexLab so they know what they could fix or what could use better animations.

 

ap anal, good
ap face down anal, very good except the butt of the one on top looks deformed. perhaps if the crouching stance were used as a base or something?
ap bed missionary, first part silly rest ok = bad
arrok missionary, ok
arrok leg up = good male, bad futa
missionary = good
rough missionary = good
doggy style = very good
rough doggy = good
arrok doggystyle = very good, one of best
sideways fuck = ok
standing fuck = very good, one of best
reverse cowgirl = meh
hugging fuck = good
arrok cowgirl = very good
arrok standing fuck = good
arrok reverse cowgirl = very good, looks like anal
arrok sideways fuck = ok
arrok hugfuck = ok
arrok anal = meh
ap cowgirl = maybe good male but dumb futa
ap leg up fuck = meh
ap holding leg up = arms clip through legs, severely deformed butt
ap standing = forearms clip into butt badly
ap shoulder = deformed butt, but good from front
ap kneeling bj = good, would be better w/ open mouth phenome
ap boobjob = good-ish
arrok rape = good if not for teabag ending. would be okay if removed
arrok sitting foreplay = needs strap-on enabled for female but ok for what it is
arrok standing foreplay = ok but hands clip into hips if faces aligned
arrok foreplay = good but needs strap-on enabled for f/f otherwise silly due to 2nd stage invisible cock stroking, 1st stage great for f/f, last stage either would be okay
arrok boobjob = very good
rough behind = totally borked, stuck 12-15 inches apart
arrok blowjob = very hard to align since it moves so fast so it ends up looking very weird
ap standing bj = good, would be better w/ mouth open
tribadism = good les
ap skull fuck =hands clip into the head, mouth not open... meh, no good
arrok lesbian = 'okay'; breast deformed stage 1 and arms clip through butt / breasts clip through sides in 69
arrok 69 = stage 1 so far off takes like a minute to adjust, also doesn't work with even actor height f/f in 69 stage since there will either only be 6 or 9 with stroking air or rubbing head against stomach, neither of which even remotely close at the same time, the other stages are decent though
arrok sitting foreplay = decent
devil's 3 way = alignments are so bad it'll take like 3 mins to set up each stage, but other than that it's okay

Unless you can animate yourself you need to not use words like "retarded" or "silly". 

 

I see nothing wrong with giving a blow by blow of issues with particular animations as that is indeed helpful, however you need to edit out all the personal comments\insults and stick with constructive criticism or I'll have to lock the thread.

 

Example of an acceptable criticism:  "arrok blowjob = very hard to align since it moves so fast so it ends up looking very weird"

 

Example of an unacceptable criticism: "arrok rape = good if not for retarded teabag ending"

 

Please make the corrections as soon as possible.

 

Thanks,

Greg

 

PS:  You're welcome to PM me to go over this further.  Once the corrections are made I will delete this post.

Personal comments.... insults..? What.

 

Sheez... people are so sensitive. Fine, whatever. Fixed.

[KindMan]

While I don't remember the specifics of most animations enough to comment, there are two things I agree on:

• arrok rape. Great animation, the first part looks a bit "wooden" but the biggest problem (for me) is the teabag ending, I absolutely loath that.
• rough behind. Basically a great animation (actually one of my favourites), but unfortunately buggy. I was able to get it to work with careful alignment in earlier versions, in current sexlab, at least with SOS, it is completery borked, male's junk is dislocated from his body and floating half a metre behind his body...

[Madmartigan34]

I turn off anything that says "Sideways" or "Standing".

 

Look, I don't make animations... I don't don't know HOW to make them... The most i've ever done is stationary poses. So I feel like a complete dick for critiquing them....

 

But in SexLab the only ones I like are the Missionary and the Cowgirl where the lady is grinding her hips on the man's lap (That animation series is hot as SHIT to me.)

 

Doggy style is my favorite sex position, but the animations for it with SexLab seem slow and sadly unappealing to me for one reason or another.  Plus, without better breast physics... the lack of real swinging boobz makes Doggystyles less fun.

 

I applaud everyone's work, and if I were a rich man I'd love to give these animators enough money to retire off of for their efforts in all of this.

Is there a good way to 'preview' them?

If you have a spouse get Lover's Comfort and then uncheck all of them except the one you want to see. That's how I did it.

easiest and most simplistic way to get a very basic preview, would be to strip your player, open console, click the player so 0000014 is selected, and type "sae <animation file name here>" and you will start playing that animation, just press jump to clear it.  for example, "sae arrokcowgirl_s3_a1" would make you start playing the third stage (s3) animation for the female actor (a1) in the Arrok Cowgirl (arrokcowgirl) animation. Check the Data\meshes\actors\character\animations\SexLab folder for a list of all the names.

 

You wouldn't see what it would look like animating with another actor, but if all you want is to see a general idea of what the animation looks like, there you go.

I wonder if there is any way to fix some of the animations where the "top's" butt looks horribly deformed, ap facedown anal being the main culprit, the animation would be really good if it didnt look so odd

Thanks, Xun & Ashal.

There is way, but you need to import the animation with TBBP skeleton. The real problem is that those animation with deformed butt they used the normal skeleton who don't have butt bones in them. so they are not animated and then becomes deformed when the animation plays.

 

AP face down the pelvis is rotated to much and making the mesh totally deformed especially the leg part when viewing close.

Hope someday Grumpf, Gregathit and Nusbie will do animation for Skyrim. Their animations for Oblivion are bloody brilliant, no less.

I actually kind of like the AP Bed Missionary....
