Need a guide for installing animation packs.

I was trying to set up various mods, and got stuck on trying to install animation packs, I don't really know how to install these in the slightest and the only installer i could find is not for the version I am on (anniversary edition)

If you mean SLAL packs these don't need any special consideration in regards to AE or any other stuff. As long as the animations in question aren't direct LE files you're fine. Any port to SE will work. As for how to install them it's no different than other mods, the only thing you need to do is remember to run FNIS and once you're ingame register them in the SLAL MCM.

1. Get SLAL and its requirements (some of these are skse plugins, so verify you're getting ones compatible for your specific game and SKSE versions).
2. Get and install your SLAL anim pack (verify you're getting files ported or made for SE).
3. Once all of the above is installed install/use FNIS as usual (once it's done check all the text FNIS prints to see if you don't have any warnings, if you do address them).
4. If all the above went smooth you should be able to go ingame, open your Mod Configuration menu, find the SLAL one and press "Enable all" then "Register enabled" or something, these should be in one of the first pages of the SLAL MCM. Wait for a while and a message will confirm the number of anims you just registered.
5. Use whatever mod you use to start SL animations. You should see your new animations at some point.
