Make more animations available in spite of tags & other settings?

[LesboIsBesto]

Thought I had finished messing with AAF stuff to play more til I realized how little animations I was actually seeing vs what I had available. An ass eating animation from Hardship - beggar - whore played for me & I wondered, "Why has AAF never given me this animation before?" I never seen it from other mods or even from AAF's own dropdown menu that you can use without needing another mod to setup scenes. Then I checked the Admin panel in-game (Positions & Manifest tab) & saw just how many different animations I haven't seen yet. Granted many of them are because of furniture, simple poses or wrong creature but a big enough amount of them seem to boil down to just because of consensual vs nonconsensual tags mods look for, some animations not having tags like the Hardship one plus others not being a part of the big animation packs like Leito's, SavageCabbage, etc. Took me a bit to even track this animation down because of its name, where I realized its not part of the animation packs.

 

I already disabled enforcing genders when looking for animations, disabling aggressive tag settings in mods just swaps to consensual animations & not even all of them when I want ALL OF THEM. It just seems like all of this is not enough for AAF unlike SexLab where just one of these things was enough to make all animations available.

 

So the big question: How do I make more animations appear during ANY mod starting ANY sex scenes whether it's consensual or nonconsensual & especially if they're not from one of the animation packs from the "fucking guide"? At the very least, how do I get those non-pack animations to appear in AAF's dropdown menu the way those pack animations appear? I've seen that column/row setting in AAF scene settings that makes dance animations & some poses available but not the Hardship animation im looking for.

The size of the pack has no effect. The tags also have no effect in the wizard. Every animation installed will appear in the wizard when the conditions of selected actors and nearby locations would allow them to work.

 

If something you want to see is not appearing on the list its because you've not selected the actors it was made for or it requires a location object to be nearby.

forgot to add this to the main post, but I've had success already by deleting the hidden flag from any animations XMLs that had em.

Sorry for bothering, how did you do that?

look for the animation XMLs under AAF folder, open the "positionData.xml" of whatever animation in something like NotePad++, look for "IsHidden" near the top, usually the 2nd line, delete it & save
