Animations not fluent

[Nichoice]

For some strange reason, lately animations haven't been firing off fluently. 

 

What I mean is, when the animation starts, Either 1 party or both remain standing. 

 

It is not until I manually press the hotkey for the next stage do they begin. 

 

Anyone know what could be causing this?

 

Its not a huge problem, just a minor inconvenience. It could be due to my script intensive mod list. 

 

(Not at home atm can't post list and logs)

Not enough info to help really. But I've found the number one cause of animation delays in my game is too many mods firing scripts at the same time, it can even be one mod's scripts going into a frenzy. Check your Papyrus logs. 

 

If you use Mod Organizer, it might be that you've installed more than one mod that covers the same animation sets - that's caused me no end of grief before now, no idea why though maybe the FNIS patch plays a role somehow.

 

 NMM overwrites files so in theory that shouldn't happen, but many people have had issues where it appears NMM hasn't cleanly removed old files and just dumps new ones over the top  so you end up with a tangled mess of broken crap. I've found when that happens it's usually best to remove all your anim mods and start afresh. 

 

If it turns out to be script related, you've two major options - remove some scripted mods,  or attempt to give Papyrus more resources, which is really only masking an underlying cause that will probably bite you on the arse later anyway.

Ya I assumed it was that, I have quite a few script heavy mods going on at the moment. 

 

Just realized logging wasn't set in ini, need to set and post logs.

EDIT: Attached logs now, please let me know if you see anything. 

 

Perhaps I will try uninstall arousal cause I see quite a few checks made by it in the logs, perhaps that is what is slowing it down. (I don't think I have anything that requires arousal).  But that would mean I might have to start a new game or clean it the best I can. 

 

The animations it seems does play, then reverts back to standing positions (sound fx playing) and remains that way until I press next stage key. Same applies if I set auto advance in MCM. 

 

I don't have any other animation sets except for ZAZ, not sure when I updated SL since 1.57 over on top of each other or I uninstalled with NMM then installed SL 1.59b. Unless naming paths changed or whatnot, files should just be overwriting each other. So I shouldn't as you say in theory have 2 sets of animations, and even if I should the esm and esp should be correctly pathed to only one set of animations. 

 

So I assume it must just be my crazy amount of scripted mods. 

[Nichoice]

if someone could take a look at the log as that is beyond me. 

 

Perhaps someone could confirm that its just because of a script overload as opposed to me having multiple animation sets. 

[Nichoice]

Found out what it was, and dam it all to hell. 

 

Its equipping overhaul. 

 

One of its scripts must be running constantly for the geared up option to check weapons and thats causing the actors to reset. 

 

Dam it, I really like that mod. 

 

I have no idea what I can do to "fix" this. Not sure I even can Gonna have to just live with it I guess 

 

As far as I know there is no way to set scripts in priority is there or pause a script when another plays

 

This is way beyond me, and any tinkering with either mod will probably break it

[Guest]

Yeah, you're hitting the same wall we all have at some point, scripted mods tend to be self-limiting in the sense that for every individual setup there's a point when the whole thing starts to shake itself to pieces.  

 

If you're not already, consider moving to Mod Organizer, it was made for those of us who like to run lots of things, but not necessarily all at the same time. That's when it's profile capability comes into it's own.
