Looking to add an animation to another mod

[Paenumbra]

So I use spouses enhanced, and I've found a kissing animation that I really like, but it only ever plays in foreplay.

 

I wanted to add it to the list of kissing animations in spouses enhanced, so I skimmed over the folders and I can't seem to find anything regarding how to add or remove animations. SexLab's menu only allows me to adjust animations during the foreplay stage, and penetration stage, but nothing regarding kissing.

 

Before I go and ruin my mod setup, can someone maybe give me a bit of a guide or a direction to look.

 

I'm willing to provide more information if necessary.

A SexLab animation is composed of 3 main parts:

* The actual animation files, they are all ending in .hkx extension

* The definition of the animation in a FNIS file (to define an AnimEvent for each of these files)

* A little bit of code to create a SexLab anim by using the previous AnimEvents

 

It is not just moving some files from a mod to another, you need to define all of the abouve (copying and renaming the files, adding int the destination FNIS file the new events with new names, pinting to the new animation files, and last adding a new SexLab animation where the original mod was doing it.)

 

Complex? If you know how to do it it is a matter of minutes, if you never did it before then it is really complex.

Lovely.

 

Never done it before. I figured it would nothing more than a bit of scripting to add it to the useable 'kissing' animation lists. Guess I was wrong.

 

Thanks for giving me the info, it's much appreciated.

You are not wrong, actually.

 

It IS a little bit of scripting (to add the animation in SexLab)

And a copy with rename of a few files, and adding a few lines through a copy/paste from one file to another. (To make the animation files available in FNIS without the other mod.)

A very crude method - without scripting. 

 

Search animation from one that does not like you.

 

And replace the HKX (usually 1-4) with your kiss animation.

 

Rename your kiss animation in exactly the name of the replaced Animation.

 

Or, in simpler terms, replace files with keeping the file name.

So I could just rename the files and replace them?

 

That sounds a bit more easier, and sneakier. Sounds like I have some digging to do.

 

Thanks!

I should maybe state the animation is in SexLab. It appears in the list of animations. So it's that I would have to add it, since it's already there.

 

It's just seems like it's not scripted to play during "have your lips missed mine" kissing animations. Which is what I want to add it too. 

 

I'm going to see if I can get to play so that I can find it's files names, and see if what Andy said is a possibility.

Make a backup of the files before

Just skimmed the files, there is no animation folder in regards to Spouses Enchanced. So no simply replacing the animation.

 

Thanks for your idea though!

Probably this mod just call a QuickSex function from SexLab, so it may miss the animation you want.

[Paenumbra]

Maybe. Thanks for the help though!
