Dear Loverslab Community

As you can tell by the title I managed to find the required tools for animation making in skyrim.

I'm sharing my knowledge for 2 main reasons :

First : When i first wanted to learn how to make animations in skyrim I couldn't find the tools and was immediately discouraged, i don't want this to happen to anybody else, instead i hope that this post encourages people to pick up animation making and start making their own idles, sex anims, combat anims, riding styles etc..

Second : I spent so much time playing with you guys's mods, anims, armors, enbs that i felt like "giving something back" and since my modding skills aren't even worth mentioning (they're so bad) i did this.

For anybody that doesn't know, Animation making in skyrim requires very specific programs one of them is 3ds max 2012 and Havok Content Tools both of them can't be obtained legitimately anymore. 

Why you may ask ? 

Havok Content Tools : The company was bought by microsoft who restricted the download for public. 

3ds max 2012 : It's just an old version, too old for autodesk (company that made 3ds max and other cools software check them out!) hence why they decided to just remove it from their website. 

 

Certainly there are other programs which can be used for animation making and you are more than welcome to introduce them to me. 

Nonetheless 3dsmax 2012 is the more common and has a ton of tutorials which makes animation just so easy to learn.

 

To get to the point.

 

Havok Content Tools is avaliable under the following link : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U88C9K-mSHs it's a youtube video with another link in the description which takes you 2 a google drive page that has the version you need (2011 3.0) i didn't wanna post the google drive link cause credit has to be given to that person leave a like or something i don't know.

 

3ds max 2012 : you need a torrent downloader like bittorrent or utorrent once you have that go to thepiratbay which is a torrent database, luckily for us it has the  version of 3ds we need uploaded by the user dinkov. just go there and search max 2012 or something sort by SE (seeds) and download it. Bare in mind though that downloading torrents is always a bit dangerous so only download it from the user i just mentioned.

 

This sums up  how I got my tools for making animations IF there are other ways or you consider my was obsolete please tell me, post them below or make a new thread that explains so; "i'm always ready for a chat".

 

Thank you very much for your time 

 

Sincerely elswyrr

Hey, really appreciate putting up those files to make making animations a lot more accessible for the community. Unfortunately I'm having a lot of trouble getting Havok and 3dsmax working together without errors, can anyone figure out what's going wrong here?

So I downloaded from the source you advised, but ran into a problem during activation. The instructions provided indicate I need to run it through Xforce Keygen, a software that generates activation codes for software. Thats all fine, I can do that, but I cannot for the life of me find Xforce keygen software anywhere. Where did you get yours (assuming you followed the same process I did.
