RAID 5th anniversary offer: use my link and redeem the promo code FESTIVAL5 to get: x50 Magic Brews, 500k Silver, x1 Tayrel Epic Champion! Starter pack worth $100 for free iOS/Android/PC: t2m.io/SynGaming Link for IOS users to enter Raid Shadow Legends codes: plarium.com/en/redeem/raid-sh... Hi guys! Episode 3 of animation coverage is finally here. This video is not my proudest creation, but due to the content drought, I wanted to upload something relatively quickly. This is due to the fact that half of my Dawnguard Remaster footage getting corrupted, hence why that video has gone MIA. I will just need a bit more time to get everything sorted, so until then, we'll focus on regular Skyrim modding coverage. Q: "What armor are you using at -insert timestamp here-?" A: Feel free to leave a comment, I do read all of them, and I will make sure to respond as soon as I can. Q: "Mod List?" A: There are 2 visual overhauls on my Discord that you can access, with a guide holding your hand from start to finish. It's what my own work in progress mod list is based on. The mod list used in this video is currently private and will be released some time in the future, once I feel like it's a complete product. Q: "Can you cover console mods?" A: Sorry, but most likely not. Technical capability for consoles is very limited, and my main focus is on PC. Q: "Where is the Dawnguard video?" A: Don't even get me started. This video has had many setbacks, and just when I thought everything was done and could finally release it, a bunch of my footage got corrupted during one of the import processes. Luckily, the process of recovery was mostly successful, but my entire project is screwed up. And that requires more time to sort out, so at this point, I'll stop promising release dates, and just say that it will be released when it's ready. Q: "Why do you have so many female characters in your videos?" A: I like women. If you have any questions for me, please ask down below. Once again, I read most of the comments, and would be glad to answer your questions.

Everything looks smooth and generally good, especially the combat related animations. Man I always wish you'd share your loadorder, cause I really think you have the best overall modlist, imo.

12:13 that 'cut' was great...

[@MuraCasardis]

Thanks for featuring my Jarl Sitting Animations! I'm not sure if it was featured before, but for NPCs, I highly recommend checking all of CHIMGarden's animation mods. They make NPCs so much more lively.

You're welcome! Yes, I'll be showcasing these next episode :)

Animations make and break it for me when it comes to a solid list. Great vid as always brotha 🍻

[@shellymars9961]

It's the same with me. I've even been known on occasion to play a class purely because I loved its animations.

It's kind of hilarious how with every upload, you manage to surprise me with incredible presentation and editing. You should also consider expanding past Skyrim modding coverage.

Dragons Dogma 2 weapon movesets and dragon age mache staff moveset? Two of the most epic and badass movesets combined? (plus the amazing bow-combat movesets you cowered?) COUNT ME IN! that’s so freaking awesome I wasn’t aware of these absolutely stunning mods! Thank you!

@SynMods which armor mods do you use for Imperials and Stormcloaks? They look stunning and great video, as always :)

[@mikol0070]

Would love to see you do a video on modpacks, they seem to be all the rage lately. Packs like those found on Wabbajack, or Nolvs v6, Eldergleam, Ultima

[@SynMods]

It's not something I am on 100% decided on, but I am considering it and can say it will most likely eventually happen.

[@merttttttttttttttttt]

This is just amazing, no wonder we keep going back to Skyrim, man I fucking love this game ❤

Goodness, that female preset at 3:59 is drop dead gorgeous, I would kill for that preset.

Thank you for the video, these look great. Do you know of any mods for if you want your character to be left-handed.

[@Mustang-fu6on]

Mate, that Ciri appearance you have is gorgeous. Could you share it, if it's not too much of a bother?

[@bloodywanker49]

I would also love to know where I can download the hair style! Especially since its animated!

[@icanttiemyshoe9005]

Completely unrelated question as it's nothing to do with animation mods, but does anyone know what mod he's using to be able to get the tattoo on her leg at 7:45 and the one at 8:42? Are they part of some add on for Racemenu? Also if anyone knows the name of the armour mod(s) he's using for his female characters in this video, especially the rogue looking one and the green dress one it'd be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

[@alexsonicz8388]

Bloodskall blade ,u make it look so frightening and easy 😮😊

[@Gyrfalcon312]

Damn... the Skyrim modding community continues to amaze me. Always something new, always something that's better than what came before!

[@travis2585]

So if I use both of the mods you showcased that provide new idle torch or sitting animations, will the game be able to pull from both mods and randomly choose animations from either one? or will it only be able to use the ones that are placed lowest in the load order? I’ve never tried to use multiple animation replacer/adders before

[@heygdog7381]

What dodge mod are you using in the video? I haven’t been able to get any that function on the most recent steam version.

[@Boomslayer19]

What kind of finishers are those is that a mod or just clever editing if it's a mod what mod?

[@Antonioinho]

What armors are that in the video? Do you use mods for skills perks, class, etc?

[@harrybroaddus846]

Well done!

[@gurukof]

9:00, 9:55 whats are those finisher animation? they are cool AF i highly doub it are from violens since i think i ve seen pretty much all of those a million of times are those from the leviathan pack? also whats the armor set for the female in 4:00 if there is a red one i need it man i love your editing prowess i know making these videos take a lot of time and effort so just here to tell you we appreciate that

Insane video as always. I also would like to know what Killmove mod you use

[@Flash36593]

Hey Syn. Can i know that outfit female character was wearing ? I need that one

[@epiphaner]

Thanks for mentioning some animation mods do NPC's as well. I only play in first-person with vanilla combat, so getting to know some mods that focus on the world around you instead of the player character is always a treat. The only thing I'm still actively searching for is some mods that make the NPC's more detailed without making them more beautiful.

[@callahan123]

True Faces is one of many mods with that in mind. I don´t use it, but if you want to play vanilla-style, that could be for you.

[@epiphaner]

@@callahan123 thank you for the suggestion. I'll check it out! 😁

It's actually cut content that was meant to be included. You can access it by using Windhelm Expansion city mod.

[@sadeghdark5985]

i love your videos and actually your videos helped me a lot to choose what i want, between all these incredible mods! but there is one thing that really messed my game each time i start modding and i have to delete everything and start from scratch! since update many mods stopped working and some mods are not compitable with each others, can you make an exclusive video of only combat mods that still works and also works great together...there are so many mods out there about combat that each adds new animation and dodge to the game, but which one is better and gives you better experience if you combine them i'll really appreciate it if you do

[@yllbardh]

"Go for the eyes, they said"

[@tonyhamilton6948]

I like the mod for gand to hand, Female walking/running and the Archery shooting and fighting. Are these mods available for guys like me who have Xbox one and is there a mod that removes that jumping lunge?

[@m4rc0svsc]

where did you find the gradiator armor and ciri preset?

[@SynMods]

Ciri preset is private and gladiator armor is called, well, Gladiator Armor. Made by SunJeong.

[@Volcannon]

No link for the Open Animation Replacer/Paired Animations?

[@user-sb1ky3ns6g]

I might missed smth but what ENB is he usin???? cabbage? but mine cabbage looks different

[@Darkenneko]

Can anyone help me? The idle animations work, the non-combat animations work, but anytime I go to swing any weapon, it just reverts to vanilla animations? When I attempt to power attack it looks like it starts a different animation and then quickly corrects to vanilla? This is driving me crazy, I have the dodge framework working, the 2-mouse speed animations, but it's just combat animations that are the problem. I use the new Pandora engine instead of Nemesis.

[@Darkenneko]

It seems with the latest BFCO update, the problem has solved itself, so if anyone else has this issue, hopefully they see this comment.

[@Darmowy_Ptak]

is your modlist gonna be shared with us? Or is it on patreon maybe?
