About this mod Machine translation
Combining various 2h greatsword animations from, built into a mod that I personally think creates a better set of greatsword/half-sword friendly animations.
I've never been satisfied with the vanilla Greatsword anime!
But currently SSE's 2h animation models are rarely suitable for longer swords or half-weapon weapons.
My favorite animation mode tends to fall short in some areas. They're still great, but I'm picky.
Rather than torture myself on these tiny details, I simply combined the best animations of all these mods,
and combine them into one mod. The result is a smooth, immersive animation overhaul
This makes the great game feel more like a makeshift sword-sized weapon rather than a ridiculous vanilla sword.
That's why I highly recommend using it to get the 2h longsword model.

I didn't do any of these animations

I've never been very happy with vanilla greatsword animations!
But currently SSE has very few 2h animation mods befitting of a more longsword or half-hander style of weapon.
My favourite animation mods out there tend to fall short in certain areas. They're still great mods, but I'm very picky.
Instead of torturing myself over these tiny details, I simply combined the best animations from all of these mods,
and put them together into a single mod. Resulting in a smooth and immersive animation overhaul
that makes greatswords behave much more like an interim longsword-sized weapon, rather than the ludicrous and fugly vanilla swords.
Which is why I highly recommend getting a 2h longsword mod with it.

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
- Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
- Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.
Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
