Animation Styles: 1 Issue

There seems to be one issue that may cause problems for some people that want to use the new animation styles. Robes.

Armor/clothing with "robe" parts that are from the CEP (namely, all except the default 1st four), do not work properly with the animation styles. The robes do not properly conform to the alternative movements and appear to break apart the character temporarily. I found this particularly funny with my rapidly-attacking monk in his shadowhide raiment.

There is no known fix for this issue. Perhaps a fix will be released in the future, since the ACPv4 animations are actually a beta release right now.

For now, I would suggest sticking to normal animation styles if you wear an outfit with a CEP robe part...the comical aspect of the robe not looking or moving right gets old pretty quick.

All the other armor parts from CEP work normally. Just not the robes.

Say, any news on updated animation styles that work with CEP robe parts?

I discovered today that using the kensai style of animation makes my Elven female scout lose her thighs and pelvis when she's wearing her favorite CEP armor, the culottes style with the studs all over. (Animation works fine with regular old trousers.)

Has you downloaded Manny's CEP Robe fix for this particular issue?

It fixes most of the CEP robes...there are however some which still breaks the character apart when trying out certain styles.

Download page.

Thanks, but I do have that pack already installed.

I also noticed that the Shield style messes up with this CEP armor.

The fix has some flaws in it still, and there's a bunch of new robes introduced since the fix was put on the downloads page years ago that aren't covered by said fix. I can't say when I'll get around to updating it and fixing the glitches though. It would be a very long and tedious process (checking out each robe for each race for each gender in each animation style, noting which work, which need fixing, and even just the process of remembering HOW I made the fixes in the first place

Thanks for the info!

Nothing critical, I'm satisfactorily working with the lovely animations that do work with the CEP robe.

Or I could always change her back to skintight leather pants instead of this CEP culotte armor.
