No custom animation possible for Skyrim? Wrong. FNIS Behaviors allows other mods to add different types of animations to the game: idles/poses, sequenced, arm offset, furniture, and paired animations, killmoves, and creature animations.
And, with the demonstration mod FNIS Spells the user has a means to display almost all animation files. Dance animations included.
Note: You will have to run a generator tool GenerateFNISforUsers.exe (part of FNIS Behavior) every time you have installed or uninstalled FNIS, or an FNIS based mod. Or when new Skyrim versions have changed behavior files.

Multi-language support: Anyone willing to translate the Generator text? Right now I need help with translating the additional FNIS 5.2 text pieces for all available languages, except English and German. But I would also appreciate any new language not yet covered.

Recent Changes
2014/11/06
FNIS Behavior 5.2
- Added (modder) parameter to make animations send arbitrary trigger events (e.g. to allow animation triggered soundplay: "-TSoundPlay.NPCHumanBlacksmithHammer/1.833333", or to synchronize scripts with animations)
- Removed "Bad Installation" warning for cases where the user has missed to properly relocate the steam directory
- Added Hungarian (thank you Luke2135) and updated Russian (thank you kapasov) language files
Although this release only has little functional enhancements, it was necessary to make some structural changes. And I also made some minor fixes which had long been due. I have thoroughly tested changes and release. But I always tend to forget something, and I don't want to make another main file update withing a few days.

Installation (short version)
- Install FNIS Behavior V5_2 -- ALWAYS necessary
- Install Creature Pack V5_1 (optional, necessary for creature animation mods)
- Install FNIS Idle Spells V5_0_1 -- ADD-ON for the spells (optional, necessary for the spells)
- Install other FNIS dependant mods (see mod list below)
- Goto to your Skyrim Installation directory(usually C:/Program Files (x86)/Steam/SteamApps/common/skyrim), and from there to [color=salmon]Data/tools/GenerateFNIS_for_Users
- Start GenerateFNISforUsers.exe AS ADMINISTRATOR (part of FNIS Behavior, and [color=red]ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY, or NOTHING works)
- Select Behavior patches (ONLY those you need!)
- Click "Update FNIS Behavior"
When you exit GenerateFNISforUsers.exe, you will be asked if a shortcut to the tool shall be created on your desktop.
Say "YES" (strongly recommended - you will need the generator quite frequently)
- For more detailed NMM and manual installation directions see "Installation (extended)"
- If you are new with installing mods, check the Wiki [url=http://wiki.tesnexus.com/index.php/Installing_Mods_Using_NMM]Installing Mods Using NMM[/url]
- If you need a illustrated direction on how to install FNIS, check out the article [url=http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/articles/540]Installation Guide FNIS / GenerateFNISforUsers.exe[/url]

Problem shooting "Installation Problems"
When all NPCs move with the dreaded STIFF "half-T" POSE, then this is NO FNIS bug: YOU HAVE DONE SOMETHING WRONG DURING INSTALLATION!
- Remove the desktop GenerateFNISforUsers.exe desktop short-cut
- Re-install FNIS Behavior EXACTLY as described in the "Installation (extended)"
- Fix all errors in the generator's text field, and give note to all warnings - Errors definitely WILL, Warnings CAN indicate causes of the "half-T" problem
- DON'T try to be smart moving things around - and DON'T call the generator from 7Zip, WinRar, ....
If the problem persist AND you are using a LEGAL, STEAM based version of Skyrim then do the following:
- Send me a personal message WITH YOUR LOG FILE (data/tools/GenerateFNIS_for_Users/temporary_logs/GenerateFNIS_LogFile.txt), AND
- Report your problem WITH SUFFICIENT and PRECISE information in the FNIS discussion thread. Avoid meaningless information like "glitches", "didn't work", "tried all different ways 3 times"
NOTE: I will NOT HELP any PIRATES! First, I don't support people that don't support Skyrim. And second, I don't waste my time chasing down problems which only occur with illegal installations.
