NiOPA Hotkeys and Skeletons
🕑 Added 2021-10-14 14:10:25 +0000 UTCI come bearing gifts. As this is quickly becoming halloween season, nothing more apropriate than posting skeletons.
This is 2 mods in 1 post actually.
For those who dont know, NiOPA (NiOverride Pose Adjustments) is a screenshot utility mod that allows repositiong of selective bones on a character, helping to make some posing issues in screenshooting go away by allowing pose adjustments, and allowing a new world of possibilities when posing. These mods are designed to work with it, and ultimately improve the quaility you can achieve with screenshooting.

The first, I called "NiOPA Hotkeys".
- What this thing does, is add an MCM menu to NiOPA that allows you to change its hotkeys in game. The original NiOPA came with a json file where you were supposed to be able to edit the control hotkeys, by looking at the keycode numbers page and editing it as a text file. As annoying as this already was, it never worked for me and every time I tried, it just broke the mod irreversivebly and I was forced to use the hotkeys as they came. Well, not anymore since I've tested this thing and it seems to be working perfectly.
- It does require, however, the original NiOPA which I believe can be found Here for LE and Here for SSE
- A good idea would be to merge the edits on my plugin into overwriting the quest form at the original NiOPA plugin to save some plugin slots, but I preferred not to do it myself on release and list NiOPA versions as a separate requirement instead. TESXEdit is an excellent tool and can complete the merge in a few clicks and a single drag and drop procedure.

The second mod is Better Joint Ratios Skeleton for NiOPA - LE Version.
- I've been using the Better Female Ratios Skeleton for LE for ages. What this mod does is improve the shape of body joints by editing a few scaling values on the skeleton's bones. It is fully upgraded and compatible with XPMSE Skeleton, but the problem is it was not compatible with NiOPA skeleton so both mods couldn't be used together.
- But then I found out someone made an SSE Skeleton that does in fact combine both, so I ported it back, and tried on my end and looks like it works.
- I've also patched it to be ready to use with All Geared Up Derivative (AllGUD) so it comes ready to just install and use.
PS: I've noticed some people seems mistrusted of the screenshots on the skeleton's respective pages, but I can testify that the changes do look better, at least for me as I've used them in all my characters for a few years already, and my screenshooting work should be proof of it.
Once again, thank you all my awesome and wonderful Patrons, both old ones and new, it is thanks to your support that I'm enouraged to keep making things, and I hope this might come in handy for a lot of people.
