Draw Fix - Move Equip Animation Fix
Draw Fix - Move Equip Animation Fix
Fixes stiff upper body when drawing weapons
Skyrim uses a single, fixed upper-body animation when drawing a weapon.
This animation is designed to look natural only while standing still.
When triggered during movement, it causes the character’s upper body to lock in place, resulting in an awkward and unnatural appearance.
Draw Fix detects this situation and:
When drawing a weapon while moving → cancels the animation → instantly transitions to combat-ready idle
This simple logic provides a smooth and seamless solution to a long-standing animation issue.
This mod is built with a lightweight script that has no performance impact,
and it is flagged as ESL for maximum compatibility.
Compatibility
✔️ Fully compatible with most animation mods
✔️ Not affected by 1st-person mods (Draw Fix only activates in 3rd-person view)
✔️ Compatible with mods that change equip behavior
⚠️ Should also work with equip animation behavior mods, but further testing is recommended.

Wow, can this be done for other animations transitions? For example return to idle after animation(universal)?
Sorry, I didn’t understand what you meant.
