An improved and expanded version of manaflow's "Potions Animated", this mod plays a short animation whenever you drink a potion or beverage. It's far more believable than quaffing potions instantly. Improvements over the original include the following:
- The 1st-person and 3rd-person animations now take the same amount of time (just under four seconds).
- Drinking no longer forces you out of the inventory, but rather queues animations to play when you return to normal gameplay.
- The weapon on your back can no longer become visible during the 1st-person animation.
- The animation is played not only for potions, but for beverages as well. (You can disable animations for beverages with the console command "set AnimateBeverages to 0" and re-enable it with "set AnimateBeverages to 1".)
- The mod has been tested, and bugs have been fixed, for as many different contingencies as possible (e.g. drinking while riding, drinking while looting, drinking while ragdolling--not that responsible adults do any of those things).
This mod does make Alchemy somewhat less useful compared to Restoration. I've implemented fixes for this in a separate "Alchemy Refinements" mod (http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/35649).
This mod can also be found on Steam Workshop at http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=138658318.
If you find any bugs or issues, please note them in the comments so I can promptly address them.
