About this mod:

If you ever missed customizable facial animations or just proper headtracking (eyetracking) from the slow-mo VATS cameras, then this mod may sound interesting to you.

It adds a bit more RPG elements to the game by enabling headtracking and allowing you to select from a variety of facial animations for your character. In the vanilla VATS, headtracking (eyetracking) is not available and the player character just looks "somewhere". Also, headtracking now applies to non-FaceGen standard characters (non-humans, in other words) like Super Mutants, Robots, Feral Ghouls, Bloatflies, etc. (In vanilla, headtracking is only available for the Human Race).

The mod supports multiple animations, where each is seen in a different situation based on a multi-level system.

1. "Base level" ( if not in Kill Move and not being Too Close; default expression: aiming, focusing )
2. Kill Move ( amused, joyful face might just fit )
3. Too Close ( lets you choose a separate anim if you're very close to the target; maybe Nervous as it's a "dangerous move" )
4. Gender ( different expressions for female and male targets; like being flirty to gals, smug to guys; available on all levels )


Available facial animations:

0: Angry/Hatred
1. Joyful/Amused
2. Psychopathic/Sinister Smile
3. Aiming/Focusing
4. Flirty
5. Puzzled/Confused
6. Disgusted
7. Nervous
8. Surprised/"Second thought"
9. Friendly w/ Self Confidence
10. Smug/Condescending
11. The Professional

I have made many pictures of the expressions... check out the mod pictures.


Options:

Mod settings can be changed anytime (even ingame) just like the mod can be turned off too. The .ini file is in Fallout 4/Data/F4SE. No need to "refresh" the .ini. The mod detects changes at runtime.

VATSEmotion.ini:
[Settings]
bModActive=1 ( 0 if inactive )
iFaceAnimF=3 ( 3 is the index of the facial animation, see above. Used when not in Kill Move and Too Close; female target )
iFaceAnimM=3 ( for male and ungendered VATS targets )
iKillMoveFaceAnimF=1 ( in Kill Move; female target )
iKillMoveFaceAnimM=1 ( in Kill Move; male target )
bHeadtrackingOn=1 ( whether your character is looking "in the eyes" of the target )
iTargetTooCloseFaceAnim=7 ( if you're too close to the VATS target, you can select another animation )
iTargetTooCloseDistance=250 ( determines what is too close; 250 game units is ~4 yards or ~3.6 meters)
bIgnoreTooCloseInKillMove=1 ( whether the "too close" behavior is ignored in Kill Move )
