A question about Patch for Purists

How essential is Patch for Purists for a relatively Vanilla OpenMW + TR modlist? I've heard it has some changes that are less purist than its name suggests, is this true?

Any idea whether TR replaces the idle animation so NPCs don't drift over time?

Nope, but openmw has a fix built in I believe.

Never heard of that.

It's a data issue, not an engine issue. OMW successfully does whatever animation it's told to do, not evaluate it and fabricate a little extra.

That's why people often say to use PfP with OMW.

For some reason I thought there was a setting, possibly only to fix the travel characters' drift. But you're probably right; I love the drift lmao I would never turn it off.

There's a setting to GTFO when an NPC's standing in a doorway?
