I ended up using both Pandora and Nemesis, but honestly it feels like the worst possible solution.

Some mods only seem to work correctly with Pandora (for example Horsepower and some creature animation replacers), while others still seem to depend on Nemesis/XPMSE behavior generation.

My main issue is with XPMSE + Pandora:
when using Pandora only, some movement animations break. For example, if I block while moving, my character keeps the arms down instead of using the proper blocking locomotion animation.

Using Nemesis first and then Pandora “fixes” it somehow, but this setup feels extremely cursed and probably unstable long term.

So I’m wondering:

• how are people actually handling this nowadays?
• are most people still using Nemesis?
• is anyone running full Pandora successfully with XPMSE + SCAR + modern combat/animation setups?
• or is everyone secretly using both generators like me?

I’m running a pretty heavy modlist (~1150 mods) with SCAR, XPMSE, creature animations, etc.
