Strange finger shapes with weapon drawn

[Miko19]

Hello, everybody. I've installed the entirety of STEP Core a few days back, along with a few of the extended parts (not all due to heavy file size and a mediocre internet connection) and ever since I been troubled by something that really... how to phrase it... unsettles me. Precisely: characters' fingers being held in strange positions whenever they draw weapons.

 

I've installed XP32, FNIS, Dual Sheath etc according to the wiki guidelines. I know it's a skeleton mesh issue, but I can't really figure out a way to solve it.

 

Screenshot presenting the issue is attached to this post.

Never seen that before, but it has to be some mod. Either a replacer for bodies, hands, or animations.

Think they have just gone into gansta mode.. because you so rudely entered their hood! :o 

 

That said then if it is not a skeleton related issue then ... hmmm.

I haven't installed anything besides what's listed in the STEP Core 2.2.9 with the exception being HDT Physics/Equipment. I'll mess around to see if that causes the issue, but I remember having those "gangsta hands" even before adding HDT.

If I could script/mod (better than coding calculators in Pascal, that is), then you'd probably inspire me to create a gangland mod for Skyrim. "Create your own group of misfits&criminals and compete for the ultimate dominance of Skyrim! Will you create a mafia, or a loosely associated group of acquaintances? Will you oust the Thieves' Guild out of power and take over their enterprise, or integrate them into your own organization as a specialized cloak and dagger task force? That and much more awaits you in the Skyrim Organized Crime Overhaul! (SOCO)" 

 

Now back to the point: can I somehow extract the entire mod list from Mod Organizer somehow, post it here and try to figure out what did I eff up/get effed up in the process-... nevermind, I just did:

EDIT: I have discovered the mod responsible for their fingers becoming all wonky - "Fix Crossed Swords Fix Crossed Swords and Turn with Leg move" from the Better Turn Animation mod. I turned the update file off and BOOM, everything is the way I'd prefer it to be. No more Morthal gangstas now, but I'm happy either way :P
