Description
Item Activation uses a spell animation called castout. This hak speeds up that animation and modifies it to a slight head nod. It also removes the 'PlayerName uses item's special power.' console message, and increases the Unique Power targeting range from short to very long.

::Revisions:: 1.1 - 1.30/SoU compatibility

::Credits::
Kinarr Geycloak's modifications to the a_ba_casts animation were used as a base, so this hak should be 100% compatible with non-clipping cloaks.

::Known Issues::
+ Sometimes the item activation animation starts from a combat stance, other times it does not. This is related to activating more than one time per round and likely cannot be fixed.
+ Equipped weapons will briefly disappear from the player's hands. Some animations, such as wave, allow the weapon to remain visible, so it is definately possible.
+ Roughly 70% of the spells use the castout animation, so this hak will impact those spells. Fortunately, most of those spells also have a conjuration animation (e.g. the 'particle effects') so it is not too noticable. If you absolutely must have a trailing animation other than the nod, extract the new spells.2da and replace the castout animation with castup for all spells except the activate item.

That's very likely, and often true of the older content.

To make it work now, you probably have to take the 1.69 versions of a_ba_casts and spells.2da, then apply only the changes from this hak. From a superficial reading, I think you'd replace the castout animation section in the former and the two unique power spell lines in the latter.

However, in 1.69 it might be easier to have items cast a Player Tool feat, which doesn't have any animations.
