(sorry or double posting yet again) but damn my indecisioness. i am really bored of warriors, can't use stealth close combat very easily, and want to use bows, but then it defeats the point of this mod (cries)

The sword punch, decapitation and cutting in half will in the next update. I hate talking dates, as I´m constantly out of time, but I´m leaning towards next week.


As a bonus, I was thinking of adding the player the ability to dodge "normally", like NPC´s. This would be a quick avoidance move, really fast to pull off, and would help in fighting without a shield, with the sword punch. So when flipping forward, you would press naturally forward and flip. But, if you would press left, right or back and flip, you would dodge in that direction. It would require agility 50.


Shouldn´t be hard, the move is already there, isn´t it?


Heh, seriously I´m not shooting down GREAT ideas for fun, but it´s just that I don´t feel like reinventing the wheel.

TalkieToaster has been working on locational damage for months, I understood it´s a separate release, that can be used with this mod, when it comes out, pretty soon I guess.

niiccceee, at least we have regular updates. and heh i wanted to try and make a mod that made combat more realistic with archary, but i barley know the coding so yea. glad some people do ^^

Just open CS, choose Oblivion.esm in data files and when it´s loaded, go to "GamePlay Settings".

You can tweak much of the bow stuff just from there, and most the variables are explained in the CS Wiki (google that for link).


For example, up the damage multiplier for bows, and SAVE AS A NEW .ESP.

So it´s a mod. Then download Bow Sway, a mod which makes your bow crosshair sway, the amount depending on whether you stand or crouch, and your skill.


That´s a start at least.


And, the punch will make your life a bit easier without shield, you can hit when using bow as well, it´s a good way to earn yourself a couple of free hits or some room to breathe.

ahh thanks, lol. now all i need to do is work out how to use nif skope and stuff. oh and i have another idea, perhaps at a high level ahdn to hand you could have a neck snap ability? or because you are so strong the power to throw your opponent into walls with one punch

About the sneak kill idea... I found a great mod called Sneak Overhaul wich lets you customize a lot of the sneak features (damage multipliers, sneak penalties etc.) and it works great. With some of the multipliers you can backstab just about anyone at expert or master sneak level so I think that you should keep just to the fighter-class moves. I just can wait for the cutting/punching moves

You can get Sneak Overhaul here:

lol i use that mod, i just want a brutal dagger kill. you know because daggers are a fun murder weapon!

[}{ellKnight]

LOL You could add a blood spray effect in the neck area, just below the chin when you do a one-hit sneak kill with a dagger... Could you Skycaptain?

[tigershark13]

eheh even better, you make the neck be cut open and have a gurgled scream ^^
