Thanks for this excellent compilation, gopher!

Two comments...

First:
How did you manage to fire arrows in flight cam mode for this video? In my game, while the "tfc" command is active, I am unable to trigger the attack buttons (my left and right mouse buttons will only move the camera up and down). Is there some tweak or ini setting for this? Or a specific mod?

Second:
The ArrowTilt tweak (as described) will force the arrows to exactly hit the crosshair. This means linear movement, which is quite unrealistic in my opinion. I like it more - for more realism - if they hit somewhat below the crosshair, thus simulating a more ballistic flight curve. I've learned that this can be done by changing the two ini values to 0.0 instead of 0.7. Some people might prefer this over the "linear" one:
f1PArrowTiltUpAngle=0.0
f3PArrowTiltUpAngle=0.0

I just remapped my fire key to something else for that video

Awesome!
I'm in the low 20's with a Ranger type character, and boy does this breathe life into Archery! Thanks, man. Way to go!

Leave it to the Nexus to show me a layout for my archer! This video is just about the handiest thing ever, if you are an archer. Thanks to the Nexus, Gopher, and all the great modders who made those mods.

Realistic Ragdolls and Force is the one that's gotta be my favourite because i always hated how my enemies fly off when i shoot them with arrows as if i hit them with a destruction spell. Thanks for your videos, helps me find what i'm looking for. Kudos to you, Good sir!

Love your videos. But I have a problem, when I try to watch them on You tube it freezes I go to Task Manager it states that You Tube is not responding. I have to end the program there. There are other mode videos I watch on You Tube and yours and one other are the only that do that. I have checked my popup that is clear checked the firewall and it is clear there are no messages the screen just freezes. I run the latest ver of IE. The only time I can watch your video is when they are posted on Nexus. Any suggestions please.

Huh, my favorite part was always launching people off cliffs with arrows... I know it's unrealistic but it's so damn awesome. I use the rest of the archer mods though, including some new bows that modders have made. He should have talked about some of those, the vanilla bows are pretty lame.

question about the mods you are showcasing vs the video.

when you were showing the ragdoll mod did you have a mod that did the "bullet time" part?
i havent seen a mod that does it for archery and i saw it in there. cuz...

DO WANT
