Hi,

I have release my mod - Nature of the beast few months ago. At day one it had only night eye ability, a sophisticated one but not fully operational (there were some issues). Now after few months of constant development I have reached conlusion that this is no longer the same mod. Currently my mod covers such features as immersive and fully automatic night vision that changes the visual effect gradually instead of binary approach that seems to be common. It has quite realistic smell lesser powers that provide the player with many informations about surrounding actors (names if you know current unique actor - read you can learn the scent of the actor, race, sex, whether the actor is dead, vampire or werewolf) takes into account the strength and speed of wind and actually enables you to track the target by showing you its direction (but not the target itself). Additionally smell is a two edge sword, since many actor can sense you as well and become alarmed. I have added adrenaline surge ability that will enable to boost some of your physical atributes like speed, strength jump height making you very dangerous at the cost of stamina. I have even implemented 6th sense ability that in the newest version will enable to enter slow motion (by triggering the above adrenaline surge) when hostile attack is imminent. When I say imminent I mean it. It gives you only a small window of opportunity to dodge attack. The mod is highly customable and should suit player that play as werewolves/vampires/khajjits and argonians.

But I degress. Recently I have realised that playing as a werewolf could potentially be more fun than I thought. In fact I am in the process of completly changing werewolf gameplay. You will be able to transform at will and stay in the werewolf form indefinatelly. Ofcourse you will be able to shift back at will as well. Naturally I will buff the werewolf form a little bit. I have almost implemented a minion system that will allow you to summon nearby wolves, perhaps also werewolves to your side and issue simple commands like wait, wait there, follow, charge forward. I will try to make it compatible with such fine mods like Frostfall and IMPS complex needs (frost resistance, ability to actually eat while feeding, to be able to sleep everywhere and to be able to drink from water all while in beast form). Now, it will take some time and Im currently going on vacations but I would like to know if you have any additional ideas concerning the mod? Perhaps some new abilities or features or perhaps some changes in the existing mod. Ofcourse I dont promise to implement all of them but know that for example the 6th sense lesser power and the option to track the target via smell originated in this way and significantly enriched my mod with cool and original features. In other words any suggestion will be much appreciated.
