The Best Realism mod

[chocolambot]

Hi,

 

I love oblivion, but sometimes I get a bit annoyed at how unrealistic the arrow and swordplay is. I enjoy the game for its music and immersion, however RPG elements that get in the way of a head shot being an instant death, kills it a bit for me. Are there any mods/ mod combinations that make arrows and swords kill people properly?

 

Exceptions to this rule should include:

 

- Characters being hit by a sword with armour, should not get killed as fast (but maybe they could recoil).

- Characters with magical spells cast upon them have greater protection (so long as arrows don't get stuck in their heads when they are protected).

- Fisty Cuffs (hand to hand) should still be weak.

- Sheilds and Swords blocking should really be 100% effective (so timing is everything).

 

I would also like a realistic guard system, so guards don't know you have killed/robbed someone unless there are witnesses (who actually can make it to tell them) or you do something bad in front of them.

 

I would prefer a mod that isn't messy, as in, I just want to load the data file and play with the above effects.

 

Any help would be much appreciated, thank you so much!

 

PS: I have Shivering Isles and Nights of the Nine

well, there are many arrow flight mods out there, and there is a mod that blocks 100% with a shield (dont have th elinks)

im sure there is a mod for headshots, but all you're asking sounds way too complicated

300ft crime detection - http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=7319 will take care of the guard problem

or Reneers Guard Overhaul - http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=5977 for a mildly more complex solution.

Duke Patricks - Basic Combat Geometry - http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=18239

Duke Patricks SCA Shield Tricks - http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=18559

will take care of some of the sword / shield play

 

Duke Patricks SCA Combat Archery - http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=17438

or EAGLE EYE REALISTIC ARCHERY MOD Replacement - http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=11415

will make those arrows hit HARD.

 

personally I like these also -

Duke Patricks Near Miss Magic And Arrows Alert The Target - http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=16150

it makes the archery a bit more realistic and risky.

Symphony of Violence - http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=13987 mkes it all sound much more realistic.

 

I don't think you are going to find an all-in-one mod that will fit what you want.

 

- also - I thik all of them except 300ft crime detection & Symphony of Violence require Oblivion Script Extender (OBSE)
