Fixing the jump?

[NiteOwl94]

I've noticed there's a hang-up in Fo3 and FoNV where you can't jump when you're running.
Not properly anyways. This has happened on the console version and the PC version.
So I know it's in the game itself and not just laggy controls.
I'm trying to jump from one area to another, and I run and time it just right... but it doesn't respond when I hit the jump key. Instead I plummet to my death. Or at the very least, a pair of broken legs.
There's also areas and ledges you get on, or places you get stuck in, where you can't friggin jump out of to save your life.
I feel like the jump option was always a tacked on afterthought in these games.
However, that's a rant for another time.

Can anyone fix this? Make a mod to work it out?

There are some jump settings, but none that I think would apply to the problem your describing (fJumpHeightMin, fFatigueJumpBase, fFatigueJumpMult, fJumpDoubleMult

fJumpFallTimeMult, fJumpHeightMax). I think (IMHO) that is a problem with the game engine and not something that can be changed with a mod.

theres some jump mods on nexus.

but when you use them theres a weird glitch that happens, its like you land in mid air.

Yes that's what happens when you adjust the fJumpHeightMin, but I don't believe that's what the OP was looking to fix (jumping responsiveness while running).

Yeah you're probably right. It happens in games like Skyrim as well.

Ah well. Didn't hurt to ask.
