Decoupling Look and Movement Direction?

[ukkic]

I'll preface this by saying I'm pretty sure that the answer to this will be "it's not possible."

 

Does anyone know whether or not it would theoretically be possible for a mod to decouple look an walk direction in Skyrim? I.E. you can walk forward but look to your left, etc.

 

I want to play Skyrim using Oculus Rift/Virtuix Omni, and this would make it a much better experience.

Being one of the most moddable games out there, I'm sure a skilled modder can do it. The modder should be in contact with the folks that modded Half Life 2 for decoupled movement, or any other VR shooter developer out there that is including decoupled interaction in their game.

Open configuration file in Data/SKSE/Plugins/FirstPersonPlugin.txt

 

On line 15 there are these two:

;!bindkey2 0x66 0 "TurnFreeLookOn"
;!bindkey2 -0x66 0 "TurnFreeLookOff"

Remove the ; symbol in front so it becomes:

!bindkey2 0x66 0 "TurnFreeLookOn"
!bindkey2 -0x66 0 "TurnFreeLookOff"

Now when you hold numpad 6 you can look around without character turning there.
