Xythan Posted October 13, 2007 Share Posted October 13, 2007 Hi. I'm new to Oblivion and the forum, so if this has been asked before I'm sorry. I really have spent hours trying to find a mod like what I'm about to ask with no luck so maybe someone here can help. I'm looking for a mod that does an instant kill or at least a near fatal strike with a headshot from any arrow as long as it hits a part of the face that isn't covered by the helmet, as this would add, in my opinion, a much more realistic element to the game. Thanks for your help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoginToDownload Posted October 13, 2007 Share Posted October 13, 2007 There is an existing mod called Locational Damage. It only adds 50% to arrow headshots, but then, it doesn't really make sense that people can survive so many shots to the heart either. It also adds various attribute/skill damages when having certain limbs hacked at, so you're going to end up taking quite a few more trips to the temple. Is that acceptible?

Xythan Posted October 13, 2007 Author Share Posted October 13, 2007 Its better than anything I've seen so far. Thanks for the suggestion! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sypron Posted October 13, 2007 Share Posted October 13, 2007 Hold up there. I tried using that and it ruined my save. I'm not saying that will happen to you, but make a backup before you install it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xythan Posted October 16, 2007 Author Share Posted October 16, 2007 Thanks for the warning. I downloaded the mod but haven't been able to try it out yet. Honestly though, the more I think about it the more I really just want a mod that does a one hit kill with a headshot taking armor and stuff into consideration. I have seen many other people with this same desire on other sites too. Is this just to hard of a mod to make? I honestly don't know the time and effort that goes into a mod, so that is a genuine question for me. If there's anyone out there who'd like to try I know you'd have the endless gratitude of many, many people. Haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sypron Posted October 16, 2007 Share Posted October 16, 2007 Yeah, it is somthing hard to make. Its because oblivion doesn't register where an arrow hits, it just checks if it hit or not. Also, checking to see if it hits the head in particular is hard, becuase oblivion also doesn't know what constitues as "a head". Location damage kinda worked for me, but as well as making NPC's head a more damaging target, it made every creature in the game near invincible. And when I turned it off I still had problems, enemies would fly about 5 meters away whenever I hit them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xythan Posted October 16, 2007 Author Share Posted October 16, 2007 Interesting concept. I will try to get in touch with Scruggs. Thanks for the advice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GenghisKhanIT Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 Also, try taking a look at Deadly Reflex , it does something similar to what you're asking, giving also the chance, during the fight, to cut-off your opponent's head ! If I well remember, it also adds mounted combat, casting and trampling, the possibility to split your whole opponent in two, or cursh his head, in a similar fashion to decapitation. I downloaded it, but not yet tried. Requires OBSE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
