Midwinter1888 Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 (edited) Hi, The one thing that strikes me as deeply unrealistic in Skyrim is the fact that the player can swim about in mountain streams, freezing rivers and the ice-bound sea without a care in the world. Maybe Nords should be able to do this (they seem to like the cold) but any other race should suffer for such idiotic behavior. Anyone who has seen the last scenes of the movie Titanic will understand that cold water is fatal to mammals over extended periods of time. What I want to make - or see someone else create - is a mod that makes swimming in Skyrim waters first steadily reduce your stamina, them reduce your health to the point of death. The water in Fallout 3 had a similar effect, except with radiation poisoning, so I know that it's theoretically possible. There were also FO3 mods that changed the lethality of the water radiation, so I know the effect wasn't hardcoded into the game. Unfortunately, I don't know which bit of the creation kit deals with water, so I don't know where to start. Can anyone offer any advice?Bumping is not allowed.Your 'bump' post has been deleted from the topic. --LM Edited February 20, 2012 by LadyMilla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macdaddy123 Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 I second this idea! Somebody needs to make this, also some kind of negative effect when you spend too much time in any extremely cold place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midwinter1888 Posted February 20, 2012 Author Share Posted February 20, 2012 (edited) I hadn't really thought about makingthe air damaging but, of course, that makes good sense. The method would be much the same as the radiation areas in Fallout 3 (near toxic waste barrels, for example). How to make the entire northern part of the map dangerously cold? Any ideas?

Midwinter1888 Posted February 21, 2012 Author Share Posted February 21, 2012 there are a couple of hypothermia mods search and try them out Ah ha! Yes, you were right. I found an excellent cold mod - called Hypothermia - by Nitor. Find it here if you're interested: http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=6745&navtag=file/images.php?id=6745&tab=3 Thanks for the advice.
