thaiboiz Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 Is there a mod where when you're lockpicking/reading events happen around you, like when you're talking to someone? I know there's a mod name with Real Time Reading but it's kind of funky and doesn't really do what I described. Even though it seems kind of small it would make lockpicking a lot more engaging since you'd be pressed for time if your in an area with guards patrolling and whatnot.

l337ar15 Posted October 7, 2012 Share Posted October 7, 2012 This is a GREAT idea! Real time lockpicking would really enhance thievery. Trying to sneak into a building before that guard patrol comes up the road? Attempting to steal that high level enemies loot before he comes into the room? Time to put lock picking to the test! Would be a really great mod to see implemented. Having a pause menu kind of defeats the purpose. It is like playing combat as turn based instead of real time. Why is lock picking treated any differently? Book reading real time would also add more immersion to the game as well. Personally I would like to see the entire menu treated this way as well. Want to drink a potion? Open the menu real time or have it hotkeyed. Want to switch out weapons or armor? No more pause menu to do it, all real time. Would be awesome IMO.

AnkhAscendant Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 I want this very much. Being able to pause combat to pick a lock is amusing at first, but not so great for immersion. It would really add something to raiding Giant camps if you had to pick the lock before they got to you instead of just having to get there and then run away :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kymmenen Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 I add my humble vote to this. Real-time lockpicking would make the current boring skill (and perk tree, because, seriously, who have ever put perk points in there?) much more interesting. Perhaps someone familiar with how the system works could shed some light on this and explain what the current situation is, if it'd be possible to implement at all, and why hasn't been done already. Please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deleted1308005User Posted December 8, 2012 Share Posted December 8, 2012 I throw my voice on this request as well. And my voice has power! :hurr: I agree with the above post, It'd make lockpicking actually usable perk tree, now it's just useless.Think about it, picking master lock would actually be hard, especially if there's guards around, by picking certain perks it'd be easier, but still pretty much impossible for anyone without the perk. (or gear) I love it, and I hope someone is able to do this! It certainly sounds like small tweak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
senterpat Posted December 9, 2012 Share Posted December 9, 2012 Well there's the real time reading mod- RTR. I don't know how this could be done, but I think itd be more that just a small tweak, would require a script that forced the player to exit the lockpicking screen, and be accosted by a guard. That's only if you could get the pause to stop at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalec84 Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 I was going to open a new topic about it, than i saw this one...I've tried -RTR- but it is simply a reading animation of your character... Is there no chance to have "real" -real time lockpic and reading- in this game? It will be VERY awesome... or at the least can someone explain what a mod like this will need to be done?
