[LE] Need help with simple mod

[ericspace1]

Hey I'm new to modding and I'm wondering how I would go about making a mod that allows me to press a button on my keyboard to toggle on and off an encumbrance effect on my character. And i need it so that the "you are over encumbered" notification doesn't appear when i press the button, but still appears when you are carrying too much. but yeah that's all.

 

If you are wondering why I need to make this mod, it is simply a work around to this extremely annoying issue where your character doesn't have a transition animation when changing direction when walking, but at the same time when you are forced to walk the direction your character walks changes ever so smoothly.

 

I'll post a link to my video, notice the difference between me walking normally, and being forced to walk when I pick up the dragon bones.

my idea is by making this mod i can circumvent using the game's walk button, and have a walk button that uses the encumbrance effect to achieve the smooth directional transitions i'm looking for.

 

I've never made a mod before so I'm at square one, but I'm hoping this mod will be simple enough for me to make it.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

 

Thank you.

My Controller Walk Run Toggle mod pretty much does this by changing the speed multiplier. The script could be adapted to use a regular hot key instead of a controller button if that is necessary. But I never noticed a visual difference in the walking animation between being over encumbered and toggling into walk mode with the default method. Although, when I used keyboard and mouse, I had set the INI to walk by default instead of running. Thus causing me to have to toggle running on when I explicitly wanted to run.

 

At the very least it is a place to start in your search for a solution.

Hey sorry for not getting back to you I've been pretty busy. I found a mod called Scroll Speed that I've been using as a workaround. Thank you for your reply all the same.
