Better Decaps and Nonfatal Dismemberments (BaS 1.0)
⬇ Download on Nexus ModsPreview

About This Mod
No more head popping decapitations! Optional nonfatal dismemberments.
Update: Confirmed working for 1. 0!
Ever get bothered by the cartoony-looking head "pop" that happens when you decapitate someone? Well, look no further! This mod reduces the amount of force that a head is "ejected" with when separated from the body.
This modifies player ragdoll data in the creature data for human males and females. It only affects the head, as the limbs seem fine to me.
It does NOT make dismemberment any easier than normal! You can use another mod like https://www.nexusmods.com/bladeandsorcery/mods/1289" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Simple Dismemberment along with this mod.
This includes https://www.nexusmods.com/bladeandsorcery/mods/4830?tab=f... rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Nonfatal Dismemberments, which can be toggled on or off. This means that NPCs can survive a hand, arm, or foot dismemberment. Decapitation (head) and full leg dismemberment will still always kill. It looks a bit weird if they're missing a leg and still walking around upright.
Configuration
You can enable or disable Better Decaps separately from Nonfatal Dismemberments. To do this, follow these steps:
- []In the game, open the config book. []Click "Mods" on the left side. []Select the "Better Decaps" mod. []To enable reduced head pop, set "Better Decaps" to Enabled. To use the vanilla setting, set it to Disabled. []To enable nonfatal dismemberments for hands, arms and feet, set "Nonfatal Dismemberments" to Enabled. To make them fatal, set it to Disabled.

Compatibility (1. 0)
- []Compatible with anything that doesn't modify Creature_HumanMale.json or Creature_HumanFemale.json. Mods that do affect these files may still be compatible, depending on what values were touched. []Better Decaps is compatible with https://www.nexusmods.com/bladeandsorcery/mods/6075" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Sliceable Torso . []Nonfatal Dismemberments is partially compatible with https://www.nexusmods.com/bladeandsorcery/mods/6075" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Sliceable Torso . Edit configuration.json for Sliceable Torso with a text editor and set killOnTorsoDecap to false. However, this option will cause NPCs to sometimes survive a torso dismemberment. I can't fix it on my end. []Not compatible with https://www.nexusmods.com/bladeandsorcery/mods/10260" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Survivable Dismemberment 1. 0 . Use the Nonfatal Dismemberment option instead.
