Roleplay & Realism mod pack

, by Hazelnut

Description

This mod pack contains optional modules to enhance roleplay and realism for Daggerfall Unity gameplay. Enable / disable the modules in the mod settings. The intention is to add small mini-mod modules to this over time that support roleplay and realism to enhance immersion for those that desire it. There's a companion mod pack called Roleplay & Realism: Items specifically focussing on items and loot. It's in a different mod because the base item refinements cannot be disabled from settings so instead you can choose to install that mod pack or not.

Current modules:

  • []Clickable beds

    []Advanced Archery

    []Enhanced Riding

    []Encumbrance Effects

    []Usable Bandages

    []Ship Port Boarding

    []Underworld Expulsion

    []Mountain Rumors (FG Master quest)

    []Climbing Restriction

    []Weapon Speed Limits

    []Armor Damage

    []Enemy Appearance Remix

    []Auto-extinguish Player Light

    []Weapon Material To-hit Moderation

    []Classic Strength Damage Bonus

    []Variant Shop & Tavern Keepers (may want to turn this off if using Dream)

    []Replace random house flats with Townsfolk

    []Bank Loan Max Amount Per Level

    []Refined Guild Training Service

    Clickable Beds

    Simple module that enables bed models to be activated. When activated, it pops up the sleep menu and disables the auto-teleport to a bedroom in taverns. Now works on dungeon beds!

    Advanced archery

    Adjusts damage and hit chance depending on length of bow draw. Obviously only works with the bow draw option enabled in main DFU settings. If you release an arrow too soon, damage and hit chances are reduced. Same if you hold the bow drawn too long. Releasing at the right point will give a slight increase to hit chance.

    The tables below shows the current implementation of adjustments:

    Draw time effect on damage:

    0s - . 8s = damage is scaled linearly up to default damage

    . 8s - 5s = normal default damage

    5s - 6s   = 85% damage

    6s - 8s   = 75% damage

    8s - 9s   = 50% damage

    9s - = 25% damage

    Draw time effect on hit chance:

    0s - . 2s = -40 to hit

    . 2s - . 5s    = -10 to hit

    . 5s - 1s = normal to hit

    1s - 2s   = +10 to hit

    2s - 5s   = normal to hit

    5s - 8s   = -10 to hit

    8s - = -20 to hit

    Enhanced Horseriding

    Enhances horse riding, making it more realistic looking and providing new abilities.
