A_Ds_Realistic_Weapons

A_D\'s Realistic Weapons ***************************** Following a long break from DA and a request from \'Devlog\' I am currently working on v2. 0 which will include changes to all(core) weapons, armour/clothing and shields. If you\'ve got any suggestions/requests now is the time to make yourself heard. Keep an eye out for a beta release after some initial testing. ************************* Credit and thanx go to; Dennis lee for his work on \'Bow Modifier Changes\' - http://www.dragonagenexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=328 - which gave me the inspiration to make this mod and Ossir, for directing me towards Dennis\'s work, and his input regarding the crossbow changes. http://www.dragonagenexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=1560 ------------ Description ------------ In an atempt to make some aspects of the game more realistic i have made the following changes to the basic weapon types. - Daggers NO Minimum Requirement to use - Cus even a small child can carry/use a dagger, unlike a sword Increased Critical Chance - as a dagger allows for more accurate attacks - Staff Is now a Melee Weapon - This also affects enemy spellcasters and may make them less of a challenge NO Minimum Requirement to use - Its not like staffs are very heavy Decreased Penetration - compared to the ranged projectile version - Shortbows 10 Strength Minimum Requirement to use - This represents the requirements to draw a shortbow Increased Range to be more realistic - Not as long as Long Bow - Longbows 14 Strength Minimum Requirement to use - This represents the requirements to draw a longbow Increased Range to be more realistic - Crossbows 10 Strength and 10 Dexterity Minimum Requirements to use - This represents the requirements to load a crossbow Increased Penetration and damage Much slower rate of fire - Reflects the loading time (am trying to slow down the animation if you can help) Increased Range to be more realistic - Not as long as Short/Long Bow For an alternative version of the crossbow changes, check out Ossir\'s Crossbow tweak (http://www.dragonagenexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=1560)*** Note: These numbers are for 1st tier items and will increase according to tier. ------------- Installation ------------- To manually install A_D\'s Realistic Weapons: Download \'ADRWzip\', Unzip and move \"\\A_D\'s Realistic Weapons\" to your override folder(Documents\\BioWare\\Dragon Age\\packages\\core\\override) If you use Altorian\'s \'DAO-Modmanager\' (http://www.dragonagenexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=277): Download \'ADRWoveride\', unzip and drag to modmanagers file window, then right click the file and select install. *** If you dont like any of the changes listed above simply delete that Weapons Folder. ---------- Uninstall ---------- Remove \"A-D\'s Realistic Weapons\" from your override folder -------------- Com
