///// UPDATE 1. 6 /////
GRENADE updates:
- Grenades added to the Grenade-O-Matic cycle/throw system will now persist across saves, even upon exiting your game and restarting.
- You now can remove grenades that you don't want to use via the Grenade-O-Matic; same process as adding them, whilst in inventory and grenade selected, hold the G key and a message will appear.
- NEW: smaller (DarnUI) set icons for HUD -- actually, they're around 3 years old for me ;).
- NEW: added a check for the EVE "Shredder grenade" so that it should display a unique icon and label for these via the HUD now.
SPRINT updates:
- NEW: can now set sprint speed multiplier rate via Sprint-O-Matic menu -- cycles through 0. 75, 1 (default), 1. 25, 1. 5, 1. 75 and 2. 0
- NEW: can now set AP usage on/off via Sprint-O-Matic menu
- NEW: now uses a new sprint formula, should be slightly to moderately higher depending upon your stats: Agility, Endurance and carry weight.
- NEW: can now set it to use the OLD sprint formula via Sprint-O-Matic menu
- NEW: now uses a new AP drain formula based upon your Agility, Endurance, Strength and carry weight. The last one is a big one, in that the less you carry, the longer you can sprint for ;).
- NEW: can now set it to use the OLD AP drain rate formula via Sprint-O-Matic menu
- NEW: can now toggle Power Armor sprinting on/off via Sprint-O-Matic menu -- default is OFF.
- FIXED: when switching to 3rd person view, camera is now at the correct distance from player avatar -- this inherited feature from the original sprint mod has really bugged me for ages.
Update INSTALL notes:
If you are installing this over the top of a previous version, do reinstall all files inclusive of textures and the HUD xml files -- making sure to follow the install instructions below if you are using something like DarnUI.
