📋 About This Mod
Adds scripted knockdown effects to applicable vanilla weapons for more intense combat!
Description: While playing FO3, I found combat to be rather bland and extremely un-tactical. Part of my solution to this was to create for myself a mod that made weapons (melee, guns, and explosives) knock down both you and your enemies. Bigger enemies are harder to knock down, and the more armored you are, the less chance there is you will be knocked down. What It Does: This removes critical from all guns and replaces them with a knockdown effect on enemies they hit, each weapon\'s script is unique based on its ammo type. This mod modifies ALL vanilla weapons and does not require any DLC or other mods to work. LITE Version: As a separate download, a LITE edition is also available, with lowered knockdown chances (30-60% less chance). Please Note: Do not upload this anywhere else without giving me credit as the original author. Feel free to change it as you see fit. I would immensely appreciate any feedback that people has as to how they feel this affects their game\'s fun and realism, and so that I can fix any bugs that might remain after my basic testing. Thanks!
