📋 About This Mod

The problem:

If vanilla V. A. T. S is turned into bullet time using the common methods; many effects, perks, hit-events, and all the good stuff will not work.

As a result some perks are wonky, Awareness doesn't work, Gun-Fu cant trigger, Concentrated Fire is pointless.

We can't do limb damage, critting requires workarounds, and any effect that needs to know what body part it hit simply fails.

This mod attempts to solve that.

Your controllers VATS button will from now on start Bullet Time V. A. T. S.

Bullet Time V. A. T. S mostly works like vanilla VATS. You can use all the "when in VATS" perks, effects will fire, you do limb damage, there is damage reduction (configurable), slow-time (configurable), and if you have awareness you can identify a target's hp and resistances.

Different from vanilla VATS is that you can move around, take scoped shots, equip and use items, and throw grenades.

Melee users can damage limbs in Bullet Time V. A. T. S, something that is not possible even in unmodded vanilla VATS.

Overview

Possible actions:

  • []Move

    []Jump

    []Use Scope

    []Equip

    []Eat, Drink, Chems

    []Throw

    []Use PipBoy

    []Use Favorites

    []Limb Damage for Melee users

    []Most vanilla VATS actions

AP Consumption:

Most actions you can take in Bullet Time V. A. T. S will cost Action Points.

The cost can be partially configured in the holotape.

  • []Scoped shot.

    Take advantage of slow time and land a sniper shot on a moving target.

    It will cost ALL off your AP and kick you out of VATS.  The Sniper 3 perk halves the AP cost, allowing 2 shots.

  • []Moving and jumping.

    Moving is expensive, so is jumping. But it's cool to go Max Payne on those raiders.

    The Blitz perks will massively reduce movement costs.

  • []Equipping items.

    You can equip a weapon for 1/3 of your max AP.

    Equipping armor is free. If you can be the Silver Shroud you should be able to change costumes as fast as superheroes do.

    Equipping legendary armor that has an effect on AP will cost half of your max AP.

  • []Eating, drinking, and using Chems.

    Will cost you a third of your max AP.

  • []Using throwables. (grenades, mines, etc)

    Using slow time to create a hails of grenades is very overpowered, therefore a throw will cost 1/3 of your AP.

Settings Holotape:

[]Time Dilation.

Choose from  several options in a range from the vanilla 0. 04 to 0. 75[]Image Space Modifier.

Select from 3 Image Space Effects, or disable them.[]Set AP consumption rate.
