Toggle Slow Motion

Introduction

Do you find yourself struggling in combat situations because you can't find the right key in time? I was constantly having to glance down at the keyboard, rather than watch the battle, because I couldn't find the right keys. That wouldn't happen in real life, and it meant that I was losing battles I would otherwise have won. This mod solves that by allowing you to toggle slow motion on & off whenever you like. For example, you can toggle it on when the battle starts and toggle it off when the battle ends. No more struggling to find the right keys!

The Dedicated key to trigger slow motion mod already does this of course, but it suffers from two critical weaknesses: 1) whenever the player uses Protego or Ancient Magic Throw the slow-mo ends, and 2) when that happens you can't toggle slow-mo back on again. This is a long-standing bug, but it doesn't look like it will ever be fixed. That mod is also written in LUA, which is hooked into the game using UE4SS. That can work well for some users, but for others causes stability issues.

I have therefore created this new mod, which uses blueprint logic. (That's what the game is written in, so it tends to be very stable.)

Installation

You should be able to install the mod automatically using Vortex (then skip to step 4 below), but Vortex can be a bit unreliable with Hogwarts Legacy mods (it doesn't always delete mods properly) so I would recommend installing it manually as follows:

• []Download the mod.

  []Unzip the contents.

  []Move zMySlowMo-103_P.utoc, zMySlowMo-103_P.ucas, and zMySlowMo-103_P.pak to the Steam\steamapps\common\Hogwarts Legacy\Phoenix\Content\Paks\~mods\ folder.

  []Install Blueprint Apparate Modloader if you haven't already.

  []Start Hogwarts Legacy

  []Load your most recent save-file.

  []Press the F8 key to activate Blueprint Apparate Modloader.

  []Type MySlowMo in the little window and hit the Enter key on your keyboard.

  []The word MySlowMo should disappear and reappear lower down in that window with an X next to it. If it doesn't - if it stays on the top line - then either a) you put the .utoc, .ucas and .pak files in the wrong folder, or b) one of your existing mods is already using pakchunk 103. Use my PakChunk Checker to check that. If you have a pakchunk conflict see the Conflicts section below.

  []Press F8 again to get rid of the modloader window.
