gGG - guillerku's Good GMSTs

Numerical changes to Morrowind's core values that affect its gameplay without touching the world. These are the specific GMSTs I play with to amplify the experience of TESIII, with a focus on immersion, balance, pacing, and re-invigorating content that poor implementation of mechanics left in the dust.

WHAT I MEAN is that several gameplay features of Morrowind sound good on paper but a rushed development caused them to be superseeded by other mechanics, either because exploits left them obsolete (economy) or because they worked so badly that there was no use in interacting with them (pickpocketing).

This is achieved through the following 42 changes to the GaMe SeTtings, compatible with any content mod.

• []PLAYER MOVEMENT and FATIGUE

fAthleticRunBonus           0. 81 from 1

fBaseRunMultiplier        1. 94 from 1. 75

fMinWalkSpeed       125 from 100

fSwimRunBase  0. 8 from 0. 5

fEncumberanceStrMult  7. 5 from 5

fFatigueAttackBase   3 from 2

fFatigueBlockBase    6 from 4

fFatigueJumpBase   6 from 4

fFatigueRunBase     4 from 5

fFatigueRunMult  1. 5 from 2 These values are the result of mixing several (forgotten, sorry) mods with a similar objective of taking the un-fun elements out of movement while keeping the challenge, character differences, and improvement. In short, early game speed is faster while late game is unchanged; you get a bit more inventory per strength point; and fatigue costs are reduced for moving but increased for actions (fighting, jumping). The result is easier fatigue management when moving so that you don't always need to rest before everything, but harsher costs once you begin doing actual exhausting things. With high endurance and low encumberance you are now able to run without losing fatigue, making build choices more impactful (jumping everywhere is discouraged now though unless you are a lighweight acrobat).

• []PLAYER SNEAK and CRIME

fSneakSpeedMultiplier      0. 81 from 0. 75

Pickpocketing was broken in vanilla, with these changes you can play and have actual fun as a thief (formulas where reverse engineered and extensive t
