✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 407 endorsements and 14,815 downloads
- Fixes a common exploit that lets players and NPCs kite enemies while shooting
- Simple, focused gameplay tweak that doesn't overhaul the whole movement system
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2019 — may not be compatible with the latest Morrowind patches or MWSE versions
- Requires MWSE Lua, so it won't work without that dependency installed
- Only affects strafing and backpedaling, not other movement aspects like sprinting or jumping
For Morrowind players who want more realistic combat movement and to remove the cheese of kiting while shooting. Also for modders who appreciate clean, single-purpose gameplay tweaks. Skip if you prefer arcade-style movement or don't want to bother with MWSE dependencies.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have MWSE (Morrowind Script Extender) installed and updated, as this mod relies on its Lua scripting.
- If you're using a mod manager like Mod Organizer 2, install this mod through it to keep your load order clean.
- Test the mod in a new save or after backing up your current save, as movement changes can affect combat balance.
