📋 About This Mod

...as the name suggests

Simple change to feral ghouls. Ghouls now die by headshots only... well, almost. They do take damage to torso and limbs too but only very little. Just enough so you can slow them down a bit. Haven\'t tested with more powerfull weapons yet though, but with 10 mm and Varmint rifle IMO balance feels good. Hit chance on VATS tweaked too so the headshots will have much smaller hit chance. ::edit:: tested now with 12,7 pistol, sniper rifle and marksman rifle with automatic fire. Ghouls withstand quite a lot punishment. They will die eventyally if shot enough to limbs. VATS hit chance to head seemed quite nice too. But I did this with level 45 character with guns skill at 100. Will appreciate if you guys tell how it works for you. Specially with levels between like 5 to 30 or so. I\'ve tested only with level 2 and 45 PC\'s If only I could make them not die when limbs get detached. :D Compatibility and load order: Not sure about other mods, but should be after Realistic Headshots mod\'s in load order as it changes ghouls\' settings too. works nicely with The Walking Dead mod. Load order doesn\'t matter with this one. Comment, critique, suggest, etc... specially throw comment if something doesn\'t work. If you use this on your own mod crediting me is up to you.
