📋 About This Mod
Duke Patricks - Everyone Or Just Vampires Now Bob And Weave OBSE 18 Needed. Rev 1. 5 Patched to be compatible with my upcoming Combat Magic Mod. I am now using the Actor Value CONFUSION as a utility variable that all actors share even the player. This Actor Value (confusion) was never implemented and is not used by the game. But it is available and very useful to me for my mod so I am using it. I know of no other modder that has done this before. So at this time there should be no incompatibilities with other mods. However if any other modder after me starts to implement modification of the actor value Confusion that mod would then be incompatible with my mods. Rev 1. 4 Fixed issue where the player would get up out of sneak if you went into your inventory. Fixed several divide by zero bugs. Rev 1. 3 companion mod fix. ...to be clear the issue was with a vanilla bug using the vanilla command isrunning, and the bug is triggered by companion mods enabling and then disabling the NPC in the same frame. Something the DEV did not except anyone to do. This Rev 1. 3 updated simply will not run the isrunning command unless the NPC is detected moving around using other commands that do not have the bug. NPC will not move in the frame after they have been disabled then enabled, this \"after frame\" is where the trouble occurs even though they are not disabled in that frame. Anyway... We can thank cdCooley for discovering this issue with companion mods. This mod is a merge of my two older mods for NPC and player Bob and Weave dodging. However the player’s Dodging has been revamped to allow a player with high stats and low encumbrance to dodge more like a hero in an action movie. Previously my mod only allowed a few ducks at a time for realism. This mod is still based in realism per my years of medieval combat experience for immersion reasons, but it will also reward players that worked hard to get high stats and are willing to forgo lugging a lot of equipment into battle! At some point I would like to update this mod with new animations to produce a more dramatic attack evasion game mechanic. I am just not at the point to produce such animations yet. MOVIE showing the Bob and Weave in action: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h_M-QH3upEU h_M-QH3upEU ========================================== Overview of the Player Bob and Weave Dodge ========================================== If using a bow or fighting hand to hand you will use a lot less fatigue in the Bob and Weave dodge and will have less of a chance to fall than if you have any other weapon in your hands. If you block with the shield as you are trying to Bob and Weave you use much more fatigue to do the Bob and Weave dodge and have more of a chance to fall. You can Bob and Weave as much as you like as long as you have enough Fatigue! The Bob and Weave costs Fatigue to do however based on your encumbrance. If you use a blade or blunt typ
