I was looking for a mod to up the arena betting amounts but I couldn't find one so I made my own. This adds NEW betting options to Hundolin.
You can now bet the following amounts
The spoken dialogue saying how much you bet doesn't change but the subtitles do. There is no way to fix this without rerecording the dialogue. Currently all except a few of the new bet amounts do not play the original audio, I intended it to play the original audio except of course the amount said would be incorrect. I can't see any way to set it to use the original audio if anyone knows how let me know and I will fix this as best as possible.

The money bet plus 33% is added to Hundolin so you can pickpocket it off him before a match or after if you loose. If you win and pickpocketed him you still get your full amount of winnings. If you win a match 33% of the money you bet will stay on Hundolin but the amount you bet will be removed, you will however still get your full amount if you won.
If you loose a match all the money plus the 33% of your bet will remain on Hundolin. By giving him 33% of your bet it gives the illusion of others betting. This 33% added caps at 16500 so you can't get insane amounts of money along with your own back. Money is not removed on each new betting so Hundolin will accumulate wealth over a period of time.
An OPTIONAL modified gamblers balcony has been added. Putting this in your game removes the collision on the front allowing you to attack the combatants with your skills.
Your chance to be seen attacking the combatants is based on your sneak skill. However you do not need to be sneaking for it to work. A higher sneak skill gives you a much lower chance to be noticed on each attack. The lowest chance you can possibly get to be noti
