📋 About This Mod

What it (should) do:

  • []Guards don’t instantly appear anymore, unless someone saw the crime nearby.

    []If no one saw it, nothing happens.

    []If someone sees it, guards somehow know — but don’t chase you unless they were close nearby.

    []Fewer guards respond to crimes in general.

    []Horses don't snitch!

Installation:
  • []Drop the file into: Oblivion Remastered\OblivionRemastered\Content\Dev\ObvData\Data Folder

    []add "CrimeTweaks.esp" into the "plugins.txt" file and save.

    []Done

What I actually changed:

  • []iCrimeAlarmRecDistance to 200 (they only react to closely committed crimes)

    []fCrimeAlarmRespMult - lesser reaction to crimes

    []iNumberGuardsCrimeResponse - less guards for crimes

    []fCrimeDispPickpocket - how badly people hate you for pickpocketing (So they shouldnt instantly want to kill you)

    []fCrimeSoundBase - how far alarm calls can be heared

    []Horses Responsibility to 0 (they wont snitch)

    Disclaimer:

    I have no idea what I’m doing. This is my first mod ever, made using an old Oblivion modding

    tutorial and a whole lot of guessing.

    It's experimental!

    Let me know if it breaks something. Or don’t. I probably can't fix it.

    Enjoy, and good luck staying out of jail.
