-------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------
When the player hits an actor or an object, a “hit-stop” (a tiny pause) is added along with camera shake and blur effects. This makes weapon strikes feel more solid and heightens the sense that a hit has actually been made.
You can customize settings in MCM.
You can customize each value, of “actor” or “object” independently (read below).
TK HitStop applies the following effects when attacking:
Hit Stop : Simulates a pause in the movement of the player and the enemy. Default: 0. 08 seconds.
PowerAttack Time : Adds additional time to the hit stop, camera shake, and controller vibration when hit by a power attack. Default: 0. 08 seconds.
Blur Effect : Applies radial blur to the player’s camera. Default: 1. 0.
Shake Camera : Shakes the player’s camera. Default: 1. 0.
Shake Controller : Vibrates the controller. Default: Off.
HitBlocked : Toggle this option to apply effect when player attack is blocked. Default:On
