Enhanced Quen Redux (Classic and Next Gen)

Description

This is a rework of the excellent mod originally created by  Zhior.  Reworked to make it much more user friendly, and to bring it to Next Gen. Enhanced Quen overhauls the Quen sign to make it far more versatile and useful, while giving you full control over every behavior through a clean in-game menu. Changes in the menu take effect immediately in the game.  No more hand-editing script files.

Key Features

Quen Blocks Falls — Quen will absorb fall damage instead of letting gravity flatten you. You control exactly how forgiving this is:  An excellent, and immersive alternative to mods that remove fall damage completely.

• []Set the fall height that breaks Quen when you don't roll (default 7. 0) and when you do roll (default 9. 0).[/]

  []Set the lethal fall distance — the minimum height that kills you even with Quen up (default 15. 0).[/]

  []Toggle Quen Never Breaks so falls never shatter your shield (though you'll still die past the lethal threshold).[/]

  []Or disable the falls feature entirely to restore vanilla fall behavior.[/]

Longer Quen Duration — Extend how long your shield lasts with a slider running from 0 up to +600 seconds on top of the vanilla 30-second base (set to 0 for pure vanilla timing). Optionally let Sign Intensity multiply the duration, so investing in Quen Intensity rewards you with an even longer-lasting shield.  This is an excellent feature for those that use other mods that add a light effect to quen.  This essentially allows you to use quen as a light source when in dark caves, or dark underwater environments.

Quality-of-Life Utilities

• []Show Quen as a buff — displays your remaining Quen time as a HUD buff icon so you always know how long your shield has left.[/]

  []Quen persists in cutscenes — keeps your shield active through dialogues and cutscenes instead of dropping it the moment a conversation starts.  Another nice option for those that use lighting mods that make it almost impossible to see the characters in dialogue scenes at night or in other dark areas such as caves. [/]

Fully Configurable In-Game

Everything above is split across three menu pages — Falls, Duration, and Uti
