Directional Attack Ecosystem
🕑 Added 2022-04-24 08:41:45 +0000 UTCThis may take a little longer than usual since it's a whole ecosystem of mods for a specific type of combat similar to bannerlord/Mordhau.
So apologies for taking a bit, been busy the past few weeks. My focus was on Wanderer's Heart Ship Movements which is the Latest Ship Mod on Nexus if you didn't know, as well as helping out Duffb with DBC.
A lot of plans still in motion. But one of the things that I really wanted to prioritize was a new type of combat. 10 days ago Mern just released an amazing vid regarding Turning Skyrim Into Elden Ring, but one of the major feedbacks were that most of us in the Skyrim Guild just kept focusing on this type of combat, I took that as a challenge for me since I really wanna learn more and get better with on the technical side of Games development.
So I bring you a whole ecosystem to model the combat system into something much more precise, with the use of Directional attacks, the fewest requirements as much as possible, meaning only Nemesis, DAR and AMR is required. Although it won't cause crashes if not installed I heavily Recommend trying out Ersh's precision mod since that fixes skyrim's hitboxes and makes it more accurate, but it isn't ready right now and does need a lot of fixes so if you're not willing to get some minor bugs, then wait for now. I also recommend a mod to increase attack damage.
Before anything else, the reason why each of these are their own behavior patch and not an all in one is because I designed each to work well even on their own. You can choose to use one feature and ignore the rest, it's your choice. You can mix and match with my other mods too like ABR for third person and Directional attacks for First Person, there is no limitations so it's up to you and also, behavior patches can't just be disabled/enabled in MCM and that's the reason why they are their own patches.
Anyways here's what Each Mod does:
Directional Attack System: available for First and Third Person, with my old Elder scrolls deliverance mod, the transition to each direction was too slow, mouse movement input events are still not possible but for now direction switches instantly, this time you don't need to delay your attacks as well, you can still do them but you can just press the direction + attack button
*There is a free movement option for Third Person Directional Attacks, which is basically non-locked attackmovement if you really want a 1:1 for bannerlord, if you plan to use Third Person Directional Attacks, choose this other the original one. this is what free movement in 3rd person looks like: https://youtu.be/q3XHA03aPu4
Direction Block System: Available in First and third person as well, with Precision almost being fully developed. This enhances the emphasis on attack placement, so everytime you shift direction, your weapon/shield also switches, NPCs are capable of this too. So You're forced to look for openings
Defensive NPCs: This makes your attacks more tight as this makes your npcs constantly block in their default aggressive state, So you'll find yourself having to look for openings constantly rather than just mashing it and hoping your attack landed
Adapted Impactful Blocking and Project Impact( Basically removes IB's 360 Blocking as well as making PI's reactions heavier)
Anyways, sorry again to release these many in one go, I may have to do it again soon as I have learned alot from making this system, I will be using the core principles for creating a for honor type combat in the future as well with directional autoblock + dynamic moveset/stance switch based on direction.
Any project that helps me get better and get me further into games development I will definitely tap on to. anyways this is all for now.
I will definitely improve this constantly like I'm doing with my other projects, but for at least a day or 2 I may take a break, I did all 8 of these only after that vid got released so I did 8 projects in 10 days XD, once I get back I will try to answer all questions and focus on help before I go back into modding or games development THANK YOU EVERYONE! and Happy Modding!
