Who wants to help test the climbing mod? - edition
I've fixed all the bugs I could find and played with it for awhile but there's still probably some stuff I missed, who wants to help test a mod that adds climbing (and some other stuff)?
Here's the changes:
Stamina:
>Stamina (fatigue) is consumed much more quickly, but it also regenerates much faster (1x endurance per second)
>If you run out of stamina you fall down
Running:
>Tap the walk key while running to sprint
>Run speed is the speed at which you neither gain nor lose stamina, sprint speed is your maximum speed, and you regenerate stamina while walking
>If you wade through water your speed is reduced
>Attacking will momentarily reduce your speed
Jumping:
>There are two ways to jump, your default jump's height does not scale with acrobatics, but if you jump right after uncrouching you will jump much higher (this also scales with strength).
>Horizontal speed for both jumps scales with acrobatics. The short one is meant to be used as a dodge, the high one is for jumping.
>If your horizontal velocity is high enough you can skip on water by jumping right as you land.
Climbing:
>Move towards a wall with your weapon/spell readied and put it away to start climbing
>You don't regenerate stamina while climbing (or in the air) so the distance you can go is based on how much stamina you have.
>Stamina cost of climbing and sprinting is based on athletics (which no longer affects speed)
>Your speed while climbing is affected by acrobatics and agility.
And here's a link:

(if you come into this thread to test, ctrl-f "link" and get the most recent version in case I post an updated one below)
Also, I was thinking about adding the player's acrobatics skill to their defense bonus while jumping. In the combat mod (which can't be released due to an OpenMW bug) your acrobatics is a factor in whether you dodge while jumping in my own hit equation, but I could put that in this one instead so it would be a factor in the vanilla combat equation too, thoughts? Note that the combat mod would require this one anyways.

Coincidentally, I was just about to start another game of Morrowind. Since Nexusmods is shitting itself and I can't seem to browse new mods for 10 minutes without the site going down I'll check your mod out on a fresh new game.

Climbing is neat, but it sounds like this breaks the existing speed/jump spells. Things like boots of blinding speed and scroll of icarian flight, as well as custom spells designed for the same effect, probably won't work like they should, based on what you described.
How does the system interact with stamina regen, especially constant effect stamina regen? Is it disabled completely while climbing or does CE stamina allow you to climb infinitely?

The detection of whether you stay on or not is based on whether you are colliding with an object as you move, so if you move along the wall instead of towards it you will fall off. There is no way around this outside of dehardcoding openmw (or editing the source). The stamina drain is based on your speed while climbing, this ensures that you aren't penalized for moving slowly by looking closer to the wall when moving. If you suddenly move very quickly, usually as you stop climbing and are moving away from the wall, you will lose stamina faster.
There is a small window where you can move freely without touching the wall, this is to ensure that small gaps or moving around ledges is possible.
>>14839511
Jump and speed spells work fine, fortify acrobatics won't do much unless you crouch jump but I changed the scroll of icarian flight in another mod to fortify jump instead of acrobatics.
Manually restoring fatigue over time WILL break it however but the exact same effect is achieved by fortifying endurance (another mod makes fatigue based on willpower alone, and health based on luck/strength instead of endurance/level). So yes, CE restore fatigue lets you climb infinitely if you're patient or the effect is very strong. There is no way around this until dehardcoding as there is no way to tell the magnitude of the restore fatigue effect on the player.

Do you make this with scripts or did you modify the engine to achieve this? If you made this with scrips why does it need OpenMW, I thought scripting functionality in that was behind Vanilla?
The way you are handling jumping is a massive improvement, it's fun to be able to play like a human flea but it sucks ass when you need to make a small jump and the only option is to remove your enchanted gear. Will there be a way to make continuously long jumping a smooth motion? will you add in the ability to sprint into an attack or is combat not a goal of your work?
I probably won't try this out yet, I'm a bit busy.

I'm genuinely more curious about what kind of direction they will give to Starfield. Will it really be procedurally generated? Will it have more RPG elements than Skyrim? It will give us cues about what TES VI will be like. Fallout 4 actually had more RPG mechanics than Oblivion and Skyrim in regards of weapon modification, so I'm still cautiously optimistic.

It is done exclusively through the scripting system, but OpenMW's is a little different in a couple important ways here. Scripts are interpreted and the compiled bytecode is ignored, so if you want to run it in vanilla you'd need to load the scripts into the CS and compile them. There are also many uses of functions with variable arguments and lines with many functions on them which can be a problem with the vanilla compiler. Lastly, and most significantly, Player->GetAngle X in OpenMW gives the vertical angle of the camera whereas in vanilla it gives the vertical angle of the player model, which is always 0. The trig functions I made for the climbing will not work at all without this so you'd need to use MWSE and switch to something like xGetCameraVector.
I don't even have Windows installed, let alone the vanilla engine, so I wouldn't consider making a vanilla version myself but if anyone wants to then go ahead, you can consider anything I make CC-BY-SA.

I have a thief character who uses low magnitude levitation spells to reach treasure and get to balconies where guards won't see me picking locks.

You can also make use of blind, since even non-magical characters can throw pocket-sand. Detect animal can be an experienced ashlander's tracking skills. I think even the dumbest barbarian can make healing and cure potions, since he must have some knowledge of folk remedies to live off the land.

One thing I want to clarify to really send this concept home: while it is true that it was actually Morrowind that released the same year are The Two Towers and hence in the middle of LotR hype, you must keep in mind that Morrowind was in development long before the movies had come out, it was Oblivion that was being developed and more importantly planned out during the height of LotR's mainstream popularity. TES was always weird fantasy with bits close to Conan in parts before Todd went to see Return of the King and decided he wanted Cyrodill to look like middle-earth and that Oblivion should look like a carbon copy of Mordor.
Bravo Todd.

You can start your crouch in midair so it's not too difficult. If the game was dehardcoded I would just make it so you charge your jumps by holding spacebar (like in Saints Row 4), but that is not presently an option.
>sprint attacks
Not explicitly, but I've got something even better. In the combat mod your velocity (and the enemy's) is a factor in damage so both jump attacks and sprint attacks are encouraged. In fact I think the two most effective ways to do damage are to time your attack with either the launch or the fall of a scroll of Icarian flight, hopefully someone goes full RULES OF NATURE with that and records it (I've only successfully done it with smaller magnitude jump spells).
4bfcaf No.14843663

Except it is. OpenMW is purely an engine. Its purpose is to provide a free, open-source engine that plays vanilla Morrowind, while taking advantage of modern hardware and adding optional engine enhancements, like shader support. It doesn't supply any other files necessary to play Morrowind, like the assets, and requires players to attain them from, "officially", a legitimately purchased copy, though pirated copies work the same. It literally cannot fix game assets, because it doesn't provide any of them.

you can argue it but you would be wrong. vp8 is terrible and was immediately abandoned by google themselves in favor of vp9.
it's like comparing h264 vs h265. h265 is better in every way, except for the kikery involved and lack of player support due to said kikery.
encoding speed will improve in time, all new intel processors have hardware vp9 encoding (and vp8, and h264/h265 and mpeg2). though with hardware encoders the quality and filesize are usually worse than software.

The only time I've ever played Morrowind was when I got drunk with a friend and watched him play it, then I took control when he kept dying too much. That was a few years ago and I'd like to give it a real try. What's the definitive version to download? The original, GOTY, or some other one? I doubt I'll use mods now since I like doing a vanilla run for the first time, but what are some you're all interested in?
Even though the story, world, and gameplay seem fun and interesting, the main reason I want to play is for the spears. I fucking love polearms.

GOTY doesn't really make any difference to the vanilla experience, since the two expansions are pretty well self-contained. Besides, it would be pretty hard to actually find a downloadable version of extremely vanilla Morrowind since it would be pointless.

it's a coding bug where it places your character a bit forward and up after ingesting a stun potion. Get your INT as high as you can, use alchemy to brew stun potions and then drink as many as you can at once. More potions, higher velocity.

But now i have problems with Ordinators. Its either i have shiny Ordinator, or have to use shitty better armor ordinators to hide it. Another problem with OpenMW shit. Same problem with steel armor and some other armors with shininess on them.

Yes. The crew making Skywind are way over-ambitious, and they're only doing it for the modding-cred, too. Skyrim's version of gamebryo really cannot support some of the things Morrowind has, without massive performance issues, like completely open cities. All those pretty trailers, the team has released, are bullshots, something that some members even tried encouraging the OpenMW team to do.

Well, as I said, open cities, for one. Also, no custom animations, without replacing existing ones or using FNIS, which is very limited in what it can do. This means no new weapon types, that aren't just reskins of existing weapons, and no creatures with completely new animation skeletons. If you look at their cliffracer model, you'll notice it has legs, which is something Morrowind's cliff racers didn't have. This is because they have to use the dragon's skeleton, as it's the only "bird-like" creature in the game. Custom spells and enchantments, the way Morrowind did it, can't be implemented, at least not nearly as well as it works in Morrowind. There's a lot of things like that, because Skyrim modding is a lot more locked down than the previous two TES games.

Skyrim has movespeed mults to handle the slowdown from frost and heavy armor. You could easily script some boots to triple the default when worn. I have no idea how blind can be accomplished.

NPC scheduling is folly though. You either spend way too much work autistically messing with every single NPC, or half-ass it and make something that's crap. It's also the main driver behind the nav points, quest markers, and unkillable NPCs that Oblivion added.
9ea761 No.14871426
>>14870367
If you keep schedules simple it shouldn't be too bad, and if they have pathfinding then you can just tell them where to go (if they get buggy maybe outline a route) so it shouldn't be that much of a challenge. As for requiring unkillable NPCs don't enemies ignore NPCs in Morrowind? I don't think I've ever seen two fighting and I see cliff racers wandering near towns all the time. If that's the case then it shouldn't be a problem and it really shows that the unkillable NPCs are more a side-effect of poorly programmed aggro systems.
