Hello modders,

I search the forum about a mod which makes PC unable to run with one or the two legs crippled.
I found nothing about it. There's a lot of mods about general crippled effects or walking/running speed and all of them are very good.
But what I need is a more drastic fix : I can't figure out how a PC or NPC could run with one or two crippled legs. I undersand some multi-legged critters like radscorpion could do with it, but for android bipeds, I don't know.
Maybe it could be easy to mod such an effect.
The ideal combo for me would be the use of FO3 animations, higher walking speed, running speed untouched, global speed lightly lowered when weapons drawn, strong skill maluses for crippled limbs and unability to run with a leg crippled.
That's it, if some modder is boring...

Thanx

So, what you're saying is that if both left and right legs are crippled, the player is unable to move? No. That's horrible, because, well, if you don't have any Doctor's Bags or Stimpacks, your just going to stand in the same spot, forever and ever.

I have to agree with the above reply . . . it would not be any fun to be unable to move if both legs were crippled. If you are playing in hardcoe mod, you need a doctor bag for each crippled limb, which is not something that you are always going have. Making things more realistic is one thing, but there's a fine line between realism and making the game unplayable.

But I've added some of what you want as part my Realism Tweaks. In the default game, one crippled leg results in a 15% reduction of movement speed (both walking and running), and 2 crippled limbs result in a 25% speed penalty. This were not nearly enough of a penalty for me, so I changed them to 40% and 60% speed reductions. You can still "run" when both limbs are crippled, but you're not going to get anywhere fast. I've also Tweaked the walking/running speeds and increased the holstered weapon speed bonus . . . and added a number of other crippled penalties, such as not being able to jump when a leg is crippled, and not being able to use some weapons when an arm is crippled.
