Is it possible to create a mod that allows you to lean left and right when New Vegas gets the script extender? It will help with shooting around corners.
Yes and No, Even after NVSE gets released with the necessary functions to do a mod of this nature it still requires someone to make the animations for leaning (Already exist as I created them for http://www.fallout3nexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=9396), and it requires someone who knows the correct way to alter the camera positioning on the Fly without screwing up the camera position permanantly (also already done http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xUbkBZJv4iE), and there is yet another issue and that is the game does NOT allow you to fire a weapon while under the influence of a Special Idle so this requires more KeyPress function checks to Fake Firing a weapon while at the same time it requires the necessity for a ton of Weapon Setting Get's just to fill up the fake firing and still yet more issues as FIreWeapon does not trigger the Attacking animations so you also have to force PlayGroup them and that has its whole own set of issues that cause problems.
And you are now cought up to why I never released my Leaning or Dodging Modules for ECM.
I second this genious idea. :tops:
Though there is a slight issue I can see with this. Games that have this mechanic, S.T.A.L.K.E.R. is a good example, usually use the Q and E keys for leaning. The issues with this is Q is assigned to autorun in the settings, even though this can be easily fixed by assigning that key somewhere else (because who uses autorun anyway?). But E, as you probably know, is assigned to the activate/use key, so unless you can assign that somewhere else where it's still in relative use (the only keys available near the WASD cluster are X and C, which would be very awkward to use and I personally bind X to change between running and walking), then I don't see this mod happening.
The only way I see around it is if you could probably bind C to change the camera instead of F, then bind F for the use key, thus freeing up E, and then bind the auto run key to something else so you can free up Q.
I personally wouldn't mind doing this, but I doubt most users would want to go through this ordeal just to have a leaning function.
Buttons are not an issue they are almost all re-bindable.
I would also like to see a mod that makes you bleed out when you are shot and you have to use bandages.
Not to my Taste to be honest, I hate CHORE mods and this would become an annoying chore you have to do after every single fight equals an gigantic waste of time overall.
