Hell yeah bro. In fact, I originally made it for my Starwind modlist.

#

I have another component I'm gonna pull out for Starwind specifically, but only after this and the H4ND are formally released

the compass is as well

pseudo fox Nov 15, 2025, 1:43 AM

Just got it working after updating h3. Everything is working great. One piece of unsolicited feedback I have is perhaps considering a step forward/back animation instead of front/backflip

oblique lava Nov 15, 2025, 1:54 AM

Sure, totally! There's different animations at different encumbrance levels

I need to gate the ninja flip off beind 75 acrobatics or something

hello all, I made a new character and this bug occurred. Before I had this bug aswell but it dissapeared and I thought it is fixed. Anyone knows how to fix this?

#

blocking skill is 0

exotic knoll Nov 16, 2025, 6:12 PM

#

I'm not sure if this is an intended behavior

#

When blocking with shield, it disappears + when I release the keybind, my character sheathes their weapon

Not a bug

dark hill Nov 16, 2025, 6:25 PM

#

oblique lava Not a bug

this is intended? Blocking skill got removed?

oblique lava Nov 16, 2025, 6:25 PM

#

It's not really "removed" per se

#

it's just setting a modifier to zero

#

Block still levels up and is used for a bunch of things throughout the mod.

oblique lava Nov 16, 2025, 6:27 PM

#

exotic knoll I'm not sure if this is an intended behavior

Does that persist through a save/load?

oblique lava Nov 16, 2025, 6:32 PM

#

Hm.

#

I think you are running into some kind of mod conflict.

#

The only place I ever set stance is when your poise is broken.

#

As for the shield just disappearing, I'm... not real sure about that. It looks like it's being unequipped.

#

but, I've had the sheathing thing happen maybe once or twice

exotic knoll Nov 16, 2025, 6:34 PM

#

oblique lava As for the shield just *disappearing*, I'm... not real sure about that. It looks...

It doesn't get unequipped, actually

#

oblique lava Nov 16, 2025, 6:35 PM

#

okay, so it's only the stance change happening.

exotic knoll Nov 16, 2025, 6:35 PM

#

Otherwise I'd maybe blame Shield Unequipper for it

oblique lava Nov 16, 2025, 6:36 PM

#

something's setting your stance back to nothing... but if poise broke, you'd know by being knocked down

#

I can't really post my modlist because of how many configs it's spread out across, but, here's my log, maybe my load order will prove insightful

Random question can enemies crit you

oblique lava Nov 20, 2025, 5:35 PM

#

Oh yes.

#

They can fumble on you as well.

#

You'll most likely know when either happens. 😅

woeful tide Nov 20, 2025, 5:35 PM

#

already had 4 instances where I got 1 shot

#

I have other mods where I lose attributes when I die

#

this is amazing I love this mod Sector

oblique lava Nov 20, 2025, 5:37 PM

#

Hahaha. All the crit/fumble settings are tweakable! Including just turning it off lol. Glad you're enjoying it 💜

woeful tide Nov 20, 2025, 5:38 PM

#

No way im tweaking it. I love this

oblique lava Nov 20, 2025, 5:43 PM

#

🫡

#

Everything working okay though?

woeful tide Nov 20, 2025, 5:44 PM

#

Mostly. I have noticed that humanoid enemies with weapons have their block up non stop

#

There was an instance where the knock down animation in hand to hand just made the target stand there and slide around

oblique lava Nov 20, 2025, 5:47 PM

#

Like ones without shields specifically?

woeful tide Nov 20, 2025, 5:58 PM

#

yes

#

oblique lava Nov 20, 2025, 5:59 PM

I moved it to a text file sorry

oblique lava Nov 20, 2025, 6:01 PM

#

Ah no worries.

#

Ohh yeah I see it can't figure out how long he's supposed to block cause he doesn't have a block skill.

I thought I fixed that. Guess not.

woeful tide Nov 20, 2025, 6:02 PM

#

yeah ive been striking that one guy for 2 minutes straight in god mode to test and its not doing anything with his guard up

oblique lava Nov 20, 2025, 6:02 PM

#

It's blowing up specifically when it's trying to find out how long he blocks, so yea he's just stuck. Easy fix!

woeful tide Nov 20, 2025, 6:02 PM

#

Ash Slave turned on TGM too

#

hmm interesting. I just broke its poise and it released the block stance. The main problem is now it took 3-4 minutes of just non stop hitting to break the stance

oblique lava Nov 20, 2025, 6:05 PM

#

I'm kinda surprised you were able to break it's stance.

#

It shouldn't have very much Poise but I'd think the errors here would hit before poise calcs run at all

fathom bridge Nov 20, 2025, 6:09 PM

I'll have to check out more humanoid types

Do you have a shield equipped?

.... or is it a torch?

woeful tide Nov 20, 2025, 6:37 PM

Torch

oblique lava Nov 20, 2025, 6:40 PM

#

yep.

woeful tide Nov 20, 2025, 6:42 PM

#

Torch won't let me block. Is the error pointing at the player character?

oblique lava Nov 20, 2025, 6:44 PM

#

There's two, one's happening when it tries to play the block sound and the other is when you have a torch equipped

#

Patched build is in the oven

#

oh, wait no, there's another thing in here

woeful tide Nov 20, 2025, 6:58 PM

#

Another thing happened LOL

#

No lua errors here

oblique lava Nov 20, 2025, 7:00 PM

#

patched version is up btw

#

The way other actors handle doing blocks/rolls is that everyone nearby who does an attack will tell nearby combatants about it. Not the smartest, prone to false positives. I think I can make it smarter though.

#

Torches.

#

I thought I accounted for those but I guess not.

woeful tide Nov 20, 2025, 7:06 PM

#

Roger

oblique lava Nov 20, 2025, 7:09 PM

#

I pushed a commit to also make sure they'll never block if not in Weapon stance just now

#

I realize just now this probably means npcs will block with ranged weapons, but that sounds funny, so let's roll it and see what happens

#

ah crap that reminds me I should... probably not allow parrying ranged attacks. Lmao.

woeful tide Nov 20, 2025, 7:15 PM

#

God i just imagined someone with the block stance with a bow in their hand just sprinting towards me doing nothing

oblique lava Nov 20, 2025, 7:17 PM

#

At most, the turtliest of turtley characters should only hold it for about 3-5 seconds, if they even decide to do that

#

Whether or not they block is primarily stat-based with a little chance thrown in so I doubt they'd do it much or for long. But idunno

grave umbra Nov 20, 2025, 7:21 PM

#

Blocking with a bow should do incredible amounts of condition damage to it

#

Or don't allow it and you can reserve the block button for something else while ranged

#

Like aim assist

oblique lava Nov 20, 2025, 7:23 PM

#

Well I def won't allow players to do it.

#

Y'know what I was kinda thinking I might try is ADS, exactly the way FO3 does it

#

Which I am well aware is the shittiest ADS that man has ever invented, but it would actually kinda work for bows/crossbows

#

but that's already a thing so meh

#

I even have another mod for that. 😅

#

yea maybe I should just let you block with bows and break them terribly.

fathom bridge Nov 20, 2025, 10:27 PM

#

Hmmm I kinda like that idea

grave umbra Nov 21, 2025, 12:03 AM

#

You know, you could give different weapons different resistances to blocking condition damage in general

#

Maybe base it on weapon weight

oblique lava Nov 21, 2025, 12:08 AM

#

I like that.

#

Perhaps it should have some relationship between the two weapon weights

#

EG, if I try to block your claymore with my chitin dagger (lmao) if you manage to hit the thing, you're probably just gonna slice it in half

#

Or vice versa, if I have daedric claymore I can sit here and tank dagger hits all day

grave umbra Nov 21, 2025, 12:12 AM

#

I really just want more reasons to use early game equipment, which are generally heavier

#

They already have inferior max condition so any buff there would be nice

oblique lava Nov 21, 2025, 12:13 AM

#

Sure!

#

And tbh I don't really like the way I'm doing durability damage anyway. It's literally what vanilla does, optionally taking damage mitigation into account (which only sorta makes sense, I think?)

grave umbra Nov 21, 2025, 12:17 AM

#

I guess you could also compare durability of your weapon vs durability of the armor piece you hit

#

Use that for something

#

Or no durability damage on your weapon for hitting someone whose poise broke

oblique lava Nov 21, 2025, 12:21 AM

#

y'know I'm not actually even offhandedly sure how weapon durability damage happens

#

Pretty sure that could be a thing. 🤔

woeful tide Nov 21, 2025, 4:09 AM

#

Any way to adjust the health of enemies and not my own?

oblique lava Nov 21, 2025, 4:12 AM

#

No, it's not really but to take that into account, like, as a concept.

#

Everybody gets the same rules.

#

I could do that I guess, that's just kinda how I did it already, though.

woeful tide Nov 21, 2025, 4:13 AM

#

gotcha. I might see if I can cap my strength with NCG

oblique lava Nov 21, 2025, 4:14 AM

#

oh, uh, wait

#

You could adjust the difficulty slider. Like the in-game one.

#

Usually what I do is play at difficulty 0, but above 0 makes you do progressively less damage in melee and them more, and vice versa.

woeful tide Nov 21, 2025, 4:15 AM

#

I already have difficulty set to 100 36vehks

#

Its all good Ill see if i can tweak other settings. Im in a state of they either 2-3 shot me or I 2-3 shot them

oblique lava Nov 21, 2025, 4:19 AM

#

you know, that's actually, like...

#

really that's exactly where it's designed to be! I'm really glad to hear that

woeful tide Nov 21, 2025, 4:19 AM

#

Ahh ok im glad to hear that

#

I feel like its awkward having 158 strength

oblique lava Nov 21, 2025, 4:20 AM

#

Maybe the damage ceilings are too high 🤔

#

I could replace the base damage calculation I guess

woeful tide Nov 21, 2025, 4:21 AM

#

Granted im using daedric weapons

#

i can probably be restrictive to make it feel more intense

oblique lava Nov 21, 2025, 4:24 AM

#

Hm.

#

I do wanna keep the higher end interesting. I wish I had an actual late game character I could play to test this, lol

woeful tide Nov 21, 2025, 3:12 PM

#

How late game are we talking about

oblique lava Nov 21, 2025, 8:58 PM

#

Idunno, like 20-25

#

maybe a 50 also

#

To be perfectly honest I don't play the game enough to know what actually constitutes "late game" anymore and what that looks like these days

#

my mental model of how late game in morrowind works is very, uh... 2017

oblique lava Dec 4, 2025, 11:02 PM

#

I've been thinking about it and I was sorta thinking maybe I could just make blind its own hit chance layer

#

I'm not really sure what else I could do other than just completely neuter the effect in combat

grave umbra Dec 4, 2025, 11:13 PM

#

Maybe chuck in a reverse-tonemapper that reduces saturation. Not strictly gameplay but it's something

#

Oh second thought, don't put a shader in there. It will probably break on the gameboy

oblique lava Dec 4, 2025, 11:25 PM

I mean, it's not hard to... make sure that doesn't happen

#

Is there anyway to exclude a specific NPC from HP calculations?

oblique lava Dec 5, 2025, 5:47 PM

#

I guess I could add one, but no. Why?

#

Is gaenor kicking your shit in?

woeful tide Dec 5, 2025, 5:48 PM

#

I made Gaenor extremely hard but his health is fixed at 126.

I think i might have figured out how to fix his health

#

I 1 shot him before which was super anti-climactic

oblique lava Dec 5, 2025, 5:49 PM

#

Damn, uh, I think I have a balance issue then.

woeful tide Dec 5, 2025, 5:50 PM

#

The Endurance stat in the Openmw CS only brings it up to 255 but that didnt change his health. Modifying his health live also gets reset. Only way I was able to increase his health was by blowing up his Endurance to an absurd number

oblique lava Dec 5, 2025, 5:51 PM

#

Yeah, that's what I mean, I have a balance issue here, 126 seems way too low

#

I kinda figured we'd run into this sorta thng eventually

#

#

linear health multiplier or health vitality multiplier would probably be appropriate depending on how you wanna do it

#

health vit mult would benefit whoever's on the "stronger" end of your diminish exponent, so like, if the exponent is low, health vit mult is more effective for characters with low END, etc

woeful tide Dec 5, 2025, 5:54 PM

#

hmm bringing up that number to 0.9 brought himn up to 189

#

This might also be a problem because his base endurance value goes up to 100

#

Without me having given him steroids

oblique lava Dec 5, 2025, 5:55 PM

#

No, that's just gaenor.

#

I don't touch attribute values, ever.

woeful tide Dec 5, 2025, 5:56 PM

#

Oh no I know that I was just saying in general

oblique lava Dec 5, 2025, 5:56 PM

#

Ohhh yeah.

#

Well, I was never 100% faithful in the way I did health, if the settings you have now work better lmk

#

Maybe I could do a thing where we increase some of the values over time 🤔

woeful tide Dec 5, 2025, 5:57 PM

#

maybe. Im doing flat Attribute number increases

#

Im adjusting the water flowing in the pipe, not the pipe itself per se.

oblique lava Dec 5, 2025, 5:58 PM

#

Generally speaking the health module's built to shrink the overall size of the pipe, so we avoid that Skyrim problem where everything is a fkn health sponge

#

but I always kinda thought maybe it isn't well tuned for the high end

fathom bridge Dec 5, 2025, 5:59 PM

Sector, did you get a chance to check out HBFS with the CHIM Calcs?

oblique lava Dec 5, 2025, 5:59 PM

find gaenor, open the console, click him, luas, do this:

I.s3ChimDynamic.Manager.manageHealth = function() end
I.s3ChimDynamic.Manager.updateStats = function() end

#

he should then no longer be affected by health calculations as that will disable them outright

woeful tide Dec 5, 2025, 9:43 PM

#

Sector just a fyi it looks like the CHIM mod overrides the scripts on Gedna Relvel

https://en.uesp.net/wiki/Tribunal:Gedna_Relvel

By default, Gedna has 700 health, 1,000 fatigue, and 1,000 magicka, and the script is intended to increase these values by 100, 400, and 300 times the player's level respectively. However, the script has two bugs. First, the level check is performed incorrectly, terminating the script before any bonuses are applied. Second, all three bonuses are applied to Gedna's health, meaning it would be increased by 800 times the player's level.
Some unofficial patch versions and OpenMW fix the first bug (which causes an error in the vanilla game and thus can be caught by debugging tools) without touching the second one (which does not cause an error). This allows the script to apply the bonuses and create an incredibly strong Gedna. For example, even as low as level 10 the player would face an enemy with 8,700 health.

Tribunal:Gedna Relvel

Gedna Relvel is a lich that can be found in Gedna Relvel's Tomb in Old Mournhold. In life, she was a powerful sorceress, condemned for studying and practicing forbidden magics. She was laid to rest somewhere under Mournhold many years ago, but nobody realized that she had developed the power to cheat death itself.
When you get close, Gedna Relve...

#

1 shot poor Gedna

oblique lava Dec 5, 2025, 9:45 PM

#

Shit.

#

Well.

#

I guess probably the sane thing to do is just apply the changes when they first load instead of aggressively trying to enforce it all over the place

woeful tide Dec 5, 2025, 9:51 PM

#

Probably. I know the original script is supposed to be Gedna really buff

#

But it was broken and just left them at base HP (700)

Is there any way this will work with TES3MP? They are working with .49 I believe so I don't have high hopes

oblique lava Dec 6, 2025, 5:40 AM

#

#

I was the last person to make public commits to tes3mp, over two years ago now, other than trofi's gcc 13 fix which I didn't bother dealing with. If it's on .49, or .48, or even remotely close to doing so, I don't know anything about that.

#

People have been coming to me and telling me my .49 stuff would work on tes3mp soon for... idunno, a year

#

Last I checked, the old gal doesn't even compile on Visual Studio anymore, so I just gave up even maintaining my forked repo.

silver karma Dec 6, 2025, 2:49 PM

#

I was going off the TES3MP discord, in November it sounded like work was being done to update. guess that wasn't the case. Thats sad

oblique lava Dec 6, 2025, 8:09 PM

#

I genuinely believe he's trying and equally do not believe from having tried to update tes3mp myself because I got tired of waiting, that it's even possible to do it

#

So much of it needs remade that you honestly might as well just start over for the state it's in. It's bad in there. I could yak to you all day about how much broken, unfinished stuff is laying about in all those various repositories it needs to run. Honestly, it is pretty disappointing.

But that's why I do engine dev 😄

#

It'd be like if I had a Ford from 1980, and one I bought this morning, and asked you to retrofit all the components of my new car into the frame of my old one.

#

Perhaps you could do that, or perhaps I could just enjoy the new car smell.

tardy yarrow Dec 7, 2025, 2:58 AM

#

Hmm idk what I'm missing but I can't seem to manually block

#

I'm using TO though so the answer is pretty obvious: Something's conflicting lol

oblique lava Dec 7, 2025, 2:59 AM

#

This should definitely work on TO

#

Lemme double check the config

#

Do any of the animations work?

tardy yarrow Dec 7, 2025, 3:00 AM

#

Oh no wow it totally does work something bugged up

#

I reloaded and it works now

#

one sec let me test something

#

Huh actually I can't reproduce it

#

I originally mapped it without thinking to "Q" forgetting that's what auto-run is bound to

#

and it did like a wiggle attempt at animating and failed and then it didn't seem to work

#

I can't reproduce it though, may have just been a script hiccup

oblique lava Dec 7, 2025, 3:02 AM

#

Yeah, I just bind it to right click, and put inventory on tab

#

since we use action camera swap you might as well unbind the view switch completely (if you haven't removed that, anyway)

tardy yarrow Dec 7, 2025, 3:03 AM

#

I always disable that

#

personally I don't like automatic switching

oblique lava Dec 7, 2025, 3:04 AM

#

Most people aren't fans, I got used to it eventually, but honestly chim is mostly focused on 3p gameplay so once I feel like redoing the animations I'll probably remove it

woeful tide Dec 7, 2025, 3:09 AM

#

I actually don't mind the action camera

tardy yarrow Dec 7, 2025, 3:10 AM

#

holy wow, I don't feel like a betty netch should be 2 shotting me

#

I'm not going to chalk that up to chim2090 though I'm on a very old save

oblique lava Dec 7, 2025, 3:11 AM

#

Could be though, I do recalculate health and stuff.

#

I'm not 100% faithful in my health formula atm either

meager compass Dec 7, 2025, 3:11 AM

#

yeah itll get ya

woeful tide Dec 7, 2025, 3:13 AM

#

It makes u rethink how you approach combat

tardy yarrow Dec 7, 2025, 3:13 AM

#

I meaaaaan I don't think 100% faithful should be the goal in an "always hit" mod

#

that's kinda been the biggest caveat with those kinds of mods, Morrowind at its foundation just isn't designed for always hitting especially when you factor in on-hit enchants

oblique lava Dec 7, 2025, 3:13 AM

#

I just mean that I'm not confident in the way it works, not so much that I care about accuracy to MW

tardy yarrow Dec 7, 2025, 3:14 AM

#

scaling damage with skill is one thing, but even a 5 damage on-hit enchant is suddenly busted strong early on when you always hit

oblique lava Dec 7, 2025, 3:15 AM

#

Yeah, I remember Max Yari actually did some work on it with that a while back, but I haven't made it back around to dealing with enchantment applications myself yet

tardy yarrow Dec 7, 2025, 3:15 AM

#

I'll have to test this more on a proper fresh save because its a really good concept and execution

#

of something that I think is generally seen as a flat out "bad idea" with Morrowind mods

#

I mean "souls-like combat" and "always hit?" in Morrowind?

oblique lava Dec 7, 2025, 3:15 AM

#

Thank you 🙂 The way the animations work in third person really really bothers me though so I needed to take a break for a bit because they need reworked.

#

The original core of the idea is Glancing Blows and Hits from MWSE... I notice it seems to be the main one people say they like

#

4nm is too much for a lot of people, glancing blows and hits is kinda in the middle

tardy yarrow Dec 7, 2025, 3:16 AM

#

One thing I haven't seen I don't think with these "always hit" mods

#

is just... not making enchants always hit

#

I don't know if thats possible with OpenMW, I know it wasn't with .49

oblique lava Dec 7, 2025, 3:17 AM

#

That's a big reason I haven't done anything about it myself, because I'm not sure what.

#

I think max removed enchantments on fumbles, but I think I would remove enchants on everything except crits. Maybe.

tardy yarrow Dec 7, 2025, 3:18 AM

#

I feel like that would be the best solution maybe to the hit enchant conundrum, just have enchants only work on a "solid" hit

oblique lava Dec 7, 2025, 3:18 AM

#

Or maybe, even better, if the attack is fully charged

tardy yarrow Dec 7, 2025, 3:18 AM

#

what a solid hit means 🤷‍♂️ maybe just as much as running the vanilla hit detection maybe

#

like having enchants follow vanilla detection formula and damage always hit

oblique lava Dec 7, 2025, 3:19 AM

#

Huh.

#

That's a neat idea.

tardy yarrow Dec 7, 2025, 3:19 AM

#

It would make skill level feel even more relevant

oblique lava Dec 7, 2025, 3:19 AM

#

I copied the defender-side portion of hit chance at one point but I never had anything to do with it. I might've deletd it.

#

Tbh I might add an option to do either of these because they both sound fun to me 😄

#

Either, fully charge the attack to apply enchant, or hit chance works

#

eh... probably for NPCs requiring fully charged hit would suck though, they randomize

tardy yarrow Dec 7, 2025, 3:20 AM

#

fully charge sounds more fun from a like

#

"Feel" standpoint I think

#

like you're charging it up and thinking "oh yeah this is gonna hurt"

oblique lava Dec 7, 2025, 3:20 AM

#

I'm gonna getcha with this one.

tardy yarrow Dec 7, 2025, 3:21 AM

#

I guess it also adds a layer of strategy to the player deciding when they want to expend an enchant charge

#

but decoupling enchant onto its own "vanilla" formula sounds easier to balance

#

removes a lot of thought from it since its "basically vanilla"

oblique lava Dec 7, 2025, 3:22 AM

#

Yeah, NPCs would probably have to work that way... but on player-side, can err more interactive

tardy yarrow Dec 7, 2025, 3:24 AM

#

Oh yeah good point I didn't even think about NPCs

#

Well anyway mod 🔥 I usually hate "hurr soulslike in everything mod" but this one isn't that

#

and "always hit mod that's actually still fun and challenging and balanced" is like a Morrowind pipe dream I think

oblique lava Dec 7, 2025, 3:25 AM

#

I appreciate it, I've tried to pay respects to the good parts of both formulae

#

I actually totally loved 4NM and I might even one day go back to it to poach some ideas from this but I can't deal with MWSE

tardy yarrow Dec 7, 2025, 3:26 AM

#

idk who 4NM is and yeah MWSE/MGE was always neat to me but

#

idk I just never got super into it

#

I basically just played Morrowind from launch until a good bit after Oblivion and then shelved it and kinda touched on it every now and then over the years

#

but OpenMW .49 is the first time I've come back and actually started putting hours in it

oblique lava Dec 7, 2025, 3:27 AM

#

Definitely the best time to get in! We're two record breaking years in a row now in terms of mods...

#

I didn't think we could do better than last year but someone ran the numbers last month and about 24%? I think it was of all MW mods on nexus are from this year

#

maybe it was the last two or three years or something, idr exactly

tardy yarrow Dec 7, 2025, 3:28 AM

#

I'm gonna jump channels hold on

cunning mist Dec 9, 2025, 7:57 PM

Really dope mod, I really liked having a battles with it, i got a few bugs that i dont think are being reported here though, all of these happened on an old and new save:

NPCs blocking indefinitely while still being able to attack while blocking and being invulnurable for some reason (seemed to only stop after i readied my hands for a spell) (Did a few things with the scripts menu, but it didnt seem to affect them),

Parrying only seemed to work on creatures (either i went invulnurable or counter attacked) but NPCs seem to be unaffected (Did a few things with the scripts menu, but it didnt seem to affect them),

Probably the worst bug is when you get knocked to the ground and your first person camera starts spinning wildly, and after you get up you literally cannot attack with any weapon other than your fists (Because pressing Use (The attack button for readied weapon) sheathes it (It also breaks blocking for some reason, like it wont block or play the animation [Also worth noting that you cant block with fists, not a bug, but an interesting fact because the fists were functional, only the other weapons werent]))

Those are the only bugs i encountered, I think this mod will absolutely be a smash hit when it officially releases, cause most combat mods ive seen dont really have that huge of an (in my opinion) impact on gameplay, sure you can feel some of the changes and it does mix things up a little, but most of it doesnt feel... in my words, right. But adding an actually functional blocking system (that is based on the player deciding wether to block or not, not on a dice roll) and parrying system actually gives the player more of a reason to pay even more attention to combat, but also with the parrying system rewards them for doing just that (and having good reflexes). This will absolutely go HARD on the more combat-oriented modders.

oblique lava Dec 18, 2025, 6:34 PM

#

Thanks ❤️
In general, if an enemy becomes invulnerable, that's a dead giveaway the script's onHit handler is busting somewhere, somehow. Fortunately, those are really easy to fix, but I do need to grab an openmw.log from a session where you ran into that.

I saw it and forgot i played a few minutes without it, so i think it was overwritten with newer stuff so i reenabled it, launched my game and blocking didnt work, so i moved it lower on my load order and tried to replicate the bugs, but it seems like the first didnt appear XD, the second worked but the guards outside seemed to ignore the attempted parrying? (i am running it on default settings with a cheat character), third i havent played yet...

GitLab must be screwing with me again... I can tell from these errors the build you have is stale. But it doesn't seem to be anything you did. Here:

📎 chim_2090.zip

#

No worries! Just wanna make sure I understand what's going on 🙂
but yea both your log errors are pointing to stuff that doesn't... quite exist anymore. I guess gitlab is serving stale builds to people now.

#

I'm like 90% sure I already fixed this exact problem

#

idk if my repo is just too powerful for gitlab or what but this seems to be a recurring problem nowadays

meager compass Dec 18, 2025, 10:20 PM

a few of us had this issue with not being able to get the most recent build, someone recommended to solve by loading the page in a private tab 🤷

oblique lava Dec 18, 2025, 10:21 PM

#

well, like, the links aren't dynamic, they never change. So, there might be various things you can do on your end for gitlab to actually serve you the latest file, but... I don't think there's anything I can do to combat it. Maybe.

It's okay i know the solution to this problem

what do you guys think a good value for on-hit XP is, given this mod guarantees hits? with Skill Evolution, you can set the XP ratio so I'm thinking like 0.1 or something?

#

so 10% xp of a vanilla hit. I think ideally it would be based on damage with this mod but I'm not sure if that's possible

odd tangle Feb 1, 2026, 11:48 PM

curious how this setting in Skill Evolution will interact with CHIM 2090, though I would guess that the setting for 100% chance is always used

https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/51034 this mod has a really cool feature where you and NPCs have a chance to parry attacks with your weapon based on your block skill (which also grants it EXP) that comes with some really cool SFX and animations.

would something like that be doable as part of this? I personally prefer it working off RNG like vanilla blocking than having it be active

meager compass Feb 6, 2026, 3:02 PM

#

its a flippy roll. i think its a little bit overtuned to be honest. i usually end up using to flee because you make a lot of ground in a straight line if you have low speed

#

i would prefer a smaller step

odd tangle Feb 6, 2026, 7:50 PM

#

in my testing, flippy roll is only if your weight is low (under a certain threshold?)

#

I didn't test whether it was equip weight or total weight but I would think equip weight

#

when I put on heavy armor, the roll became a side step

meager compass Feb 6, 2026, 9:03 PM

#

I use light armor so I didn't know the step was implemented. Is there a way to set it to run with light armor?

odd tangle Feb 6, 2026, 9:08 PM

#

if there's not a setting on the Rolling settings page, there's probably a threshold value somewhere in the scripts

#

I don't really use the roll but if it has i-frames maybe I should be using it to side step out the way of mage bolts lol
edit: I did not see a setting for it in the menu
