There are three versions. All require FOSE.
Do not use multiple versions at the same time.
-----------------------------------------------------------
Dynamic Version
-----------------------------------------------------------
This modifies weapon damage to be dependent on whether or not you're attacking from higher ground.
The higher the ground you're standing on, the greater the damage you'll do. Conversely; the lower
the ground you're standing on, the less you'll do.
Close combat weapons have their damage increased/decreased by 5% for every 4 points of z-axis
difference (to a maximum of 50%), while ranged weapons have their damage increased/decreased by
5% for every 200 points of z-axis difference (to a maximum of 50%).
There are two optional plugins included:
1) NPCs Unaffected
2) UPP Higher Ground Patch
The first makes it so that only the player's damage is ever affected, while the second alters the
Ultimate Perk Pack's Higher Ground perk to work whenever you have the higher ground (its x2 damage
bonus is unaltered).
-----------------------------------------------------------
Flat-Rate Version
-----------------------------------------------------------
This modifies weapon damage to be dependent on whether or not you're attacking from higher ground.
If you're standing on higher ground your damage will be increased, but if your target is on higher
ground your damage will be reduced.
There are nine optional damage bonus/penalty plugins included; 10% through 50% (default is 5%).
***USE ONLY ONE***
And there are two optional misc plugins included:
1) NPCs Unaffected
2) UPP Higher Ground Patch
The first makes it so that only the player's damage is ever affected, while the second alters the
Ultimate Perk Pack's Higher Ground perk to work whenever you have the higher ground (its x2 damage
bonus is unaltered).
-----------------------------------------------------------
Ultimate Perk Pack Higher Ground Patch
-----------------------------------------------------------
This modifies the UPP's Higher Ground perk to provide its effect whenever you actually have the
higher ground.
You no longer have to be standing on a table or chair.
The Dynamic and Flat Rate versions have a UPP Patch already included as an optional addon, so
only download this if you want height-based damage to apply to the UPP perk alone.
