v1.1 fixed Agility Clipping, Resist Magicka Reporting with "\" keyv1.2 changed buff clipping and kickback messageboxes to be more immersive with added customization options thanks to w-h-reaper and greatness7 for feedback about itv1.3 removed restore-attribute method that suppressed attribute drains below base values, interfering with NOM, etc. side-effect is that attribute buff clipping will sometimes result in attribute damage, due to morrowind engine bug, but that seems a reasonable additional penalty to over-buffing. thanks to LCT for reporting the issue and verifying the fixExamples:
Base Intelligence<=25, Base Personality<=25 -> Maximum Intelligence Buff = +25
Base Intelligence=50, Base Personality=50 -> Maximum Intelligence Buff = +37
Base Intelligence=50, Base Personality=100 -> Maximum Intelligence Buff = +50
Base Intelligence=100, Base Personality=25 -> Maximum Intelligence Buff = +50
Base Intelligence=100, Base Personality=50 -> Maximum Intelligence Buff = +62
Base Intelligence=100, Base Personality=100 -> Maximum Intelligence Buff = +75
Base Intelligence=150, Base Personality=100 -> Maximum Intelligence Buff = +100
Base Personality<=50 -> Maximum Chameleon/Sanctuary Buff = +25
Base Personality=75 -> Maximum Chameleon/Sanctuary Buff = +37
Base Personality=100 -> Maximum Chameleon/Sanctuary Buff = +50
Base Personality=125 -> Maximum Chameleon/Sancturay Buff = +62
Base Willpower<=50 -> Maximum Resist Fire/Frost/Poison/Shock/Magic Buff = +25
Base Willpower=75 -> Maximum Willpower Fire/Frost/Poison/Shock/Magic Buff = +37
Base Willpower=100 -> Maximum Willpower Fire/Frost/Poison/Shock/Magic Buff = +50
Base Willpower=125 -> Maximum Willpower Fire/Frost/Poison/Shock/Magic Buff = +62
So by default personality is no longer a dump stat. The inspiration for making attribute buf maximum dependent on personality comes from the D&D v3.5 'use magic device' skill based on charisma attribute; a strong personality (acting skill) enables the pc to harness greater buffs than their base values. If not wanted, this personality contribution can be disabled in the console with 'set sve_base_per_att_buff_mod to 0'
