Mighty_Bows_Mods_Set is a set of independent mods which somehow or other change ranged combat gameplay. Each mod can work with others (from this set) without any conflict with one exception - Mighty_Bows_Sneak_DMG_Bonus_Alt and Mighty_Bows_Sneak_DMG_Bonus mods.


VERSION HISTORY:
__________________


ver 1.05 (17 April 2006)
------------------

- Changed position of the enemy health indicator in Mighty_Bows_Small_Crosshair mod. Not it should be symmetrical relative to the crosshair.


Added 3 mods:


- Mighty_Bows_Bonus_Damage mod rebalances bows for "Combat" archers, which don't actively use Stealth. I recommend use it with Mighty_Bows_Improved_Firerate mod.

Each bow now have damage (with full tension of bow-string) = 2H Warhammer dmg from the same material

E.g.
2H Steel Warhammer dmg = 16, so Steel Bow dmg = 16 (original = 9)
2H Daedric Warhammer dmg =28, so Daeric Bow dmg = 28 (original = 20)



- Mighty_Bows_Sneak_DMG_Bonus mod makes Marksman Sneak damage multiplier equal to Sneak multiplier for melee weapons.

So Novice Marksman will do 4x damage (original value =2x), Apprentice, Journeyman, Expert and Master Marsksman will do 6x damage (original value = 3x)

Settings changed

fPerkSneakAttackMarksmanNoviceMult (2->4)
fPerkSneakAttackMarksmanApprenticeMult (3->6)
fPerkSneakAttackMarksmanJourneymanMult (3->6)
fPerkSneakAttackMarksmanExpertMult (3->6)
fPerkSneakAttackMarksmanMasterMult (3->6)




- Mighty_Bows_Sneak_DMG_Bonus_Alt is alternative mod for changing Marksman Sneak damage multiplier, which makes development of Marksman skill more noticeable. For that Marksman Sneak damage multiplier increases every rank in Marksman skill.

Final Sneak dmg multipliers:

Novice = 2 (original value = 2)
Apprentice = 3 (original value = 3)
Journeyman = 4 (original value = 3)
Expert = 5 (original value = 3)
Master = 6 (original value = 3)

Settings changed

fPerkSneakAttackMarksmanJourneymanMult (3->4)
fPerkSneakAttackMarksmanExpertMult (3->5)
fPerkSneakAttackMarksmanMasterMult (3->6)



ver 1.02
------------------

Added mod Mighty_Bows_Small_Crosshair. This mod reduces the size of the crosshair and the size of the sneak icon to 60 percent of the original size.

Actually, it is a new-made "CROSSHAIR SIZE REDUCTION" mod (http://www.tessource.net/files/file.php?id=1847). The differences
is in a position of crosshair. In my mod it is very close to position of original crosshair whereas in CROSSHAIR SIZE REDUCTION mod a crosshair is above and left.

For install instructions look at readme.txt in Mighty_Bows_Small_Crosshair.zip


ver 1.01 (original release)
------------------

4 mods:

1) Mighty_Bows_Arrows_Recovery - helps recover your arrows

- Now arrows have 95% chance to stay on a corpse (original = 50%)
- Arrows stay on a ground 10 min (original = 1.5 min)
- Max number of arrows that can stay on a ground or in your body = 60 (original = 15)

Settings changed

- iArrowInventoryChance (50 -> 95)
- fArrowAgeMax (90 ->600)
- iArrowMaxRefCount (15 -> 60)


2) Mighty_Bows_Gravitation_Mod - changed effective and maximum distance for arrows and makes aiming easier

- Effective and maximum distance for arrows = 2 x original
- Gravity for arrows = original / 2 (for better aim)

Settings changed

- fArrowMaxDistance (2000 - > 4000)
- fArrowOptimalDistance (1000 -> 2000)
- fArrowGravityBase (0.3000 -> 0.1500)

3) Mighty_Bows_Improved_Firerate - now you can shoot with maximum damage using method "click and shoot" instead of old "click and wait then shoot". With this mod you don't need to hold a bowstring tense some time for a shot with maximum damage and range. Thus you can do more maximum damage shots per minute

- fArrowBowTimerBase (0.2500 -> 1.0000)

4) Mighty_Bows_Full - all 3 mods (Mighty_Bows_Arrows_Recovery, Mighty_Bows_Gravitation_Mod, Mighty_Bows_Improved_Firerate) in 1
