========================================================
-==1.CURRENT VERSION==-
========================================================

The current version is v1.47d.

It is recommended that you reset your perks or start a new game before running this mod.

This mod requires the Skyrim Script Extender 1.6.16 or newer (download at http://skse.silverlock.org/).



========================================================
-==2.UPDATING==-
========================================================

Overwrite the old .esp and script files, and when you load an old save, open the console ('~' key) and enter the following command:

SetStage aaCRMMainquest 100

Close the console. In a moment, you should receive a message saying that the plugin is updating. You should then be ready to resume play.



========================================================
-==3.DESCRIPTION==-
========================================================

A combat adjustment package inspired by mods like SkyRe, ACE, and Deadly Combat. Credits to the authors of those mods for their excellent work.

This mod does not aim to be as complex or comprehensive as those, but should hopefully have a solid set of streamlined features to make combat more engaging.



========================================================
-==4.FILE: Combat Remastered.esp==-
========================================================

Main module. Includes combat system changes and changes to the weapon, armor, and block perk trees.

=GENERAL CHANGES=

Base melee weapon range from down from 141 to 130.
Arrows are faster, especially with less drawing time. Minimum arrow velocity is increased by 100%, maximum velocity is increased by 50%. Note that damage for any given draw strength is unchanged. Ini tweaks recommended to make arrows follow crosshair (see "Recommended Ini Tweaks" near the end of this readme).
Power attack and power bash cost halved.
Power attack costs increase slightly as your base stamina rises, increasing the extra base stamina needed for more power attacks.
Weapon speed reduced to 90%.
Melee weapon damage ranges from 150% to 75%, depending on stamina %.
Combatants take up to 50% extra damage at low stamina levels.
Combatants take another 30% damage if struck while winding up for an attack or spellcasting or while staggered.
Base stamina regen greatly increased, especially when at low levels.

Stamina regen halts while attacking, being staggered, or 2 seconds after blocking an attack.
Attacking drains stamina with each swing, based on the weight of the weapon.
Combatants take stamina damage if hit with a melee weapon while they are attacking or casting a spell. The stamina damage increases based on the attacker's weapon, skill and level, but decreases based on the attacker's current stamina percentage and the victim's current health.

Blocking costs a bit of stamina to initiate, depending on the weight of the item you are using.
-When dual wielding and blocking (using Dual Wield Parrying by Borgut1337), the left weapon is used for weight calculations.
Blocking an attack drains stamina based on the weights of the clashing objects and the attacker's weapon skill vs. your block skill.
-When using a shield, its base armor rating is added to their weight for this calculation, making shields better than weapons at reducing stamina loss.
Blocking further reduces a % of damage received based on your remaining stamina %.
Blocking a normal attack slows down the attacker's wind up speed if they try to attack too soon after being blocked.
Timed blocking. Raise your guard just before an attack hits to negate normal attack damage. This also uses less stamina and does not halt your regen for as long against both normal and power attacks. Some perks add further bonuses to timed blocks.

Stamina regenerates more slowly when running, especially with armor.
Movement is slower at lower stamina levels, especially with armor.
Exact regen and movement penalties depend on number of pieces worn and whether they are light or heavy.
Melee Weapon speed and damage are also reduced at lower stamina, though armor does not directly influence these penalties.
Ranged weapons are slowed down more than melee weapons in exchange for not losing any damage at low stamina levels.
Enemies may try to distance themselves if they're at low stamina and you're not using a ranged weapon/spell.

You can cancel melee attacks by pressing the Sneak key (default 'ctrl') during attack windup.
Enemies can cancel attacks too, depending on how heavy their weapon is and how much stamina they have left.

Armor formula reworked; now, each point of armor increases the amount of damage you can take linearly. This means:
-Armor is more meaningful at lower levels.
-No more armor cap. Damage reduction keeps increasing, but never quite reaches 100%.
If you're familiar with how armor works in Warcraft III, this is quite similar.
At 600 armor you'll have 80% damage reduction, similar to vanilla.
You will be notified of your actual damage resistance after a change in your armor rating.
To compensate for the increased effectiveness of armor, the player's Light Armor rating is reduced by 20% while NPCs gain up to 30% damage resistance based on how much Heavy Armor they wear.

NPCs may visibly flinch when struck by normal attacks. The following conditions must be met for this to happen:
-They are not blocking.
-They are not releasing a spell.
-They are not swinging a melee weapon. They can be staggered if they are recovering from a swing.
-You have at least half as much stamina as they do.
How severely they flinch is determined by the speed of your weapon and their stamina.

You are given a pair of unarmed 'weapons' that allow unarmed attacks to be strengthened by and level your One-Handed skill. Also, some unarmed perks only work when these 'weapons' are equipped. Since equipping them indicates lethal intent, do not equip them during a brawl unless you actually want to kill your opponent.

Your Light and Heavy Armor skills increase slowly while you are moving around with the appropriate armor equipped. This feature can be toggled in the MCM menu.

If you have mastered both the One-Handed and Two-Handed skills you can craft one-handed variants of certain two-handed weapons, including unique artifacts. Support is included for Dawnguard, Heavy Armory by PrivateEye, Extended Vanilla Weapons by Lrsamways and Weapons of the 3rd Era, MoS edition by masterofshadows.

The one-handed variants will appear in the forging menu if you are carrying the original two-handed item. For non-unique items, you must find an unenchanted copy of that item before it can be converted.

Altered Spells:
-All Wards: Vanilla wards have been overhauled as follows:
-Ward max health now properly scales with skill.
-Wards cost nothing to maintain, but you lose some magicka whenever the ward is damaged.
-Wards also absorb physical attacks now, but doing so puts great strain on the ward and costs extra magicka. Only works for the player.
-Due to this, wards no longer provide bonus armor. Again, this only applies to the player.
-Apart from breaking on impact, wards will also break if you run out of magicka.
-Timed Warding: Raising a ward the instant before impact will cost no magicka and instantly fills up the ward.

-==11.FILE: Combat Remastered - Enchantments.esp==-
========================================================

Optional module, adding new enchantments that boost magic power.

-Also stops enchantments scaling with Fortify Restoration potions.



========================================================
-==12.FILE: Combat Remastered - Blessings.esp==-
========================================================

Optional module, fixes some display issues with enchantments when Combat Remastered - Speechcraft is used plus magnitude scaling.

-Description of Blessing of Talos now accurately states its magnitude.
-Blessings of Arkay, Julianos and Kynareth increase by 5 points for every 10 levels. All max out at 100 magnitude at level 150 and beyond.
-Blessing of Kynareth increases your carry weight as well.



========================================================
-==13.INSTALLATION==-
========================================================

Unzip contents to your Data folder and enable the plugins you wish to use.

Some of the files in the main directory require Dawnguard and/or Dragonborn.

For those without Dawnguard or Dragonborn, use the alternate .esps in the "Vanilla plugin files" folder.

For those with Dawnguard but without Dragonborn, use the alternate .esps in the "Vanilla + Dawnguard plugin files" folder.



========================================================
-==14.KNOWN ISSUES==-
========================================================

Upon loading a save, your armor damage reduction may drop momentarily before rising to its correct level. This is because perks that affect armor rating may take a moment to be applied when reloading.

Bonebreaker and Skullcrusher's bonuses don't use the new armor formula, meaning the extra damage they cause will resemble what they did in vanilla.

You don't actually have to attack with a silver weapon to cause undead to flinch; you just need to hold one. Correcting this may significantly increase script lag and I don't think it's worth it.

Creature perks from "Combat Remastered - Creature Abilities.esp" will not be shared by modded actors even if they share a vanilla race or racial ability. There is no known work around for this until Bethesda allows us to add perks to NPCs via magic effects or at run-time.

When Mystic Fist is active and you do the 3-hit combo power attack your right fist may cast the spell from your left fist and vice versa if you miss with the first hit but connect with the second. This has no long term negative effects, the script just has trouble determining which hand you hit with if they hit out of sequence.

If you take the Unarmored Defense perk and increase your Light Armor skill, you may need to equip/unequip a piece of armor before your unarmored rating is updated.

Elemental Loop technically only requires you to have one spell of the matching element equipped while casting. You do not necessarily have to be casting the matching spell. Fixing would probably introduce too much script lag to be worth it.

Essence Bloom and Protective Flux may sometimes trigger on allied summons. As of this writing I'm still looking for a way to distinguish whether a summon is owned by the player, but I haven't found any method that supports modded summon spells.

Fist weapons won't display the correct damage until you equip them. Even after equipping fist weapons, damage may sometimes not display correctly until you leave and re-enter the inventory menu. However this seems to be a purely cosmetic issue and they do appear to deal the correct damage the moment they are equipped.



========================================================
-==15.COMPATIBILITY==-
========================================================

Main file is incompatible with mods that alter weapon speeds or the weapon, armor or block trees. Also any mods that make use of the Infamy actor value (it's used by Combat Remastered to control armor damage reduction), the Fame actor value (used to control damage output) or the Variable05 actor value (used to control attack stamina).

Archery file is incompatible with other changes to the Archery perk tree.

Magic file is incompatible with changes to the spellcasting perk trees or vanilla spells.

Inventing file is incompatible with other changes to the Lockpicking perk tree.

Sneak file is incompatible with other changes to the Sneak perk tree.

Speechcraft file is incompatible with other changes to the Speechcraft perk tree. The blessing-related perks may not function properly with mods that alter blessings.

Creature Ability file is incompatible with other changes to creature racial abilities and actor records.

Enchantments file is incompatible with other changes to enchantment effects and enchanted rings.

Blessings file is incompatible with other changes to blessings.



========================================================
-==16.TO-DO LIST==-
========================================================

Balance tweaks and any required bugfixes, any extra perks/features as I think of them.



========================================================
-==17.RECOMMENDED INI TWEAKS==-
========================================================

To make arrows and bolts aim closer to your crosshair:
1. Open your Documents\My Games\Skyrim\Skyrim.INI file.
2. Look for the [Combat] section.
3. Under the [Combat] section, add the following lines or overwrite them if they already exist:

f1PArrowTiltUpAngle=0.7
f3PArrowTiltUpAngle=0.7
f1PBoltTiltUpAngle=0.7
f3PBoltTiltUpAngle=0.7

4. Save and done.
