=================================
Following files are all optional!
=================================
These are found inside the Optional Plugins folder. Use only one variance for screen blood and spatters. These can be used independently from the main esp expect smaller wounds and spatters.
===Screen Blood===
This will change the screen blood. The main file removal time is 5 seconds. Those need to be loaded after the Main file.
==================
-dD-Less Screen Blood Time.esp:
Reduces the time it takes for the blood to be removed from screen.
-dD-Huge Screen Blood Instant Remove.esp:
Blood will fill the whole screen but will be removed within 0.8 seconds. Acts somewhat like a hit indicator. Recommend "Screen Blood for Full Screen" textures to be used with this.
-dD-No Screen Blood.esp:
Disables blood on screen.
-dD-Screen Blood Vanilla Default:
Reverts screen settings back to vanilla default. You should use Alt screen texture blur textures.
==MORE GORE===
Those plugins are not compatible with other mods that change the hit percentage or damage on certain limbs on characters! If there is a conflict the damage and hit percentage will not match correctly. merging the mods will fix this.
==============
-dD-More Gore.esp:
Increases the size and amount of unsearchable giblets when body parts explode, including robots.
==REDUCED FORCE==
=================
-dD-Reduced Dismember Force.esp:
Reduces the extra amount of force used when body parts explode. Recommended to be used alongside More Gore.esp.
-dD-Reduced Ragdoll Force.esp:
Reduces the extra force of ragdolls when killed.
==SMALLER WOUNDS AND SPATTERS==
Needs to be loaded after main esp.
===============================
-dD-Smaller Wounds:
Reduces the size of wounds to a more realistic level. Claws and bladed weapon wounds are not affected. NEEDS TO BE LOADED AFTER MAIN PLUGIN.
-dD-Smaller Spatters Realistic:
Reduces the size of splatters to a more realistic level.
-dD-Smaller Spatters Vanilla Default:

FAQ
===============
Screen Blood issues with FOOK (Screen takes too long to fade or very large screen splatter)
-First press and hold "o" until a menu pops up.
-go to FOSE Dependent options and features
-then Blood Settings
-select Normal or less
If you have issue with decap splatters not working try disabling anti-aliasing. This is a game engine problem that will apply noise filter on the outer edges of particle effects including muzzle flashes and explosions. This is an issue in FO3 were a patch fixed it but then another one after it broke it again.
-A possible work around is to use your video card's AA instead.
If you notice wounds not appearing it could be that you are using a body mod. It depends if the body mod is made to support wounds properly. Even without this mod, wounds will not appear. This may also happen with the base game bodies and certain cloths.
if you want the decap textures to appear and still have AA, force AA with your ATI card driver and for NVDIA, disable transparency multisampling in the graphics options.
Random flashing white dot on blood.
-This is an ATI video card issue if you have transparency multisampling disabled in your graphics option. Or you set the ini changes too high, default blood will have the same effect.
Random flashing white dot on blood on insects.
-You may have set your INI blood settings too high.
Blood does not appear at range.
-There don't seems to be anyway to change this.
