thiafy: this was the first mod I ever did, and it was an update to an existing mod to fix a few bugs. I don't use it myself any more, and at one point I posted a comment that said I now consider this a playing control aid rather than a game mechanics fix. Mods like RF use game mechanics to punish you with chance of tripping when you run backwards, and this mod makes your controls easier by toggling to walk mode for you when going backwards to avoid that risk.
I love most all your other mods, but with this one I was sort of wondering... Why don't you just make there be an extremely high chance of tripping when running backwards? It would discourage overuse of the feature in the same way the real life does. Unless you've thought of that and it's not possible...?
I'll probably try this anyways. Just popping in with my 2 cents.
"well i'm not gonna install this mod because its not realistic in real life if i wanted to run bacwards i would just run and nothing would prewent me from that i think vanilla is ok, yea i know its sometimes stupid to run backwards from a fight but it is still better than to be forced to run backwards"
You also can do things like stumble backwards, or not see something and lose your footing. You also aren't carrying 500 pounds of armor and running at full sprint. You can't run at full speed going backwards as you can going forward, either. Enjoy your utterly simplistic game and running backwards for 90% of your Oblivion play time, I guess.

For what this mod intends to do, it does it very well. If you don't like the idea of not being able to run backwards (last poster) it's probably not a good idea to install this. To everyone else, this is a good mod that will add to your game.
This does not prevent you from running backwards when using a gamepad, it does work with the keyboard though. Is there a version compatible with a gamepad anywhere?

Edit: Problem solved. I hard to change the mod load order. There was a conflict with unofficial oblivion patch, so load this mod after the patch.
Since, there isn't anything stopping me from just smashing D non-stop for maximum speed.
