Is there a way to not use any of the deadly reflexes mod and just use the sneak portion offer by the mod? like throat slitting and sleep kill, deadly reflexes is quite buggy but I love the sneak animations since I play a stealth character.
Or even better an esp that directly replaces the original esp? I don't see the point of using one and then adding this just for a small edit that could have been made directly on the original esp of the mod? I doubt Skycapt' would have something to complain.
i know I am likely to get into trouble for this, but I perceive this to be covered by freedom of speech.
the violence incorporated, not only in your mod, but in mods like deadly reflex in general, is pushing boundaries. ever further, slitting a throat is among the last things we might still perceive people to have a natural barrier against, but we are desensitizing our selves more and more, which is visible in the wave of torture porn that swept across cinema screens the last couple years.
I am not saying there was no violence in the past, of course there was, but it was left to imagination, which produces horror in most people, whereas the blatant depiction of violence in pictures is for entertainment. Our initial disgust at seeing such a thing mixes with the voyeurism of consuming extreme psychological situations, for some people ever more extreme to get a kick out of it. In a game, there is the additional element of feeling of absolute power, which, in it's asocial primitive form consists of wielding absolute control over the world and especially our fellow citizens.
Why am I saying all this? These mods don't make killers, I assume, that hypothesis is much to simple, but just like the all-presence of sex in our media, the factual acceptance of violence in entertainment and its constant consummation doesn't necessarily make this world a better place. Films don't need pointless, unwarranted violence to be good or entertaining. Neither do games need to become ever more graphic and realistic in their depictions of violence, deprivation and suffering for entertainment. A good round of pedestrian squashing a la carmageddon was absolutely fine, great fun and relief, despite lack of detail. You have every right to make and publish this mod, people of a certain age have every right to play this mod, but on the long run, we are influenced by what we consume, not everything that we can do is something that is good for us. Just a pathetic, paternalistic thought.
Dude, if you have problems with violence, you don't play with fighting games, it's not that difficult. Besides, the funny thing is that just after Oblivion, in Skyrim, that kind of moves were implemented on the vanilla game. How about that eh?
bet i'm the only one that had this problem but when i try to slit someones throat what happens is they just duck down, than a guard comes over and arrests me.
sexy mod dude you have my most respect i dont get why people cry about it i mean its a video game...just get this violence is every where you cant end it its always gonna be there...

enjoy yourselves, peace
Actually never knew others where having trouble until this mod released.
Glad there's a solution for those that have the issue.
