About this mod

Adds ability to toggle between walking and running when using a controller.

There was a time when I decided to play Skyrim with a controller rather than mouse and keyboard.  I quickly became frustrated at my inability to hold the left stick at just the correct angle to maintain a walking speed.  For quite a while I went back to mouse and keyboard.  Eventually, I discovered a means of tricking the game into thinking that a full push on the left stick indicated walking rather than running.  This is that solution.

When not pointing at something which can be activated, as well as not in any menus, simply press the activation key for your controller (default A for an Xbox / Logitech controller).  This will toggle your movement speed between walking and running.  When you are encumbered, you cannot toggle to walking speed but you can toggle back to running speed as otherwise you would be unable to move.

If the walking rate is too slow or too fast, it may be adjusted by using the console to set the abim_CWRT_Walk global variable to the desired speed. Valid ranges are 0.0 to 100.0.  i.e.  "set abim_CWRT_Walk to 50.0" 25.0 is the initial value for this global variable.

This is feature complete.
Requires SKSE in order to function.

Install:
Use your preferred method of installation. Just make sure the files listed above appear in your Data folder as displayed by your mod manager.

Uninstall:
It is never a good idea to uninstall mid-game. If you must, make sure you are in running mode. Then remove the files listed above with your mod manager or manually delete them if necessary.

Hot fixes / Updates:
Under Updates in the files tab please find the hotfix for the abim_CWRT_ToggleScript file. This update will prevent the toggle from being triggered when dismounting a horse. Use your normal method of installing mods and overwrite the original version of the script.  No action needed in-game.

Suggested mods:
Use both Xbox 360 controller AND Keyboard SIMULTANEOUSLY

Known Issues:
  • Sometimes you have an activation prompt without an actual item that the cross hair points at.  In these situations the toggle may be inadvertently activated.
  • Yorgrim's Refuge has a quest with several cut scenes.  The final one does not restore movement speed like it should.  Thus (minor spoiler) when you reach a room with a tied up redguard make sure you toggle into run mode if not already.
