SkyParkour is an addon for sokco816 's amazing SkyClimb mod. SkyParkour allows continuous climbing and vaulting over obstacles (like Assassin's Creed games, as much as Skyrim's collisions allow) with the addition of hold down key feature

Also unties it from camera direction, so you can freely climb in 360 degrees. XINPUT controllers are supported too

Also attempts to fix some of SkyClimb's known issues such as player getting stuck in animation while trying to climb and vaulting into crafting tables while in menus.


Under absolutely no circumstance bother Sokco about issues with this mod.


Compatibility:

  • MCM is under the same name SkyClimb, however options are different.
  • DLL name is same, and it is compatible with 1.6.1130+ by default. Hence Skyclimb 1.6.1170 fix is incompatible.
  • There is a NG plugin for pre 1.6.1130. Install it below main file.
  • I have no GOG or VR versions so can't provide support for them. You're free to try out though.
  • For the time being, gamepad triggers (Playstation L2-R2 Xbox LT-RT) are not supported as key binds.


Install:
  • Install all requirements. Check if they are updated.
  • Install "SkyParkour - A Skyclimb addon" file (main file).
  • Don't forget to get the update file and install below main file if there is an update file. Don't replace the main file. Install below or merge.
  • If your game version is lower than 1.6.1130, get the NG backwards compatibility file as well. Again, don't replace the main file, install below or merge.
  • For troubles with installation, read next one:

Spoiler:  
Show
You do not need a new playthrough.
  • Load your save. Disable Vaulting & Ledges from MCM. Exit pause menu completely. Wait about a second.
  • Make a manual save. Quit out.
  • Disable BOTH SKYCLIMB AND SKYPARKOUR.
  • Boot the game, make a manual save with Sky Climb & Parkour disabled.
  • Re-enable SkyClimb, SkyParkour and its updates.
  • Play.


Rules for Parkour:

You can't climb when:
  • Weapons drawn, sitting, sleeping, jumping, swimming.
  • Low ledge grab will not work when on stairs. Climbing will not work if there is not enough headroom on ledge (your char is too tall to stand on it). Vaulting will not work when there's an object behind the prompt.

Gamepad input will not automatically switch
  • For jump key option quicksave then quickload OR refresh Jump button MCM option. This will detect your jump binding again.
  • For custom keys assign it to your desired gamepad / keyboard button after switching.


Troubleshoot:

  • Read the sticky posts.
  • If there is a crash, post a crash log with a spoiler tag.
  • When opening a report, write your game version.



Disclaimer: This mod isn't a replacement for SkyClimb, it's an addon. Original mod is absolutely required. It's built onto sokco's open sourced code. I've tried to contact sokco about publishing this mod. Haven't received any answer yet. This mod may be subject to be superseded by an official update to skyclimb. If they contact me, I'm willing to share the permissions of the project, which is already open source as well.


And oh, if anyone knows how to make an actor activate a furniture while mid air / in water I can add another animation that allows mid air ledge grabs. I gave up on this after trying to learn hooking into a native function, forcing it to return true, only to not work. It just doesn't work.
