About this mod

A big mod list that is made up of the best graphics that Nexus Mod Manager Special Edition has to offer. I also tried to combine the best gameplay mods in order for them to work in unison.
I am still here and back, there is a big chance that I will change the mod list soon and make it better (writing this on 12 September 2020)

It's the best home from my point of view. Just don't use the Aetherium area, any type of companion and it will be ok. Storing stuff here and using the magic it has (void storage and teleportation system) is very demanding in this game.

Spoiler:

This does a lot of the tweaking of numbers (damage, stamina costs, armor) in ways that I liked better than similar features in the Classic Skyrim version of Deadly Combat. I removed them from Deadly Combat so that I can use Wildcat for such changes instead. In the latest version of Wildcat available at the time of writing this (version 6.02 for SSE), there is a configuration power available. I recommend using it to tweak the mod as follows, but you can of course make your own choices as you like:

- No (Default) for "Disable Dynamic Combat"
- All default options for Attacks Cost (stamina costs for attacking removed from SSE version of Deadly Combat)
- Whatever you prefer for "Disable Pulled/Held Bow Stamina Cost"
- No (Default) for "Disable Health Based Regeneration"
- No (Default) for "Disable Slow at 0 Stamina"
- Whatever you prefer for "Disable Swimming Stamina Cost"
- No (Default) for "Activate Full Body Stagger" (although it may not matter a lot what you choose here, since Deadly Combat probably automatically overrides it).
- Yes for "Disable Injuries" (if you really like them it's probably safe to leave them on. I personally prefer turning Injuries off because they feel very "game-y" to me due to effects being chosen at random).
- Yes for "Disable Bow Interrupts" (the staggering features in Deadly Combat should make this specific case obsolete, Deadly Combat implements these kinds of staggers regardless of whether or not an actor is pulling back his bow).
- Yes for "Disable Timed Block" (Deadly Combat has its own Timed Blocking feature. In Deadly Combat, there is only an 0.5 seconds window for blocks to count as Timed Block, instead of a 1 second window. I personally prefer this, but the implementation that makes this possible does come at the cost of slightly increased CPU usage through more scripting).
- No (Default) for "Disable Attacks of Opportunity".
- No (Default) for "Disable Backstabs".
- No (Default) for "Disable Health Based Attack Damage".
- No (Default) for "Disable Penalties vs. Massive Targets".
- No (Default) for "Disable Melee Damage Boost" (The SSE version of Deadly Combat no longer contains any changes to game settings or other changes that affect the amount of damage that is dealt. It only contains the core scripted features that I feel are necessary to make combat look and feel more impactful and fast-paced).
- Keep (Default) for "Disable Configuration Power" (useful in case you change your mind later on for any of the options you've chosen).

To see the proper settings for those two mods please go to Deadly Combat section here and hit spoiler. The settings of these 2 mods that are shown in this video doesn't apply well at the moment and you can get crashes

WARNING when starting a new game wait at least 1 minute in the cave .After that exit the cave, wait another 5 minutes and start to make the settings for your mods. When you have selected all your settings save the game wait a minute and then load that save game.



A little info about myself
Spoiler:  
Show

I decided to do this mod list because there aren't any strong graphics mod list that includes all good gameplay mechanics and animations. The advantages that I have in making a mod list like this is the fact that I learn fast. Also I have to thank my work (marketing research company that organizes/researches information and it's know worldwide) for making me a detail orientated person and last but not least the community here that tells my mistakes in modding.

This mod list is just the first step, and because the new Elder scrolls 6 is going to show up I won't start to make a "all in one big mod" that includes the best mods out here (a big mod that compiles all the files into a .BSA file  and .ESP). Instead I will do this to the mods that will be released for Elder scrolls 6.I think Elder scrolls 6 will show up in aprox. 2021-2023 so until then I will constantly update this mod list.
