WHERE TO BUY?

Here is the address for Consumer Shop of bHaptics: https://www.bhaptics.com/shop


EFFECT CONFIGURATION

This mod uses .tact files which can be designed easily in bHaptics Designer. You can also modify these feedback files that come with the mod. Tact files are in SKSE\Plugins\bHaptics.

Tact files are named by the effect they are assigned to. For example "Bite_1.tact" file is run when a creature bites the player. You can add another feedback file for this effect by making a Bite_2.tact or Bite_Hard.tact file and putting it in SKSE\Plugins\bHaptics directory. As long as the file starts with "Bite_" it will be recognized and when the time comes for the effect to be run, one of the files will be selected randomly.

Tact files that start with "Magic", "Melee", "Ranged", "Shout" etc. are for attacks agains the player.
Tact files that start with "Player" are for attacks from the player. For example, "PlayerShout", "PlayerAttack", "PlayerSpell" etc.

Player arm effects come with both left and right effect files like "PlayerSpellFireLeft_1.tact" and "PlayerSpellFireRight_1.tact".
Some melee effects against player comes with left and right slash like "MeleeAxe_1.tact" and "MeleeAxeLeft_1.tact".

I encourage you to make and share your tact files to help other people enjoy them too.


INI CONFIGURATION

The mod also comes with an ini file.(SKSE\Plugins\tactsuit_vr_plugin.ini).

You can set various settings there, like sleep durations between feedbacks, left handed mode support, logging, ignored spells, and also intensity of all haptics feedbacks. 

By setting the intensity, users won't need to open the feedback designer every time they need to increase/decrease intensity.

There are comments in the ini file to help you.



FUTURE

I encourage you to give me any ideas to expand this mod. Don't hold back. This was the extend of what I could think would be good and possible for SkyrimVR. I'm sure with your feedbacks, we can make it even better.
