Faster Walking OR Jog Instead! v1.1


About This File

If, like me, you are getting annoyed with the plodding, slow walk of your character then this mod should sort it.

 

It now comes in 3 versions....

 

1. Faster Walking Speed

 

This applies a 30% speed increase to their walking speed without adjusting their running or sprint speed. This increase is about as fast as they can go before it looks too weird. It also adds a 30% speed boost to sneaking which helps make your character feel a little more nimble and athletic, while not making you too fast.

 

2. Jog Instead of Walk

 

This version applies a 250% speed boost to walking. This may sound a lot, but it is actually just enough to make your character move from a plodding walk to a pleasing jog speed. All other speeds (including sneaking) have been kept as close to vanilla as possible (although there are some rounding up issues on the calculations, but nothing that should be noticable). This version works well as the progression from jog to run is about right for a human, it is just the sprint which is a bit high - might fix that in another version :) (ah...see below!).

 

3. Jog Instead of Walk (Realistic Sprint)

 

This version does exactly the same as the basic Jog Instead of Walk above but also lowers the sprint speed to a more realistic pace.

 

Installation
1. Use Nexus Mod Manager (or any other mod manager) or simply place the required .esp in your fallout4/data/ folder and then activate it in game.
2. If you're loading a saved game then you will need to activate the speed multiplier through the console as the multiplier value gets baked into your save.
Type Player.SetAV SpeedMult 130 (if using faster walk) or Player.SetAV SpeedMult 250 (if using jog instead of walk).
3. People using survival will need to start a new game as the console is not available in that game mode (there are some mods around that re-enable it though)

 

Uninstalling
Remove the .esp from your load list. You will then need to reset the speedmultiplier as it will be baked into your saved game files. Open the console and type Player.SetAV SpeedMult 100
This will reset your speed multiplier back to normal and once you have saved your game you shouldn't need to adjust it again.

 

Dependencies
None! :)

 

Conflicts
Any other mod that changes movement speed or the speed multiplier.
Might not work well with game pads (but then you probably don't need this mod anyway)

 

Known Bugs
The whole movement type system seems messed up. The walk speed is hard coded :@ - you can only change it by using the speed multiplier so the only way to produce this mod was to find a multiplier that made the desired walk/jog speed and then reduce all other speeds by the same factor :s .

 

In addition, someone seems to have assigned the NPC_Gun_MT movement type to the player when they are using a pistol instead Player_Pistol_MT. This probably means the NPCs are going to move slower with their weapon drawn...have to see how that works out. Hopefully they have been assigned the Player_Pistol_MT in which case it can be fixed. If not, then meh! Not much I can do about it...they'll just be super cautious when their weapons are drawn. :D

 

Trouble Shooting
Q. I installed the mod but my character still walks at the sames speed and now runs/sprints slower!
A. This means the speed multiplier hasn't been applied to your character. This could be because another mod is conflicting or you are using a non-standard character preset. To fix open up the console in game and type Player.SetAV SpeedMult 130 or Player.SetAV SpeedMult 250 depending on which mod version you are using. This will apply the multiplier and you should be all set.

 

Q. My character looks a little weird when walking faster!
A. Unfortunately the walk animation doesn't speed up well. There are some other walking animations for female characters, so try those. If you still don't like it you could try reducing the speed multiplier by a small amount using the console in game till you find a pleasing walk speed. e.g. Player.SetAV SpeedMult 125 - this will also change your run, sprint and sneak speeds so use sparingly.

 

Q. I want a faster or slower jog!
A. You can use the speed multiplier console command to tweak the speed. I wouldn't recommend going up or down by more than 10. e.g. Player.SetAV SpeedMult 240 - this will also change your run, sprint and sneak speeds so use sparingly.


What's New in Version v1.1

Released

  • V1.1
  • - Fixed a bug where you would move far too fast when using a pistol.
  • - It only seemed to effect pistol weapons.
  • - Unfortunately it seems that not only does Fallout 4 use hard coded walk speeds, they also messed up which movement controllers they are using and have used the NPC Weapon Movement for Player Pistol Movement (and possibly vice versa).
  • - Hopefully I've fixed it, but there is the possibility that NPC movement is now slower with weapons. :/
  • V1.0
  • Initial release
