Hardcore Mode Controlled by MCM

[wardminator]

I don't know if anyone else will find this useful or not, but I made this little gem because there were too many times that I had turned hardcore mode off in the game menu in order to run some tests on a mod, only to find that the game had disabled hardcore mode all together when I went to go turn hardcore back on. With this installed, it doesn't matter what the game wants, only what the MCM setting is. Even if you were to select "No" when prompted, asking if you want to enable hardcore mode or not, this will enable hardcore mode and keep it enabled. Just place a check in the box in the MCM sub-menu and hardcore mode will turn on. Uncheck the box and hardcore mode will turn off. It's as simple as that.

 

Requires NVSE and that's it.

Nice! This should be quite useful. I don't know why, but sometimes, my "enable/disable hardcore" function in the game menu is greyed out, meaning if I'm testing something and I'm about to die... well, I die.

 

Good to have something like this.

Thanks. I wanted some way to try out hardcore mode and be able to back out at will if I change my mind without making another character and this looks like it does just that.

would it be possible to make this mod have the ability to change values of hardcore mode, like enabling or disabling things like sleep or ammo weight?

I assuming that you mean enabling and disabling certain aspects of hardcore mode. That's a novel concept. I'll have to look into that.

Theres already a mod controlling the different aspects of hardcore. Several, actually. Project Nevada, Imp's More Complex Needs, Arwens Realism Tweaks, and several others give you control over the rates of food, sleep, and dehydration. And most of them have the ability to turn the rates all the way down to 0, effectively turning them off.

I realized this a bit ago when I open Imp's timescale adjuster and remembered that you can adjust the primary needs there too.
