Magicka or Armor

View File

---

DESCRIPTION

 

Magicka or Armor (MOA) is intended to provide an immersive reason to wear less armor or to prefer Bikini Armor.

 

With MOA installed wearing armor will interfere with a Mage's ability to connect to the flows from Aetherius and reduce their available Magicka. The heavier and more protective the armor the greater the proportion of Magicka lost.

 

Fortunately Bikini Armor has a much smaller effect on Magicka flows because  it covers less of the Mage's body. As a result adventurers who favour Spell & Sword may find Bikini Armor is their best option.

 

BIKINI ARMOR & KEYWORDS

 

MOA relies on Bikini Armor having keywords that identify it as such. MOA recognises the Sexlab Aroused SLA_ArmorHalfNakedBikini and the Sexlab Survival SLS_Bikini keywords out of the box. It's also possible to add any other keywords you want to be treated as Bikini Armor using MOA's config.json file

 

CUSTOMISING MAGICKA LOSS

 

The proportion of Armor Rating that Magicka is reduced by, and the reduction in Magicka lost for Bikini Amor items are defined in MOA's config.json file and may be adjusted as desired.

 

REQUIREMENTS

PowerofThree's Papyrus Extender SE, PapyrusUtil SE, JContainers SE & SkyUI SE or LE Equivalents
 

 

COMPATIBILITY

 

MOA should be fully compatible. 

 

Spoiler

MOA uses a Peak Value Modifier effect to reduce the Player's Magicka by a proportion of the base Amor rating of their Light and Heavy Armor. It has no effect on enchantments, perks or other additional sources of Magicka. Mods that change the Players Base Magicka will affect the amount of Magicka lost but the proportion of the base value will remain the same.

Reserved for Future Use ?

well, i'll be damned. i'm such a D&D nerd i assumed vanilla skyrim had penalties for magic use while wearing armor.

edit: not to mention this is awesome for 'immersion' purposes - i was tired of using the 'survivorship bias' as an argument. lol

What would happen if you had a keyword from both SLA and SLS? Would they intefere with each other?

No they won't. Armor with more than one Bikini keyword will be treated just the same as Armor with a single Bikini keyword.

This looks great! Thanks for sharing

[Neyri LL]

Nice addition to any setup, bikinified or not!!

Iirc, the only vanilla penalty is that you receive less armor from alteration spells 

[Cumpleanos]

This amsingly enough does have some basis in the franchise. In Oblivion (I can't remember if Morrowind does it, I rarely play pure mage in Morrowind) your magic did get nerfed a little by wearing armour, as a reason for mages to bother wearing robes instead.

[El_Duderino]

Yeah! Another masterpiece from Bane Master!

 

Thanks so much, I love how your mods spice up gameplay -- and that not just in a kinky sense. ?

Thanks for the feedback - I'm glad you are enjoying it.

 

This one is obviously more niche than I thought, though - only 282 downloads ?

Haha, yeah. I'm more and more convinced that the majority of players are probably mainly after eye candy, but not to have their kinky setup causing actual consequences on gameplay. Which is of course their prerogative and totally fine -- "no kink shaming" goes hand in hand with "no lack-of-kink shaming"

 

All the more reason to appreciate modders who invent of all these clever ways to impact the game in such exciting and devious ways, even if it might only cater to a niche group of players.

 

Cheers!

Can you post a script log please - also what version of Skyrim are you using?

[Anunya]

I've downloaded this mod as it is relevant to my interests.

 

... now I just have to finish tinkering with my modlist to see how it works out

Would be interested to hear how it goes - in particular what changes (if any) you make to the magnitude of the Magicka loss

Sure thing - when (if) I get a stable load order and a game going I'll report back

Hello, @Bane Master Thank you for such an elegant mod and for all your work.

I have a quick question.
How "bikini_factor" is applied mathematically/logically?
Is it:
1) ArmorRating * "magicka_block_factor" * "bikini_factor", if keyword detected
Or is it:
2) ArmorRating * "bikini_factor" and Ignore "magicka_block_factor", if keyword detected

In other words: Do factors stack or replace each other?

Mathematically it's  BaseAVMagicka * ( ( ( ArmorRating * BikiniFactor ) * MagickaBlockFactor  ) / 100 )

 

BikiniFactor is 1.0 for non-Bikini Armor

 

The value is calculated/applied  on a per item basis.

Hi, thanks for your work. I wanted to ask, is this mod safe to eslify?

Should be - it's actually a pretty simple Script based mod so I don't think it has anything that would prevent it

Which slots does this check for keywords on? all of them?
I am adding some Advanced Nudity Detection keywords to my MOA Json, although it would be best to have MOA check AND directly in future

In source file point_to_loss = BaseAVMagicka * ( ( ( ArmorRating * BikiniFactor ) * MagickaBlockFactor  ) / 100 )
where ( ArmorRating * BikiniFactor ) is sum of all wearing armors.

MOA monitors Equip/Unequip events so effectively all slots are checked
