Dismemberment

[KimD]

I figured this belongs in adult section, as the requested content is fairly harsh;

I have been wondering if it possible to make all limbs removable, not just the head. Something similar to the Fallout's body damage system.. Although I suppose it would require new killcams as well, as decaps seem to be bound to them.

When reading the title, I actually thought it could also mean hacking a man's "member" off in the game.

Which would also be kinda funny.

Yeah I was hoping for Fallout style gore since Skyrim was announced. I like my swords to, you know, cut stuff.

[kissofthehell]

well we can cut off heads lol

[Monsto Brukes]

well we can cut heads of lol

 

wth is a Lol? I didn't know they had heads.

 

And is it really so bad that you'd only want to cut the HEADS of Lol?

 

Just sayin.

[thehurtbear]

its possible to do in skyrim i think theres a mod like this for oblivion to

[cloudwild]

kissofthehell he was just messing with ya and JenSeven youre very evil cutting of peoples wewe thats disturbing thou i my self think skyrim would be cool with dismemberment like a leg or a hand. and i dont know but stabing a person with a sword through the chest and no hole or blood gushing out is kinda lame need more gore. but well this isint mortal kombat so dont think there will be much on this subject exept mabe some blood mods like morebloodandgore_75_percent-9229-1-1 found in skyrim nexus.

It's possible, yes.

 

But not really practical. Mostly because of the immense difference between Skyrim bodies, and the bodies of previous TES and Fallout games. Those bodies had more individual parts than Skyrim bodies. The Skyrim body consists of 4-5 meshed parts, depending on the race:

 

head

torso

hands

feet

tail (for beast races)

 

So you can't really sever an arm or leg, because they are actual physical parts of the body mesh. And I don't think Skyrim's coding could make use of a separate, individual arm or leg mesh. Mostly because the animations for the torso, arms, and legs are all handled together.

 

For instance:

 

when the left arm swings forward, the torso pitches slightly left, and the right leg swings forward simultaneously in a fluid animation sequence, all while the right arm and left leg are performing a different set of actions. Remove say, the right leg, and you now need a "new" separate animation to simulate hopping on one leg to move about.

 

And the problem lies in that "new" animation. Currently, only Bethesda can reliably and stably add new animations to the game without replacing something else. Anything else will likely be buggy as hell.

I had an idea for this just equip a piece of amour in shape of half severed arm and the Armour can be non playable to pc and have one for all races and make one for left and right start with bandits Armour to modifies it since easy to beta test that one
