Fallout V.A.T.S. mod for Skyrim is it possible?


Recommended Posts

I would like to see the V.A.T.S. system from fallout inputted into skyrim it would be so awesome i have the idea damage chance to hit everything will depend on lets say your archery skill level or for mages your spell skill level and distance to target and so on.  It would probably most likely be used by destruction mages.  This sounds like an awesome idea if anyone thinks they can make it that would be great.  That plus lets face it sometimes with things running around and dodging everywhere sometimes its hard to hit with an arrow or fireball.  for the camera angle i was thinking either following the arrow/spell or any projectile fired into the target but of course first you have to get a look at your character firing the projectile then focus on the projectile flying through the air to your target and of course you have to include distance, power, armor, running or movement speed of the target.  I do know there are a lot of factors to view to make the mod but we have some really smart modders out there i just hope one of them can pull this mod off i know it will be a great big hit with all Skyrim players everywhere! with the VATS from fallout it either slows or stops time while you are targeting an enemy or multiple enemies and selecting the body part you wish to aim at and so forth so i believe incorporating a mod that does limb damage or perhaps realistic damage would also be beneficial to this mod so if you shoot an enemy in the leg it has a chance to cripple their leg that was hit or if hit in the arm they cant swing weapon as well depending on the arm and the weapon of course and headshots would either kill instantly or make it harder for them to hit their target which would be you and your follower or followers.  But again i just have the idea thought out i cannot mod myself i have never done it before but i am good at ideas that is my forte I just hope someone will reply to this and be up for the challenge of making it or if it already exists then point me to it please.  it dont even have to have limb damage but i do think there are already mods out there that do realistic damage depending on where you hit the person and honestly i dont think it would be to hard to pull the VATS from fallout lets say new vegas or fallout 4 and redo it so it fits with Skyrim atleast i dont imagine it would be your really just redoing what someone else already did which is what modders do at times i think.

vats I think "could" be done but not like in F3/F4 as the skeletons / meshes in F3/F4? are made to be torn apart, skyrim usually only the head is removable.

not really possible in skyrim, the location damage mod is a pretty hardcore hack as it is. the dismemberment system isnt setup nearly well enough in skyrim to do that sort of targeting and clipping.

well its not really about the dismemberment or location damage as much as it is just about the targeting system itself to make the game more enjoyable for mages & archers.

its all one thing though, thats what makes it work in fallout. the nifs have the target-able segments segmented. the weight paints like l thigh l calf etc aren't really enough

well i have found a mod that uses the targeted damage system and i have a friend that thinks he knows of a lock-on mod so just a bit more and someone who can combine them and i think it is really possible to make this mod for skyrim of course i cant mod but im sure theres someone who can do it.
