That way you can look through and see if these changes are something you want to use. I'm not opposed to making compatibility files, they will just take time to do. This also means any mods modifying all the base armor and weapons may not be friendly with this mod, or this mod the other. So Light armor will probably become medium, medium to heavy. This does mean that any and all mods that add in armor will be a little screwy if they use the same magic Bethesda number generator to determine weights. All data on it will be below the main games data. Really, though it's to help keep a somewhat balance of weight to item ratio. I did add an optional file with strength multipliers for a more realistic feel to the game. Morrowind has a very weird weight system to determine what is what. Heavy armor is still heavy armor, medium is medium, light is light. Is it wrong to be strong? I think not! You have to be strong to carry Daedric, but it will now not be just to show off since a single weapon will now not take up a fifth of your maximum capacity.Īrmor follows the same trend, I did keep all the weight classes. Ebony and Dwemer weapons getting heavier with Daedric being the heaviest. Iron and steel getting a little heavier and being more inline what actual weapons are. Chitin being the lightest, a bug exoskeleton I would assume would be fairly light even in a larger scale.

To be more realistic to a point, I'm sure I mixed up and messed up somewhere. I went through and looked at each and every armor and weapon and changed their weights. You might be thinking, 9 pounds isn't that heavy I could swing it with no problem! Well yes, 9 pounds isn't much except when you have to swing more than a few times. Claymore's, you know the big swords, are heavy at 9 pounds. Most swords are under 6 pounds, and 6 pounds is a heavy sword. Have you ever tried on armor? What about held or swung a real sword? I don't believe anyone at Bethesda had when this game was made.
