Book Of Stealth v0.1.4
Added 2022-06-25 00:34:02 +0000 UTCBook Of Stealth - Behaviour Based Sneak Overhaul (v0.1)
Not fully tested, there may be bugs. Report them in the discord server.
Requirements: Nemesis (make sure Book Of Stealth patch is checked)
Features:
Dynamic Sentry System:
Cities, major towns, fortresses, camps and bandit settlements will have assigned sentries. The larger the area the more sentries there are. Each sentry visibly carries a war horn (the style of horn depends on their affiliated faction).
In a fight, sentries will first try to sound the alarm by blowing the horn, unless you manage to interrupt them.
Alarms can and will chain; if one sentry blows a horn and another one hears, the latter sentry will sound their own horn.
Each blown horn attracts attention from the sentry's allies within a large radius, so it's best to take out sentries before they can react if you're playing a sneak focused character. Works with mod-added NPCs and locations as long as they use the same factions and keywords as vanilla.
Animated, Non-intrusive, NPC Usable Tools:
Mask - Face mask that hides your identity, as long as you aren't seen putting it on or off. Bounties accumulated while wearing a mask are kept separate from the player's normal bounty. If the player gets caught , both the mask bounty and normal bounties are combined. Comes with mask equip/unequip anims (by @slimTHEalien ) that are blended to player movement.
Smoke bomb - A thrown item that deploys a cloud of smoke that momentarily staggers their enemies and makes them blind.
Lightweight and behavior-driven.
Uses clean and short scripts and relies on behavior components where possible to prevent lag or high script load.
Coming in the next few updates :
- Full NPC support (making non-player characters utilize their tools effectively)
- MCM
- Simple shadow camouflage and blending in with crowds/nearby NPCs
- Detection tweaks and race detection (nighteye, scent, etc.)
- Better looking bomb throw anim (kinda rough rn)
- Mask support for beast races (rn argonians and khajits have misaligned facemasks)
Credits: slimTHEalien for the crisp mask on/off anim
Thanks: Distar, for teaching behavior
Note: And no, I didn't take the meshes or textures from the mod Face Masks of Skyrim, I only edited the vanilla assets to make the mask mesh, and the FMS author did something similar, that's why they look alike.
Revision Update 7/2/2022(0.1.4):
Fixed bug where mask on/off animation would play randomly on specific idles. Rerun Nemesis.
Revision Update 7/1/2022 (0.1.3):

2022-07-02 20:32:55 +0000 UTCIf Skyrim gets a stealth system similar to AC Unity or other Assassins, I am playing it till the day I die.
2022-07-02 06:30:01 +0000 UTCohh so this is the culprit that makes even the children do some blacksmith stuffs in the middle of the road hahaha

2022-06-25 16:00:05 +0000 UTCOnly requires Nemesis and the base game, doesn't use skse scripts.

2022-06-25 10:42:20 +0000 UTCYou can use it with RAID, this doesn't change the detection settings

2022-06-25 10:37:28 +0000 UTCCan't wait to give it a try, just one question to be sure, it's best to not use BoS along with "Realistic AI detection 2" right ? Since both mess with the detection.
Naotenho nome
2022-06-25 04:29:52 +0000 UTCif its the first this may actually sync with skyrim together!!
