This video came at the right time, as I am currently updating my combat system for 2025. Though, I wish to find an easy to follow tutorial for stances. Please feel free to leave a link. I'm sure I'm not the only one searching for one.

Great video! May I know the names of back flip dodge mod at 2:25 and this other dodge mod at 2:35?

[@nexalight599]

No point in using MCO when BFCO is a thing now, you can mass-convert MCO animations using the MCO to BFCO converter

[@ShadoV90]

Exactly this is what i'm doing :D No conflicts, and no mess when you have both.

[@TerryHughes64]

So use mco over bfco? I love bfco just needs more animations for combat but the sprint jump and swim are unbeatable

[@jamalecar4790]

Iirc, BFCO was just made compatible with MCO annotations. So you can use MCO animations as long as you rename the file from "mco_(whatever)" to "bfco_(whatever)". Edit : Sorry, I had it backward.

[@TerryHughes64]

@jamalecar4790 okay I'll try the converter. Will it be as smooth as bfco? I see some patches for mco attack speed

[@jamalecar4790]

@@TerryHughes64 I think you misunderstood. You can use BFCO with abr/skysa/mco animations. I'm unaware of a converter. You could probably find a program to allows you to batch rename files and do it that way.

[@WhisperingNavajo]

They're compatible

[@TerryHughes64]

@WhisperingNavajo I think I need the converter or the default bfco folder animations play in OAR

I got it working in SSE environment, so I'm not sure about AE's behavior;; I should have explained this, but I didn't in the video;; This part is my fault. I did mark it as sse-only in the description first, but I hope you guys refer to it :D

[@ron8162]

The enemies in my game barely flinch or react strongly to being hit with arrows and close range combat.

[@ARJARIM]

Why did you ask this question here? I'm not a modder;

[@ron8162]

@@ARJARIM you made a combat overhaul video, I assumed you had the name of the mod that makes enemies react to being hit. Since it's not listed in he video

[@ARJARIM]

Are you talking about stagger? Stagger is an important element in combat. I actually debated whether or not to mention it in a video. My modlist is based on the stagger motion of the Elden rim mod, and the stagger in Elden rim is operated through modernstaggerlock. I personally think that the Elden rim mod is pretty good, but as the title of the mod suggests, it is quite Fromsoft-centric. Since there are many opinions in the comments of this video, and since it is impossible to rule out negative opinions from viewers about Souls-centric mods, I decided not to mention Elden rim in a video. However, since you asked about it, I answered it.

[@ARJARIM]

@@ron8162 Even outside of Eldenrim, there are several mods that involve staggering. There are stagger mods like Poise or Chocolate Poise.

rly nice collection. is there a way to disable that dodgeattackstuff in mco? makes characters t-pose/ being stuck in animation alot after dodging. cant get around that issue :/

That sounds behavior related and something isn't going right when you run Nemesis or Pandora.

@@jamalecar4790 Wish i knew exactly where the problem is. Tried to fix this like...forever. Now im at the point to accept this bug. Screws up combat pretty often. Also using the step dodge variant coming with dodge mco as there is no real alternative :/

@@hayate2333 I suppose it's possible you have conflicting behavior mods. I was using project impact from ADRI at one time and started getting into other combat mods like maxsu stagger overhaul and elden rim and came to realize the bugs I had were from incompatible mods like those.

are there any mods that adds a little of this modern combat to enemies? those slow and predictable guys are not deserve all of this

[@ARJARIM]

I carefully and cautiously select mods that change the enemy's combat to be more modern or alter the enemy's AI. Especially since AI-related mods often report conflicts, I aim to introduce mods that have been thoroughly tested for stability. In addition to the two AI mods introduced today, if there are other mods that can help viewers, or if I find a mod that can make enemies fight faster, I will introduce them in the video. :D Thank you very much for always watching. 😊

[@Foodisgood]

Is having to use 50+ mods just for combat worth it? Lets say we use about 15 mods from the video description links. Most of the mods have other requirements so you are minimum looking to use 40+ mods to do that just for combat. Not quite sure it is worth it. I don't like use hundreds upon hundreds of mods. Leads to a lot of stability issues.

[@ARJARIM]

Please don't ask me this kind of question. Because if you thought installing combat mods wasn't worth it like you think, why would I make this video?? I made this video because I thought installing combat mods was worth it, and this video is for people who value things like that. This video is not for people with the same values ​​as you. You should just watch Skyrim Comedian videos on other channels.

[@frog6054]

It's worth it because vanilla skyrim combat is so bad that I'm willing to learn how to actually mod skyrim. You can make everything stable even with 1000+ mods if you know what you're doing. There are lots of modding tutorials out there to help you ....

[@leftylou4693]

Great video for suggestions, but how we go about installing, what should go first, what should overwrite what? That is the problem with Skyrim modding. A lot of mods to choose? checked! A lot of content creators showing mods? checked! Videos or info how to install them and what order and such what should overwrite any manual edits that have to be done? barely any! And if available mostly it's old info with old mods. Quality over quantity.

[@ARJARIM]

You wrote that it was a good video, but when you say that quality is more important than quantity, it feels like you are disparaging the original video. You are saying that it is not enough to serve me food, but that I should feed you the food myself. I have provided links to each mod in the description, and you can check the installation method on the mod guide page. There is a big difference between what you think and making a video yourself;

[@mackarn5067]

DMCO is the best dodging mod, if not for one detail.... when double dodging, your character has a high ganse of catching bpg animations and getting stuck. Too bad it's the only dodge mod for the latest version of AE that just works out of the box. I would sacrifice my firstborn for this mod to be fixed by its developer. Because DMCO's vanilla animations look even better than TK Dodge with the addon from Smooth

[@brackett666]

I love this mod as well, but I’m on 1.5.97 and wish there was more animations available. I tried the Sway dodge animation that makes you do a slip like dodge and it doesn’t work.

[@ARJARIM]

Well, if it's like what you wrote, my Skyrim would have been 'getting stuck' and I couldn't even record videos, but I've been using it for a year now without any bugs and haven't experienced any issues, including ctd.

[@Shallweplay-t2d]

The best dodge mod out of the box is the Ultimate Dodge mod. Does not require any settings at all. and Works great with all versions.
