@moderator - Please delete/move this thread as appropriate. @ocelot - This started with the intention of modding my own game but using YAAM as a base, then I decided that I should record these thousands of test shot results somewhere. I had no reason to expect YAAM to modify crit mechanics in...

You're right; I made a mistake earlier, sorry :sad: another thing: in haen's spreadsheet, explosive DTs for power armors don't match the current ones on the wiki(or in my RP 2.3.3). Relevance being that AP rocket's DT mod should probably be 24 to achieve the effect that haen intended(i.e. with...

I haven't tested it yet, but isn't JHP best for those "aimed shots to the eyes"(or head)? As in you're either likely or certain(depending on better criticals perks) to get a bypass armor effect, and then doesn't the JHP multiplier kick in(since you don't need armor bypassing as much)?

I'll always assume that the displayed hit percentage is correct*, hehe. - Regarding the original intention of finding the bonus crit chance for a body part, if we assume that the developers will stick to a multiple-of-five percentage, then I think it's probably what I have guessed(it also fits...

I remember using the formulas on the wikia to calculate stuff too. In reply to (1): I think Perkus is correct, but the meaning is obvious anyway, and anybody that is doing what we did will know to correct it themselves. In reply to (2): It is working correctly for my in-game testing, but I...

Hehe; years back when actually playing, I got the same feeling as you(even up till now, I remember "two-in-a-row misses at 95% accuracy, then a hit, then another miss" as a pattern, and I haven't played fallout 2 in eons). One thing is that to my knowledge(and to my expectation), asking a...

Insta-kill is getting a 101 roll on your crit effect on the head or eyes, from the same page that I tried to link(wiki's critical effect table); and from that same page it says the only way is via the Better Criticals perk. I'm lazy to test atm, but you can always test it out for yourself ^_^

I know, and sorry for the messy format, which is why I was hoping someone would come along and obsolete my post.

(Edit on 9/18/15: NovaRain gave me a link to http://www.mediafire.com/download/da...2calc_docs.rar , which contains a "partially reverse-engineered Fallout 2 combat algorithm", and should render this post obsolete. I still cannot reconcile some results from my testing though, and if the YAAM mod...
