Can an experienced modder please tell me if this changes critical hits to the player?

[FalloutKillian]

Hello!

Trying to change what critical hits does to the player character and not sure I have done it correctly. Please check my changes and let me know if I need to alter something. What I have tried to do is have the player suffer double damage for all critical hits and no other effects (no knock out, no bypass armor etc). I have activated changed critical hits in the ddraw file to number 3 (patches and new critical hits, I think this is the correct option for the ddraw file)

Here is my file:

;This is the new critical hit table override format
;It's faster loading than the old one, and is compatible with the extra kill types option
;Note that the player's critter number is now 38 rather than 19
;Enable overriding the critical hit tables
;For details on the tables and their values, see:
; http://falloutmods.wikia.com/wiki/Critical_hit_tables
[c_38] ; The entries for the 'men' critter type
Enabled=2 ; Tell sfall that we want to modify this table
Part_0=1 ; Tell sfall that we want to modify the head entries
; If we had set 'Enabled=2' then sfall will assume you want to modify all
; parts, and will not check the Part_X entries

I have been testing it. 200 wasnt right. Changed it to 2.now it seems like criticals dont apply any effects to the player atleast. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

[Mr.Stalin]

What I have tried to do is have the player suffer double damage
DamageMultiplier=200

Do you seem to get x100 damage instead of x2

 

[Mr.Stalin]

Changed it to 2.now it seems like criticals dont apply any effects to the player atleast.

Damage multiplier
This is divided by 2, so a value of 3 does 1.5x damage, and 8 does 4x damage.

 

[FalloutKillian]

Thank you for that info!

Other than that is everything correct? Should i use enable 3 in the ddraw file like i wrote at the start of my post?

Have i covered everything and no made a mess of anything?

Whoever made the ddraw (sfall?) and the modders pack...a huge thank you for all that stuff!

Just saw i had missed 6-8 ( just had 0-5 for parts)

 

[FalloutKillian]

Can someone give me the whole table as it looks on vanilla for the player character? Thinking about allowing all criticals but making them defended by stats. For example a luck roll against bypassing armor (so a 10 luck character wont have his armor bypassed), a 10 endurance character cant be knocked out etc.

e4_DamageMultiplier=4

e5_DamageMultiplier=4

Will this make the head test against endurance and avoid all effects with a 10 endurance (Always pass). Can I just add these incomplete tables like i can with perks? (Like lifegiver i can just put Level=6 and nothing else and it overrides just the level requirement. So above I have made it so a crit against the player does 1x damage - 2x damage depending on critical roll and all effects are avoided if a succesful endurance test is passed?

 

[FalloutKillian]

Pretty sure the above wont work for the first effect of the criticals as it has no test so i made changes and now i think it will work

If i understand it now the first effect (that has no test vs a stat in the game is now 0 and dont happens). The second effect tests against endurance and will always be succesful with 10 endurance. Can anyone who knows modding confirm this?
