Description
What is this?

This mod addresses some of the recent bugs / changes regarding combat, that were introduced in AoW - Chapter 3
Update: Most of these things have been fixed / addressed in some way by Funcom so this mod is no longer necessary. I disabled the fixes, but left the small UI for adjusting the rotation rates as a legacy feature as that still works. However Funcom tweaked the originals so I recommend trying them at a rate of 100% first.

The mod does 3 things:

  • Fixes NPCs "moonwalking" or walking sideways, unable to rotate after they attacked. - Fixed by Funcom as well in the mid-January patch

  • Restores the players ability to attack in the direction their camera is looking with Controller Syle movement: Off (or Auto when using KB&M) - Fixed by Funcom in AoW Chapter 4, new setting under gameplay: https://imgur.com/a/I0hsG6G

  • Provides a solution for the AI "target locking" players, by including a small admin UI where admins can fine-tune the amount of rotation NPCs or players can have mid-swing. - Tweaked by Funcom in AoW Chapter 4 so enemies are slower at focusing the player, the settings in the mod are still available thou in case someone wishes to further tweak these
    (setting this to 0% makes all their attacks linear like in AoS so you can easily side-step and avoid them.

To open the UI make sure you are logged in as admin (Make me Admin button in server settings) and then open the console with ~ or the insert key and type dc combatfix and hit enter

Depending on which of these things Funcom fixes in their upcoming hotfixes, some or more of the redundant features might be disabled, ofc if the mod becomes completely redundant, it will be removed / hidden.

(This mod does a single overwrite of the new attack rotation notify, however should be compatible with most mods)

It does work, but as you can see in the description, those features have been disabled since Funcom fixed supposedly them. The mod only adjusts mid-attack rotation now based on the custom setting you choose.

Does it work in 2025? Because the NPCs are still doing the fking moonwalk and shit..?

ok, thanks for the responses, i find the auto face on attack rather subpar, its very slow and i have to finish my animation and then just wait a bit more :D

Nah, the player rotation still works too, but that slider only ever affected mid-swing rotation.

So once you ALREADY started a weapon swing, it allows for very quick correction up to a certain angle (all of this assuming you don't have target lock on). Increasing the player slider will allow for a larger angle of rotation if you quick-correct.

But the window is a couple of hundred milliseconds at best

I'm not sure what you're trying to do btw.. if you just want your character to rotate in the direction of your mouse, there is now a gameplay option in the vanilla game that you can turn on, which is why it's disabled in this.

i wish to rotate myself better but am seemingly unable :D

i've read it multiple times :P aah, so the player rotation does nothing no more? :(

Helps if you read the description :) Funcom fixed most of those issues, so the mod has most of its features disabled.
The only thing left is the rotation control of characters mid-attack. For that one if you wish to be able to side-step attacks easily like in the past, then lower the NPC slider. That's all

To add: i also tried with both, auto face on attack on and off

Sadly, does not seem to do much :( i dont even know if i should have 200 or 0% because i dont feel any difference between them :( Tried Controller style movement off and auto, with rotatable stationary camera on.

i will tell you Xevyr, there is no way in the game settings to restore the old feel back to the combat..you are a GODSENT! i will try this mod if the combat feels better again, its so clunky and bad with the Funcom changes that literally make 0 sense and no1 asked for...thank you!
