Version 4.27.2

updated and completed normal maps for all fruit juice bottles (newest gimp plugin)

changed status text messages (default F8 key)

Version 4.27.1

removed bug in encumbrance module (calculation of weight, influenced by feather)

two small updates, but important.

The missing normal maps for the fruit juices have been added, and the other textures updated (little bit smaller in size)

Also the status text message seemed too long (F8 key), it is somewhat shorter and more informative now.

The encumbrance module had a bug.

Reason for this, there is no accees, as far as I know, to THE internal encumbrance value.

EGM does calculate this value by counting all inventory items and adding up their weight. And still there is a difference to the encumbered weight value shown in the inventory menue.

I do not know why, so this is a little bit tricky, as EGM needs the exact value, for its effects to kick in, in order to avoid immobility, which is the standard vanilla behavior.

This would be definitely an issue for OBSE, this would help so much, as I am not able to recalculate the values, when encumbrance is internally reduced to a 0 value when feather spells are big enough.

At this point it is not possible to get the valid encumbrance from stuff in inventory, without walking the complete inventory as stated above.

Maybe someone knows more here, help is welcome.

Though it works now, just that this value is only updated properly when no feather spell is active.

As it seems this doesnt matter, unless for instance, unplayable items with weight are going to be added to the character.

In fact, I dunno if anyone does this at all, as unplayable items, like tokens, are always set to zero weight.

And I have to point out a really good mod, complementing EGM. Its http://www.nexusmods.com/oblivion/mods/21721/? by kuertee.

You just have to download the mod and its update, no need to configure, and you are able to drop most items within a backpack by simpl pressing 'G'. just in case you need it.

Suits perfectly with EGM's encumbrance mechanics. Please endorse his mod. :tops:

Have fun!
