Realistic Humanoid Movement Speed
Vanilla playable character walks too slowly, and jog unproportionately fast, and sprints like Usain Bolt across gender.
This mod refines the actor movement speed to a realistic rate. The speeds have been fine-tuned many times before this release.
NO SCRIPT NO WORRY!! REMOVE ANYTIME AT YOUR LEISURE.
This is basically not a mod. THIS IS HOW IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN.
The speeds have been FINE-TUNED MANY TIMES before this current release just to get it right. I use it. I hope you enjoy it, if you can’t find one that satisfies you.

INSTALLATION
Using NMM:
1. Simply load it into NMM.
2. Install.
Manual:
1. Unzip content.
2. Put RealisticHumanoidMovementSpeed.esp into [Game root folder]/Data
3. Open SkyrimLauncher.exe, go to “Data Files”, tick “RealisticHumanoidMovementSpeed”
UNINSTALLATION
Using NMM:
1. Simply uninstall.
Manual:

LOAD ORDER
– Preferably put NEAR THE BOTTOM of your load order.
– But either way, whichever is loaded later overwrites the earlier ones. No problem whatsoever.
COMPATIBILITY
– No matter what, there won’t be, and can’t be any major problem. Mods editing the same variable is simply overwritten by another mod at a later load order (closer to bottom).
1. Fully compatible with SkyRe
– The general speed is modified here, and the addition modifiers to each race and gender are added by SkyRe. No conflict between the two.
– e.g. With this mod on, Altmer female will still walk faster than Bosmer male in SkyRe.
2. Fully compatible with Convenient Horse (Could load this BEFORE Convenient Horse)
– Whichever is loaded later, dictates the modifiers to Horse speed.
3. Fully compatible with FrostFall
– Temporary speed modifiers by FrostFall will be added on top of the modified speed and be removed correctly.
QUEST COMPATIBILITY
1. Helgen execution scene: Tested. Basically no problem.
2. Main quest: One of the quest consists of passing through something (spoiler) that relies on speed. Can be passed through with this mod on.
