Hold -insert key here- to Run

One of my favorite things in Diablo and Diablo II was the ability to walk, and take the game at a slower pace. Walking animations are already in game, and you see NPCs walking about, so I was wondering (and I think I’ve may have brought this up before but cant recall) if it would be possible to mod in a keybinding/option to hold shift to run. (or walk depending on whether you have it on always run or always walk.)

I just always liked taking my time to get there and not running into hordes of mobs before I knew it haha. So anyone think this is possible? Or would it involve too much base-game, or engine even, fiddling?

Not possible with the given toolset.

You only can make a toggled buff to decrease / increase walk speed.

Aw that’s a shame. I kept remembering the old TQ camera mod and thought maaaybe. That used custom keybindings didn’t it? Ah well, maybe I can get this tossed into the suggestion sub then XD

Unfortunately there’s no code that makes the walk animation slot accessible to the player character in the first place. If this were possible, I’m sure people would also love to use the current run animation as “walk” and the actual run set to a…sprint animation. :wink:
