Sneaking with mouse and key

[H A M]

ok so i used to play skyrim on console but i've recently moved to pc - does anyone know a good way to sneak on skyrim using the mouse and key - i find that i move too quick using them and i get detected a lot

[Trigger]

use a controller ?

[H A M]

ok i should have rephrased that - how can i do it without a controller

It might be that I do not completely understand the question.

Mouse only changes the direction you are looking at. Doing multiply softer pushes with WASD-keys makes you to sneak really slow, when keepiung W pushed down makes you to sneak faster.

Toggle walking/running. Running get's you detected faster.

That is a good advice. If you are still uncustomed to use WASD-keys lightly in Skyrim, then toggle affects to sneaking as well.

toggle to walk till you gain a few levels - a good way to raise sneak early is to creep around in the catacombs -= up to sleeping dragr and hit them hard with something heavy - early on it'll raise your sneak really fast. fining bandits and waking them up with an arrow near them and stay still till you hidden again works as well. I usually put 1 skill point in sneak even in characters that I'm not going to be doing much sneaking in.. It can be a very useful skill

yeah i think i just wasn't used to it - how do i toggle walking?

Default key is Caps Lock.
If you have changed it, or want to change it, click ESC and select Controls from the menu.

Crouch also lets you sneak.... You can find a good position near foes, crouch out of sight, leave your computer for a coupole of hours and when you get back your sneakiness has increasinessed.
