About this mod

Increases weapon speeds across the board. Also increases the speed of weapon talents. This quickens combat (and makes it much more realistic, in my opinion). There are four different versions. Try each of them out to see which one suits your preference the best. Tested with versions 1.02a and later.

====================================================================
====================Faster Weapons v1.11==================
====================================================================

Increases weapon speeds across the board. Also increases the speed
of weapon talents. This quickens combat (and makes it much more
realistic, in my opinion). There are five different versions. Try
each of them out to see which one suits your preference the best.

Tested with versions 1.02a and later (may work with earlier
versions, but I haven't gotten the chance to try them).

=============================
Changelog
=============================

==09.21.2010==

- Increased compatibility with other mods, most notably with
Combat Tweaks.

==09.07.2010==

- Added a "balanced" mode: a hand-tweaked version that I feel
gives the most realistic speed in combat. Fights are fast and
fierce, but not too fast.

Note that even though 2h melee weapons, for instance, are
40% faster and 1h melee are 30% faster, this doesn't mean
that a greatsword is faster than a longsword. I've just
increased them by a percentage based on their original
animations.

=============================
Known Issues
