Main file
The main mod does the following:
- Shortswords and Rapiers are now sheathed on the hips.
- Animations use same animations as daggers, so no awkward back sheathing animations.
Gameplay wise it adds the following:
- Adds thrown property to shortswords. This allows them to function essentially like daggers.
Optional Files
Handcrossbow on hips:
Places hand crossbows on hips instead of on back where they clip into back. The animations mismatch when sheathing weapon(see in video showcase).
Scimitars on hips:
Places scimitars on hips instead of back, uses the dagger piercing animations instead of slashing(see in video showcase).
Maces on hips:
Places maces on hips instead of back, uses original animations which causes animation mismatch(see in video showcase).
Longswords on hips:
Places longswords on hips instead of back, uses original animations which causes animation mismatch(see in video showcase).
Recommended mods
I recommend the following mods to complement this one:
Aether's useful Daggers
This buffs daggers from a d4 to a d6.
Transmog Enhanced
This let's you transmog any item into another, now you can finally use sword and dagger but have them look and animate the same.
Note from author:
I've never made a mod in this game, it just really bothered me to see Wyll with 1 rapier sheathed on his back, it bothered me even more when my Tav had 1 dagger on hip and 1 sword on back. Hence I tried to fix this for my own playthrough.
I've playtested this on my own playthrough and it all seems to work fine.
