   I've been attempting to create mods that allow for players to hold weapons in different styles, all of which were scrapped before release because of various reasons with the game's engine and capabilities. My final solution to this idea can be solved by having an .Lua deal with changing a weapons fighting style/hand positioning/weapon type.
   
   1.The .Lua would have a trigger, maybe a key binding, that opens a message box showing the different fighting styles/hand positions/weapon types available for the weapon in reference. *This method would allow for easy of use and to quickly switch styles in heated situations
   2.The .Lua would create an exact copy of the chosen weapon, changing the weapon type to the player's chosen weapon type and adjusting the durability of the new weapon to the durability of the weapon it was created from. The script would then equip the weapon to the player, if the player had it equipped, or it would be placed back into the inventory.
   3.The script should not allow players to change dagger weapons into spear weapons. One method for restricting weapon types would be to have the script reference the available weapon types based off of the default weapon type of the item.
   4.Large weapons would need to have their attacking power and speed reduced if they are held with one hand. One-Handed weapons would increase in power if they're held with two hands.
   
   I do not write in C++ or anything outside of the TES Construction Set Language. I merely hope to see this idea come to life and get released into the Nexus.
