Permissions and credits
Allows you to use different 1H weapon as dual wield.


Simply installing it from nexus mod manager does not make it work immediately, Read more below!


PS: We Intend to personally use this with my friends, I thought I could save the time of other frustrated players so I uploaded it here. As the original and sole author, I have all right to upload it here, feel free to share and modify it to your own liking :)

This is not entirely a bug fix but rather a work around so that Dual Wielding for Different 1H weapon can be used! SkyUI for SSE should have been better but due to the lack of it, I made this fix.

Bug in Skyrim:
If you have been playing dual wielding, you must have found out that you could not use two different weapon in favorites after coming from magic spells. You must have encountered that magic spells are always wielded on the left causing you to un-wield the left-hand weapon. This becomes problematic when you switch to dual weapon. Imagine, when you were in the middle if an amazing fight kill and then one-hitting the enemy from Dual Power, just to find out you were dead cause your character was only wielding 1 weapon! Yhea, I know the pain, so I created this app to mediate the problem.

About this Fix:
This is an Autohotkey app I created so you wont really expect a esp files or so, I am also attaching the code I have written for you to freely modify or compile your own.

Requirement (Pls read before complaining that it is not working):

For the dual wielding to work, you must do the following:
1. Set your favorite left hand weapon to #8 (you should have two weapons of the same type)
2. Set your favorite right hand weapon to #7 (Just one will do)
3. Set #1 favorite to empty
4. Run the autohotkey from the file you downloaded
5. You can now switch to your dual wielding anytime by pressing 1.

How this works:

1. The code automatically launches keypress 8 twice so as to reset whatever skill had displaced your left hand weapon.
2. Once the left-hand weapon has been reset, the code launches keypress 7 to assign your right hand weapon.
3. This are done automatically by pressing keypress 1.

NOTES:

This fix unfortunately consumes an extra 2 favorite keys. So if you use keys 7 and 8 for other spells much like I do, you would unfortunately give that up, else, might not be for you.

This is for dual wielding, so If you have 1H and shield, I have no idea if it could work for you.

If In case you have different weapon favorite preferences, just check out the source and modify it to your liking, its just less than 15 lines of codes!
