Oh. Well that explains the lack. How frustrating...but there's workaround for that, surely. Would it work if there's no animation, I wonder? Do fancy spell effects count as animations for the one at a time thing? Alternatively, how about a shield that casts spells when it's raised? That should be doable, Spellbreaker already does it. Maybe a shield that casts stuff when you bash? There's shields that do stuff when they bash things. A mod that casts whatever spell you have equipped when you bash. Or maybe when you power bash? Would it be possible to make power bashing cost mana instead?
I don't see why it wouldn't. Sure, there'd be work to be done, but it doesn't seem impossible. For what I'm chiefly frustrated with, the inability to cast behind a shield, you'd have to create what, four animations? Seems doable.
Exactly what it says on the tin. Not asking to be able to sling fireballs and swing swords unindered, but my right hand needs to be able to do something when my shield is raised. Ideally I should be able to cast healing and buffing spells from behind my shield; the inability to do this kinda ruins paladin play in my book. It's infuriating and baffling that some mod for this apperently doesn't exist. It seems like the simpliest thing. Please help.
