All spells go through staff

[dretcher2]

I'm not sure if anyone has made this before, but I searched for it myself and didn't find it, and I asked in mod detectives and got no answer.

 

What I am looking for is a mod that makes it so any spell you perform goes through the staff you are holding, instead of you using your other hand to perform it.

 

Example: You are holding your mage's staff of fire, and perform an ice spell. You channel your power through the staff, and the spell goes through the staff instead of your other hand. However, since the staff isn't made for doing that charge, it doesn't spend any enchantment charge on the staff. Instead, it uses the PC's mana.

 

 

 

This would make things feel more like being a traditional staff-wielding mage.

 

Also, you could even add a battlestaff that has no enchantment on it, but is made to hit people with, and has a spike on the end or something. However, even though it doesn't have a spell, you could perform spells channeling your energy through it.

 

The possibilities are endless :biggrin:

 

If anyone can make this, that would be awesome. You can have all the credit.

 

Also, if I and the mod detectives happened to miss this in my/our search, if you could post a link to the mod, that would be awesome. If that is the case, i apologize for the thread, but I looked hard and couldn't find it, and never got an actual response in the mod detective thread.

 

 

:thanks:

I actually thought about doing this before, but I have other stuff I'm working on and this wouldn't be a priority for me. But this was my plan (just in case somebody wanted to try it):

 

If player has a staff out and a target spell equipped, disable the cast key.

- If player presses cast, play the staff attack animation.

-- place two invisible activators in front of the player along the firing trajectory; one right in front of the player, and one farther away.

-- the closer activator shoots the spell at the farther activator.

 

And then blam, you'd have the illusion that the player was casting through the staff. Of course you'd need some tweaking, but I'm pretty convinced that this idea would work, but I admit I'm not scripting genius and I don't know if this would be the best way to go about making this kind of mod. If that activator thing seems too complicated, this mod I made has a working example of it.

thanks for the answers. Unfortunately I'm useless at CS and don't have the time atm to learn how and do things myself. Maybe next summer. But for now, that means I'm stuck in File Requests.

 

I was surprised when I didn't find it on any when i tried searching for it, I thought this would be something that SOMEONE would think of making. If you do find it on that mod list, that would be awesome :biggrin:
