GroggyGorilla Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 (edited) I would like to know if there is any way to make a mod which would allow you to wear the steel sword on the hip instead of on the back. If I had any knowledge regarding how to use the redkit and mod TW3 I would try to figure it out myself, so I would greatly appreciate it if anyone with the required knowledge would be interested in making an attempt at a mod that does this. And if they could figure out a way to put both the swords on the hip without horrible clipping issues (preferably both on the left side, but one on each side would work too) that would be even more awesome.

Nenlaw Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 you would need to change animations as well. As Far as i know this is not possible with the tools we are given atm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GroggyGorilla Posted October 17, 2015 Author Share Posted October 17, 2015 Ahhh, I see. And there is no way to borrow these animations from other characters? (Since every other character except for Geralt draws their sword from the hip.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nenlaw Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 hmm doubt that somehow, probably would be connected to alot of issues that could not be solved (cutscenes where Geralt draws his sword for example might even break the game at some point) probably crashes and so on.I doubt it will ever happen, but the modding community of w3 surprised me more then once.But ill stick to the swords on the back, its just too badass ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
55TIGER55 Posted August 28, 2016 Share Posted August 28, 2016 In Witcher 2 is animation for sword on hip ,,Henselt Sword", so when people import anim fight from W2, so they can import this animation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EelKat Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 (edited) in the Geralt Doppler mod, one of the options is to wear a sword on your hip. See image below, of my Twitch stream gameplay, playing as Avallac'h and wearing extra clothing items, including a sword on his hip: http://www.eelkat.com/images/avallach-geralt-doppler-moroccan-wizard-mask-hip-sword-geels-panthers.jpg http://www.eelkat.com/images/avallach-geralt-doppler-moroccan-wizard-mask-hip-sword.jpg The first picture you can see the whole thing from a distance in sandbox play, and the 2nd one you can see top of it in cutscene. (Geralt Doppler is how the mask, head scarf, and hip sword are on Avallac'h here; his staff on his back comes from the npc weapon mod and Ge'els and the panthers are traveling with him via the Spawn Companions mod... in total I'm running 78 mods on this playthrough) There is at least 4 other mods, that have hip swords as well, but all of them are game overhaul mods (reshade light, mass change textures of eyes/skins/etc, add shadows, fix glitches, etc) and none of them has just the hip sword available separately. I do not know how the creators of these mods made them. I know the Geralt Doppler one, simply takes sword files off crowd npcs and attaches the file to the torso file of your player character, but how they went about attaching it, I don't know. The Geralt Doppler version, the sword is just a "prop" and can not be used, so you still have the ones on your back. There is one mod, I forget the name, but it is very new, came out around May 2018, that turns the swords into guitairs, AND moves them to the hip. Thus Geralt can now fight with a guitar instead of a sword. I do not know how the made that mod, but the guitar on the hip, replaces the swords and has animations. Perhaps you should try downloading the guitar mod and "dissecting" it to see how it is made and if you can do whatever they did to move swords to hip So, it can be done, because it has been done, just don't know how they did it. If you are able to do it though... I'd really, love it if you could make it so any sword could be at the hip. I'd love my (Avallac'h's) Ofieri steel saber at the hip. :smile: When playing Avallac'h, his character should have the sword on his right hip (as he is left handed) and his staff on his back. So I'm looking for a mod that only moves the steel sword to the (left) hip but leaves the silver sword on the back (because Avallac'h's staff replaces Geralt's silver sword) Edited July 23, 2018 by EelKat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
