DarthNovii Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 I have an idea that may not be original, but since I haven't seen it made I have to ask. I just tried to do this my self and quickly found that there are no true beginner tutorials on making mods. All of them expect you to have some knowledge on the files and programs used. That out of the way here's my idea, I want swords that can be used one or two handed but only fall under the one or two handed perk category. I have a few ideas on how this could be done, but I truly have no idea on how to actually make it happen. My first thought was, "If the same spell can be equipped to one or both hands, why can't my sword?" Basically I want a sword where you can go into your menu, click the left or right button, go out and it will be in one hand leaving the other to be used for something else. Then you can go back in and click the other button and then it's in two hands. Like I said, modding is clearly beyond be. I don't know the limitations of the games engine or code, so I have a backup plan. Option two is to make a crafting recipe for the sword that makes two separate swords. One is a one handed sword, the other a two handed sword. Each one being the same as the other excepting of course for the equipping method. Each one weighs half of what the sword should actually weigh. I'm not sure how enchanting would work but I'm sure someone could figure it out. This would mean that you effectively have two swords that are the same sword and have no bugs. The immersion is only slightly broken with this method. I'd rather have to role play a little and have quite possibly one of the most effective and versatile weapons in existence than be left without it. Not sure what else to say. I don't expect this to get any attention, but if this sounds interesting to you please share it with everyone. Make the "Hand and a Half Sword" a reality please. If you are a modder with some experience and you find that this mod idea is worth your time, that it's within the realm of possibility, and you agree with me that it should be in the game, please message me. Even if it's completely impossible I'd love to know why. My hopes and dreams depend on YOU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fantafaust Posted June 11, 2016 Share Posted June 11, 2016 Have you tried using http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/58973/? It works but sometimes it does some slightly goofy things. Rarely though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthNovii Posted June 12, 2016 Author Share Posted June 12, 2016 Fanta Yes I have tried that and the problems I experienced with it far exceeded any benefit it provided. No offence to it's creator. It was advertised as an in progress project and that's what it is. I love the concept but it simply hasn't come far enough yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
