LE WoW style spell bar and keybinds

[ahashim]

This request is for a mod that doesn't alter the game mechanics or anything like that, but provides a more usable in-game HUD that allows better use and quicker access to available spells.

 

It would be great if we could have an action-bar similar to how WoW has it and had the ability to bind keys to the spells. Only having the option to bind 1-8 is not even close to enough based on how many spells we can end up with. So, for example I could have the bindings:

 

Shift+1 = Flames

Shift+2 = Fireball

Shift+3 = Fireblast

 

Ctrl+1 = Shock

Ctrl+2 = Lightning Bolt

Ctrl+3 = Chain Lightning

 

Also, having presets for L-hand and R-hand would be nice. For example, I could have the following bound:

 

F1

Left = One-hander

Right = One-hander

 

F2

Left = Heal

Right = Conjure Flame Thingy

 

F3

Left = Ward

Right = Oakflesh

 

etc.

 

I hope this is doable and that someone finds this to be a useful enough request to actually execute it. I would think that it would increase playability on the PC tenfold.

 

Thanks.

I'd really like to see something like this as well, but from what I can say, "you'll" have to wait for creation kit. There is currently "Interface Hard Coded Key Tweaks" by crazy-g, I haven't tried it yet, but you might. Might do you some good.

From what I can tell, all that does is make it so when you rebind the few keys you are able to rebind, all of those key's functions are rebound, rather than only some of them.

Oh that matter, I think “shift + button” should be “equip in left hand“, with the non-shift variant equipping in the right hand. Or use control, doesn't really matter.
