IdeallyAddicted Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 So I've scoured the interwebs trying to find a fix for this, and all I have managed to uncover is "change your play style, stop QQing." But there has to have been just ONE single modder out there who is left handed, and wanted to roll with a weapon/spell in the character's left hand, and a shield in the right. Or even go single weapon in left hand, right mouse button to block.This is my first post here, so I hope I get lucky. Thanks for anything helpful. For now, I will change my play style and quit QQing..... o_O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PsYchotic666Joker Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 (edited) Hello and welcome!I have never seen a mod like this for these games but i would like the idea of it as i myself am left handed but the weird thing is i cannot use my left hand on my mouse...it's just too weird and hard to try it, i was raised with my right hand on the mouse and left hand on keyboard lol, some of my left handed friends think it is weird and they can't seem to do it but i can... Hell my naga mouse would make it impossible for me to use with my left hand. xD But yea..i would like to try a mod out where i use my left hand as weapon and right as shield.. :) Edited November 20, 2012 by PsYchotic666Joker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stabbykitteh Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 Another lefty chiming in. I think there being no mod (that I know of) would have to do with animation limitations and someone basically having to mirror all of the combat animations in the game. Lots of work for a small audience. Left handed combat would be nice to see though, it was something Bethesda mentioned early on - or so I thought.

IdeallyAddicted Posted November 20, 2012 Author Share Posted November 20, 2012 (edited) the weird thing is i cannot use my left hand on my mouse...it's just too weird and hard to try it, i was raised with my right hand on the mouse and left hand on keyboard lol I am the exact same way, with pen and paper I draw with my left hand. In MS Paint, if I use the mouse in my left hand, it looks like a four year old was using it...lol So how difficult is it to create a mod? I have zero experience I'm sure, but I have a lot of time that needs 'wasting'. Edited November 20, 2012 by IdeallyAddicted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dudeman325 Posted November 20, 2012 Share Posted November 20, 2012 This one seems a lot more difficult than most mods. Although I'm hardly an expert, it seems to me that a mod like this would require messing around with the games actual code, as opposed to a CK mod.

Oddvice Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 I am left-handed and would love to see a mod for the weapon in left, and shield in right. I use a xbox-360 controller and would love to see this mod out if it is at all possible. Just to be clear-that would be upon the screen a weapon in the left corresponding to the left trigger on the controller and the shield as right trigger. If anyone has this mod just lemme know please. Peace! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManleySteele Posted November 26, 2012 Share Posted November 26, 2012 I don't know that I think the animations would be very much of a problem other than there being a lot of them. Just rerecord each as a mirror of the old ones. The infrascruture for left habded strikes already exist in the dual wielding prtion of the code. The problem I see is connecting right handeed blocks to the physics engine. The problem is finding each instance of a block, in game, amd having a unique instance of blocking stats just for the player character. Having said all that, I don't have any experience with Havoc and the underpinnings for right hand blocking may be sitting there, waiting for a smart modder to exploit. Worth doing? Almost certainly. The controllers can be easily remapped. I would keep the left mouse button for hittting and the right mouse for blocking. The same with the xbox controller for PC. No big deal.

h0rsel0ver Posted November 29, 2012 Share Posted November 29, 2012 I'm not left handed, but I've wanted to use 2 shields for a while now, and any mod that lets you do that would let you equip a shield in the right hand. Haven't seen a mod for it yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
