📋 About This Mod
I made this mod for myself.
It puts small and medium 1H weapons like - shortswords, daggers, rappiers, sicimitars - on hip.
while "big" 1H weapons like spears, longswords - stays on back (i find it unimmersive to have them on hip).
PS: If you find some 1H weapon that also can be put on hip - write in comments.
INSTALLATION - put Data folder from archive in your BG3 folder.
