📋 About This Mod
If you don't like some of the scabbards, or prefer the scabbardless look of your character, with this mod you can easily play without them. You can select which sheaths you want to remove with the included list of weapon IDs. Several of the weapons have already been done by others, but since it isn't much effort, I figured I might as well make one mod that includes all of them. Overall, I found 34 weapons that have a scabbard. There are twice as many files, the L variants are used by other players.
Installation:
with UXM: extract the archive to the root folder (replace original files)
with Mod Engine: extract the archive to your mod folder
A big thanks to the creators of the necessary tools, UXM, Yabber and FLVER Editor.
