📋 About This Mod
Dual Weapon Abilities for Arcane Warriors v3. 1 ---------------------------------------------- by: rebel5555 (aka Joshua R.) This works for both DAO and Awakening (Unable to add new Dual Weapon Abilities until an update for the toolset is released that enables editing of Awakening Scripts). I decided to make this mod because requested to able use the Dual Weapon abilities for the Arcane Warrior sub class. I also include the source code in case someone was interested in seeing how I implemented this. Change Log: ----------- v3. 1 Updated the readme to show that this mod is compatible with my other mods v3. 0 Made Compatible with Combat Tweaks v32 ONLY (Can\'t update to the latest version until Dennis Lee updates the source files) v2. 0 Implemented and Made Fully Compatable with the \"Personal Annoyance Remover Mod by Rekicker\" v1. 0 Initial Release Installation Instrustions: -------------------------- !!IMPORTANT!! First Delete any previos version of this mod. !!IMPORTANT!! ========================================================================= How to Install Duel Weapon Vanilla Version with Personal Annoyance Remover -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Copy the folder ALWizard_DualWeapon to My Documents\\Bioware\\DragonAge\\packages\\core\\override How to Install Dual Weapon Abilities for Arcane Warriors in Combat Tweaks v32 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In the folder \"Optional\" you will find a folder entitled \"Combat Tweaks v32\". To use my mod in Combat Tweaks v32 Copy all the files located in the folder \"Combat Tweaks v32\" to My Documents\\Bioware\\DragonAge\\packages\\core\\override\\denl_combattweaks You might be able to use this with the newer version of the mod, but you will be missing out on any bug fixes in the game scripts. Installing New Awakening Dual Weapon Abilities Instructions: ------------------------------------------------------- I have included in the folder \"Optional\" a folder called \"Extra 4 Abilities SEE README\" In this folder I have changed the New Dual Weapon Abilities to only work for Arcane Warriors. Which means that any character who isn\'t an Arcane Warrior can not use those abilities. This could possibly break the game thats why it\'s an optional file. you do not have to use it if you don\'t want to. This is a temporary fix until Bioware releases an update for the toolkit that will have all the Awakening Scripts. To Install the optional files just copy \"abi_base_DualWeap_gxa.gda\" and \"alwizard_default_DualWeap_gxa.gda\" to the folder ALWizard_DualWeapon Compatibility: -------------- This mod is compatible with my other Arcane Warrior mods. This mod will NOT work with any mod that modifies the following scripts or GDA Files: rules_core.ncs c2da_constants_h.nsc talent_aoe_instant.ncs talent_modal.ncs talent_singletarget.ncs spell_d
