📋 About This Mod
Changes the sheathed position of 1-handed swords to be on the Hero's back.
Created by the kind, deeply patient, and disturbingly knowledgeable 89pleasure
This affects swords and ONLY swords. No maces, clubs, or axes are affected at all by this mod. Those are all still carried on the hip. This applies to the player and NPCs. Sheathing and drawing animations are all accounted for and work naturally.
Compatability:
Should be compatible with other mods that change weapon values as this mod only changes:
"m_HoldsterLocation": "Waist"
"m_HoldsterLocation": "Back"
This mod stemmed from a desire to have the classic fantasy adventure aesthetics of having a sword on one's back, but not wanting to rush the early game in order to unlock two-handed weapons just for the look. Now you can rock the Shabbard look with those low damage 1h swords right from the jump.

I don't use vortex or mod loaders so I have no idea how it will interact with those.
I didn't write this code so don't ask me to change it. I'm just sharing the lovely work of 89pleasure, with permission.
