LE1 Streamlined Weapon Loadouts

WARNING

If upgrading from 3. 4, I recommend restoring your game and remodding from scratch to ensure all previous edits to startup files are erased. When loading a save where SWL was previously installed, open the inventory screen and close it twice. The placeholder items are now dynamic so they should be removed whenever you close the inventory screen.

NOTE

Those suffering from the duplicate item glitch should remove "Unknown items" from their inventory via save editor before updating.

Ever annoyed that you can't unequip weapons in LE1? Why would your Adept be carting around an assault rifle, sniper rifle, and shotgun they never use? And why does every squadmate have every weapon? They regularly shoot walls just with the ones they're proficient in. Well now you can chuck all those useless weapons in the bin. Additionally, I went through and re-added weapons to certain cutscenes so squadmates that don't have certain weapons equipped will not hold invisible weapons in cutscenes.

This mod removes weapons that are unused by characters, restricting each character down to the following loadouts:

Soldier Shepard:

Assault Rifle

Sniper Rifle

Adept Shepard:

Engineer Shepard:

Sentinel Shepard:

Infiltrator Shepard:

Sniper Rifle

Vanguard Shepard:

Kaidan:

Jenkins:

Assault Rifle

Sniper Rifle

Ashley:

Assault Rifle

Sniper Rifle

Garrus:

Assault Rifle

Sniper Rifle

Wrex:

Assault Rifle

Tali:

Liara:

Squadmates are unable to equip weapons they are not proficient in. Shepard will start the game without a weapon in each slot that they are not proficient in and will be able to equip other weapons in this slot in case you want to equip more weapons or took a weapon proficiency bonus talent.

How Does It Work?

Blood, sweat, tears, and a lot of messy code. The 2. 0 update adds 4 weapons labeled "Unequipped" that have no stats to the player's inventory at the start of the game. The
