📋 About This Mod
This mod replaces most of the one-handed animations with a slightly stylized set there are two versions to choose from Single-Wield or Dual-Wield, Dual-Wield simulates a weapon being held in each hand, and as such will require a offhand mod in addition you cannot attack and move at the same time with the Dual-wield version save for the step forward in each attack animation. Firstperson animations are not effected nor are the low level power attacks. install into your Driveletter\\Program Files\\Bethesda Softworks\\Oblivion ------ uninstall go to Driveletter\\Program Files\\Bethesda Softworks\\Oblivion\\Data\\Meshes\\Characters\\_Male Delete BlockIdle BlockHit BlockAttack and any file with OneHand in the title OneHandIdle~ SneakOneHandIdle~ OneHandAttackLeft~ etc etc etc. Armor used in screenshots/video Tonas SimpleDress-Armor, WhiteSquall-Armor. http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=29090 Weapon used in main hand/offhand Angeleron, Dual Wield Complete http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=16573 http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=16573 Character used in screenshots/video Moonshadow Elves http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=30707 Usage ----- You may edit or upload this where you like, all I ask is credit for the original animations.
