📋 About This Mod
This changes the one hand combat animations to the two handed ones except the equip and unequip animations. So the people out there that only use katanas with both hands should find this useful. (NOTE: this applies to every one handed weapon! equipping a shield will have it stick to your left hand and so move it too) No omod, esp because i don\'t know how i should do this. If you know and want to, be my guest default animation files are included if you want to reverse the changes installation described in readme file
This Oblivion animation mod makes one-handed katanas use two-handed animations, adding a more realistic feel. It has 53 endorsements and was last updated in 2008, so it's an old but functional tweak for fans of the weapon type.
