Mixed Grip

by Sinai | My Mods | My GitHub

Mixed Grip allows you to toggle melee weapons between one-handed and two-handed on custom keybind, similar to Dark Souls. This integrates seamlessly with the game's systems - you can toggle weapons to use skills for the alternate grip class (eg. Puncture, swap to 2H, use Pommel Counter), and the mod will also re-equip your previous off-hand item when you swap back to 1H, where possible.

By default there is also some balancing since the game not balanced for this - 1H weapons will be buffed when they become 2H, and vice versa.

• []This mod uses custom keybindings for the mixed grip toggle. Set this keybindings in your in-game keybindings.

  []Bows and Runic Blades not supported.

  []If you want the mod to stop equipping your previous off-hand item, drop it and pick it back up. (or equip a different one)

  []If you press the grip toggle hotkey during an attack animation, it will be "queued" until your animations finish (or if it is cancelled).

  - Swap animations when swapping weapon type: The mod will swap to the alternate weapon animations for weapons, where possible.

  - Adjust weapon grip automatically: The mod will adjust your grip automatically when you equip and unequip items.

  - Balance Weapons: If enabled, the mod will buff weapons that are now 2H, and nerf weapons that are now 1H (since 1H allows off-hand).

  You can manage the settings through BepInEx config. I recommend using BepInEx Configuration Manager to adjust the config in-game.

    Releases:

    - Update for SharedModConfig 1. 5

    3. 0:

    - updated for outward 4/20 update, this is now a bepinex mod.

    - implemented Shared Mod Config

    - fixed balancing for Spears and Polearms when you swap them to 1H

    - fixed all bugs and restored features i had temporarily removed.

    - some minor aspects of the mod have been removed for a cleaner overall experience.

    - ninja edit: fixed balancing, was inverted

    - fixed lots of online issues. I reworked how the sync works and had to override some of the game's item sync for this to work properly, but now mixed grip works basically flawlessly in online play.

    - i've had to disable part of the "automatic swap on equip" logic for online play to fix a bug. The mod will no longer automatically swap a weapon to 1H when you try equip a 2H weapon and already have an off-hand item (or try equip an off-hand while having a 2H weapon).

    - fixed a bug with automatic swap on equip (when you have a 2H weapon, but equip an off-hand item)

    2. 1:

    - fixed a bug with networking during switching scenes

    2. 0:

    - rewrote most of the script for cleaner logic

    - fixed the networking issues (full multiplayer support, no more item duplication)

    - fixed a conflict with OutSouls GUI

    - allowed "queued" hotkey toggles, instead of ignoring the toggle during animations. you still cannot switch combos mid animation, but you can queue the swap now.

    1. 2:

    - fixed items cloning ov
