📋 About This Mod
Requires original mod. Replace original plugin with my modification.
Animated Armoury is amazing, but whips are not. At least not in Skyrim. Hard to animate, sometimes glitch out. Since there is no MCM or anything to get rid of it, i just removed them entirely from the plugin.
I have played some time with it and no issues, but if something pops up call me.
Probably not safe to install mid game if you use regular Animated Armoury.
About Open World Loot Addon:
-
[]requires Open World Loot, obviously.
[
]made with "Clean Edition" in mind, there might be errors with No Whips and No Claws version, definitely not compatible with No Whips Edition.[]NPCs only use polearms, won't spawn with quarterstaves, katanas, and rapiers. They still can appear as loot.
[]Katanas are the rarest, Khajiit caravans have high odds of selling one.
[]Patches Open World Loot changes and integrates new weapon types with them.
[]Adds new leveled lists for easy integration of new weapons.
[]Open World Loot patches often revert leveled lists to default OWL state. Keep this patch as low as possible.
[]Not compatible with OWL patches for mods that contain Animated Armoury weapons, you need to handle leveled lists yourself here, just add these weapons to new OWL_Weapon_Material_Type leveled lists. If you like things to be plug and play it's probably not for you.
