📋 About This Mod
CHoVR
is a mod that allows you to equip weapons, shields, ammo, powers and spells (or cast) depending on the position in which you have the controllers.
In the configuration menu you can define which kind of item to equip when, for example, the controller is tilted to the left.CHoVR does not add anyting, it is simply a system that allows you equip the things that you already have installed, through gestures, without having to install additional programs.
100% Performance Friendly. 0 Fps loss.
Up to 42 Gestures.
64 Nanoseconds of CPU TIME . SUPER LIGHTWEIGHT
Compatibility:
When you configure CHoVR , you will be able to associate a gesture among the things that your character has learned or have in the inventory.
Which allows you to combine CHoVR with any other mod that adds things to the game. Combine it with Arcanum and it will blow your mind.
How to use it:
In the configuration menu you can choose which item you want to associate with each gesture by hand and which shout or power you will use.
Then you equip the power of CHoVR (Power of Hands). And every time you make a gesture with the controllers and cast the power, depending on the gesture associated with each hand independently, CHoVR will cast or equip the configured item.
