📋 About This Mod
✅ Safe to edit, install, uninstall or update mid-game.
What it does
The weapon models from Sharpen Other Swords II are the same as the ones from Skyrim Special Edition and the Creation Club, but since they had to be remade as animobject models, they can't be easily replaced by weapon remodel mods like Believable Weapons. So, for the sake of consistency, I learned how to convert models to animobjects and now this patch exists.
This mod is for the original/replacer version of Believable Weapons only.
🔹 All Believable Weapons remodels for greatswords and swords as animobjects.
🔹 Optional Iron Sword animobject for vanilla.
🔹 The Believable Weapons remodels for aMidianBorn Book of Silence Skyforge Weapons.
🔹 The Believable Weapons remodels for Frankly HD Dawnguard Weapons.
🔹 The Believable Weapons remodels for Frankly HD Imperial Weapons.
The weapons above don't exist in vanilla. Because of that, they're not included in Sharpen Other Swords II, so I'm going to release them as separate mods in a collection of patches.
🔹 Believable Weapons isn't a requirement, but you really should consider using at least some of jg1's remodels.
🔹 There's no daggers in Believable Weapons, so Sharpen Other Swords II daggers aren't replaced by this mod.
