UPDATE 2. 1 - added compatibility to Swords on the Hip and Swords On Hip When Cloaked
vq8rpUO0ZRc
OVERVIEW
This mod dynamically changes the equipped scabbards of any type of sword to scabbards of the witcher set you are wearing.
There are two settings to choose from in the mod menu:
1. by default the swap only occurs if you wear all four pieces of the armor (chestplate, pants, gloves and boots)
2. optionally you can enable "Only chestplate armor piece required" in the mod settings, which will result into needing only a chestplate armor piece for the swap condition to trigger.
Every witcher set is supported, including the Kaer Morhen armor.
Because not all swords fit the witcher scabbards, I had to blacklist (exclude) some of them - their default scabbard will be used instead. It is possible that I missed some, so if you encounter any swords that do clip through, please let me know in the comments / bug section and I will add them to the list.
