Magical Unsheathing of Weapons (NEXT GEN)

Updated version of "Magical (un)sheathing of weapons (Invisible Weapons)" mod for Next Gen 4. 04.

All credit goes to menschfeind13 as the original author of classic 1. 32 version.

If the author updates the mod, I will gladly put down the mod.

Description

(original author's mod description)

This mod makes your weapons invisible when they are holstered, and visible upon unsheathing them with a visual effect.

In order to make the mod work you should buy a new item from an ofieri merchant and just keep it in your inventory.

Alternatively you can use a console command: ghost_of_the_sun which will give you the new item.

If you want to disable the mod functions, just put that item in your stash or drop somewhere, then reequip your weapons in an inventory menu.

There are settings you can change to adjust the mod for yourself:

• []Visual Effect - enables/disables new visual effect.

  []Optional Animation - enables/disables an additional short animation upon unsheathing sword.

  []Without Animation  - enables/disables standard vanilla sheathing and drawing sword's animations.

  []Left Hand Effect - enables/disables the visual effect on the left hand.

  Important notes and issues:

  • []It's better to play when all the settings are ON, however, if you want just a main function of hiding and showing weapons upon sheathing and drawing, you can set all options to OFF.

    []Crossbow related animations weren't changed, they are quite plain already and the changes wouldn't be noticable anyway.

  • Doesn't work in cutscenes (?).

    Reminder: Next Gen 4. 04 compatible!
