📋 About This Mod

This mod aims to fix all scabbard clipping in the game, particularly around Relic and Witcher weapons.

UPDATED FOR NEXT GEN

Introduction:

Are you one of those people who demand a bug-free experience in their games? Are you one of those people who demand their swords and scabbards to fit each other like Cinderella's foot and her slipper? Are you a spoiled, little gamer who just wants their cake and to eat it, too? If your answer is "yes" to any of these questions, then welcome to the mod to make your dreams come true.

Summary:

This mod aims to completely eradicate all nasty sword/scabbard clipping you've been forced to live through these past 7 years. The mod currently only fixes clipping on all Relic swords and Witcher swords. Master and Magic Weapons have not been touched since they typically go unused. But if there are any issues there and the demand is high, then a fix may be provided for them as well in the future.

The fix is in fact quite simple. With the help of the wonderful TheFreddman, co-author of this mod, and author of Lore-friendly Silver Swords 2. 0, scabbard meshes for the 4 Witcher School scabbards (Cat, Bear, Griffin, Wolf), as well as scabbards for Glory of the North, Tlareg, and Aerondight have been remodeled and tweaked to fix all clipping issues with those swords. To keep things simple, instead of having to redo the meshes of every scabbard in the game, I thought it would be easier to simply use those scabbards that had already been fixed in LfSS 2. 0 and apply them to ALL clipping swords. This means that some swords will now be using scabbards from the 4 Witcher schools, so you might see some redundancy. But I figured this would be a far easier solution and easily overlooked by players considering that they're now getting a sword and scabbard that actually fit each other.

Installation:

Extract the .zip folder, then drag and drop the mod into your "mods" folder into your Witcher 3 Directory.

Compatibilities:

1) Giving Priority

  • []This mod modifies the scabbard meshes of the 4 Witcher schools, Glory of the North, Tlareg, and Aerondight. That means if you have any mods that use or retexture any of those meshes, you will face conflicts and be unable to get the benefits of this mod. In this case, give this mod higher priority.

    []This mod is FULLY compatible with BiA - Ultimate Edition. Just give this mod higher priority over BiA. No merging required.
