About this mod
This mod changes the sheath positions of a few weapon types, and makes shields visible while sheathed. Tested and working with the BG3 Mod Manager.
- Requirements
- Permissions and credits
I found some of the weapon types in BG3 to look more fitting on the hip rather than on the back, so I created this mod to position the weapon types where I think they fit best. I've also given shields an upper back sheath location since it makes sense for them to be there and the equip animations already line up with that location.
The list below describes which weapons have changed sheath positions.
Sickle - Hip
Warpick - Hip
Club - Hip
Mace - Hip
Morningstar - Hip
Light Hammer - Hip
Flail - Hip
Rapier - Hip
Scimitar - Hip
Longsword - Hip
Shield - Back
Installation:
The simplest way to install this mod is through the BG3 Mod Manager, which the mod has already been tested in. Just import the .pak file inside of the mod folder into the mod manager, and activate the mod. Load order should not matter unless you are using another mod that changes sheathing.
Bugs:
I'm still learning how to mod animations and I currently don't know how to match equip animations with the moved sheath positions, so if that bothers you then you can just disable the mod for now. If you know how to change equip animations let me know and I will attempt to add that to the mod.
