Just Drop It - Immersive (Un)Equip now on xBox!!! Thanks to Snipey360 for porting the mod to xBox on Bethesda.net, go check it out!!!
Game mechanic that Drops your Weapon when Equipping a new one In Combat.
As of now it is in BETA. Install at your own risk!!!
This Mod is based on the "Realistic Unequip" that Equipping Overhaul had. The scripts where made from scratch and it takes a diferent aproach at managing and triggering the conditions for the Unequip to happen.
Mechanic (Full version):
When equipping a weapon a script will do a serie of checks:
1. If the player has their weapons drawn AND the inventory menu is NOT open, the old weapons will drop to the ground.
2. If the player equips a two handed weapon, and had two weapons equipped, both will drop.
3. If Weapons are sheathed, they will NOT drop when changing equipment.
MCM Options V0.2:
1. Activate/Deactivate Mod (Default OFF) you have to activate this option to start using the mod!!!.
2. Weapons ONLY Drops In Combat, when active, weapons will drop ONLY if the player is in combat (to simulate that outside combat (s)he will take his/her time to equip the new weapon, no reason to just drop the old one) (Default On)
3. Weapon Drops In Menu, when active, it will not matter if you are in the inventory menu, weapons will drop (can be used with option 1 to activate combat ONLY drops, inside and outside the menu or on it's own, so weapons will drop inside and outside the menu IF WEAPONS ARE DRAWN) (Default Off)
Mechanic (Simplified Version)
1. Weapons will drop ONLY if the player is in combat (NO OPTION TO DEACTIVATE)
2. If the player has their weapons drawn AND the inventory menu is NOT open.
2. If the player equips a two handed weapon, and had two weapons equipped, both will drop.
3. If Weapons are sheathed, they will NOT drop when changing equipment.
NO DROPS WHEN IN MENU, only option to activate/deactivate and debug mode.
Technical:
The full version uses a quest to manage everything. This aproach is userfull when only the player will be affected, and no other character can be affected by any means, as this quest will reference and run only on the player actor. The downside is that the script has to check if the player is in combat every time he/she swaps weapons (it is not a script intensive activity, If the player is not in combat the script will do nothing else) Every check is done by the script using global variables that can be changed in the options on the MCM menu.
The Simplified Version runs on a magic effect apllied to the player when "start mod" is selected on the MCM menu. This version runs only when the player is in combat, and the check is done by the game enguine and not by the script (wich is a LITTLE to NONE more script intensive that the full version). While the option for NPCs to drop weapons when swapping is not implemented on the mod, it could be easy done using Spell Perk Item Distributor, by giving all NPCs my spell (This is not recommended, as enemy AI is stupid and will not be aware that if it swaps weapons it will lose it, nevertheless CAN be implemented)
This version only has a debug option and a Start/Stop Mod option in MCM menu (that in this case will add or remove the spell from the player as necesary).
As of now this mod is in BETA. There are many bugs in vanilla Skyrim where
the weapon can glich through the ground and be lost forever, so install
at your own risk (this is not a bug with the mod, but on how the
vanilla system works when dropping a weapon, same thing can happen when
disarmed by enemies or just dropping things from the inventory with and
WITHOUT this mod)
This is my first full mod. Until now I only made patches for other mods for my own personal use, and one patch for
the mod ScrolScribe that can be found here on nexus, so again this mod
is in BETA stage until further testing. Anyone interested in testing is welcome.
This mod should be compatible with any kind of weapon mod, but any incomatibilites let me know and I will try to adress it.
This mod does not change any record on the vanilla game, so it should be
compatible with anything. Load order does not matter. ESPfe (does not
count for plugin limit) and ESP (If anyone wants to merge it with other
mods) will be uploaded. ESPfe was not tested, as I myself had merged it
with other gameplay mods.
Big thanks to:

This mod would not have been possible without their help.

All donations are going to be used to buy an xBox and/or xBox related accessories, so I can finally test my own mods and give better support for them, check for incompatibilities and testing the patches I make.
