One-handed spears.

Post by histamiini »

Would it be hard to have a feature that turned spears to one-handed? So you could finally be this guy?

There's this mod which just swaps the Spear to Long Sword animations: https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/27458/?

But it has trouble with its skills increase script, so I assume it would need feature in the engine level.

Have a look at our design document's section Weapon Types. As you can see, stage-1 OpenMW will provide the means to implement one-handed spears. - Of course, someone needs to create proper animations for those spears, but that's up to modders.

You don't really need new animation because WeaponOneHand thrust animation works fine. So if I read that correctly it's simple as making new weapon type, example SpearOneHand, that uses WeaponOneHand animation and Spear skill, or does it need new skill? Does OpenMW CS allow chancing weapon type animation, because that would make the mod very easy.
