ACCEPTED Greatsword Sheaths and Scabbards Redux (by rpsgc, MadCat221)

[rootsrat]

Do we want to consider the Full-size scabbards?

I was actually thinking about this as well. I like the idea.

[DoubleYou]

Well, I was testing 2.2.9 extended, and Better Shaped weapons makes the greatswords have full-size scabbards, so for continuity, at least for 2.2.9, we should use the full-size scabbards.

Agree. I have the full scabbards installed in my game and they look really good!

Sorry if this is the wrong thread; I'm installing for the first time and trying to follow instructions. The Wiki doesn't give a recommendation on the 4th install option:

 

Skyforge Steal

[ ] Skyforge Steel

[ ] None (default)

 

The Nexus page for the mod says "If you are using CaBaL120's "Book of Silence" copy the 'meshes' subfolder from '04 Skyforge Steel', '04 Skyforge Steel Fullsize' or '04 Skyforge Steel Vanilla' (see above) to your 'SkyrimData' directory."

 

Since STEP uses Book of Silence, I figure I should be checking Skyforge Steel here? If this is recommended I'll add it to the Wiki, if someone else doesn't first.

Actually, choose none. We used to have the Skyforge in, but Better Shaped Weapons is going to cover that in the next update.

[Morsk]

Thanks. I added that None part to the Wiki's page.

Thanks. I added that None part to the Wiki's page.

Awesome, I always like new members that know how to edit a wiki.

Having a somewhat  minor problem with Elven Dagger(and what I presume is this mod). If duelwielding Elven Dagger(or perhaps just having an Elven Dagger in your left hand), instead of an Elven Dagger sheath, a Dwarven Dagger sheath will show instead(the are almost the same, but Elven Dagger have a curve, whereas Dwarven Daggers are symetrical).

I suppose this could be a problem with Duel Sheath Redux. Just before I equipped the Elven Daggers, I had duel Steel Daggers equipped. They were both tempered to "Fine". When I then equipped the Elven Dagger in my right hand(the first one I got) and a Steel Dagger in my left hand, two Steal Daggers would be visible(I use the on-back-hip thing that STEP recommends), and when I drew my daggers, my right hand weapon(the Elven Dagger) would be invisible. When I dropped one of the Steel Daggers, it seemingly fixed it(but calling that a fix would be a stretch). 

But my current problem is that the left hand Elven Dagger sheath is a Dwarven Dagger sheath.

Furthermore, when I equip nothing but an Elven Dagger in the left hand(and doesn't duel wield, no weapon in the right hand), I can see both weapons sheathed, and the left hand weapon is still a Dwarven Dagger Sheath. However, if I equip my Elven Dagger only in the right hand, it only shows the right hand weapon, and with the right hand it consistently uses the correct sheath.

[DoubleYou]

Interaction would be between Better Shaped Weapons and DSR, not this mod. This mod only affects the greatswords.

[Halde]

Oh.. Well now I feel silly. Is there a fix to this? Or shall I just accept it as is?

[DoubleYou]

I really don't know. I've never heard of this issue.

[lexo1000]

As Better Shaped Weapons already included scabbard, maybe this mod become useless?

[DoubleYou]

This mod still gives a scabbard to a sword or two untouched by BSW. It is rapidly becoming useless.

[EssArrBee]

This, Weapon De-LARP, and Closer Quivers are becoming useless as BSW develops. Just shows how much work goes into meshes.

[oqhansoloqo]

Hopefully at some point we can just rely on one mod, but not yet I guess.

 

I'm hoping that at some point someone covers scabbards for Ancient Nordic weapons - I understand the BSW author's reason for not doing it, but there's got to be some kind of appropriate way to make something that fits in with Draugrs that will also look cool to wear as a player wielding such a weapon.  The weapons are very common as Draugrs are throughout the game.  The greatswords are pretty badass looking.  It's a shame to not have a proper scabbard to keep it in when on the back.  Maybe a scabbard that was made of metal rims and some kind of material that has deteriorated, but since the metal lasts, the metal remains as some kind of crude bare-bones scabbard that still shows most of the sword (because the material that would normally cover it has deteriorated).  A chain could be used as a "strap"...  In other words - there are ways to make it look cool and work logically.
