ACCEPTED Dual Wield Parrying (by Borgut1337)

Is there a need to create a new thread for Dual Wield Blocking animations?

Yep, please make it separate, thanks ;)

I would request that some effort be made to explain which of the six versions of the mod are recommended - the descriptions are only marginally helpful and do not have much of an explanation as to why, or under what circumstance, you would choose one version over the other.

SKSE unless you use a controller to play, in that case you would use one of the others. (Never ScriptDragon)

Mod Page Needs to be edited accordingly.

Just want to add my 2 cents worth.

 

One of the versions is Dual Wield Parry Left Hand - it used to be a bit buggy but I actually fixed it for Borgut1337 and it should be very reliable now.

 

Things to consider for Dual Wield Parry Left Hand:

 

- It uses no scripts at all.

- It uses the same default button setup as sword and shield or two handed weapons. i.e. Left click to attack, right click to block. Not having to learn a new button setup makes switching equipment/characters a lot easier.

- Its only disadvantage is that left attacks are disabled while dual wielding. This is usually not an issue if a dagger is being wielded in the left hand as is popular.

- Right-hand attacks and dual attacks, both normal and power versions, are as vanilla.

 

The first two points are what swayed me towards the Left Hand version instead of the more popular SKSE and Scriptdragon versions.

For me, I simply set the SKSE version to middle mouse button (push scroll wheel) and works pretty flawlessly with no loss in function.

What about Dual Wield Parrying Reimplementation?

Looks like it breaks fighting on horseback reading the comments.

Along these lines, I think it will be helpful to those STEP followers reading here who like to use a gamepad that version 3.1 does not properly remap the block button to your gamepad. Reverting to version 2.52 works, allowing you to remap the block button through the MCM menu, but you give up the version 3 features (which seems to just be the bash feature and 'fixes', according to the mod page). Credit for this info to a user on the Nexus forums, but since I had to dig for this solution, I thought I would post it here for greater visibility.

Sorry if this the wrong place to post this, but I just installed this mod from the Nexus page, and i noticed in LOOT that the SKSE version has a requirement for script dragon, is there anyway to remove this myself?

There are multiple versions of Dual Wield Parrying in the Download tab. The "01 Dual Wield Parrying Script Dragon 2_50" file requires Script Dragon, but the first two do not.

[Alper19]

Well I’m sure I downloaded the correct one since the plugin has SKSE in its file name, but Script Dragon shows under the requirement tab of LOOT for the plugin and it’s preventing me from running LOOT

 

Edit: redownloading the mod seemed to have fixed whatever issue I was having in LOOT
