Nicos Reversed Daggers

This mod adds 3 new craftable reverse-grip daggers to the game using resources from my previous creations of the Aragorn and Tauriel daggers. They mirror Ebony's stats. They are designed to be used with reverse dagger-specific animations, but can be used without. See known issues with sheath placement.

Reasons for this pattern:

______________________

This is something I created for myself, for use in ESkyrim's reverse double dagger animation.

I thought I'd post it for others who might enjoy playing it.

What this module does:

____________________

This pattern is self-contained and does not require the resources of my previous pattern.

The plugin is marked. English courses for non-native speakers

It adds 3 new craftable reverse daggers to the game that can be improved using resources from my earlier version.

Aragorn's Dagger

Aragorn's Dark Dagger

Tauriel's Dagger

They require the Ebony Smithing perk to craft and mirror Ebony properties.

They can also be obtained using the additem menu mod.

They don't require ESkyrim's animations, but can use them just fine.

How I implement them in my own game:

________________________________________

Since I have the Aragorn Dagger and Tauriel Dagger in my game, I wanted to have different animations in this mod.

I set up custom conditions for Eskyrim's MCO animation like this:

IsActorBase(" skyrim.ESM " | 0x 000007) and

isequippedrettype(2) and

IsEquippedLeftType(2) and

IsEquippedRightHasKeyword(" Nicos Reversed daggers. esp " | 0x 000d 65)

This way, the only weapons that can use reversed dagger animations are from this mod, while regular daggers can use different animations that better suit their style.

Known issues:

_______________

The handle is the center point so when unarmed the blade will stick out in the other direction.

I solved this problem by using Racemenu with XPSE to vertically reposition the dagger into a position that works for both normal and reverse blade orientation.
