Hi all

I'd just like to know how I make a pistol offhand, so it can be dual-wielded and such.
I know it has something to do with shields, but I don't know anymore than that.

Simple.

Copy the HDfirearm code.

Paste it somewhere below.
AddToGroup = Shields

remove any more add to group codes.
Rename the device

thankyou good sir!
works perfectly.

Actually, you can have it added to more groups. Just as long as one of them is Shields. In my mod, I have my offhand weapons set to both Shields and DarKlone Weapons.

Also, even if its in Shields, you can wield that weapon in your primary hand if you don't have any other one-handed weapons or pieces of equipment. So, you don't have to have copies or duplicates of firearms to do this. Just make sure the weapon you want dual-wielded is one handed and in the Shields group, and it'll cover all the bases.

I actually just learned this, and need to go do it in my own mod.

None of them can be the Weapons or Tools category, though.

Yeah, you're right. I just figured that out.

Now I have it set up so my actors can use a pistol and a combat knife at the same time, like Snake in MGS3. It suddenly makes both weapons infinitely more awesome.
