… (major) known problems/limitations?
– it’s not possible to use two “special tools” at once – so one hand is always empty
– animation speed depends on the skill level
– minor clipping issues with female/very thin bodies and long arms
– some clunky parts in the animations
– mod does not work with “custom races”, because there is no link to the animation files – I’am on it!

… keep in mind
this mod does not override any existing animations/skeleton files, but it replaces the reference to the “generic use” animation. it also uses some existing materials.

Stay tuned for updates
