A simple mod that makes your character look cooler and more badass and lets you auto equip shield.
>## ## Installation (manual)
- extract
WeaponHolsterOverhaul.dllfile to yourBepInEx\Plugins\folder
>## ## Features
- Instead of unequipping a weapon when you equip another weapon, it will just stay on your back or waist while another weapon is currently equipped giving you a more warrior like viking vibe.
- You can switch between weapons on back/waist and currently equipped by pressing the hide/show weapon hotkey which is the default vanilla R key.
- If you equip any one handed weapon except axe (configurable) the shield with the best block power will be auto equip.
- Lets you swap/equip/unequip weapons while moving.
