Left Hand Equipping work around (sort of) : V

» Fri Jan 18, 2013 12:10 pm

I wanted to post this workaround to get items to equip in the left hand. This is in hopes that someone can expand on it to be a better fix. This does not work on items you enchant or improve, which is a severe drawback.

The method needs you to have the item hotkeyed to a vanilla 1-8 hotkey. Then you must pass that set hotkey's keycode to the function along with the item you wish to equip to the left hand.

Function LeftHandEquip(form EquipItem, int VHK)    If player.GetEquippedWeapon(true) != EquipItem        float StartTime = Utility.GetCurrentRealTime()        form prevright = None        int prevrighttype = player.GetEquippedItemType(1)        If player.GetEquippedWeapon() == EquipItem            player.UnEquipItem(EquipItem, false, true)        elseif (prevrighttype > 0 && prevrighttype < 5) || prevrighttype == 8            prevright = player.GetEquippedWeapon()        elseif prevrighttype == 9            prevright = player.GetEquippedSpell(1)        endif        objectreference temp = player.placeatme(EquipItem)        player.additem(temp)        player.EquipItem(temp.getbaseobject(), false, true)        while player.GetEquippedWeapon() != EquipItem && (Utility.GetCurrentRealTime() - StartTime) < 3.0            utility.wait(0.5)        endwhile        input.tapkey(VHK)        If prevright != None            If prevright.gettype() == 22                player.EquipSpell(prevright as Spell, 1)            elseif player.GetItemCount(prevright) > 0                player.EquipItem(prevright, false, true)            endif        endif        player.removeitem(temp)    endifendfunction
