Enquipable AND placable... is that possible?

Basicly as the title says:
is it possible that an enquipable item is also a PLACABLE item?
so for instance my Vikingmod’s roundshields could double as decoration when hearthlings dont need them?

Once it is placed I guess they would not be able to be used, only when it is stocked they would search for it. Worth trying.

Let us know if it works, I’m curious myself ; )

got sidetracked by other stuff but my brain says no: allignment would be the trouble
(its alligned for a left hand bone, not for placement…)

Ah shoot, good point : /

would be doable though if the arm bone and the wall happened to allign. wink wink.
that or if one could tell the game if enquiped model X otherwise model Y.

Lol, sadly not possible. Would take way too much work to fix, and would only work for items that look exactly like the one you design it for, other items would attach differently (swords/spears/etc). You’d be better off writing some sort of code solution which allows you to specify an offset for wall or floor attachment.

a sort of if iconic>enquiped use ENQUIPED.json
if ghost>placed use placed with.json thing?

alternatively: a placable icon version might just do the trick, lol. your hearthling would just steal it off the wall when not needed.

…can one have an iconic version …for an iconic version?

edit4:
sorry malley.
edit5: so crafter > thing that goes in storage > thing that goes on wall >THAT one is enquipable.
all 3 pointing at different .qb’s

Well, there’s a thing called model variants…

Depending on the item type, the bone you attach it too, it could? work.
For males sadly they’re read as “default”. (Check the male_1.json / female_1.json file, for example - inside “render_info”).

If the item has 2 variants, not sure which one would be applied for the placeable item. Perhaps the default one.
There might be a workaround that involves a mixinto for many files :thinking:

#maximum brainstorming

il try the made item > placable shield that is enquipable > enquipped shield one another day though, currently re-doing my chainmail armour…again and enabling the default quests for the Nordlings. (no relations to norselings)
