1.0.12 Latest

1.0.11

Default UnequipOnSheath is now false so R-sheath shows weapon + shield on your back (vanilla). Set UnequipOnSheath = true if you prefer weapon-only on the back.

1.0.10

Fix: first sword draw after spawn now auto-equips the shield (warmup no longer baselines the weapon without applying).
