This isn't really a bug but maybe just a small detail I think you may have overlooked: This mod doesn't hide your weapons when you cast a spell, so when you cast a spell it looks like you have 4 hands.

Roger, that should be an easy fix. Thanks for the heads up.

Just dropped a new version. I believe this one should fix the werebeast load bug.

Heres a list of changes:
  • Werebeast bug fix, I believe. The mod should not allow you to be in beast form and have melee human hands out, ever. I put in a manual check and override.
  • Cleaned up some code and streamlined if then else ladders using returns.
  • Added back random attack grunt sound. However, right now it triggers on frame 1 instead of frame 2 like classic.
  • Added back weapon skill tallying so you get skill points for swinging/using weapons/fighting.
  • Physical weapons will now revert to raycasts from spherecasts for their arc calculations. This is to stop a bug where multiple spheres draw over one another and then cause multiple hits detected on the same object. With physical arcs in and enabled, the sphere cast bubble trick is not needed.

Just pushed the cast hand render bug fix. Let me know if it is remedied.

Almost!

It succesfully hides weapons, but when I tested it out with a weapon and a shield it didn't hide the shield

The werebeast offhand bug is also almost fixed. Mechancially it's fixed but the left hand gets very stretched out horizontally and slightly squashed vertically for some reason.

No worries!

Btw, just a heads up, if you push a new fix in the next few hours I probably won't be able to test out if it works until tomorrow night.

Shield bug is fixed for sure.

I'm trying to short the hand update code using a return in the routine. This is a method similar to classic to update werebeast hands. I'm hoping it fixes the stretch issue. The stretch issue is a sign that the wrong weapon rect is loaded for that sprite, so either it isn't in idle state or the wrong weapon type is being loaded after the sprite is injected via code.

Hopefully it fixes it.

no problem on waiting.

Interestingly, it only seems to happen if I exit and restart the game imbetween the save and the reload, if I save in werebeast form and reload the save right away it doesn't break.
Are you using dream ?
The high-res textures from dream might mess it up.
It's what happened when they did NPC Sprites they were too pretty so it messed stuff up, if that's what it is then there's like a memory limit for the graphics for handheld stuff, and adding two high-def hands, from dream messes it up.
Just a thought

Probably nothing to do with that. Good guess. I still need to see how dream textures render. I did try to keep the original import code chunks in place within the code in the hopes custom textures still work.

I need to load a werebeast save myself to track down the bug.
