will it be a separate mod or just an updated version
Thank you sir
I will try to figure out it seems that nexus want a separate upload
you should be able to just update it
like go on ur mod page and then make a new download
version
just make it seperate
and call it like
vicious weapon pack 2
huzz-ah!
i dont think you should do that
since it's very hard to find ones that you want
so instead of doing that you can just ahve them in 1 big pack
and dont need to find them
half sword doesn't even have a lot of mods ngl
and also
i think its just better
cuz personally i want to have the first set of weapons from the pack
and the second one
and when it has alot of mods it's gonna be hard to find
you can have the same experience by just moving folders in pooled_saves
it might take 5 mins but you can still separate them
just remove the ones from the current pack into their current file and name it pack 1 or smth, then get the 2nd version and remove the already existing ones
wallah, u got it
not yet
also do you have a loadout with like a scythe in it?
so i can just easily load it in ovrdth
no
alr
u can prob just spawn one in
and then save
@chilly oasis any luck?
or u still smokin the za
2nd pack is out yay
send link
.
holy shit so many weapons
fuck yeah
he made them two separate packs
or wait
is this the same pack
but with more weapons?
@chilly oasis
aight
So if you already have pack 1, just download the second file
I am so confused with this nexus format and I am so tired it’s 3am here I came back from work at 8pm and had been at this since
shutup
i asked for it
i will freely display it
i am grateful for it
it feels so good
Please help me made some videos or pics and share them to fellow enthusiasts, I am too tired for now.
Chef's Recommendations also includes the Shovel Axe, the Harpoon, and full metal quarterstaff
i got a pic
lemme get it
u can crop it down or whatever
idm
thank you
Wow look amazing!!!
Thank you sir
I have been thinking a lot about the war scythe but no great ideas yet
is it possible to spawn gear with the HS enhancer, wear it and save it with the OVRDTH's mod?
Yes
The shovel loadout is genial, the lantern make it super cool
You did an amazing work, so much details and new realistic weapons, love it!
I’ve got a question to ask, how do you make mods in the first place?
How do I do that? Or does it only work with basic gear not when there's a custom weapon involved?
No custom weapons can be spawned, only native items 😦
This is a tutorial on how to create custom loadouts in Half Sword 0.5 by purely editing files. In this video I will walk you through how to install trumank's Unreal Engine Save Editor (UESE), and how to use it to edit your Half Sword save files.

This way
I'm starting creating some my own weapons
guys, I just want somebody to make a mod to put invincible and omni man skins into the game, thats all I want in this life
impossible as of right now, unless you accept ones that are coloured clothing
you're welcome
i might start too but i have no idea where to start
I can fck with some blue and yellow clothes
thats still cool
i mean u can make ur own through this
or u can be lazy and just ask someone else
imma try it out
the thing is that I need the willy to be yellow and blue and I to be red and white
can I do that?
maybe if the game mode is spoilance idk
hey, first time modding literally anything, how do i get mods from nexus to work properly? because im trying to download an armory mod, but it doesnt seem to be showing up ingame
what armory mod?
I mean im not sure what to do with the file i installed
Thats why im confused
you need OVRDTH's selector first of all
I dont know where to put it
install that first
relative went hard with the drip on this one my god
its impeccable
Ah alright
once you installed it you need to find the place you installed it to, show hidden items by going on the top bar, view and then show - hidden items
if you did that you see a folder called "pooled_saves"
extract the vicious pack and get the CARE2SHARE3/4 folder and paste/drag it into pooled_saves
then once you did that, go ingame, launch OVRDTH's selector, select the rank you want to fight on in menu without starting, go on OVRDTH's selector and double click on the loadout you want to use, then go back and start a game, you should then have the loadout
this works with all current mods that use custom weaponry, custom loadouts and custom coloured or assorted armors/clothing
Thank you so much, i'll do that
the only custom weaponry packs include: vicious, double bladed swords, comically large swords, Pix's boi sword, and all 4 of chrome's weapons
the rest like black loadouts, pix's loadouts, OVRDTH's native presets and special loadouts (aka just historical willies) include armor and unmodified weapons
yw ❤️
@chilly oasis just a heads up, if you are expecting to have the katana in pack 2, then it isn't there
the only thing i hate on some of these loadouts is that they have absolutely 0 head armor, they all go for the head and when i charge in with a 6 foot sword i get sliced in half by a 1 hand axe
how do i change my height with the half sword enhancer mod? i cant seem to figure it out
true but its a worthy sacrifice for the aura
u have to spawn an npc with ur preferred height and possess it
since when could u inherit willies
since the latest update i believe
gasp
horrible
im sure ghost will find a way
yaknow, HS should add a restart button when u die
instead of ahving to go back to menu
every time
where is the katana
ok
worth the wait
thats sickkk
ty
im still trying to figure out how people get photos this detailed with the photo mode
like just moving ur mouse around
prob depth of field and stuff, might be some outside work too
watcha think?
So these are weapons coming out?
a katana yes
damn
well as a mod, not officially of course
is there a lightsaber yet
OHHH
then is there a light saber mod
sort of
hell nah
well it doesnt glow
theres one in the vicious weapon pack 1 but its not like an actual light saber
show me a screenshot
its just a long sword with a cyan blade
but there's a recoloured blade, it's just a blue bladed sword
its pretty cool nonetheless
wait show me
one sec
or send me the link
ill show in a min
take ur time
gotta load it up
how do you download mods
ohh just a blue sword
someone needs to make a lightsaber mod i been waiting for so long
i feel like this game would be the perfect pc game for lightsabers
for custom weapons/loadouts, you need OVRDTH's selector installed first, it's on nexus mods,
once you installed it you need to find the place you installed it to, show hidden items by going on the top bar, view and then show - hidden items
if you did that you see a folder called "pooled_saves"
extract the vicious pack and get the CARE2SHARE3/4 folder and paste/drag it into pooled_saves
then once you did that, go ingame, launch OVRDTH's selector, select the rank you want to fight on in menu without starting, go on OVRDTH's selector and double click on the loadout you want to use, then go back and start a game, you should then have the loadout
this works with all current mods that use custom weaponry, custom loadouts and custom coloured or assorted armors/clothing
patience my friend
we just now figured out how to make custom weapons
as a community
not from official devs
we basically working with sticks and stones atm
entering the bronze age n shit
we making it up there
https://www.nexusmods.com/games/halfsword/mods here's all the mods
https://www.nexusmods.com/halfsword/mods/11 OVRDTH's selector
when the full game comes up just remind me to upgrade my laptop
can barely run medium at 30 fps💔😭
it comes out in Q4 this year, early access that is, so around december, november and october
okay
i downlad the ivrdh shit
the only custom weaponry packs include: vicious, double bladed swords, comically large swords, Pix's boi sword, and all 4 of chrome's weapons
the rest like black loadouts, pix's loadouts, OVRDTH's native presets and special loadouts (aka just historical willies) include armor and unmodified weapons
all other mods are just trainers/cheats and visual modifiers
custom weapons from only "vicious, double bladed swords, comically large swords, Pix's boi sword, and all 4 of chrome's weapons"
look here
4 chrome334 mods, comically large swords, double bladed swords and vicious weapon pock
ok i downloaded vordtdth
pack*
ohh okay its a pack that contains more weapons and stuff
go to the folder where you downloaded it to
I extract?
uhhh is it called ovrdth selector
send me a screenshot
of what ur lookin at
double click ovrdth's selector application
then show me next screenshot
where did u install it to
files
this is what shows
dw the x is cuz microsoft is making up some bs that my storage is full an forcing me to pay them to get more storage
onedrive
ok at the top u should see this
press on hidden items
then u should have "pooled_saves"
ok, now ima lay it in steps:
-
install the mods that include custom weapons/loadouts that you want
-
once done, extract them
-
open up extracted folder and copy/drag the folder that includes all the saves into "pooled_saves"
ok any mods of my choice?
yes
oh no
thats fine
not any reshades or cheats/trainers
thats fine anyways dw
where did u get all those weapons
OVRDTH's selector includes 3 native folders
black loaout
the rest are these
that doesn't include any custom weapons
what is it
i recommend getting vicious weapon pack if u want high quality weapons
okok
basically just a pack that makes everything black
when you finish installing mods,
launch OVRDTH's selector and Half sword,
Then in menu select your rank you wanna fight against without starting
go on OVRDTH's selector and double click on the save you want,
then start a game and you should have it, repeat if dead or do it before moving onto another game after winning with other loadouts
did you install both packs
they both contain diff weapons
so pack 2 has exclusive weapons and so does pack 1
sweet
now if u want u can start the game with this
tell me if u have any trouble
okok
ima go now
Watch the tutorial from Sable, the link i,'ve posted
Yes Is wath I'm doing
That weird, did you have saved your loadout?
i can now make a better dragon slayer blade
saves the loadout but not ur size
Ahhh ok yeah unfortunally not 😦
man i cant wait until profesional modders get a hold of half sword. like i mean imgaine lightsabers in half sword... this finna be so tuff
can you give Willie at least some pants if you update it? 🤣
Yeah that not for me lol I prefer to stick on more historical or medieval fantasy stuff, but I think will be not that hard once the Devs will open a official platform for modding
maybe not that specifically but the additons and more thats gonna be added to the game all the quality of life mods etc. its gonna be amazing
erm no
nexusmods . com
so... can anyone walk me through on how to add custom weapons to this game please? 😄
I'm still learning the basics, but I will gonna make a tutorial in the next weeks
nice, that would be awesome.
But the basics are very simple if you follow the YouTube tutorial of @exotic estuary , he say how to actually port sav binary files into JSON, and then you have to modify values inside it. The most simple thing to start are the value of the size of the item, xyz, and then I'm figuring out how to change the item loaded
Thank you
Huh it’s isn’t there!?
Damn, let me check sorry it was so late last night
ehhhh one day
?
Fixed! Please redownload the pack2 sorry!
What ever happened
Thank you Sujion for explaining and helping
big fan
Sorry I fixed it, please redownload
You actually feels older and more matured in your speech here Sujion, very well mannered and thoughful, keep up the good life!
what's care2share4
its the zipfile name
okay but why is it (the name of the file) care2share4
1 and 2 was loadout packs shared in reddit in the past during Playtest V0.4 era
3 was the first Vicious Weapon Pack (1), and then 4 is the Pack(2)
i need help im using Half Sword Viscous Weapon Pack 2 Mod but the weapons wont load when i randomize my weapons
not supposed to randomize your weapons like you normally do with the original game loadouts, ie clicking and cycling thru
i did that as well
wait
I am it is not supposed to
I mean it is not supposed to
how to use is; select your tier you wanna play in, select your loadout in the Ovrdth Selector panel, click it and then enter the play round
it is not supposed to change
oh wiat
so
i click on the tier folder first
then go 2 care 2 share
and click whatever i want
but it will be there when you enter the fight round
yes
it wont appear initially on the main screen, but it will appear when you exit out of the castle courtyard fight rounds
its just like that all the way, the mod simply injects the loadout file right before the round is enter, but does nothing to the main screen graphics initially
welcome
u talking about the old one?
yw ❤️
i appreciate that thanks
it's prob cuz i go at a really strict school
Sure
Guys if yall are playing the katana please help me note you get more slashes vs blunts on left hand grip vs right hand grip
Because since it’s modded from a single edge falchion blade, it hasn’t cut well since month ago when I first started experimenting
But later discover it seems to cut more consistent when I hit X key to switch grip orientation
But how it seems to randomize
Like I am getting blunts both left and right grip
But now* typo
@tidal isle yo the reason why u can't see the custom weapons when u randomise, is because that's not how you get them.
get in game with OVRDTH's selector launched, select the rank you want to fight against without starting
go on OVRDTH's selector and double click the loadout you want from CARE2SHARE3/4 and then start the game
you should then have it
ill try it later on just woke up
Thanx
kinda complex but i got to use the berserk one and it was cool
sorry but it's the only way to get custom weapons
guys how do i install a mod ?
i really wish the modteam would pin my instructions
Yeah would be good so everyone have the info easily
install the mod you want from the universally known website of mods called nexus mods only a select few have custom weapons or loadouts, please read the description of them or the tile before downloading themhttps://www.nexusmods.com/games/halfsword/mods?page=1
then install OVRDTH's selector https://www.nexusmods.com/halfsword/mods/11
once OVRDTH's selector is installed via the .exe in it's extraction, and the mods you downloaded are extracted,
right click OVRDTH's selector and select open file location, then go into "pooled_saves", if you do not have this, go to the top of explorer, click on view, hover on show and then tick hidden items.
drag and drop/paste your mod folder into pooled_saves, you should then have a folder that includes folders of saves.
close explorer, open half sword and OVRDTH's selector
select the rank you want to fight against without starting, then on OVRDTH's selector, double click the loadout you want and then start, you should then have it.
this only works with mods that use custom loadouts/weapons, all other mods have a different way of being installed, such as the reshades and cheats/trainers
@supple kindle please dude pin this so i dont have to go through the trouble again
Sure
can modders please put helmets on their loadouts?
theres a reason why everyone above tier 3 has one
you have over powered weapons man
and helmet armor is just loss of aura
but maybe @chilly oasis can accept this advice and use it for later ones
my brother in christ it IS the aura
What Sujion said
Weapons were already OP
finding the most heated picture with a helmet doesnt count dude
that's like showing a cool ass gun from borderlands4 but without showing the gameplay
and in the words of Lord Overdeath, main character dont wear helmets
anyway its easy for you to just spawn in a helmet with the Halfsword Enhancer
geeb
sure, some loadouts do indeed need helmets
i am dying too much trying to use my metal quarterstaff against the swords
also wouldnt u be able to modify the colour of armors?
unable to thus far
before Ovrdth released his helmetless loadouts, many people had been trying to go bald and fail
ahahahah
I'm.planning to make my own weapon pack, with both heavy armoured equipment and less armoured equipment
excellent
more weapons for me to use to cut off my willies
wait
nice
more things to touch willies with
Making this bardiche, still need a lot of balancing, but already usable
Hope to have a ready pack for the end of the next week
what mod is that?
vicious pack 2
the katana wasn't in the pack originally but now it's been added
is it on nexus or github
Guys I am reuploading pack2 as 2.1 in a hour or two
coz I need to update the notes on Katana, and also some blunt stuff balance wasnt done testing yet and I forgotted and included them in last nights upload
I have finished some of their balance and going to reload
nexus
Updated to 2.1
Please redownload if the 2H full metal battle axe is inportant to you, coz the previous version balance and handling was not good
whats ur pack called ill download it
Vicious Weapon Pack
just downloaded 2.1 seems kinda weird
There is two weapon pack in the same mod
looks like u accidentaly duplicated the folder so it shows up twice
Pack 1 and 2, so two files to download in the same mod
I just hate the nexus thingy I struggle with it
nah nah i mean
care2share4 is in care2share4
seems it took the place of the ultra heavy club
eh just delete it
doesnt matter too much
yeah
how does OVRDTH's selector work
Yes, Thank you I have fixed it now
Anyway the super big spiked club I also removed for the moment the balanced is also not good, till i got time to fix it
So it will be in pack 3
@chilly oasis if u want ideas i'd recommend using the feedback thread for suggested weapons https://discord.com/channels/1043854763189600337/1310346551910203512
oh thats urs its fire
im actually able to use the rapier as a rapier if u get what i mean
here's the 2 handed big spike club old version if anyone wants it tho
hey, does anyone know how to make the trainer mod not crash the game after three minutes?
use a different trainer
if you dont want to crash
suggest?
what do you even use man
as a trainer
i cant suggest something you already use
aight will do thanks
I cant find the hidden file Pooled_saves anywhere
is there a specific place i need to search?
check pins
i've enabled hidden files, its still not there
show me a screenshot
go in the OVRDTH's selector folder and then show me
i must say, searching using explorer is extremely unreliable
idk what else to use, sorry
u haven't even downloaded it...download it by going on the exe
then go to the root of where you installed it and you should find pooled saves
then follow these steps
starting from drag and drop/paste your mod folder into pooled_saves, you should then have a folder that includes folders of saves.
it's where you downloaded it to, when you start installing, you get an option to choose where you put it in files
go to the folder you installed it to
this one?
hell no dude
bro i have no idea
go back on the installer shit and take a screenshot of the pathway
u should see this
this?
U SHOULD SEE THIS
I DONT KNOW WHAT IM DOING 😭 😭
THIS
OK
ok, now navigate to that place
click browse?
put it in the top right search thing?
god no
it's not hard to find, go on my pc, C drive, users, dorian, documents and then OVRDTH's selector
alr
extract the mod files "vicious"/"CARE2SHARE4" into pooled_saves
that's it
do u need baby steps to load it too
probably 💔
close explorer, open half sword and OVRDTH's selector
select the rank you want to fight against without starting, then on OVRDTH's selector, double click the loadout you want and then start, you should then have it.
this only works with mods that use custom loadouts/weapons, all other mods have a different way of being installed, such as the reshades and cheats/trainers
wait js tell me if this is right
ok open up OVRDTH's selecftor
the file or the app
nothing
are you playing plants vs zombies or sum shit
ignore that
nah
I double click and nothng happens
open with the ARROW
u see the arrow
on the left
click on that
show
already have it open
actually ima just copy and paste my shit
select the rank you want to fight against without starting, then on OVRDTH's selector, double click the loadout you want and then start, you should then have it.
this only works with mods that use custom loadouts/weapons, all other mods have a different way of being installed, such as the reshades and cheats/trainers
FOLLOW THIS CLOSELY
ITS NOT HARD AT ALL
please tell me u got it
im looking through the loadouts rq
alr it worked
how many years did i take off your lifespan
3000
thank you so much
i've became jesus at this point
i hope i never have to bother you again
me too
im gonna go pretend the willies are you
alr
@chilly oasis
Yes, it’s balanced to point high and stable for stabbing
Thank you sujion
After playing with the really heavy , slow and short full metal quarterstaff for 2 hours, I went back to the Pack 1 quarterstaff and became super skillful with the fast wooden staffs , it’s literally a polearm training tool for the player
noted
I see no fan
Could someone help me learn how to mod?
do you have any experience modding?
Yeah, I actually kinda already figured out the mod I wanted to get and got it
thanks for wanting to help tho
all good my dude
Anyone know how to play the endless mode? Ive seen it in videos, its the normal map with no fence and you go through the ranks
the abyss? or the final challenge
was it all black or were the castle walls still there
is there a mod install guide somewhere? or a video i can follow?
someone make a lightsaber mod pls
Anyone know if it'd be possible to make a sword similar to this in half sword
I just want more hook weapons like the bill hook lowk
thank you i was reading their posts, funny many of the items we have in mods, but many people are not opened to the idea of modding
@harsh haven don't think so, with the limited/improvised tools for modding we have, we can only change size of modular parts of weapons and/or change which asset is loaded
Why'd you @ me?
prob one of the instances where you forget to delete smth you typed before switching to a new topic
probably not
alotta weird shapes
no
yes check pin, 1st message for custom weapons
you have to jump to it
i want to cave willie’s head in
The existing hammers not big enough yah? Hahhaa
Main issue with blunt and big stuff is weight and balance in a physics based game
And then we should not stray too far into fantasy from reality
Ie can a wood pole/handle take the weight of a like 30lb hammer head or axe
As these are supposed to be impact tools
So the expensive poleaxe have langards
The main problem so far is orientation, we can’t rotate, ie the lateral scythe blade to be vertical
I need more thinking
So real life sledge hammer size see actually not much bigger than the war hammers in the game, it is possible to increase the warhammer head size but to make it special and worthy, it needs to be a lot bigger visually and that’s where the weight problem comes
That said, I do have an existing prototype but its unbalanced and hard to use, Willie die 90% of the time
and langards like shaft was made so that the shaft is a hybrid of metal and wood
its very slow and the counterweight is already so big
and you can see willie can stumble and hit the fence trying to manage it
I need to think sir, its definitely in my intentions
I'm working on making one (one handed)
Cool, but yeah too heavy far as I see in my opinion
I want to make one like your, one handed, but less fat
The current packs have a well balanced one handed full metal hammer that is still quite big
But it doesn’t have the intimation factor hahah
There is a 2 handed big Lucerne’s hammer that is fast and well balanced
But that one looks more refined than a “brute force” sledgehammer
So because I have a “Ore Miner” loadout with his Shovel Axe, it’s natural he will have a sledge hammer for his mining
trust me i tried it was fucking hilarious
amazing work on the dragon slayer btw
Thank you
the dragonslayer is amazing
i accidentally kept my qual on medium so it looks a bit sucky
the sword is so heavy if you launch yourself into the air you end up doing a drill dive into them
if you actually hit it they just die instantly
Yeah I love It, tested this morning
Wtf 😂
What move is this!!! You flew to the sky and then dive down stab him?
Can I repost this pic on Reddit?
hello, ive downloaded the vicious weapon pack mod and have put it in the necessary OVRDTH folder, but idk how to actually load it in the game
the instructions are pretty vague and there arent any tutorials for it
Ope the game, with Ovdrth app opened, switch to free mode, choose any of tier you want to fight, cycle trough, before start game, open ovdrth window, double click on the loadout you want, then start game. Done
I'm making a big ass 2h falchion and is so op guys. I will share some video/pic tonight. Feel like having a huge butchering blade, cutting in half Willie's was never so easy lol
i see, you just double click on it and it just appears, tysm dude
is there a way to make the text from the trainer mod dissapear tho?
HOW DO I FIX THISS??
press your windows key and type nvidia
then update your drivers
be warned
its gonna take
a LONG time
because you are fairly behind it seems on your updates
I know it's possible to put a little curved extension on the blade but I've only seen it done at the bottom of the blade
25 or so versions behind it seems...
poor man might have to wait 40 minutes 😭
is there any guide on installing hs mods ?
each mod generally has its own instructions
thanks diablo and apollo!
👍
Don't know sry
i would love to see more loadouts
would it be possible to replace the shield textures/emblems with custom ones?
For the weekend I will upload my loadout selection, and then my modded weapons loadout if I will be satisfied with the result 😉
may i know the contents?
Pretty sure is not possible yet without hard coding. Do you have any pic example? I'm curios, if that is possible, sabers are coming for sure 😈
Check the Pinned comments here, its the top right Pin logo, Sujion had detailed the explainations.
The loadout pack is just native loadouts I like that I've putted in one pack, with some exception like custom loadout (Eg spiked warstaff with mid tier armor and tower pavise on the back, pretty OP). The weapons I'm making atm are: great bardiche, 2handed falchions (various types), some kind of soft fantasy poleaxes, butcher knife, war cleaver, altgeir (a kind of Norse spear with wide long blade), pike, and hopefully some more
yeah thats fine with me its ur mod anyways
yeah due to the weight it just drags you down
I think it's the estoc in vicious weapon pack 1 that has it, I could be wrong
I'll figure it out when I get home
I suppose he modified a curved falchion, not really sure, meant @chilly oasis can told us more
There are Sabres in the Weapons Pack 2, along side with Katana and Kreigmessers , all curved blades that doesn't look 'wrong'
estoc has no curve, but it has a thick diamond shaped cross profile blade that is 'truer' to historic estocs
Thank you
Is it possible to put a billhook blade on a sword
That'd probably be the easiest way to make a hook sword
can anyone say whether or not halfsword enhanced is working as intended after the update? i feel like 80% it works as intended, but the strength/hand hardness is a little weaker. not sure if its the update or the mod, but im really struggling to shield bash/hilt bash as hard as i was a week ago. a lot of times it bounces off their head.
anyone?
also the dash feels a little weaker as well. should i reinstall the mod maybe?
Did you add the Katanas and shamshirs to the weapon pack 2?
if posible configure two wiimotes for play?
yea
i am having issue installing this mod
all clearly written
yet i cannot find the pooled saves folder in the ovrdth selection folder
i'm thinking it simply not there
i need help
dawg how is that gonna work we cant play the old one
Is it possible to make blades sharper by changing some numbers in the files? x)
So I made some weapons, some still need a lot of polishing and balancing, expecially the polearms, while 2h falchions are quite finished. HEre is the files if anywant want to try them and give me a feedback. These are the weapons included: 3 types of 2 handed falchions (one is fantasy), a war cleaver (use it 2h), butcher knife, 2h fat greatsword, estoc&bucler, 2h long spiked mace
Its hidden
U need to enable em
Look in pins
pins?
Pinned messages
I really like the Great Falchion, kinda looks like the Hardedge in FF7 😎
Works good for me, at least the strength does i haven't really used dash.
I've been on the test build and for strength it seems like a pretty fine line between too much and too little with the slider
that war cleaver is nuts
congrats you have made the best chopping weapon in the game
thanks, i actually "recalibrated" the values and it seemed to have fixed my issue. very strange.
Yes 2.1 has katana, if your pack 2 doesn’t have katana please redownload
Make sure you “show hidden files and folders in your computer view options
thanks for the weapons btw
love them
how do i install mods
Welcome sir
Which mod do you want to install
yoooo, weapon mods are now a thing??? cool!
Probably around 40+ new weapons in Vicious pack 1 and 2 added up? I lost count.
is anyone on rn i need help with ovrdth
can u somehow edit abyss weapon spawn to spawn weapons from vicious weapon pack 2
Thanks you 🙂 I'm looking for a name, like corpse chopper? Meat grinder?
Thanks ❤️
i'd love to make some weapons myself - how do you do it?
getting it actually working in Half Sword specifically
guessing since it's UE you have to set it up in the editor first like it's set up in half sword then export a pak and stuff
This is a tutorial on how to create custom loadouts in Half Sword 0.5 by purely editing files. In this video I will walk you through how to install trumank's Unreal Engine Save Editor (UESE), and how to use it to edit your Half Sword save files.

follow this tutorial, then atm what you can do is switching parts of modular wepoans and change their size by modify xyz values
I spent all morning balancng my pack, and now is officially released! Any feedback are really appreciated. Here is what inside:
🛠️ Weapon List:
🗡️ Falchions:
Well-Balanced Falchion (2H)
A heavy-hitting falchion with a broad blade and wide hand guard. Built for raw power and cutting, not precision or half-sword techniques.
Long Falchion (2H)
A thinner and more extended version, designed for reach and fluid attacks.
Corpse Slasher (2H Fantasy Falchion)
An enormous, grotesque falchion made for pure devastation. A brutal fantasy weapon with exaggerated proportions.
🔪 Swords & Knives:
Broadsword (2H)
Shorter than a standard two-hander but with a massive guard. Designed for controlled melee dominance.
Estoc & Buckler Combo
A piercing-focused sword paired with a small buckler, ideal for quick thrusts and defensive parries.
Butcher Knife
A heavy chopping blade designed for gruesome close-quarters combat.
Long Straight Saber
A sleek, agile blade offering long reach and fast, slashing movement.
🔧 Polearms & Cleavers:
Great Bardiche (2H)
A towering poleaxe with massive cleaving power. Still requires further balance testing.
Credit to BitterRelative for the base Lucerne model from the Vicious Pack.
Great Halberd (2H)
A wide-bladed polearm with devastating arc damage potential. Currently undergoing balancing.
War Cleaver
Available in Mid-Tier and High-Tier Armor versions. Brutal, weighty, and designed for tearing through armored foes.
⚒️ Hybrid & Utility Weapons:
Two-Handed Pickaxe
A savage hybrid of a pick and a long, thin axe blade. Excels at armor penetration and heavy stagger damage.
Barbed Mace with Blade Tip
A vicious weapon combining blunt trauma with a pointed, narrow blade for deep piercing and bleed effects.
🙌 Credits:

i'd like to make new weps using custom models, i can do the modelling, set the stuff up in editor and then make a pak with it so that configuration etc. can be done to bring it ingame
HS uses UE5.4 correct?
"package_version": {
"ue4": 522,
"ue5": 1012
this are the data from the files
not sure is possible without hardcoding the game, I think if you know how to work on UE you should be able to load custom model
but this is far from my knowledge lol
traditionally you can load 'mod' or 'patch' paks on top of existing UE5 games. normally this is restricted to just replacing existing assets in the game, but if you know what you're doing you could add stuff
if you got this working, share with us!
i know that but I only know a little of js and three,js coding
ahh, fair
not C# (or C++ I don't remember how is written the code in UE)
C++ in UE + blueprints
ah I see
don't know if HS uses Blueprints or C++ but if you extract the ueproj shouldn't be hard to figure out
you'd need to extract it anyways to see how they set up the weapon prefabs if you want to make a pak to add new prefabs
what we're all doing atm is to convert sav files into json, modify the values and then reconvert into sav files to laod as loadouts
i saw that hs enhancer has a thing to spawn items
so i was thinking we make a new item and use that to spawn the new item if the creator is willing to make a build with it or if it's open source
That would cool. Yeah the enhancer do that, but I suppose to load custom assets you will need to modify also the enhancer itself
it's probably the easiest way to test it outside of editing saves to add it to the loadout
nah, the pak should be loaded with the game
iirc the way it works is that UE5 will load any pak that's present in the content folder regardless of if it was originally built with the game or not
so that's how it's used for patches or mods
Sound great! We should definetly investigate furthermore
i should ask if hs games want to use the Wwise middleware for audio lol
much better than Metasounds or FMOD
By the way I tested it further and is absolutely savage. Agains unarmoured foe you feel that you've just entered in the butchery lol with armoured opponents is less effective unfortunally, many i should make it a bit heavier
i think blue
everything is done with blueprints
neat
it pains me to see how many people ask stuff before looking themselves
please look at pins
Yes please guys 🙏
it also takes self experimentation
Its real painful but it is what it is
You should add a description of what weapons are inside
whats with all the files labeled "ae"?
IDK LOL
thank you king
Planning to make some new weapons to add on my pack, Roman Gladio, brass knuckles, Franziska axe, new war cleaver (hafted version) Any suggestion or other ideas?
hidden blade
You mean like walking stick with blade inside? Or hidden blade in the style of Assassin Creed?
i think he meant a sword with a blade that has collisions but is invisible
Ah I see. I can see what I can do about that
js make the blade very thin
Yeah already made an estoc, quite the same thing I would say
cone i just installed your weapon pack i will try it out in a minute
cone
cone334
release the mjolnir
Can you download also mine?? Looking feedbacks regardings war cleaver and the 2h falchions versions 🙏
dm me the link
Uhhh that would be cool. But for sure will be soooo unbalanced lol. I will give a try
it's a weapon of the gods
can someone help me install weapon mods
it was just saying how gs and hs are not in association?
wrong message
it's the one with the image
"1st"
because you havent even installed it
right click OVRDTH's selector and open file location
you're looking in the wrong place
use view hidden saves if it still isnt there
wait nvm i saw you say
ignore
Yooo
I feel it should be a bit more heavy but this will make it quite unbalanced... What you think?
Did you also tried the war cleaver? (Ps. Can I upload your pic on nexus?)
Thanks you 💕
thx mate 🙂
I'm just returned home, going to try your pack too, later chrome one
Hmm, the 'saber straight' looks suspiciously familiar... 😅
Sorry mate I've just seen that the credits where only on the nexus page
going to add on the readme.txt now
yes and yes
@raw horizon Honestly, so far the best modded weapon in game for me is the corpse Slasher(would have called it bone splitter but welp... your mod, your names xD)
It's heavy but balanced and very fun to use. Splits people in half: 10/10
khopesh or a hook sword
A maul
Like a big big one
how do i unninstall this shit
Piggybacking this to ask if there’s a way to hide the menu?
It’s super distracting and keeps me from recording gameplay
But I love goofing around with the mod
press u
Anyone else having difficulty getting OVRDTH loadouts to work?
i heard someone made a mod with the GUTS sword
Bless you sir
where do i put mod files? im trying to instalal viscious weapons pack 2
yes in the vicious weapon pack 2 by @chilly oasis , you can find it on nexus
do you know what file i put the mod in?
but can the weapons be found in the abyss
in the ovdrth folder, look a the pinned message. there are all instructions
nope far as I know
i dont see guide
this
look up
this is the biggest I could do without being completely unusable
this is the best I did
It's a pretty bland guide. Nevertheless, I did follow it to the best of my ability, and still ... nothing.
this is way better
it works perfectly if you follow it correctly
Some people did say that the mod for loadouts was meant for the playtest, not the demo.
unzip the mod folder inside the ovdrth folder, then open half sword with ovdrth app open, switch to free mode, select the tier you want to fight, double click on the loadout in the ovdrth, then start game
they work fine
...oh. I swore I double-clicked.
💔
like i said it works correctly if you follow it correctly
release the mjolnir
release the mjolnir
release the mjolnir
MAKE A WEAPON SO HEAVY IT KNOCKS WILLIES AROUND LIKE TINY CHILDREN
is there a way to spawn the modded weapons?
no
you spawn it normally
with OVRDTH's selector
that's gonna break ur hand
darn it i jus wanna have a katana in the abyss
u cant
idk man
Hammers\maul series
the golden maul\mjolnir is hard to use, but just stay very close and always aim to the head
is there any knockback mods?
i burnt my hands while grabbing my tea
modders figure out how to add weapons to the loot pool
uh
Thanks you man ❤️
Lowk wish there was a mod that increased grip force so it wouldnt let go of my enemy yk?
Grip
iwish there was a mode where youre just limited to like a specific category of weapon
like knives or hammers etc
not based on class or anything
i wonder if its possible for modders to make a crossbow or something
that would be very interesting to see
There's half sword enhancer but that has its own launcher so idk if it works with other mods
It does, also you can manually install hs enhancer so that it launches from the normal half sword exe but the launcher is just for ease of use (people not knowing where to put files) and of uninstallation
It just runs itself over normal half sword so yes any mod will work with it
Some new tools of pains are cooking
What a knife
anyone got a katana mod except vicious weapon pack mod?
@cosmic elbow made one if I'm not wrong. I'm also making a katana, wakizashi and tanto, soon I Will pubblish them
you can ping me if you want when u publish them, i would like to try them
Sure!
i made a tanto and i feel like making a wakin sa zx xjlalj ksx
what the hell are those? and when can i use them?
Can someone find a way to take the cheval de frise that's under the map and replace the fence with it
I really wanna impale willies on the fence
any mod exist to play any weapons vs peasant ?
Weird stuff I'm making in the last two nights. Hopefully you will be able to play tonight if I manage to finish and polish what I got
a farmer or a shirtless peasant
yes I know but I want to use greatsword of the last tier VS peasant ^^
it can be really fun
oh
sorry my english is not very well x)
farmer can be cool
but where I can use any weapons of all tiers
use a trainer to spawn weapons
you can freeze the enemies and then spawn them
then unfreeze
oh yeah you're right ! 🙂 I will check where I can get a trainer, thank you !
wth is this
How do I remove ue4ss so it'll let me play the game?
mod request a big ass maul or sledgehammer
This
Can anybody help me with this?
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Half Sword Demo\HalfSwordUE5\Binaries\Win64\ue4ss"
heres the path just delete the folder ig
i don't see it
delete dwmapi.dll
alright ty
anyone know where the OVDRTH saves are?
usually in docs
Ok new version with a lot of funny weapons peopleee https://www.nexusmods.com/halfsword/mods/57
now u can 😉
how do you use modded weopons in other ranks? also mine will only work if I select it then launch the game and if I ever switch ranks or go back to menu from a fight it goes back to default
It’s already done and pending release in Vicious Weapon Pack 3, as a continuation to the ‘miner’s series’ that started with the Shovel Axe, upcoming there will be sledgehammer and Pick hammer
This is normal, each time you change tier you need to reselect and reload the modded weapons file in Ovrdth
i click the app and I use the assigned hotkey and nothing happens
@chilly oasis your harpoon is very fun to use i must say
Thank you. Vicious Pack 3 is coming with more fun weapons.
Pack 3 may be the final ‘pack.’ Thereafter if more weapons are mod/made, it will be released individually in small numbers as the direction shift towards more unique stuff
Hello Bitter, I have a question, what determines a weapon's sharpness?
If its a sword.
that is the true ultimate answer
coz, no matter how I try to blunt a sword, it is still sharp
no matter how I try to sharpen a blunt, it is still blunt
So every other blade is just less sharp or dull
😔
yes
Does material also affect sharpness?
can you increase the thickness of a sword till its like a building pillar, and it will still cut and cleave
or you can make a mace paper thin or micros thin, and it will still not cut
but stabbing is another matter
to a lesser degree
if an original item has a stabable tip, it can still stab
the tips of a spike is not as sharp as the tip of a sword
if you zoom to the details, you can see some mace spikes ends with a flat
Btw did you make the shovel axe with cleavers?
whereas most swords ends with a micro sharp tip
except for some blade profile that is rounded, but even round, they will stab better than blunt spikes, coz its like a cutting edge
its a sword blade
Is it possible to make a macahuitl with the spade
Like can you place multiple blades in a weapon?
Like this
i have this request before it may be possible
i have to find time to try
a lil busy this few days coz outside of gaming, I have to take a worklife client to court, FML
trying to figure out the court procedures
is it possible to put the pommel in the head's place? this is fun to smack people with but it's hard because i can only really hit people with it when halfswording
Just keep reverse gripping it lol 
Jk, I think there's some kind of value to change location or something like that
I mean if bitter was able to put a mace on an axe's hilt then you should probably be able to do the same
hmm
guys i have a mod idea
fire axe
and also a thing to spawn modded weapons in the abyss
replace the components
dingbat
do i just replace the head's model name with that of the pommel?
yes
precisely
Yeah One of my fav weapons so far of the pack 2!! @chilly oasis great work, the Dragonslayer once you understand the tempo, is so fun
how are people making theese modded weapons? tutorial link?

can you ADD a model to a weapon? my goedendag is missing a lil something
That glaive looks so sexy
Doesn't need to have a lot

His grip makes me angry
you don't want anyone else to grip it?
Wgat

Btw how hard is this?
Or how much time does it take*
the hardest / most time consuming thing after installing is typing / pasting the command to convert it into a loadout after you edit it
How long does it take
And how hard is that

about as fast as you can ctrl c + ctrl v
if you can edit a text file you can do it
if you can spare the 5 gb needed to install visual basic for some reason
idk why it needs that but i'll probably uninstall it after this method becomes outdated
What is visual basic even needed for

i have no clue, probably it uses some code from it
I think the weapon creation system will be limited for the sake of realism sadly
😔
Btw I think a sword pommel would look good
i wonder if i can just move the pommel to the top
Can't you do what the guy said
Mb
i have an idea
