Do you want to make your weapons visible while riding a mount?

Title says it. I think it's a pitty that we cannot see our weapons and shield while we are on our horse, so what do you say, it'd only make sense.

    If sheathing them while mounted isn't an option I'd also be for having them in a wrap that is fastened behind the saddle.

    No because a staff or a 2H would pierce the horse's back while riding. Wouldn't object to a toggle option though, for those that want it.

    There's an addon that can make the weaps visible while riding btw if you want it now OP.

    Thanks for the AddOn, didn't even realize I should look for it first. Stupid me.

    I've somehow managed a couple times to have my staff on my back while riding a mount and I am sure it didn't go through the horse, but went completely fine down the side. But yeah, clipping would be an issue.

    It's just one more thing to clip and look stupid. If there was a sheath on the saddle that your weapon would appear in that would be okay.

    They have changed something. I now see a staff on my riding witch, this is new.

    I noticed that you use to be able to have your weapon displayed on your mount when you did the following:

    Mount your horse
    go to game options-gameplay-and cycle the auto hide helmet.

    For whatever reasons that use to work for me... haven't tried it recently.

    Pretty sure the reason they're invisible right now is because most of them would clip into the horses.

    If they managed to make 2hs not stick into the horses back then it's fine. It would also be quite fun to have your both sets of weapons show on you, and not just the one you're currently using? For example if you're using dual wield and bow, while you fight with dual wield you also have your bow shown on your back etc.

    No because it can create clipping issues and I do not consider it a high priority use of precious development time. There are so many real issues that need to be resolved in the game (stamina builds are still bad, werewolves remain a bad joke, and so on) I'd rather they skip this one.

    I hit disagree since you didn't give me the option to say I don't care.

    I dont really care one way or the other.

    Could be an option like the hide helmet for those that want it.

    I don't see why not.

    There are already clipping issues in place, adding another one won't do no harm. I probably wouldn't really notice.

    Only times I notice weapons being a hindrance for some odd reason, is when they're unsheathed while I'm out of combat, which is where I picked up the bad habit of sheathing my weapons after every encounter...

    While riding horse with visible weapons, I have not seen any clipping issues yet with 2hand weapons, staves, and shields. I did see clipping with 1hand weapons like swords though.

    If you read how the add-on works, you'll know why they don't show. I think it's a bug.

    If you /reloadui your weapon will become visible, the invisible weapon while mounted is a glitch.
