A small-frame sword & shield mod I want to test a bit before making final version. You instantly win when you make a solid hit to opponent's torso or neck/head (weak hits won't do anything because the effective blade is hidden inside the visible blade). There's also points and fracture on. Sword and shield are pretty fat to minimize the chance of things clipping through. I attached a few replays.

I plan to modify points and joint strengths; I didn't do any of that with this test version. And maybe I discover something else in the process of playing it with other people.
Great mod wip! thoroughly enjoyed it

Thanks guys. And very cool vid matarika :V

I think I'm finished with it. Here's the list of changes:
  • Increased hip & ankle strengths
  • Increased a bunch of joint velocities
  • Reduced fracture points so they work with overall point threshold
  • Reduced friction on swords and shields
  • Made shields smaller
  • Increased turn frames from 12 to 14
  • Reduced match frames
  • Fixed joints/body-parts disappearing when hit with a sword

Hopefully now it's more fun. Try it out ;)
