About this project
What does Bow Patch add?
Bow Patch
Requested by TjPVaya while I was working on my Zoom Button Patch.
This is a really simple mod that prevents the rendering of any off-hand item while aiming with a bow, as well as hiding minimap, coordinates, hotbar and chat.
Compatible with all modded ranged weapons that implements ItemBow, like all vanilla bows.
Compatibility
Now compatible with Combat Overhaul Fork!
If you experience animation bugs when enabling/disabling this mod, re-boot the game. I should be a problem of CO and how the game caches the files.
Feedback & Support
For sharing feedback, I have a sub-channel on the Official Discord #mods > Furio's Mods too!
