Unarmed Staff Casting - Staff Casting Animation Change
Version 1.0 - 10/07/2010
By: Orgolove
10/09/2010
I released an alternative version (version 1.0a) that also removes all staff models and changes every single staff animation into unarmed, including equip/unequip and autoattacks.
I disabled the equipping animations, removed all the models, and changed the normal autoattack animations to unarmed. This means that the normal staff attacks will also cause your character to do the unarmed "cast" animations (not punch). This should let you do a complete full-on unarmed mage without missing out on the staff stats or staff ranged attacks.

This is -not- the unannounced next "major" mod. It's something quick I cooked up due to a personal request. With that said, have fun!
