About this mod

I rebalanced the item weights of the weaponr and armor be a little less insane. I've assumed a 1lb to 1 unit value which may or not be right but thats what it is. Items may weigh more than what they would in real life but imho its a little better.

I am not a fan of super heavy weapons.

By this I mean a sword weighing 10 times more than a dagger. I've held both in real life and they don't weigh 10 times more.

While this is a game it is still not ideal.

Arrows seemed actually ok, though they seem to align better with the idea that 1 = 1kg with 0.1 kg being the weight of a good longbow arrow. 

I have scaled down weapons to the following

However material type matters so I have also scaled by type:
