Well, to start off, I'm a lord of the rings fan. I'm also an elves fan in BG II. Well, I thought to myself, 'Could I combine the two? Add the cosmetics of the LotR elves (from the movies) to the BG II elves?

I came to the conclusion that the armour is wayyy too much effort, even if it was pssible. So, while browsing through the swords, I saw the scimitar and the katana in a different light. It kind of looks like the two-handed 3rd age elf sword.

That lead me to thinking about making a scimitar look the same, but keep it two handed, to go with the lotr theme.

Could I do that? Is it possible to take a one-handed item and make it two handed with some item editor such as DLTCEP? Really, the question is, well, here's the deal:

Take a two handed weapon and equip it. Most likely a two-handed sword. I want the scimitar/katana to take it's place. Making the character weild the katana/scimitar with two hands.

Problem is, you can make the item take up the two hand "slots", but the animations will still be one handed. AFAIK, there has yet to be a set of actual custom animations for the game.

You could check if any of the IWD or Planescape animations have what you're looking for. I don't personally know how, but I know that there has been some success in moving animations across IE games.
