dual wield isnt interesting enough ... just for light+mining ... and theres a mining helm ...
Dude, the light thing was an example. Dualwield can be used for more things.
i know ...
but there are'nt many things it is good for ...
light + mining >> mining helm
faster mining/digging/..... >> theres also an mod that does that ...
and thats all ... or ?
@NetBlitzer
is that pro or contra ?
Digging and building: If you are trying to place a new wall around a river and dont want to have to keep swapping between ur diamond pickaxe and whatever it is ur trying to mine...
Ploughing and planting: Lets you plough a plot of grass/dirt and plant seeds immediately after
Adding insult to injury: Carry around a diamond sword and flint/steel to attack mobs and set them on fire
Pure building: Sometimes a stack of 64 isnt enough... Somtimes I need 100+ blocks, dual weilding will make that easier thats for sure...
1st ... ehm ... thers an quickbar ... with 9 slots ...
2nd:
it could be hard to mod this ... cause: you have to differentiate "now left hand, now right hand"
3rd:

i dont understand what you mean ... sry ...

i have to loled about reading that ... could be interesting if you want to plant a area 100x100 blocks ...
> think about seeds + flint&steel => instant burning up your seeds ... (left or right hand conflickt cause of both right-click)

get shockahs minerals mod -> firestone-sword

9 x 64 blocks .... you can fill the whole quickbar ... and you can place blocks very fast so...
and where do you want to fill the slot for the second hand ?
conflicts between both hands:
torch + pickaxe -> OMG i found diamond -> holding left klick hits with both hands -> torch does lasthit argh ... diamond destroyed ...
Hmmm, a possibility of something you could do with duel wield is EPIC SWORD BATTLE! Two diamond swords, one dead undead army >:biggrin.gif: Or for building faster. Or doing everything faster. Good idea.

Judging by what you said you didnt understand at all what I was refering to save the sword/flint combo, even then I think it was just by luck...
Digging and Building, say you are in an underwater base and need to expand a little and have torches on the ground, instead of breaking stone, clicking a number, dropping stone farther and potentially missing as the water starts to flood into your house you can break stone and immediately after its broken place a new block because u have it ready... ----> [] in a fraction of a second, letting no water get through and potentially destroying much-needed torches
Ploughing and Planting, quick question. How the HELL did you get flint and steel out of this? use a diamond plough to till a grass/dirt tile and have seeds in the other hand planting it immediately after the land is ploughed, no constantly swapping back and fourth between the two
Pure Building, just because you are content with tiny 30x30x4 houses doesnt mean everyone else is... Haven't you seen some of the grand castles taking up more than some 500x500x20 squares? How many blocks is that again? About 40k just for the wall going 500 on all 4 sides and then 20 blocks up? Idk my math is off it's late and I'm tired... Either way its a hell of a lot more than 64x9 (576) if you had a sub-bar underneath each of the 9 bars to represent the left hand you can get 1152 blocks instead of 576, thats a LOT of time saved swapping out invintories.
So you wake up on a beach one day, and remember NOTHING. (Except your degree teachings in Engineering, Wilderness Survival, Metal work, Physics, Tech, Psychology, History, Dynamics, and Blocks.) You mine and build and survive for years and years.
Like to be able to hold a torch on your left (with torchlight mod) and a pick in your other hand and be able to walk with the light and mine stuff???

Like DOUBLE PICK ACTION!!!!!
I'd like to hear people whining about slow mining then!
It is not the weapon that makes the warrior, but the warrior that makes the weapon.

I think thats already made
theres a link to it in your sif
Guy who made it won't release it publicly yet, he's using it with his Mayan temple mod
