Spawn an NPC with custom scale then possess it:

These are crashes that are not under my control and I can't do anything to fix them, at least at the moment.
- Your PC can't handle it.
- You are running too low on FPS.
- The game can't handle it.
- The game is not optimized to have a lot of entities.
- Physics can also crash the game.
Currently, certain clothing or armor combinations crash the game when they fall and hit the ground with enough force; this is a game bug.
There's a native function the mod uses to save your loadout. It only works in free mode, not in gauntlet. I'll implement a custom save later.
An invisible trigger around the map marks anyone who touches it as the loser. I'll try to remove it in a future update.
This is caused by the Strength Multiplier. If set too high (>4), your character may lose balance. Recommended value: 3–4.
Some antivirus software blocks the launcher. Add it to exclusions or disable real-time protection.
Conflicts with Mass Clown's trainer. Remove ue4ss.dll and dwmapi.dll from the game binaries folder (<Game Folder>\HalfSwordUE5\Binaries\Win64).
