Extra Weapon Slot?

[AnuErebus]

Basically wondering if there's a mod or something that adds a fifth weapon slot. I've started to get tired of switching (Or more importantly, forgetting to switch) from my lance to a bow for siege battles and would just like another slot to make my life a little easier. I'd prefer not to have to get rid of my sword/shield and thrown weapons aren't terribly appealing to me. I've done a little searching but I haven't come up with anything, so I was hoping someone might know if this is possible.

Not sure on a mod that adds a 5th weapon slot. There is however a text tweak that can help you out some found here: http://forums.taleworlds.com/index.php/topic,46514.0.html

This just puts the baggage inventory box that you get in field battles in the siege battles as well so if you do forget to switch you can change it there.

Edit- to be clear there is no actual box in the siege battles this just allows you to access your inventory by pressing the inventory key during the siege.

Edit 2.0- This is a very old tweak, so please remember to make a copy of the files incase it doesnt work.

I think a 5th slot is a good idea though. The ability to have something random like throwing knives on top of  my lance/cleaver/bow/arrows setup. Also, even though I use two handed, I'd still like a shield on my back.

Equipment slots are not modifiable.
Might be some hacky ways to get something that would work similar to another slot, but there's no way to add another real weapon slot...and no one has released any of the hacky workarounds that I'm aware of.

Ok, thanks for the replies. It's somewhat of a shame that equipments slots aren't modabble, but oh well, can't have everything. The inventory access looks promising. It's in some way better than just having another slot, and, since it appears to just be text editing, which is easy enough to do (Looks like strings are still the same) I'll give that one a shot.

Update: I'd just like to say that I adjusted the text to make the inventory accessible. Works like a charm, and ontop of not having to worry about forgetting my bow, I now have ample access to as many arrows as my inventory can hold (Not that I actually need that many). I highly recommend anyone who wants an additional slot or just more access to weapons follow those instructions.

Nice to know it still works, you don't need a ton of arrows in your inventory just drop the ones you have equipped in and take them back out then your quiver will be full again. (at least it works in Fire and Sword and used to work in WB)

I always thought it would be cool if horses had an inventory slot on which you could equip arrows, bows, thrown, or 1h weapons.

On one of my characters I have a spear, sword, shield and siege crossbow always equipped. The crossbow always comes pre-loaded with a bolt and you can fire a siege crossbow from horseback, just not reload it. Often useful for taking down stragglers. Then if I forget to swap some bolts in for my spear in a siege I can wait till one of my crossbowmen die and loot their bolts off the ground. Especially useful in siege defense where defender ammo regenerates.

Or you can use that bolt to shoot your own crossbowman in the head and then take his bolts...

But why do you have the spear in the first place if you're just going to drop it for bolts?  Or do you have to drop it for bolts?
