Before you actually launch the mod, none of it is running whatsoever. So your dual-wielder isn't holding two weapons because they don't have any skills the game recognizes, and a dual-wield skill is required to hold two weapons. This also means the modded class names won't show until you've launched the mod.

I've considered switching Paths to be a 'bounce mod', where you launch the mod and it kicks you back to the menu, but the mod is then 'running'. From what I remember, bounce mods aren't as reliable for multiplayer? It's been a long time since I made that change. It was a bounce mod originally.

I may change it someday. I just don't want to change it then find out a bunch of other problems.

And I think changing it would require everyone to make new characters, or port their characters over, which always sucks.
