 v1 -
 
 Initial Release
 
 v1.01 -
 
 -Fixed error when using barehanded.
 -Fixed the weapon not showing an animation when its Weapon Type's SV motion is undefined.
 -Removed the Sprite_Weapon.prototype.initMembers overwrite function as there was no point to it
 and it made certain plugins incompatible.
 -WeaponSize is integrated but most likely not in working condition.
 Use at your discretion.
 
 v1.1 -
 
 - Added WeaponSound. It'll have the weapon play a sound whenever the actor attacks.
 - Added WeaponOffset. This allows you to set the position of the weapon.
 - WeaponSize actually works as it's supposed to now.
 - cleaned up the script a bit to make it easier to read.
 - Had no choice but to Overwrite Sprite_Weapon.prototype.update. Fingers crossed that didn't actually do anything negative.
 
 
  v1.11 hotfix -
 
 - Fixed the weapon position.
 
 v1.12 -
 
 - Changed the frame speed of the weapons so they match the default ones.
 - Added WeaponSpeed so you can define your own speed.
 
  v1.13 -
 
 - Made the weapons stay put when you set the offset.
 
 v1.14a -
 
 -Works with animated enemies now.
 -Rewrote the tags. Legacy spelling still works.
