2025-08-03

What is this mod?

This mod changes the mesh of the Longswords, Short swords, Greatswords

So they have more realistic handle and guard shape and size.

Discription

Due to the mod "Longsword Handle Resized" (https://www.nexusmods.com/baldursgate3/mods/50/)

was made in early access and author said it may have problems -and it seems, i have decided to make myself.

Nothing fancy tho. just a little adjust to the meshes.

Greatsword version is just with flat handle and longer guard.

+New version of model is here now. remade and fix. old version is at the old files tab.

+Fixed VFX(dip)

+New model for Short swords and Greatswords (Greatswords have two vanilla types)

Let me know if any shit happens

Installation

Manually download the mod and extract, inside there is a Date folder. put the Data folder to Main Game folder Baldurs Gate 3.

. GR2 files must go to: Data\Generated\Public\Shared\Assets\Weapons\Resources

And you can delete what you don't want.

Currently including:

Longsword +0, +1, +2

Short sword +0, +1, +2

Greatsword Type A +0, +1

Greatsword Type B +0, +1 (Greatsword has two versions of vanilla model so you can use both . GR2 files)

Find location ...\Baldurs Gate 3\Data\Generated\Public\Shared\Assets\Weapons\Resources

and delete files:

WPN_HUM_Longsword_A_0. GR2

WPN_HUM_Longsword_A_1. GR2

WPN_HUM_Longsword_A_2. GR2

... and any other weapons.

if the "Generated" folder is empty, you can delete it too.

Compatibility

Any mod that doesn't edit files below will work fine.

WPN_HUM_Longsword_A_0. GR2

WPN_HUM_Longsword_A_1. GR2

WPN_HUM_Longsword_A_2. GR2

... and any other weapons.

Future game patches will be compatible because this mod just changes models.
