📋 About This Mod
I was a bit let down by DS3's moonlight greatsword no longer having its bright green glow so i decided i would try my best to bring that back with a little help from mauskal and iGP11. (However this is still a rough first pass so if anyone has any ideas for improvement id be happy to hear them)
Requirement: iGP11 + 7zip or WinRaR Installation: To install, just drag and drop the two texture files into the override folder created by iGP11.
A re-texture mod for the Moonlight Greatsword in Dark Souls III, aiming to make it look more like its appearance in earlier FromSoftware games. With 268 endorsements and 5,808 downloads, it's a niche cosmetic choice for fans of the classic design.
