📋 About This Mod
Disclaimers! Please Read!
Ray Tracing must be turned off! Using any mods that edit models like this one, with Ray Tracing on, will crash the game! There is no fix for this as what would have to change is out of my control: either Ray Tracing itself or the very tools we modders use for FromSoftware titles have to change.
The item description for the helm says, The visor is broken and can no longer be lowered. So, while there are lore reasons for it being up, it's a nice idea to have it be lowered. Because it is designed that way, I positioned the visor as best I could so that our character can still "see", and you can more clearly observe that the visor is heavily damaged and dented. I also had to avoid clipping issues.
I use REVENANT ReShade, specifically the Lush version with a couple tweaks of my own. This is reflected in the screenshots I took for this mod, so keep in mind that it may look differently for you if you do not use a ReShade!
I also use Texture Improvement, specifically the 4K textures. This is, again, reflected in the screenshots and so your game/recolors may look different than mine!
DO NOT attempt to play the game online while using any mods or you will be banned! Download Anti-cheat toggler and offline launcher to circumvent EAC, or if you use Mod Engine 2 then that program will automatically disable it.
There is a way to make the model show up on co-op partners, NPCs and the Mimic Tear. Within the parts folder there is a file called a DCX File. All you need to do is make a copy and add "_l" directly before the period in the DCX file name. That's an underscore and lowercase L. So, you'd change hd_m_1280.partsbnd into hd_m_1280_l.partsbnd. Continuing the example: if you started with 1 DCX file, you'll end with 2. This way the mod shows up on you and your co-op partner/NPC/Mimic Tear.
