Why this mod?
Helldivers 2 is undeniably a very pretty game, and at times, can be just as cinematic as games such as Battlefield 1.
However, sadly, the game has no official photomode/cinematic tool. This mod aims to fix that (as closely as possible).
This mod also includes options to remove capes, data pads, and sample canisters from your helldiver.
If you want a mod with that functionality only, check out this mod.
Non-Reshade Version
Some models, especially modded ones, use Basic+ Textures. The datapad model also uses these textures, meaning that when using the Hide Datapad option, it may remove part of your armor too. In MOST cases this shouldn't be an issue, but if you notice this happening, that is the reason why. There isn't much I can do to combat this issue at this time.
