📋 About This Mod

“It was much too big to be called a sword. Massive, thick, heavy, and too crude. Indeed, it was a slab of iron.”

My take on the famous Dragon Slayer from Kentarou Miura's Berserk. Includes replacement files for all current Greatswords. For post-Iceborne.

日本語の説明はこの下です。

- Fixed missing emblem files. Sorry about that.

- Added a new version using model and texture from that Berserk game. Rip by Ageha Workshop. It's probably the same source as Gatomiau's mod.

Notes

:

- Included batch files to copy the files to all current weapon folders. Makes it much easier to handle.

- Currently do not seem to be able to disable weapon-specific effects anymore, such as Wyvern Ignition or tints on elemental weapons.

- Parts optional is to hide the monster skin/parts that are attached to weapons.

- More screenshots at old link here.

Installation:

1. Unzip the main archive (with folders) into Steam\Steamapps\common\Monster Hunter World\

2. Ensure you have "mod_wp_*" folder (needed for textures) and "Emblem" folder (needed to hide the Emblem)

3. Unzip the optionals of your choosing into the same location (overwrite).

4. Run the batch file "override_all.bat", and if you downloaded the parts optional, "hide_all.bat" inside the parts folder.

5. You can delete weapon folders that you don't need. I don't know which folders are which weapons, but you can experiment by removing folders and checking the results in-game. Note that unlike before Iceborne, it seems that sometimes removing/changing folders does not always update in realtime.

Uninstallation:

If you want to revert to the original, simply delete the mod files in these folders:

Credits:

I would like to emphasize that none of this would've been possible without the hard work of the people listed here.

- Originally a model by an anonymous Japanese Pangya mod author from over ten years ago, I've heavily modified and updated it to put in various games.

- During the Skyrim days, I borrowed parts of texture from Phate3's Dragonslayer.

- All modding contributors, especially the ones who are figuring out how to get into the new chunk archives

- AsteriskAmpersand for various things

- Vuze for WorldChunkTool, and Jodo for MHWNoChunk

- daemon1's raw texture converter (correct offset values are usually around 100 to 118)
