PADORU PADORU

XAYAZA001 HAS MADE A MOD TO MAKE HER SING PADORU, GET IT!

Vote for the next PADORU here! (Decided)

https://www.strawpoll.me/19667666

Winner is Jeanne Alter, I'll release her in a big update eventually with Voices changes for all 3 of them. Still a while to go before I have time to focus on them though.

Replaces the Snowman Set with chibi Santa Nero or Santa Alter, UMU!

Also Replaces the Ladybug weapon with either Aestus Estus (Nero's Weapon) or Excalibur Morgan.

Your chibi emperor and King can even be recoloured!

As always I appreciate feedback and comments to improve my mods.

To install, Just copy the nativePC file into Steam\SteamApps\common\Monster Hunter World.

CHOOSING YOUR PADORU:

-Head to nativePC\otomo\equip to choose which Padoru you want to use. Just delete ot043 ,  make a copy of the folder of your choice and rename it to ot043.

CHOOSING YOUR WEAPON:

-Head to nativePC\otomo\wp to choose which weapon you want to use. Just delete ot_we030 ,  make a copy of the folder of your choice and rename it to ot_we030.

DIFFERENT ARMOUR SETS AND WEAPONS:

Choose your armour and replace the name ot043 for armour and ot_we030 for the weapon with your choice. Try to pick an armour set that hides the palico model, such as megaman for example otherwise the cat parts will poke out.

The Santa Alter was created by me by editing Jinster's Nero.

Eurobeat Padoru is by Turbo, check him out!

Thanks to AsteriskAmpersand for the tools used to make this mod.
