📋 About This Mod
A longsword mod that adds visual, sound effects and handle retexture to the shara ishvalda longsword (Radiant Flow).
How To install the mod
Make sure to download the required mod I have listed on "ONLY THE EFX MAIN FILES" to be less confusing.
Unzip the rar file
copy and paste the contents of the mod file into the nativePC folder
MAKE SURE TO RESTART YOUR GAME TO MAKE THE MOD WORK.
For anyone who installed the EFX only main files, just rename all the swo017 folder and all of the swo017 files inside it to your weapon ID of choice.
Example: swo001.evwp , swo001
This is the weapon ID list, for all of the people who downloaded the EFX only main files.
The weapon being hidden while sheathed is a concept since it's meant to be a sword made of water, that materializes, if you look carefully at the sword when you unsheath the weapon in battle the water is enveloping the sword, but I did add a optional file for the people who likes see the sword while sheathed.
If you downloaded the optional files just do the same and overwrite the files.
How to uninstall the mod
delete the following files/folder from the nativePC.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid community backing with 464 endorsements and over 27k downloads.
- Gives the Radiant Flow a fresh water-themed look that stands out.
- Simple cosmetic swap—no gameplay changes, so it won't break your build.
⚠️ Cons
- Only affects the Shara Ishvalda longsword, so if you don't use that weapon, this mod is useless.
- Last updated in 2021, so it might not be compatible with the latest game patches or other mods.
- Cosmetic only—if you're looking for new stats or moves, this isn't it.
For Monster Hunter: World players who main the longsword and want a stylish water-themed makeover for the Radiant Flow. If you're a completionist who likes collecting weapon skins, this is a nice addition. Skip it if you don't use that specific weapon or prefer gameplay-altering mods.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have the Shara Ishvalda longsword unlocked in-game to see the mod's effect.
- If you're using a mod manager like Vortex, install this mod through it to avoid manual file conflicts.
- Check if the mod requires the latest version of the game—if you're on an older patch, it might not work.
