Spineless Skalda Elytra

(something something arthropods don't have spines anyway because they're invertebrates)

This mod removes the tail from the Skalda Elytra (waist armor), leaving only a bit at the back where it used to be. The default option replaces the normal type 1 Skalda Elytra (pl245), and ONLY includes the mesh file. There are also options for the Spio set (also pl245, but for type 2), as well as for the type 1 and 2 versions of the Guild Cross set (pl279), all of which contain the full armor set (I don't know why you'd need the type 1 Guild Cross version since type 1 hunters have access to Skalda by default, but it's there if you need it I guess?). This mod does not contain the 4K textures found in the /streaming folder; feel free to grab those from here or extract them yourself, but I won't be bothering with them because they take up a lot of space.

Intended for use with Fluffy Manager 5000. Just plop the .rar into the "\Fluffy Manager 5000\Games\MHRISE\" folder like you would for any other mod using that program. It should also work with FirstNatives, following the same steps as usual for that as well.

If you want to replace a different armor set, just look up its model ID here (should be the number preceded by "pl"; for example, Skalda/Spio is "pl245" by default, while Guild Cross is "pl279" by default) and then replace the relevant numbers in the folder names and filenames. The elytra's physics should work fine without any additional mods, but if you swap it to a set that has no physics by default just install Dytser's Physics Enabler first.
