📋 About This Mod
TYPE 3 WEAPONS - TEXTURE EDIT
Slight edits made to the textures of Type 3 Sword, Type 3 Blade, & Type 3 Lance and upscaled them as well.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The white part of these weapons (the handles) are edited to look cleaner and less murky. Plus a few small tweaks to how the blades shine. Also reduced the ''yellowness'' of the weapons.
The textures and 3D model for the Type 3 Fists were found within the game files (an HD version of this weapon).
I've made it so you can play and use the Type 3 Fists with these nice textures.

UPDATE
Added the black & white recolor version of the weapons

Thank you to stdavan for requesting this mod. I had fun making these.
Unfortunately the Type 3 Blade remains misaligned to its pod halo.
I've tried, but none of them worked and my knowledge for this is very limited.

Let me know if you encounter any problems while using this mod.

A texture edit for Type 3 Weapons, upscaling and refining the original textures for a cleaner look. With 48 endorsements and 786 downloads, it's a niche cosmetic improvement for players who want sharper weapon visuals. Last updated June 2023, so it may not be compatible with the latest game version.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Simple texture upgrade—makes Type 3 Weapons look sharper without changing gameplay
- Small but active community (48 endorsements, 786 downloads) shows it's appreciated
- Lightweight mod—just texture files, won't bloat your load order
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated June 2023—may not work with the latest game patches
- No screenshots or detailed previews in the description, so you're flying blind
- Only affects Type 3 Weapons—if you don't use that mod, this is useless
For players who already use Type 3 Weapons and want a quick visual polish. Skip if you're not using that weapon mod or if you're on a newer game version where compatibility is uncertain.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have the original Type 3 Weapons mod installed first, or these textures won't have anything to replace.
- If you're using a mod manager, let it handle the file overwrite to avoid conflicts with other texture mods.
- Check the mod's comments section for any user reports about compatibility with the latest game version before installing.
