Sekiro - Open Gate - odachi

There are three versions you can use, download whichever you like more, or all, since there is no conflict between them:

1) normal > replaces Usami Nagamitsu

2) corruption effect > replaces Bloodspider Blade

3) lightning effect > replaces Futsunomitama

This mod should not conflict with any other mods, unless they specifically replace Usami Nagamitsu / Bloodspider Blade / Futsunomitama

Requierements:

Nioh 2 mod enabler

Instructions:

1) unzip and place folder inside your mods folder from nioh2 directory

2) turn MOTION BLUR OFF  & DLSS OFF

3) make sure you enable mods, tapping F2 in-game / F10 to reload mods

This mod is set up to be somewhat customizable, here's how you do it:

> main mod folder (all versions) < you can remove the sheath if you so choose, just rename the .ini file:

sheath.ini   >>>   DISABLED sheath.ini

for normal version you can DISABLE accessory.ini

> "meshes" folder < here you have more options you can switch between, just copy the files from those folders to the main one, and overwrite!

1. average normal length blade / thicker / thinner

2. average long blade version / thicker / thinner

3. average longer blade version / thicker / thinner

> "textures" folder < you can download the additional "Open Gate textures pack" and customize the look, by copying the desired files from there and overwriting them in the mod's "textures" folder

IMPORTANT NOTE: "reflection accent <x material>" will work properly only when paired with the "true black <open gate>" textures variants

you have some images of the alternative textures here, I was too lazy to change them for the odachi and make more screenshots...

the textures are "compatible" since it's basically the same model, just with a different size

Extra note: if you want to do your own textures, you can:

- modify the weapon's texture/color by editing "black_mortal_blade_ps-t0.dds"

- modify it's reflection mask by editing "black_mortal_blade_ps-t1.dds"

- modify it's brightness mask by editing "black_mortal_blade_ps-t2.dds"

- modify it's blood stain pattern by editing "black_mortal_blade_ps-t5.dds"

* you can disable the blood stains by copying the ps-t5.dds file from the "no blood stains ps-t5" folder to the main textures folder.

I recommend paint.net (.dds files compatibility by default) or Photoshop/GIMP (you have to install .dds plug-in manually),

just make sure to overwrite/save the textures with the same name, and
