Song of Broken Pines - odachi

This is a port of a model from outside the game, obviously.

I did not create the model, credit for that goes to "Kai Xiang" for an awesome job!

I'm only responsible for porting it to this game, since it was free to download/use.

It replaces the following default model:

Ryomen Sukuna's Sword (odachi)

Tshould not conflict with any other mods, unless they specifically replace Ryomen Sukuna's Sword (odachi) 

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

note 1: in the "meshes" folder, you have another one called "longer variation"

you can try copying the files from that folder to the main one and overwrite, the odachi will be a bit longer, see what look you prefer best.

note 2: in the "textures" folder, you have others called "alternative textures" that you can try, overwriting what's in the main one, for a different look.

you can disable the blood stains by copying the .dds file from the "no blood stain" folder to the main textures folder.

you can modify the weapon's texture/color as you wish, by editing "song_of_broken_pines_ps-t0.dds"

you can also modify it's brightness / shiny effect / blood stain pattern by editing  "_ps-t1.dds" / "_ps-t2.dds" / "_ps-t5.dds" respectively.

I recommend paint.net or Photoshop, just make sure to overwrite the texture by saving as "song_of_broken_pines_ps-t0.dds with the BC7 sRGB setting

and  "_ps1.dds" / "_ps2.dds" / "_ps5.dds" save with BC7 Linear DX11 setting

If you observe any weird behavior / bugs, please report in the comments

I made this port more as an experiment, if anything.

I wanted to see if a more cartoony/anime-ish style of textures would fit the nioh aesthetic, because I have some other similar stuff that I would like to add,

so I first tested it on something simpler, to see how it looks in-game.

The result is not half-bad. Maybe the style of this model does not fit the samurai vibe, but whatever.

Take it or leave it.

This encourages me to do more cool mods.

If you have an idea for a mod, I can probably make it for you, privately.
