RE4 Remake Knives for Hatchets

Want to feel a little more immersed in Leon's RE4 outfit? Perhaps you feel as if all of his knife training was for nothing if he chooses to use a hatchet anyways? Just want to relive the way you felt slashing through the Ganados?

Look no further, this mod is perfect for you.

You can replace DSO Agent Leon S. Kennedy's tactical hatchet with his trusty Combat Knife that has kept him company throughout Resident Evil 4. This mod contains several options.

The main option (Version 1. 0)

The mod will replace the starter tactical hatchet and its upgraded (blade) variation with the Combat Knife. In addition, The Commander's Mortal Edge, which you can get your hands on, is replaced with the Primal Knife.

The additional option (Version 1. 0)

With the main option being a requirement, there's a supplementary modification that replaces the upgraded version of the tactical hatchet with the Fighter's Knife. This model is accessible by upgrading the blade of your hatchet.

Version 1. 1

The mod has been reorganized with a few additions to now make it modular. You can now choose any knife to replace the hatchet and any knife to replace the mortal edge as you please. The only limitation to this was that the base tactical hatchet will have the same knife model for the upgraded and non-upgraded version. This is due to the models being contained in the same mesh file, meaning I'd have to, by hand, make every possible combination. I've opted to not do this since there was no interest in this (and I have little interest in doing this.) That being said, I did leave in the old file that allows you to have a combat knife as the starter hatchet and the fighter's knife as the upgrade model for it, given the work for that was already done in version 1. 0.

INSTALLATION

1. First, make sure you have installed Fluffy Mod Loader and configured it for RE9

2. Install REFramework, launch the game with it turned on, and enable Loose File Loading (Required for majority of RE9 Mods.)

3. Close the game, install the mod, place it in your mods folder, and enable it in the mod loader.

4. Enjoy!

Let me know if there are any issues, I'll do my best to address them appropriately. There's a few updates planned for later, I'm still learning RE Engine modding (this is my second mod), I want to replace the item icons respectively, and if possible change the item names and descriptions as well.
