Lavina Retexture from Trophy

Description

I spent a long time looking for a mod that would allow removing the built-in sight from the unique Trophy rifle, simply because I absolutely love its look (with those iconic yellow tapes) compared to the vanilla black Lavina. However, most mods that try to achieve this often conflict with other weapon overhauls or cause bugs.

Since the technical stats of the standard Lavina and the unique Trophy are completely identical in the game code, I decided to take a cleaner path. I gave Skif an exclusive Lavina that keeps its vanilla properties (allowing you to attach any standard scopes like PSO-4), but features the unique Trophy textured skin.

Installation instructions

To Install:

Extract the chosen .pak file and drop it into your S. T. A. L. K. E. R. 2 mod directory:

Stalker2\Content\Paks~mods\ (Create the ~mods folder manually if it doesn't exist).

To Uninstall:

Simply delete the .pak file from the folder at any time. It is completely safe and won't affect your save files.

Main features

This lightweight mod swaps the standard visual appearance of the AS Lavina with the unique Trophy skin, completely free of any pre-installed rails or built-in collimator sights.

DOWNLOAD ONLY ONE FILE:

• "Only 3D" version — Changes only the weapon model/texture in the main character's hands. In the inventory, trade menus, and upgrade screens, the rifle will still retain its vanilla black icon.

• "3D & 2D" version — Changes both the 3D model in your hands and the 2D icon in the inventory, upgrade menus, and trading screens.

This mod was built using the native Unreal Engine {bpatch} structural system. It is fully compatible with almost any mod, unless it drastically modifies the base weapon data configs. If you are using any popular mods that overhaul inventory UI or item icons, it is highly recommended to use the "Only 3D" version to avoid any visual interface conflicts.

Requirements

No special requirements. Works on vanilla game.
