- Permissions and credits
A model swap that replaces bits of the male avatar's MSF outfit and bandana to be Venom.
Mod as said replaces the MSF outfit and the avatar by:
Making the avatar heads, first hairstyles, MSF legs and the Oxygen tank invisible
Swapping the bandana tassels, MSF upper body and MSF arms/gloves with Venom's head, body and bionic arm.
The head is swapped over the bandana tassels as well as it's sim file replaces so Venom's ponytail will move and not be static.
So how to install?
To install, follow these instructions.
1. Download the newest Gztool that has fixed and and added Survive support. You can find it here: https://github.com/Atvaark/GzsTool/releases
2. Unpack the 00.dat inside the Zero folder. Since Konami did an update to the game, it now uses the 00.dat system. (To unpack just drag and drop the dat file on the gztool.exe)
3. Once that's unpacked, drop the assets folder from the mods rar file over the assets folder in the unpacked 00.dat folder. Say yes to anything if it asks you to replace anything.
4. Once you have done step 3. Open up the 00.dat.xml with notepad or notepad plus or whatever text eiditng software you use and add these lines in to it. They must be put anywhere in between where the lines for the filepaths start and end.

Known bugs:
Mostly not seen but the Oxygen tank was made invisible as at the moment it is impossible to fix an issue the tank has with Venom's head. For some reason a swap causes the tank's wire to stretch in to the unknown. So it has been made invisible to avoid this and cause it replaces the bandana no gas mask will show up in the "entering the dust" scene as well as when you enter the dust in gameplay.
P.S. Also as said all avatar heads and the first hairstyle is made invisible so be sure to equip the defualt MSF gear (aka the customisable one the game swaps you to as the intro fo the game has you in a one colour model set before changing them after you meet Reeve). If for whatever reason you don't have the Bandana unlocked cause you didn't play the beta event on PC. I would recommend using the Lost Heaven mod to select it. It's name is hat_m21.
