Use files from the Iceborne chunk (ChunkG2 as of now.)

Wp_dats edited by the bugged 5.0.1 release are corrupted, please delete them and re-extract the files.

ABSOLUTELY REQUIRES USING STRACKER'S LOADER. WILL NOT WORK WITHOUT IT.


Requested by Asterisk to help make custom models easily selectable by people with limited modding experience.

FAQs


Q: Can other people see the changes online?
A: No. OTHER PEOPLE ONLINE WILL SEE NORMAL, UNCHANGED WEAPONS.

Q: Where do I find wp_dat and wp_dat_g files?
A: In chunk3. Updates might make it chunk5 or something. Chunk 7 for lance, dual blades, and hammer, chunk 5 for the other weapons. Chunk 10 for SnS, LS, and DB, Chunk 9 for the rest. ALWAYS USE WP_DAT AND WP_DAT_G FROM THE NEWEST POSSIBLE CHUNK TO AVOID CRASHES. THE TOOL SHOULD BE FUTURE-PROOF UNLESS CAPCOM CHANGES SOMETHING BIG IN THE WP_DAT FILES. This should no longer be necessary,  the tool should be able to update your wp_dat on its own. Iceborne means that you HAVE to use the newest chunk files.

Q: Why does the tool crash when I try to change the fourth KT weapons?
A: Because you used a chunk0 wp_dat or wp_dat_g.

Q: How can I get more custom models?
A: Make them, or download Asterisk or Ezekial's packs.

Q: How do I make more custom models?
A: I don't know. You're on your own.


Q: Can you make Armor and/or ammo tools?/Can I get one of the tools you've made hidden?
A: No. 

Known Issues:
Custom Models don't have functional sound. If you find a way to fix that, please let us know.
