[What This Is]

Allows the Chinese Officer's Sword to be Modified using Weapon Mods, all with plenty of custom texture-work and balance considered.

The TTW Version requires Tale of Two Wastelands and all of it's requirements.

Base game version requires the GunRunners Arsenal DLC.

Also has the Weapon Mods added to leveled lists the proper way, not via script. Just make sure to use a Bashed Patch. Seriously, it helps greatly.


[What This Does]


+Adds 3 Weapon Mods to the game that are used to upgrade the Chinese Officer's Sword. Improve it's Attack Speed, Maximum Condition, and Attack Damage.
+Adds the aforementioned items to a leveled list, mostly the same one you find some Gun-Runner Melee rarities in, like Ripper mods.
+Updates the existing mesh of the default Sword to use a custom environment map, makes for a nice shiny effect not present before.
+Includes a different texture set and mesh for every state of modability.


[Update History]

[Mesh Credits]

Using the stock meshes from TTW with texture sets applied for each variant.
That said, thanks to the TTW Team for their massive game expanding project.

The New Vegas version uses the meshes found hidden away in the game's BSA's.
That said, thanks to Bethesda/Obsidian for the meshes and such there.


[Texture Credits]


A lot of the textures were cobbled together from many sources, but also tweaked for better consistency, as well.
The Refurbished texture set is sourced from Zenith92's Pristine Chinese Sword project and resources on FO3.
A note on the latter, I had to tweak those textures as well, the canvas/texture size was irregular.
Also, I AI upscaled textures from FO3's Anchorage DLC using Upscayl, and tweaked the results to make them useful for the mods.
That said, thanks to Bethesda and Obsidian for their games, tools, and materials to make all this magic happen.


[Conclusion]

It's not much, but it does provide some extended usefulness for the Chinese Officer's Sword.
While it doesn't add fancy shocky effects like a certain variant, it does look and handle nice. Give it a try!


Thank you for reading. Enjoy, and have fun!
