About time Sekiro became eye candy (っ˘ω˘ς )

You can find turnarounds and comparison pictures at the end of the Images tab.

— Finally posted the minor September update, it's been done for a long time but I held off cause it wasn't perfect (in-game it's fine). —
— If you're looking for the old backswords version that I removed, here is the dropbox link: Backswords v1.2.2 —
— (Download the "01 - Main File" from Nexus first, then replace files with the dropbox version. If you only want the swords, download this instead.) —


RELEVANT NOTES:
  • The param folder only includes VFX changes so that the Living Force, Divine Confetti, and other weapon trails are longer. Please look in the Articles tab for how to merge my param with other mods. Please note that the extended VFX looks better on the Styled Handachi than it does on the Edited Kusabimaru; that's why the latter doesn't include the VFX edits.
  • fc_m_0200.partsbnd.dcx file is 100% customizable! Use any FC file you want (as long as it's named correctly).
  • There is also some blood imbalance between the upper body and the pants, wherein the upper body has intense blood splatters.

KNOWN INCOMPATIBILITIES:

  • The textures in this mod breaks if you're using the Glow and Translucent Materials mod! Use buddy97's version instead which fixes these bugs: MTD 1.06.
  • If you're using an older version of Sekiro, also download MTD 1.06 to fix texture issues. Install this by making a "mtd" folder in your "mods" folder and then put the allmaterialbnd.mtdbnd.dcx file inside the "mtd" folder.

Installation:
  • You need to have Sekiro Mod Engine installed first.
  • Drag and drop the files in the "parts" folder of my mod into your \Sekiro\mods\parts directory. If you don't have a "parts" folder in "mods", simply make a new folder and name it "parts". Then put my mod files into the "parts" folder.
  • For the file inside the "param" folder, drag and drop the "param" folder inside your \Sekiro\mods\ directory. If you already have a gameparam.parambnd.dcx inside your \param\gameparam folder, please go to the Articles tab to learn how to merge my gameparam with the one you have.
  • (Optional) You may then download & install optional files to customize your Hunk Mod experience, such as the hairless and Frayed Hat versions.

Credits:
Thanks to Yacine BRINIS from Sketchfab for their male body model, without it as a base, I couldn't have made this mod. 
Thanks to hanka21 for the hair and hair strands from their Ghost of Ashina mod.
Thanks to DKGrayfox87 for the goatee texture in their Bearded Sekiro mod.
Thanks to ApolloHoo for their Tengu 01 and Tengu 06 model from Various Tengu Models which I used as a base.

Final Thoughts:
I've spent around 200 hours or more over the last 8 months on this mod. To be honest I don't really like it anymore but that's okay. I'm working on 2 other mods but they probably won't come out for another 6 months at least. But all in all, thank you to everyone who downloaded the mod and endorsed! And I love all the comments, y'all are so silly and some of us really be seeing eye to eye hehe. I'm glad to be feeding my fellow LGBT+ besties.

Here is the final to-do list for the mod. I don't really mod anymore, but here's what I hope to complete if I come back to further polish the mod:
  • Improve the gloss effect for the muscles in the Hairless Version normal map
  • Fix the weird ring around the pupils of the Enfeebled model
  • Fix the beard misalignment on the face

Do you play LMTSR? I have a guide that lists all boss locations, how to reach them, what they drop, guide on all prosthetic tools, guide on the 5 events, & more.
You can check out my guide here:
 LMTSR Boss List v1


ABOUT PERMISSIONS:

As long as you credit me, it's okay. No need to ask me for permission. But if you plan on using the muscular body, remember to follow Sketchfab's crediting guidelines for Standard Use License since I used Yacine BRINIS' model as a base.

If you’re going to use the assets that are from the mod authors I credited, remember to ask them for their permission.

(Clarification on what "my" assets are for those who need to know: muscular body and body_a/body_n textures, right hand glove, prosthetic arm edits, uncut arm / prosthetic hand only arm, cut arm, fc_m_0000 belt, Kusabimaru edits, Styled Handachi, straw hat + straps, torso strings. There's probably more in there but I don't really care lol. Happy modding!)
