Takes iconic buster sword to a new level.
This mod allow to have Materia as Animated Meshes or Fx., adding a new Buster Sword.
in ESPFE version now.

my permission:

• Thanks to johnskyrim for the basic mod and consent.
• Another big thanks goes to saltmaxwellpshk for directing me to a guide on what to do, and having patience.
  

this is my first actual mod. I changed a small part of the meshes, added some texture and animation.

maybe it can be insignificant as it may seem, for almost 3 weeks now, for every step taken, another problem has arisen,
and getting it to work was quite stressful. but finally here is the satisfaction.

obviously inspired by FF7 game from SquareEnix, and other magical spheres of the type, I hope you like it.
i did a all-in-one Fomod to help with your preferences.


sorry for video quality but at moment this is what it can render.

Final Fantasy VII Remake Buster Sword SE by  johnskyrim

• you can still use his .esp and keep the buster sword of the base mod as it is without problems,
  

the .esp of Johnskyrim and mine do not conflict, so you can have them both.

    Animated Meshes version:

• for some reasons there has remained a small inconvenience, when you leave the weapon.
  as in the screenshot on the bridge, the weapon falls in front of us as normal, but when on the ground, the weapon is left far away, where I don't know (in a test, later, turning off the collisions to look around, I found one beyond the walls of the house).I hope to fix this boring inconvenience, if maybe someone who can tell me how ...

    Materia Fx version:

• in the choice of having 2 identical Materia, I slightly changed a few shades of the color in
  the layers of the second Materia, so as to make them unique in any case, instead of a "copy-paste"
• in this version I managed somehow to make the collision work better when drop weapon, but it remains a little raised in the air from the ground, but at least now it is where it is left. fixed in v2.2.
