[Mod Idea] Is this even possible...? Changing Lord Darryn's Voulge's visual appearance but keeping the visual effects?

[Cyrus_Blackfeather]

Hey guys, 

 

So... This is a mod idea I've had since I saw the new 2H axe Amra in the Beta Branch, and I was wondering if such a thing would even be possible. Basically, I'd like to take Amra's weapon model, replace the Lord Darryn's Voulge base model with it, while overlaying all of the blue lightning visual effects of the LDV over it. 

 

Problem is, I'm pretty sure this would be functionally impossible. But I'd love to be proven wrong.

Alright, dropped another request. I know you guys are waiting for the patch to drop before continuing though.

Yes, you can, you need to check the item.gamedatabundle and the two objects.

In the EquippableComponent of the LVD item you need to change the field:

"AppearancePiece": {
                "ModelVisualDataPath": "prefabs/items/appearance/weapons/poleaxe/a_poleaxe05.assett"
},

with the model of the Amra weapon.

For the blue effect it depends, LDV doesn't seem to have something related to that, but can be an effect you get from upgrade or from another feature of the weapon.
Just try to only swap the model of the weapon and see if you get what you want

It's probably an effect from the Static Thunder upgrade, so hopefully that carries over. I've decided to let the mod request guys have a look at it. I do think it'll be cool if it works though! Even if it wouldn't exactly be a 'Voulge' at that point. I could rename it to "Lord Darryn's Axe" but then the lore entry would have to be changed too.

Are the mod request guys still active? I'm curious if this is possible as well.
