Thank you for installing my 1st replacement mod! A lot of love went into making it, and I hope that will be evident while you are using it.<3


WARNING

As with most mods, you will get banned if you use this online or have EAC enabled.
To ensure you don't get banned, please take the necessary steps. I recommend just using ModEngine2 and launching the game using the .exe it provides.
I take no responsibility if you end up getting banned while using this mod. This is common knowledge, and you have been warned.


GENERAL INFORMATION

-This mod will conflict with any mods that alter the following files; c8000.anibnd.dcx, c8000.chrbnd.dcx, and c8000_h.texbnd.dcx
-Basically - don't try to use it with any other Torrent mods and you should have no issues.
-The Reindeer can do EVERYTHING that Torrent can, since they share animations and information.
-This mod doesn't use regulation.bin for anything, so you only need to install it once.
-When using the Normal version, while running, rarely will the fullbody spark VFX persist outside of the affected animation. Just walk Torrent a step or two to turn it off.
It's something with a single specific animation that I cannot do anything about. I've tried, but it's such a small thing, you should be fine!


VERSION INFORMATION

Lite: For lower end PCs or anyone who wants less VFX. This version only uses the smoke VFX.

Normal: This version contains all VFX; Lightning, smoke, and all that good stuff.

***If you don't want any VFX at all, just delete the c8000.anibnd.dcx from the Lite version's chr folder! I can't say it's gonna look pretty.
