I love your designs, but I cannot get any of your iron and silver weapon reworks to work. When installed through Vortex it puts the files in \BepInEx\plugins\CustomMeshes\plugins\CustomMeshes and the textures in \BepInEx\plugins\CustomMeshes\plugins\CustomTextures which feels like a mistake. I tried to manually move the files to just \BepInEx\plugins\CustomMeshes\ and -Textures respectively but still that didn't work. What am I missing?
I agree with many other comments here: please make something, anything, to replace the hideous black metal shield. I was so dissapointed by the vanilla black metal designs in general that I dont even wanna use those ugly things.
judging by the guy/gal activity, I'm under the impression that he/she just lost interest and no longer supports the mods. At this point I'm tempted to learn how to fix it myself. sad-face
As the Gargoyle112 stated, this shield would be an excellent replacement for the ugly-ass vanilla Blackmetal Shield. But it seems that, after the files are properly renamed, it gets misaligned for that purpose. Any chance for us to get a propper BlackMetal Shield of Jormungandr?
You could probably just change the file and folder names to reference the blackmetal shield instead of the silver one. Like instead of "object_ShieldSilver_MainTex.png", you could rename it to "object_ShieldBlackmetal_MainTex.png". I was able to swap another mod around in this manner, but idk if it's the correct way to do it.
I think it partly worked. The texture of the shield is now black(ish) which - as I read in another thread - is correct now, but the mesh isn't exchanged. I think the new name of the folder (ShieldBlackmetal) is incorrect. Is there anyone who knows the correct name?
Partly worked for me renaming default.fbx. The shield is correct but doesn't have the right position on the player's arm. It is a bit off-axis. I suppose it is beause of the size difference between the original shields...
Yes, seems odd to me that there is no actual silver on the shield...I mean, it's a stretch but if you squint your eyes, the shield boss looks "somewhat" like tarnished silver...;)
I agree. This looks a lot more like the banded shield then the silver. How did you change the file to replace the banded? This is a beautiful design that must be in game.
Just a thought...For a silver shield, seems to have a complete lack of silver in the design. Probably just me, but I think it should have some silver on it, even if it's a small area, like the boss or the outer ring.
I do love and use all of your mods, so thank you for your efforts!

Thanks for the Mesh update!
Can you please do the same fix to your other shield mod Silver Shield of the Serpent
It clips with the left arm and is off-center on the back.
I tried to copy paste this new Mesh file on Silver Shield of the Serpent's, and it fixes the clipping but the texture is messed up.
Your armor and weapon mods make the game alot more enoyable!
Thank you

Can you tell me how to use your model for the BlackMetal shield?
Thanks in advance!
Edit: I want to exchange the BlackMetal ROUND shield
The texture of the shield is now black(ish) which - as I read in another thread - is correct now, but the mesh isn't exchanged.
I think the new name of the folder (ShieldBlackmetal) is incorrect. Is there anyone who knows the correct name?
This is my actual path:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Valheim\BepInEx\plugins\CustomMeshes\ShieldBlackmetal\default\model.fbx
Could someone please give me the right paths and filenames?
I'm going nuts...
BepInEx\plugins\CustomMeshes\ShieldBlackmetal\attach\default.fbx
I still have problems with trying to re-mesh/texture the blackmetal sword though, it comes out larger than dragonslayer from berserk
I suppose it is beause of the size difference between the original shields...
Update. I didnt dl the optional 2 files(Assimp Libraries) which required to import meshes. now its working. thanks for the fast reply.
There should be a folder called "attach" at this path:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Valheim\BepInEx\plugins\CustomMeshes\ShieldSilver\attach
In the "attach" folder, ensure you have the model.fbx file
Also make sure you have BepinEx and the optional files installed.
