About this mod

Enhances the charge attack charging animations and impacts in order to demonstrate the true power of the Greatsword. DOES NOT AFFECT DAMAGE. Since it uses efx already found within the game, it retains the vanilla feel while giving GS moves some more oomph, but not being over the top. Multiple versions available.

Requirements
Permissions and credits
Originally based off of StageNRyu's mod for base world (see credits), I have added many more effects to enhance just about every move in the moveset. Most are efx from monsters (as well as some generic thump efx used by other weapons), and have been relocated and renamed in order to ensure compatibility with mods that may alter these efx. Some, however, have been edited and are now considered "custom," so please contact me first before using any of the efx in this mod just to be safe. Feel free to dm me (either here on Nexus or on Discord @Shulk972, faster response with Discord) if you are interested in creating a custom version of this for yourself (I will not do this for you, and do not distribute or post to Nexus without my permission) or you have suggestions for alternate versions. Updates on progress on versions can be found in the sticky in the discussion tab. 

Remember to endorse if you're enjoying this mod. Only takes 1 click :) 

Please give me any and all feedback you have about my mods. You can either post a comment here or dm me. Alternatively, check the posts for the "Community Sticky" I will sometimes have up for gathering specific community opinions. Thanks in advance!

Available versions:
Definitive - Complete (My original vision for this mod. Gives charging animations and impacts extra oomph.) (Represented by ENHANCED gifs on images page)
Definitive - Impacts Only (Requested by users. Same as the Definitive - Complete, but doesn't touch the charging animations.)
Hybrid - Definitive slams with Lite charging efx (For those who love the big slams of the Definitive version, but wish the charging animations weren't quite so intense.)
Lite - Complete (Requested by users. A toned down version of Definitive - Complete for those who still want more oomph out of their greatsword efx, but think the Definitive is a bit much. Essentially backs up all efx by one level. THIS IS STILL AN INCREASE IN THE INTENSITY OF EFFECTS COMPARED TO VANILLA)
Lite - Impacts Only (Figured users would want it. Lite version, but only affects the impacts efx, ignoring the charging animations.)

Make sure to download Stracker's Loader. This mod, and most others, simply do not work without it because Iceborne won't load them.

Installation (same as all MHW mods):
1. download file (duh)
2. extract
3. place nativePC folder in the same location as MonsterHunterWorld.exe 

Changelog:
v1.0.1 - renamed original file to Enhanced GS EFX Definitive - Complete, and added Definitive - Impacts Only, Lite - Complete, and Lite - Impacts Only versions
v1.0.0 - It's go time, baby
*key - n.n.X is bug fix/clerical, n.X.n is feature-based, X.n.n is massive overhaul
