This new version of the mod makes the shotgun way too small in Lara's inventory wheel and applies to all 3 games instead of just TR3; honestly just preferred the older version that made the TR3 shotgun darker :/
Do you mean while in HD mode? If you temporarily rename the outfit file in the 1 > ITEMS folder, the game won't find it and it will reveal a jankey textured OG Lara model that was hiding underneath.
There are many mods for old game that have updated model, for weapons too, and .phd files work the same in original game and in old version you see in Remaster when pressing start. I used the one called "FMV Lara + Inventory overhaul", you can find it and updated version on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NpVENmCRlWY this has weapons updated too, not just her model.
What about making different skin for TR1/2 version of this? Doesn't need a lot of editing, just lighter and with brownish wooden handle... I know the game loads textures from different folders for each game.
Too bad... I think they look very funny, the overall color of the metal is too dark compared to original game and the screws placement/gripstyle/ and fake shell holder do not please me at all ( it looks off ) this is Why I prefer replacing them with the TR3 one
I see you updated the mod ! Consider keeping the " Retexturing only " file for original remaster model for anyone who would enjoy it like that without a new weapon model.
I copy pasted the files in the right folders and the shotgun shows up alright in my inventory but not on Lara. The original Mossberg model shows up on her back.
All of the 7 files from your mod are copied for sure, but I don't see HOLSTER_SHOTGUN in it. This file is only in my Folder "1". I tried duplicating & copying this one in the same place of folder "2" and "3" but to no avail.
I have the same issue. The model is fine in the Inventory and when on the ground but when in game either holstered or drawn the model is still the Mossberg 500. There is no HOLSTER_SHOTGUN file. There is only SHOTGUN_ITEM.TRM and SHOTGUN_OPTION.TRM in the archive. Installed with Vortex btw rather than manually copying.
I noticed that ALL the shotgun skins are too dark. Including fan ones. Thanks DarkLegendAoD for good skin and TommyDown for uploading it separately, I edited it in Photoshop further, making it lighter (Curves tool), and then put more reddish wood on hands, and now have this for TR1 shotty. If people want a lighter version with wooden grip I can upload file here as a variant if you give the permission.

Would you by any chance consider doing something similar with TR3's grenade launcher ? If you look at the original graphics it's supposed to have a barrel but in the modern graphics they just reused the TR2 model, which doesn't feature a barrel.

But as the game is so smooth and high fps they don't really notice that much.
The remaster texture of the shotgun wasn't satisfying me anyway, so I prefer this one over it !
If DarkLegendAoD read this, please consider rework the TR1&2 remaster texture to make it more faithful to the original games.
Thanks !

Thanks anyway for your answer.
what does it do??
Does it not say in the Mod Name that it is a RESKIN of the shotgun to match TR3's?
