UPDATE: We at Wind Hunters have a new (2023) heraldic, rising the options to four. You can now easily select which one to install with a 2.0 selective install, unique file for Fluffy Manager Mod!




This a simple mod made to insert our Wind Hunters Guild's heraldic into a male Hoplite cape (chest) in Monster Hunter Rise. While I was in the process, managed to create three more versions that may become more useful for the community.
Needless to say, as every version modifies the same files, you can only have one installed at the same time (fluffy will enforce that via selective install, so dont worry).

M Hoplite Chest WH Cape: Contains our classic Wind Hunter's Guild logo as replacement for Elgado heraldic in the Hoplite cape (chest)
M Hoplite Chest WH2023 Cape: Contains our new 2023 Wind Hunter's Guild logo as replacement for Elgado heraldic in the Hoplite cape (chest)
M Hoplite Chest Vanilla+ (tintable cape heraldic): Contains the same vanilla Hoplite chest with the only change to CMM file so the Elgado heraldic will be dyeable at user's choice, with the secondary armor color ingame.
M Hoplite Chest Blank Cape (Template): Contains the vanilla Hoplite chest cape but with the Elgado heraldic removed. Useful for using it as a template for your own projects, as I'm be honored if anyone does. But please, if you do make your work public, I do compel you to credit me for using this file <3.

Important Note: this armor set requires you to have the expansion Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak, as well as you need to unlock and complete (by going up in your story/MR) certain support survey quests a certain amount of times. The NPC that unlocks this set for you (with the overlay version as well) is Master Arlow. Keep completing his blue requests and you will eventually get his armor set as reward.




Place the desired .rar version on the mod manager's folder, so it can become readable by the program. Enable it by using its interface. If you are in doubt, go to the specific mod manager's page and learn/ask there how to do it properly. The one I do currently suggest to use is Fluffy Manager 5000.




This is my second mod on NMM, but in reality my first one regarding the another was just a simple table edit. All this insane amount of work, even for a theoretically simple mod like this, took me many full nights and would had reach a dead end if I werent under the guidance of the outstanding folks of the Monster Hunter Modding Discord. Over them all, would like to mention the following:

- NSACloud2#5771, for documenting many tutorials and file descriptions, and for allways lending a helping hand at every problem I encountered.
- asdasdasdasdasd#7462, Neebs The NEET#0776, Vox Gray#3634, Yian Konchu#3380, Silvris#5472, for being helpful and pointing me additional directions when I was lost.
- FluffyQuack for his program makes this mod usable.
- *Ỽ (Asterisk Ampersand) for the MHR_Tex_Chopper which is necessary for converting game files into editable ones and vice and versa.
- MHVuze for creating a database of game files to know where is located everything.
- nfh994 for creating the MHRUnpack that lets you extract only your selected files instead of the whole 31GB pak.
- Crapcom (and specially Team B) because, even after many wrongs they are the creators of such a wonderful game as Monster Hunter Rise & MHR:Sunbreak
- The Monster Hunter Modding Discord and and their helping folks in there.
- Nexusmods for the public hosting. I guess.
- Shion396 for creating the Wind Hunters Guild heraldic

- A todas esas maravillosas persianas? que hacen de Wind Hunters Guild su hogar para compartir experiencias cooperativas e invitar a los demás a unirse a ésta nuestra gran, longeva y alucinante pequeña segunda familia gamer centrada en Monster Hunter. ¡Gracias! Este mod es hasta la fecha mi mayor tributo a la comunidad. ¡Que comience la caza!
