ROM Hack [Help] MH4G>>MHXX Weapon Model Importing

[Shikoru]

Hello.

I am very new to this. I only started modding 2 weeks ago. I am just a MH fan asking for help from people who know more about this than I do.

Wanting to import weapon .arc files from MH4G to MHXX using Luma game patching.

Using Dasding's MHX rom editing guide I've been able to repack the Deviljho texture used in the example successfully.​

I have unpacked ARC files of the weapon I want from MH4G and the one I want to replace in XX. Each ARC file has 5 files. A .mod for the sword and sheath. Two MRL files for each of them. And they both share one TEX. The MRL files seem to be files containing file paths to the textures for the particular model.

I copied the .mod files over then repacked. Both arc files of the Longsword are displayed ingame completely black.

The problem I am having is when I import the TEX file from MH4, the weapon becomes invisible and I cannot figure out why.

Advice?

Edit - I'm using Luma game patching w/ the translation patch files.
