Rubellux Cesti - More Red Glow (w/ no Ring option)

0ceal0t for VFX Editor, Students of Baldesion Discord, Textools, Ottermandias for Penumbra

(Update 2025/3/5: Added .pmp Modpack with options, should work perfectly now. Working on adding glow to normal Ruby Cesti next, but having a bit of a hard time atm)

NOTE: This does not contain action vfx mods like later 3 images! Those are WIP images for another Mnk mod in progress, stay tuned.

First time making a Gear / vfx mod.
Edited Monk's Rubellux Cesti fist weapons glow to be more red and less pink / blue, fits red / edgy glamours as you wish.
2nd option removes the glowing halo, glyph and glitch fx; leaving only the glowing eyes, weapon + blade glows, red aura.
(If extracting .ttmp2 files from the .zip file and installing via Textools: Use only one pack at a time, or files will conflict! Or set one with an index of 1 in Penumbra if installing both, only for Penumbra).

If you don't have the weapon, you can try model swap, take the glow for another weapon with VFXEditor or smth, I dunno. Have fun.
May work on another version later that will add the glows to the regular Ruby Cesti weapons, or even Emperor's New Gloves

Currently also working on V1 of an edgy (Devil Jin) / Iori Yagami inspired Mnk mod with red + black + red electric vfx, new sound fx, some changed actions and maybe idle / walk / run to be more like Devil Jin and Iori's. V1 will be mainly Mnk's actions (with some swaps and few new actions), pictured above.
Weapon mod was made originally to better suit the vfx and aesthetic I'm aiming for.
9 / 38 actions done at the moment, though they could use refinement.
Would like to also figure out how to convert this weapon to a more claw-like one like Devil Jin's Gauntlets, removing the front part and merging it with the silver Ktiseos Lancer claw gloves so you can wear on top of other gloves, to be able to have animated fingers for Devil Jin / Iori's claw moves for V2 of the Mnk Mod.
No ETA yet, maybe several months for V1, year or so for V2. Still learning as I go...

Preview examples in screens (tap / click Right) after the 2nd img are early versions of modded Rising Raptor (Rakshasa's Rampage) and Bootshine (Flash Claw Combo) so far.

Ty to the mod devs who worked hard on these apps for us, the Students of Baldesion discord for tips and support, and Papachin and Yorshka for inspiration to learn and make these mods myself, thanks to their goated Vergil Sam and Berserk Drk mods respectively
