This mod replaces weapon assets to bring the Diamond Sword to GTA 5. It’s designed for players who want a different sword appearance while keeping the game’s standard weapon behavior.
The implementation uses OpenIV to swap the model and textures inside the weapons archive. It also addresses a known visual bug in FPS camera: a block/part of the sword may disappear, so the replacement is done using the Hatchet slot/files to improve on-screen consistency.
• Mod type: weapon replacement (model + textures)
• Game: GTA 5
• FPS camera issue: sword/block part may vanish — mitigated via the replacement workflow
• Replacement target: Hatchet
• Files swapped: w_me_hatchet .ydr and .ytd
• Method: OpenIV (Edit Mode)
To apply it, open the correct RPF location in OpenIV, enable Edit Mode, replace the listed files in weapons.rpf, and then rebuild to finalize the changes for GTA 5.
