U5L Modding Question

Hi All,

I've joined this site to learn how to add content to the awesome U5:Lazarus mod for DS. I've modded an avatar portrait, avatar face, royal shield, but only because I could find them in the tank (U5L mod/resource) files. Upgrades to existing files and content is fun, but I really want to add new content like ChickenGeorge has.

However, what's not clear to me is where this mod pulls the rest of their meshes, textures, and templates from. I understand most non-magical gear (long sword, mace, hammer, etc.) are likely "inherited" from the original DS game, but even for those there should be a template for them, but I can't find them (or almost any templates for "gear") anywhere in the mod (tank) files. It's like the files and templates I'm looking for are hidden or saved/installed somewhere else? Help!!

Also, can anyone recommend a camera mod that is compatible with U5:L?

Here is my current project (Royal Shield) - I'm mostly done, but the mesh used for this shield warps the texture in the upper left and right sides of the shield ruining the look. I found identical meshes that don't display that same warping with the texture, so I'd like to replace the base shield mesh with a new one.
