if it wasn't removed prior to releasing on pc maybe some one could find it hidden away in the game files.

Yes, this

From what I can tell from findings on the internet, Midgar's Flower Girl was pretty much completely removed from the PC port of Lightning Returns; the text is the only thing still there. Even the sound data for the weapon and shield are gone.

What I'M wondering is if some hopeful modder couldn't attach another double-sword's mesh, textures, and sound data, and another shield's stuff, another adornment's stuff, and another garb's stuff to the Flower Girl stats.

Like, a modder could take, like, Violet Twilight and recolor it so it's it pink and red by default, and then Il Nome Della Rosa and color it like the Flower Bearer, and color the Double Saber so it's colored like the Guard Stick. Is the pink ribbon you get with the Aerith garb a part of it by default or is it an adornment? I've never bought Aerith.

The stats and auto-abilities are recorded online, so all a modder would have to do is attach those to the renamed and recolored stuff. It would tide people over until the actual Aerith DLC was dumped and inserted into the PC game.

Does everyone follow what I'm saying? I am NOT saying "play pretend LOL," I'm suggesting a possible mod to allow you to at least access the content of the Flower Girl garb by using "placeholder" graphics and sounds. Not that *I* am offering my services; I don't know crap about modding 3D games. But it's an idea.
