Swaps out the models for a number of schematics so you can have your favorite items without sacrificing stats.

Affects items created from schematics only (i.e. will not affect Avenger unique sword). Exceptions on some alternate files

Except where noted this only affects item appearance, not schematic name, crafting slots, icon, etc...

Schematics are still found in same location (e.g. black emporium vendor)

Likely incompatible with other mods affecting the chosen schematics (will most likely override/be overridden depending on load order)
In the case of two files affecting the same schematic I aim to leave one as an optional file.

Unzip archive and install only the mods you want to use, fully modular. (which is good because there're now a lot of random files, so pick and choose.)

Probably obvious since I haven't done much here for a year, but I don't plan on upgrading this any more.

Remember that the presence of upgrade slots is dependent on the model that gets swapped in so the result may be more/less powerful if slots are removed or added.

ADDITIONAL FILES:

Gives Stone stalker blade the armada captains knife aoe ability. Not compatible with the promise of the storm swap.  under optional files. Requires The Descent

Visual change to remove the weird dual grip on the stone stalker blade model, compatible with the above ability mod. will also affect all pre-made items using the model (like silencer). Under optional files. Requires The Descent

Swaps models of "tevinter sword grip" with "grey warden grip" and "dense sword grip". This will affect the appearance of the grey warden  sword grip that appears pre-made as loot/in stores.

Swaps out grip/pommel on edgewise to match the inquisition greatsword in the cutscene, no weird clipping. WILL AFFECT NON-SCHEMATIC VERSION

Changes Cutpurse Slicer mesh to a slightly thinner version. WILL AFFECT NON-SCHEMATIC VERSION

Blade of Tidarion Swaps: Either Hakkon or edgewise will affect only the schematic version, the other combinations will affect non-schematic versions. The versions with physical blades still function as staffs and deal elemental damage. Edgewise version is compatible with grip-swap file

Blade of Tidarion Edgewise Bladeless: Uses the edgewise (inquisitor gsw) model without the blade and with the good grip, compatible with ability mods. Will probably affect the first skyhold cutscene.

Blade of Tidarion Prismatic: Uses prismatic greatsword hilt, choose either vanilla, with just the hilt (and standard tidarion energy blade) or bladed, with the prismatic blade vfx (and on-hit bonus damage... unfortunately those seem hard to separate without affecting the other prismatic weapons). WEIRD ADDITIONAL EFFECT: Blade vfx and ability may persist after uninstalling mod, recrafting seems to fix this, suspect the vfx timeline is baked into the item on crafting.

Blade of Tidarion Abilities: Grants the schematic one of the abilities of heart of rage/despair/pride. Select one file. Compatible with appearance changes other than Hakkon's valor or edgewise (with blade). [this is just a weird affect of the file structures]
