About this mod

Several iconic outfits from the wardrobe of the irrepressible Cate Archer.

Permissions and credits
Several well known (to those who ...err, know) outfits worn by the greatest thief turned spy ever, Cate Archer, from No One Lives Forever fame.

Nolf 1 and 2 are perhaps my favourite first person action/adventure games of all time, so bringing some of Cate's outfits to F04 was a work of love for me. Equipped with her trusty Deliverer, she is unstoppable!

The outfits include, Cate's Black jacket and Orange miniskirt, her alternate Pants and Blouse outfit. Also her naughty little Summer mini-dress, and her tight vinyl Jumpsuit. Finally there is also her "Winter" coat (though considering there isn't anything underneath, let's hope it's not a very cold Winter)

Also included are 3 different coloured Gloves (black, orange, white) and 3 separate "Choker's" (also in black, orange and white)

All are standalone, and craft-able at the Chem Workbench under "Utility" form basic materials. All outfits can be uses as 'underarmor' though obviously you may get some weird clipping on some of them. They have various stats from vanilla outfits (+Per, +Cha etc.) All "should" be upgrade-able with Ballistic weave, once unlocked.

Info:
All outfits are fairly closely based on the CBBE Zeroed Slider body (the default CBBE Reference body in Outfit Studio) So they should be easy to convert to other body types.
They are primarily bashed, mashed, tweaked and cropped from vanilla meshes, so some of the textures would actually work as replacers for vanilla outfits.

The gloves are recoloured versions of the Silver Shroud Gloves, but they are separate items, so you aren't forced to wear them (like the default SS Outfit, or Piper's outfit)

The "Choker" was a bit tough to create, as there is no equivalent in the vanilla game (and only the slave collar in NW) It's a little bulky and looks somewhat like an over turned cat food bowl stuck in your neck, but I wanted to avoid any clipping issues if possible, and also wanted it to "move" properly with the body. I'll do some 'tweaking' and see if I can't get it to fit a little better. It also currently uses the "Neck" slot, so it shouldn't interfere with any other clothing items.

I have made the items craftable at the Chem Workbench, because a) I can't get AWKCR to stop freezing my game when I use it and b) Some people don't use AWKCR.

If someone want's to make an AWKCR patch, feel free. If you want't to use any of these assets in your own mod, please feel free, just let me know.  I'm also happy for anyone to make bodyslide/conversions of any of these outfits.

None of the textures are Sooper Hi Rez Leetz 4K  or anything, as that is totally pointless and stupid, the game will never show a 4k texture so there is no point to making them. Most are ~2k, with certain ones at .5 or 1k

The .esp has been cleaned with F04Edit.

My computer is a potato, so I apologize for the lack of high quality screenshots, with super realistic lighting effects, and wonderful poses, I also don't have PS, so I can't edit the images to add film grain effects and fancy lighting to hide the quality of the textures/meshes.

Please report any bugs or errors. Please, PLEASE upload screenshots if you use/like the outfits. Please feel free to offer polite comments and/or suggestions.
