About this mod

Adds in Milkman Power Armor based on the New Vegas Milk Company. Design based on the custom texture produced by Al Chestbreach during his review of said mod.

Permissions and credits
Credit Forenote:
First and foremost, credit goes to Testudini and Oliver "Merc" Smith for their Milkman Mod for Fallout: New Vegas, and AlChestBreach for his T-60 Prototype Texture he made for the review. The latter link is to Episode 8 of his review of the formerly mentioned mod, where he painted a suit of prototype T-60 to prepare for a battle only a Milkman could fight.

Credit also goes to Expired6978 and their Power Armor Paint Compiler, which was used to make this mod.

Credit also goes to Travis O and their T-60 Prototype for Fallout: New Vegas, which was the armor retextured by Al.

Without them, this mod would not exist. So, thank you.

Normal and Specular Map Issues:
If you're missing Normal Maps and Specular Maps, download update v.1.2  v.1.3 (v.1.2 has the
textures in the wrong directory, sorry ^^; ). That should solve
your issue. I strangely was missing them when I made a freshly modded client,
and added them in hopes to solve this for anyone else who might have the same
issue.

Note, version v.1.2 may make texture darker:

Milkman Power Armor:
This mod is a Standalone ESP, and does not replace any power armor textures.

Based on the custom assets of the critically acclaimed Mod Reviewer AlChestbreach, Milkman Power Armor brings you his vision into Fallout 4. Live the dream of being a Power Armored Milkman in the Commonwealth, just as Al has done in the Mojave.

Again, Major thanks to those who gave the assets, ideas, and programs necessary to make this mod. Without you and your genius, I would have never tried to follow suit. I had a lot of fun making this mod, especially because it was my first. So, I hope you have fun using it! It's not lore friendly or anything, and really, it's a gag. But if you like that, good!

Installation:
Like usual installations, simply download with nexus mod manager and install. However, as this is my first mod for Fallout, I cannot help but imagine someone will find a way to break it. So, if you do, please PM me!

As always, remember to modify your Fallout.ini file to allow the game to get textures from other folders. On Windows 8.1, you'll find it in:
C:\Users\(Your Name)\Documents\My Games\Fallout4

Open it and find the [Archive] tab. Find the line:
sResourceDataDirsFinal=STRINGS\

Change it to:
sResourceDataDirsFinal=STRINGS\,TEXTURES\, MATERIALS\

This should allow the game to recognize the file path for my armor set! Happy Power-Armored-Milk-Delivery to you all!

Note for Windows 10 users:
Nexus Mod Manager seems to have an issue with installing into Windows 10 when placing file folders along with .esps.
For those having purple textures, it seems as though the textures themselves were never installed!

Thanks to Testudini, we have a solution:

In his words:
1. Navigate to the Textures folder in your Data folder.
2. Create a new folder called Actors.
3. Create a new folder in the Actors folder called PowerArmor [no space!]
4. Place the texture files (T60ArmMilkL_d.dds, T60ArmMilkR_d.dds, T60BodyMilk_d.dds, T60HelmetMilk_d.dds, T60LegMilk_d.dds) in your newly-created PowerArmor folder.
4.5. (OP's extra step:) Also make sure to place all files with _n.DSS and _s.DSS in that folder, along with the aforementioned ones ending with _d.DSS. Those are Normal and Specular maps. They're 100% Necessary. 
5. ???
6. Milk.

This should create the file path the mod will recognize! Happy Power-Armored-Milk-Delivery to you all!

Important Note!:
Use the "Right Arm" texture for the right arm to have the "Got Milk?" decal on your right pauldron; else it will simply be white like the left. This is due to the left and right limb textures being mirrored of the other, which is part of the vanilla game. This mod actually adds two paintjobs, one of which only adds an arm texture to be used on the right arm.
