Welcome to the twenty eighth installment of my Oblivion Immersion Series.  Any Skyrim players here?  And how many use Unique Uniques or Unique Weapons Redone?  Well this mod is basically those mods, but for Oblivion.  Only a handful of the unique items look unique at all, and even fewer have unique meshes and textures both. This mod endeavors to correct this by revamping most unique weapons,armors, and clothing with original meshes and textures.  Yes, more than just weapons, resulting in this mod’s non-indicative name.  It started out as a weapons replacer only, but then branched out to include other things.  

It was always kind of disappointing that the sword-of-infinite-game-breaking-power bought from whatever-store shared the same generic whatever-model that you've seen a million times in game already.  That, and lazy.  I did my best to stay true to the vanilla aesthetic, so that all of the replacements look like they belong there (so no anime-desu monstrosities here). 

Note that items that already had unique textures, if not necessarily meshes, are omitted from this mod. That means that Witsplitter, Debaser, the Honorblade of Chorrol, etc.don’t have any replacers in this mod.

Requirements
============

Oblivion Version 1.2.0416

Installation Instructions
====================

Copy contents into your Oblivion data folder

Uninstallation Instructions
=======================

Delete the esp, meshes, and textures

Incompatibility
=============

Technically compatible with Ironman5000's Immersive Weapons mod, but does clash stylistically, in that Immersive Weapons adds as generic weapons what this mod adds as unique replacers for vanilla ones.  Using both will dilute out this mod's effect.  Incompatible with Naihaan's Deceiver's Finery Replacer, but so long as that mod is loaded after this one, you can use Deceiver's Finery Replacer while still getting everything else that this mod offers.  Incompatible with Ferretmyster's Oblivion Artifacts Overhaul, but if you want to use both for some reason, load one of a Kind Weapons after Oblivion Artifacts Overhaul, and you can retain some of the changes OAO makes. 

Change Log
==========

V1.01:

 - merges One of a Kind Weapons with OoaKW - Staff of Worms
 - adds a plugin description for easier Wrye Bash patching

V1.0:

 - initial release

Optional Files
============

OoaKW - Staff of Worms is an optional plugin that replaces the Staff of Worms with a new mesh and texture.  This mod is merged into the V1.01 update.  The Alternative Shoes version is a variant of V1.01 that changes the meshes for Nistor's Boots, Boots of Springheel Jack, Quicksilver Boots, and Boots of the Swift Merchant to reduce clipping issues.  To install, let the Alternative Shoes plugin overwrite the original plugin.  Alternative Shoes serves as both a plugin replacer and update for V1.0 to V1.01, but needs the BSA from either main version.

Known Issues
===========

A few resources lack accompanying gnd files or menu icons, so mismatching vanilla ones had to be used instead in a few cases.  Menu icons have at times spontaneously disappeared, I have no idea whether this was a side effect from building the mod or if it's a long term problem.

Troubleshooting
==============

Feel free to come to me with questions or issues and I will help as best as I can.  That said, please bear in mind that I am a novice modder and may not be able to offer much in the way of assistance.
