About this mod

This is basicly a compilation of meshes allready in the game, and retexturing and recoloring of original textures. Credits. ReadFeather1975 for making a nifskope tutorial, and Sean_IX for fixing a small problem with the tutorial, making me understand how to get it working in game. http://www.elderscrolls.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=394408&

mmmpld for making the separates pauldrons mod making it possible for me to add the left shoulder pad http://www.tessource.net/files/cache/5757.html

Xessive for his Dark Broterhood Reskin which I stole a few textures from
http://www.tessource.net/files/cache/4091.html

And Last but far from least interestingjohn for his great compilation and reskinning, which were a great inspiration. And I stole some Great Leather textures from it as well. http://www.tessource.net/files/cache/3269.html


Process.

First I made the original Dark Brotherhood Skin lighter and more worn, then I took the some shiny parts from Xessives texture and moved them to my new texture, also I took his belts and recolored them. Then with the help of ReadFeathers guide I added the skirt from the female blades armor and the shoulder pad from mmmpld separates mod, it is the orcish model. I recolored and made some invisible on the skirt. Then I took interestingsjohn leather texture, recolored it and fitted it on to the orcish shoulder pad. I also used some dim downed leather textures from Xessives again for the brims. I also removed the black hand from the armor because I felt this one should be guildless, I replaced it with the dragon icon from the championlight armor. While the hood is just a recolored robe hood, taken from robe model 3.

Includes.

1 unenchanted set with Glass stats, and 1 enchanted set with Elven stats and a custom enchantment. Both can be find in the study cupboard in the bruma house for sale.

Installation.

Just unzip all files into the Oblivion/Data folder.

Issues.

there is some small clippings on the female version, this will be fixed in the future if it is wanted. Also while using bow in third person there can be a small clipping with the skirt, none of them are very noticeable.

PS.

I mainly made this armor because I too was not so happy about the final light armors in the game and I felt interestingjohns armor was still a tad bit heavy looking. So I embarked on a little modding adventure of my own. And Seeing how I really don't know much about making textures and meshes etc. I sorta just borrowed it all. So I would not really take much credit for this armor at all, but I did make the idea myself and I did spend about a week researching and troubleshooting before I came up with what it is now (originally it was supposed to use a different skirt). Anyways I hope you like it and please any comments are great. Thanks
