Upgrade
=======
Ver 1.0->1.5: Overwrite existing .esp and meshes/textures when prompted.

Incompatibility
===============
May conflict with mods that alter The Warlock's Luck in Bravil
vendor behaviour. See Issues.

All are sold by Ungarion.
Added separate chests to him for compatibility reasons.

The only thing that I see that could conflict is I had to change his AI so he would sell armor.

Should be compatible with SoA's original catsuit mod.

Should be compatible with all body mods including Biu Adventuress Body, Growlfs and Corwyns.

Some clipping and small gaps at the wrists and ankles may occur with Biu Adventuress Body mod
and other body mods.

No major problems occur and gaps dissappear when the catsuit is fully assembled with gloves
and boots.



Known Issues or Bugs
====================

If you had the Welkynd Sword mod installed and Ungarion won't sell the catsuits:

Welkynd Sword mod Workaround by Arwyn
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Ok, the only way to fix this if you have had the Welkynd Sword mod in previously and then removed it, is to reinstall the Welkynd Sword.

There is something in the mod script that sets a flag someplace in the save that breaks Ungarion as a merchant otherwise.

So, the fix is;

1) Reinstall the Welkynd Sword and select the .esp (its actually Ungarions Memoirs- The Welkynd Sword)
2) Use Obmm or something similar to select the load order.
3) Select the catsuit mod to load AFTER the Welkynd Sword
4) Open CS and load Oblivion.exm, Ungarions Memoirs.exp, and then jbcatsuits.esp.
5) Make the catsuits mod the active file
6) Go into the NPC section, High Elf, Male, and change Ungarion to from MerchEnchanter to MerchTrader.
7) Save it and your done!
