About this mod

With this mod, when you put on the helmet and cuirass of a Hold Guard, you are effectively disguised as a guard of that hold! Great for stage IV vampires and characters in the Thieves Guild/Dark Brotherhood.

NO LONGER MAINTAINED

Sorry guys, life caught up with me. I stopped updating this mod before the DLC came out, so it won't work with any of those costumes. I may re-do this mod when the remaster is released. If so, I'll let you guys know.

---------------------

Is being a wanted criminal or a stage IV vampire getting you down? Ever put on a set of guard armor, helmet and all, only to have guards automatically recognize that you are not one of them? Or did you simply fall in love with the "faction armor" system in Fallout: New Vegas (when it worked correctly)?

Introducing, the Guard "Faction Armor" Mod for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim!

This mod makes it so that when you put on a guard's helmet and cuirass together, you become "disguised" as a guard of that Hold (ex. Whiterun Guard's Helmet + Whiterun Guard's Cuirass = Whiterun Guard disguise)! Guards from the same hold your armor is associated with (and only that hold) will not attack you on sight or try to arrest you if you have a bounty, and NPCs will not be hostile toward stage IV vampires. Your true identity will be revealed as soon as you take off the cuirass or the helmet.

But be careful... guards will still come after you if you commit a crime while wearing the disguise.

Note: This disguise should not effect how guards see you in The Forsworn Conspiracy or during the Civil War Battles.

This is my first mod that I have had the guts to upload, so please make sure you have backup saves in case this mod messes anything up (which it shouldn't). If you encounter problems, please contact me so I can fix them and update the mod. Enjoy!

*****NOTE*****

This mod is experimental, and is not guaranteed to work in all circumstances. Still working out a few issues. The basic functionality should be there, however. Please tell me if you tried it and had issues! And if you tried it and had no issues, tell me then too! Thanks! I really want this to work for everyone.


HELP ME MAKE THIS MOD BETTER!

If you have any idea how to write a script that involves detection, please let me know! I want to be able to make it so that if the player is detected by *anyone* while putting on the disguise, it won't work. Email or PM me!

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

- If a save is loaded where the player is already a Stage IV Vampire, equipping the faction armor does not work properly. To remedy this, feed once and then wait three days to reset your Stage IV Vampire status.

- If the player puts on the disguise while detected by other NPCs, the disguise will work normally, even if those NPCs are hostile toward the player. Completely unrealistic - Must Fix.

- If the player commits a crime while wearing the disguise and gets arrested/pays bounty, a guard may force-greet the player upon his/her release as if she committed another crime, even though the player's bounty has been cleared.
