Details
 =======
 
This is a retexture of the Dark Brotherhood Shrouded armor. It is currently only available for the female version as the male and female outfits use completely different meshes and textures. Also I primarily play as female characters so I did that set first. I plan to update this mod after I have completed the male set. The retexture affects the cuirass, boots, gauntlets, and hood. My primary reason for making this mod was because I saw how this armor has not received as much attention as other sets and and most of the mods that do attempt to improve this armor set are recolors only. This retexture completely reworks the set from the ground up starting from the normal maps. This mod is not a simple recolor of the vanilla maps.
The mod comes in two files. One is a 2K set of maps that most users will find adequate. The other is a 4K set for screen archery and those of you with better machines. Please note that the 2K version is the recommended version, as it provides balance between detail and performance. Use only one!
Install
 =======
Either throw the folders into your Data directory or use the Nexus Mod Manager/Mod Organizer to do it for you.
Uninstall
 =========
 Either use Nexus Mod Manager or Mod Organizer to remove the files for you or manually remove them from you Skyrim/Data folder. 
Upgrade
 =======
 
 I plan to upgrade and improve this mod over time as I fix bugs, think of new ideas, become more adapted to the CK, and so on. Be sure to check back in once and awhile for updates. Be sure to completely uninstall any previous versions of this mod before upgrading though.
 
 I will not take responsibility for corrupted save games or lost save games. Get into the habit of backing up your saves to protect your game data. Ignore at your own risk!

 ===============
 This is a Skyrim Nexus Exclusive.
 You MUST contact me before you do anything with this mod in any form for any reason. This includes language translations. I will NOT be providing Steam Workshop support at this time. Neither I nor McMuffin wish to see this mod on the Steam Workshop for the foreseable future.
 I do not feel comfortable with their legal policies towards modding so I will not use it. I will not support or endorse its use at this time. If I want it to be on Steam, I will do so myself. If you see this on Steam, LET ME KNOW! I will not support any version of this mod found on Steam. I will not accept any childish excuse about "sharing" with the community. If you refuse to respect my wishes, I can not, in good faith, respect yours.
