Better Imperial Armor

Description: Imperial armor now has improved textures and meshes; excluding the Penitus Oculatus and General Tullius armor. The textures of the Imperial heavy armor have been changed to look more metal while the studded Imperial armor now looks more "studded" or appear to look like "medium" armor. The light armor also uses different textures. The Imperial armor has been vastly improved to look more high quality and better overall. 

Mods I HIGHLY Recommend: 1) Sleeved Imperials ← Download the compatibility file found on THIS mod page. The sleeves have also been changed to match perfectly with the armor. 2) Imperial Sword 4K By Billyro ← An amazing Imperial sword texture replacement. 3) Semper Fi SE - An Imperial Armor Mod ← I recommend downloading the Penitus Oculatus and General Tullius ONLY file from that mod page. Be warned; if you're using Sleeved Imperials, the meshes and textures for the sleeves of Imperial armor are not compatible with this mod. If someone were to make a compatibility file, I would be grateful. 4) Perfect Legionnaire - Imperial Armor Reforged ← The red Imperial shield goes great with the sword and armor. I recommend downloading red shield ONLY file from that mod page. 5) Improved Imperial Armor and Weapons ← Makes Imperial armor and weapons equivalent as to ebony, allowing it to be more useful. 

Installation/Uninstallation: For a manual installation, click "Manual Download" then drop the "textures" and "meshes" folders into the DATA folder of your Skyrim SE directory. To uninstall the mod, simply remove the files in the "textures" and "meshes" folders. However, I recommend using Nexus Mod Manager (NMM) or Mod Organizer 2 (MO2) simply because of organization. To install the mod using one of the programs, click "Mod Manager Download" and install it through one of the programs. To uninstall the mod through one of programs, just delete/remove it.
