EDIT 2022:
With newer versions of Frosty allowing for unrestricted mesh edits and complete replacements, this type of mod (bundle editing) is now completely obsolete. Bundle editing is very buggy and unpredictable, not to mention tedious for the mod creator; when it was discovered it was the only way to achieve making some armors wearable, but now it's an old and very inefficient way. For this reason, as well as my no longer modding or having any of my files necessary, I'm not supporting my bundle edit body-switch mods any more. If they still work for you, feel free to keep using them as you like - just be aware that there will be bugs. 

To other mod creators who may want to 'remake' these mods/make these armors wearable, using newer methods which won't be so bug-ridden - you have my full permission, and do not need to ask! I don't own the armors and absolutely want people to wear anything they want in-game. I'll leave my mods up in case people still want to use them, and as a legacy thing, but I fully encourage anyone who wants to wear one of these armors to first seek out newer mods that achieve the same thing.
Many thanks and happy modding!



Viddasalarmour: Live Like the Viddasala

A body switching mod replacing QF’s unequipped/Skyhold pyjamas with the Viddasala’s armour (and horns/headpiece). Requires Trespasser.

Saawrath: Live Like Saarath
A body switching mod replacing QM’s unequipped/Skyhold pyjamas (and possibly the var3 armour) with Saarath’s stage 2 armour from the Trespasser boss fight. Requires Trespasser.

I may add more Qunari NPC armours to this at a later date, if there’s interest. 

Body-Swap Mod Guide

  • Use an invisible armour mod or don’t wear armour over it to avoid clipping disasters. Some replacers may also replace Prologue and Var1/2/3 armours (the basic vanilla Inquisitor armours), others may only replace the unequipped pyjamas. 
  • NPC armours can only be equipped on the same race and gender combinations as the NPC. If it only appears on HF, it can only be worn on HF. 
  • Body-swap modding is still in a very early stage, not everything is possible yet, each armour is a lot of tedious work. Some armours crash the game, some don't work outside Skyhold, we don't know why this is yet. Please be patient + polite about requests. 
  • Frosty only, this method of modding is not compatible with DAITools. To use with .daimods, simply do the switcharound - make a backup of the vanilla Patch file, merge your daimods as usual, rename the modded patch as Patch and replace the vanilla one with it, then load up Frosty, apply your mods and launch the game. 
  • Non-tintable. It is possible to make these armours tintable, but it's a lot of extra work, and I'd rather make as many armours available as possible.
  • These mods are compatible with retextures/recolours of NPC armours. :^)
  • Before making a request, take a look at electricfish's NPC Armour Mod tutorial and consider making the mod yourself! Modding is fun and this method is currently too tedious for one person to make every armour wearable. 
  • Enjoy and feel free to submit pictures of your NPC Inquisitors! Kudos/comments appreciated if you like the mod.
