Personal peeve but I wish there was a version of this without needing AWKCR (I know SinlessSorrow did a version but that makes standalone duplicates and makes shop items unpaintable).
The framework for doing that for weapon paint jobs doesn't exist in AWKCR (yet); as far as I know, any method for doing so will be automatically incompatible; you either need to override the weapon records to have faction-specific templates, or duplicate the weapon records to create faction-specific weapons, both of which will require creating dozens of combatability patches for every other weapon mod that there is. =)
Power armour should be relatively straight forward, the framework for that does exist in AWKCR. I'm going to see about doing that myself (for the paint jobs I own). ... A quick look suggests that there isn't any (vanilla) faction-specific power armour paint, so that was easy, it's already done. =)
Now adding the non-faction-specific power armour paints for distribution on the other hand? That sounds like it should be do-able, though for AWKCR compatibility any effects would need to be stripped off, and possibly added to a new material if a relevant one doesn't already exist.
Nope. You just can't do that in vanilla without editing or copying the armour records, which will make any such mod incompatible with any other mod that touches armour. Creation Club Faction Overhauls appears to do exactly that if that's what you want; I downloaded, inspected, and rejected it before I came across this mod.
Can you copy and rename the ones you have - for example gunners and clone for using shark instances etc.? So therefore making all gunners just wear the "normal" green gear?
The Main file requires: "Nuka-Cola Cherry", "CamoBundle", "ShiSkin", "HalloweenBundle" and all of the "FactionSkin Bundles" The Settler-Holiday version file requires the "Holiday Workshop Pack" in addition to the CC content from the Main file
Hey you gonna do this for weapons too? Also, you forgot a few paint jobs. Nuka Cola, Hot Rod Flames, Camo Blue, Institute, and Children of Atom.
Nuka and Flames could go on Raiders, Camo Blue on Minutemen, and the other two self explanatory.
There's also Atom Cats, Vault Tec, Christmas, and Enclave but you know, not really anywhere to put those. . . except maybe on the individual Atom Cats? I might look into that one if I can't find a mod already doing it I guess. Good going putting the Halloween themed ones on Raiders though, they fit year round.
I wanted to do this for the weapons initially but it seems to only work globally (every 10mm will have this skin and not only the raider ones)
As for a short explanation how modcol seems to work: AWKCR has distributed modcol features to -each Armor and Clothing [seperated by factions with templates for Enclave/AtomCats to implement in mods which spawn said factions] -each Weapon Type [no seperation by factions here] -each PowerArmor [seperated by factions] -a.s.o. This means it is easy to implement with some finagling and quite compatible (since only the AWKCR modcol entries are changed slightly) I suppose the contact person would be valdacil here (him implementing the same framework to weapons for each faction)
As for the armor paint jobs, I am planning to add more later on. Also camo blue is already included if I am not wrong, just forgot to mention it on the modpage ^^
Oh I see, is Hot Rod Flame also already included and just not listed?
And I see x2. Do you have plans to edit the Power Armor records then? I have all the PA skins if you don't, and can make it myself if you weren't already going to. As for weapons, that is a shame and would just require hard leveled list and npc record edits. Considering how often AWKCR makes changes and additions though, that's probably something that will eventually change. What with Raider Overhaul's stupidly massive update coming out, I'm sure a system that allows for gun skin edits on just the Raider faction would be something AWKCR will include.
Added CoA, Institute and (optional) Settler paint job distribution.
I do not own any of the PA skins, which makes it impossible for me to make a PA version of this mod. Quite a few people would be thankful if you could share such a mod I think.
Sadly no... Any leather armor a Gunner spawns with has a equal chance to have a coloring of one of the skins (for example shark Breastarmor and Camo Legs)
The only way (I know of for now) for each faction to wear a matching set is to make them exclusively wear this set. For example every Gunner has the gunnerPaintjob aplied to their armors.
I personally chose to try it randomized for my first try in modding.
My biggest goal would be implementing the Raider Overhaul this way (only visuals) in order to achieve variety and compatibilty But I dont know when yet
I am not sure (This is my first mod after all) but it should be possible. But the downside for this would be the necessity to edit either NPC records(would make it incompatible with many things) or impelemting a LvLedList Injector Script.
The solution I took was easy in comparison. If you ever used FO4edit just look what I changed in order to achieve my results (pretty simple and straightforward)

This mod requires AWKCR and all of the CC Skins released to date
If you are missing any of the CC files simply use the dummy esl from

edit:
Uploaded a new Version, with the (still) buyable CC Skins only

And Thank you for your input
