Looking at the archive, I see a bunch of textures with the tr_ preffix, are the older Tamriel Rebuilt textures (that would explain the tga format), or current ones that comes from Tamriel_Data?
I'm not sure to be honest, I've made the mod pre-Narsis and Firemoth patches, using TR version textures and models for recoloring glass items added by TR. I had both TR_mainland and TamrielData plugged in back then and the mod is dependant on those, but I'm sure at least TR mainland has been changed with a lot of new content since. I don't know if the format has been changed in later versions. Is there a compability problem with the newest TR/TamrielData releases? My game folder is full of random repacked stuff, I haven't changed that since years :P
I know it's a late response, but I've uploaded a version fixing that. I used tx_w_mace_shaft.dds in the main texture folder for handles, I was convinced it's a vanilla glass weapons texture, so it should be there, but apparently it's missing. I just put it along other files directly in Texture folder.
There was actually another mod that did this made many years ago. It also had a super rare and much stronger White Glass Variant as well. And only one piece of each part existed. it was literally like the daedric armor hunt. Sadly, it seems this armor mod may not have been backed up on archive.org. So this is a good (and probably much better) alternative.

I remember someone mentioning that there was a similiar mod back in a day on reddit, just a few days ago. Good to hear the mod still exists. Apparently it had 7 colors of glass - very cool! Someone should reupload it on Nexus for better accessibility.
Not sure what's up but that link is no longer working. :( EDIT: I'm dumb it's not dead but their site is down after that major attack they got hit with.
Still new to modding using openMW. I didn't see any instructions for adding this one. When it drops into data files under openMW when I unpack it, do I have to append this one? or is it ready to go?
Just got it. I scaned it on www.virustotal.com, vms.drweb.com, and AVG with no threats found. I found no compatibility issues yet with any other mods I use. You put a lot of work into this, it'll be fun in my mod load list. Thanks.
Have fun with it! I added new items in a lot of spots, but in practice you don't bump into those too often - I wanted to keep it close to regular glass item rarity - so I think it's the best to install the mod and forget about it! :P Have it working in the background and you should have this nice suprise from time to time, when you suddenly find a rare loot item.
