What it does
####....####

Adds 12 items to the March Rider in Cheydinhal; ten rapiers and two main gauche. All of them have the same stats, have 'ignores normal weapon resistance' checked and come unenchanted. The three SFX blades have high-grade enchantment variations.



I have the 'clean' high-poly geometry normal maps if anyone wishes to do retextures but wants to retain the smooth effect they provide. Simply contact me at the BGS forums and ask. http://www.bethsoft.com/bgsforums/

Conflicts and errors
####....####

None known at this time. - Tested with a sizable FCOM installation.
RapierSFXFire.nif sometimes had draw issues in NifSkope, I suspect it is an ATI driver issue, but can't be sure. I saw no negative effects in-game under various lighting conditions. (entire scene would become non-visible in the 3d view when rotated, zoomed or panned.)
