Dwarven Armor Reforged
v1.0 by Zoney
----
BACKGROUND:
Because the Dwemer seemingly only crafted armor for male fighters, resourceful smiths have fashioned new armor for female fighters. This plate armor is forged from salvaged Dwarven metals, and has the same properties as bona-fide Dwarven armor. Most armor merchants will stock and sell this armor for female fighters of suitable caliber - it is after all easier to come by than intact Dwarven armor.
WHAT IT DOES:
Adds female meshes for Dwarven armor (cuirass and helmet), modified from iron armor meshes.
Uses modified (gold colored) iron armor textures.
Adds an amended female greaves mesh (bum slightly adjusted outwards to closer match iron greaves mesh).
ESP file tells Oblivion to use these meshes for females for those items.
----
PROBLEMS:
ESP file switches the Dwarven helmet to act as hair only (not head). This allows your face to be shown in the new female helmet mesh (iron helmet).
Downside: Males still use the original helmet that is designed to replace the head. Slight clipping issues on the neck as a result of rendering head inside helmet.
RESOLUTION:
If you like, copy the meshes used for female helmets into the male directory:
<drive>:\<directories>\Oblivion\Data\meshes\armor\dwarven\m<br><br>----<br><br>INSTALLING:<br>Copy the esp file to the Oblivion\Data directory. Check it in Data Files menu on Oblivion load screen.<br>Copy the meshes to Oblivion\Data\meshes\armor\dwarven\f<br>Copy the textures to Oblivion\Data\textures\armor\dwarven\f<br><br>----<br><br>CONFLICTS:<br>Possibly other mods adjusting the dwarven cuirass, helmet or greaves in the construction set will be affected depending on how Construction Set and Oblivion combine mods.<br>Resource conflicts unlikely unless other mods *add* female dwarven armor meshes (i.e. no existing Oblivion files are replaced by this mod).</directories></drive>
