OVERVIEW

ZOO is a great mod that adds a lot of new items to the leveled list, vendors, etc., this includes shields. Shield on Back by Tycho is also a great mod by making vanilla shields be equipped on the back while not in use, which makes more sense in my opinion because holding these heavy shields on your arm all the time can be a real strain, unless you consider your character as a masochist. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

I haven't been able to add SoB support for the Andragorn shields (Shield kite wood.nif and Shield kite.nif) because everytime I try to open these files, Nifskope crashes, If someone can help me solve this issue, please PM me.

If you find a shield that doesn't have a shield on back support that I may have missed, please contact me immediately so that I'll fix it right away.


ZOO COMPATIBILITY

This mod is made during ZOO's version 1.9, as long as the file structure is unchanged, it will be compatible with future versions of ZOO, please contact me if there are any shields added by future versions if you want SoB support for it.


Update 06/03/19 : Compatible with ZOO version 2.0, no changes needed.

Update 12/02/19 : Compatible with ZOO version 2.1, no changes needed.

Update 11/30/20 : Compatible with ZOO version 2.2, no changes needed.


REQUIREMENTS

Zensalin's Oblivion Overhaul


Tychos Shield on Back Revived
(If you want it to work with your character only)

Addon for Shield on Back v31
(If you want it to work on your character and NPCs automatically, this requires the meshes from Shield on Back Revived to work)


INSTALL

Extract to your Oblivion/Data Directory, a mod manager is highly recommended.

My installation setup :
1. Download Tycho Shield on Back 3_1 from Shield on Back Revived, then install it, you only need the meshes folder so after that delete the Shield on Back 3.1.esp that comes with it, you won't need that.
2. Download Addon SoB 341 ENG from Addon for Shield on Back v31, this adds equip/ unequip sounds and adds support for KOTN shields, make sure to activate the esm after installing.
3. Install ZOO
4. Install this mod, aaaannddd you're good to go! :)



UNINSTALL

Simply remove the files associated with this mod.
