PADDED GAMBESON WITH ARMING CAPS - 0.1
Thank you for downloading!
Requirements:
For it to work, none.
Having said that, the meshes were created to fit best under certain conditions, and those are satisfied by installing the following:
* Roberts Male v52
* HGEC v1.7 (Probably works just as well with Roberts Female, but I've yet to confirm this)
* OCOv2
* Vanilla Gear Redux
* Assorted Protective Female Armor - Ebony, Glass & Iron
I make no claim that this will work flawlessly with other race, body or armor mods. Having said that, it - should - be fine.
If you discover otherwise, please inform me in the comments so that I can address the problem.
Installation:
1: Use Wrye Bash or an appropriate mod manager.
2: Choose the options you wish to install - do not install more than one of the same number.
3: If you're using Assorted Protective Female Armors - Ebony, ensure that you enable "05 Ebony Helmet Replacer - APFA" instead of the default "05 Ebony Helmet Replacer" in the BAIN installer.
4: Enjoy!
- If Wrye Bash intimidates you:
You're on your own. Install manually and sort through the files yourself, I packaged to make the process as painless as possible.
Extract to the appropriate folders and delete the specific files when you want to uninstall. Good luck on remembering which they are.
Extra Textures:
You may have noticed there's an extra textures folder. That's because I made a few color variants of the arming cap that I decided not to use.
Feel free to replace and mix and match the textures at your own discretion, just remember to change the texture directory path of the coif mesh in NifSkope or change the name of the file when you replace one.
Incompatibilities:
None. The mod is packaged so that you can install whatever segment you want. If there's a conflict or heavy clipping with another armor mod you install, decide which you want to use and
either enable or disable that particular option of this mod in the BAIN subpackages. There may be soft issues such as clipping with other body, race and armor mods and I unfortunately have no control over that.
It's beyond the scope of my life to ensure these will blend seamlessly with everything out there.
Rights and Limitations:
While I would love to say that this mod is freely open to edit and reconfiguration in other mods, I did not create the original meshes or textures for this mod.
As such, these are not my sole intellectual property and as far as I know, it's not my decision on what limitations there may be, if any.
What I will say, is that I won't take issue with seeing the textures or meshes that I made in other mods. Seeing appropriate credit would be nice, but I don't care to stroke my ego.
Just don't be a douchenozzle and go stealing my work with claims that you created it.
I will however demand that you MUST credit Wikinger9048 if you redistribute anything from this mod out of respect for his work.
It's up to you to do your due deligence and ensure that you are not violating the rights of Wikinger9048 who was the creator of the assets which my materials are built on.
That out of the way, I hope that doesn't intimidate anyone from creating something, as I'd love to see more mods like this out there. Just do it correctly and use proper attribution.

Additional Credit to Wikinger9048 for making some of the original models and textures as a base in his Medeival Armor Resources mod, from which I humbly started!

Also to LieutenantHawk for inspiring me to make this after installing his mod Medeival Armor and Weapon Replacer.

And of course good old Toddy boi and Bethesda for the helmet models, textures and game.
Special credit goes to SARS CoV2 for forcing me to do something like this to keep me from going insane.
Take care, stay safe and strive on.
