Dreamburrow's Regal Assassins Armor Rebalance - Hoods with Hairs Patch
v1.0

2021-06-06

This is a patch for the hoods-with-hair add-on for Regal Assassin armor + the
rebalance of that armor.

The original RA mod had really excessive armor and gold values for these thin
items, so a rebalance patch was made. That patch skipped the version of the
hoods with hair. In checking them out I found that they had wildly
inconsistent values anyway, and were actually lower than the rebalance!

So, I've patched the hoods with hair to be the same as the hairless hood in the
rebalance, i.e. to be the same as Leather Helmet. Only last playthrough, I was
wondering why I kept getting completely different values on these things!

I considered this worth doing because the gear is gorgeous, and is especially
appropriate for assassins, thieves, mages, and (in style) Redguards, and is
a majorly different alternative to the usual "barbarian or legionnaire" leather
gear in the game.


Required, in order of installation
==================================

* "DreamBurrow's Regal Assassin Armor"
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/24342
** "DreamBurrow's Regal Assassin Armor" main file
** "zzjay and Grace Darkling's Hoods With Hairs - DreamBurrow's Regal Assassin"
add-on file
* "Dreamburrow's Regal Assassins Armour Rebalance"
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/34850
* This patch last.


Installation
============

Install as with any other mod, either with a mod manager or manually.

After installing all the required files, you should end up with meshes and
textures, and two ESP files (the rebalance overwrites the main one, and my
patch overwrites the other). This patch (like the rebalance) uses no mod
slot of its own. You can merge the ESPs via any of the usual means of
mod merging (I prefer the Merge Plugins script in TES5Edit).


Permissions and Credits
=======================

I impose no additional restrictions not imposed by the original authors of the
base mods. The RA gear itself has no restrictions at all, and the hairs mod
specifically pre-authorizes ESP patches. The relevant existing restrictions,
on the with-hair mod, are: "If we won't answer in 2 weeks u have permission to
use for free mods only. If you wish to reupload on other sites, contact me
[zzjay], but it has to be free!". No resources were used from the rebalance.

The armor design is by DreamBurrow. The addition of hair is by zzjay and Grace
Darkling. The rebalance is by thefinn. Oh, and the DreamBurrow design is
is actually a retexture of "Assassin, Rangers and Thieves Armor" by NoseGoblin
(no resources of which were used for this patch). They all get an equal share
of any Mod Rewards/Donation Points earned by this mod.
