SleekSteel - Form-Fitting Steel Armor Replacer and Stand-Alone - WIP

This armor mash-up replaces the original steel armors with versions that are more form-fitting, using a
chainmail bodysuit as a base.

In addition to the armor meshes and textures, these files also contains REPLACERS FOR THE DEFAULT STEEL BOOTS.
These boot replacers are based on THE ORIGINAL BOOTS and ELIMINATE CLIPPING. There is no longer a need for
the Tsun boot work-around from the previous version. Once you intsall the boots, your custom textures should
work fine on clip-free boots!

Main Files:

SleekSteel - Full Replacer Version - WIP v4.0
Replaces the default Steel Armor with a more form fitting version

SleekSteel - Stand-Alone - WIP v2.0
A craftable, upgradable, version of the armor.


Optional Files:

SleekSteel - Custom Texture Version - WIP v4.0
Comes complete with the necessary texture files to comlete the armor.


Misc. Files:

SleekSteel - Bootless Replacer Version - WIP v3.0
Use this version if you've already solved the clipping problems, or never had them to begin with.

Just the Boots - WIP v3.0 - OBSOLETE
If you don't want the armor, but still want the retex of the Tsun boots as a replacer, I've included a file
with just those.


Even though I've been working on this armor for a couple of weeks, on and off, it's still a work in progress.
I'm sure that bugs will pop up and changes will be made, so I'll update the files as often as needed.

Notes on the Stand-Alone Version-
Yes, this version is HEAVY ARMOR. I thought I'd do this one first, see how it works for people, and THEN do an
alternate light armor version. I didn't want to upload TWO versions, just to have twice as many mistakes to
correct. I have changed the stats to the following:
"Light" Steel (No Pauldrons) - weight 20, armor value 28, weapon adjust 45
"Heavy" Steel (With Pauldrons) - weight 25, armor value 33, weapon adjust 40

Of course the stats will probably change based on the feedback I get...Be kind! ;-)

Notes on the replacers-
The replacers will over-write the meshes in the "meshes/armor/steel/f" directory, if any exist.

However, these files WILL NOT over-write any textures in the steel armor directory. Instead, a new folder,
"SleekSteel," will be added to the "Armor" directory. This will be the home of any updates to the texture
files. ALL the replacer meshes will point to textures in this file. Since both male and female vanilla armors
share the same textures, I had to make a separate file for my female replacers.


Requirements
DIMONIZED UNP female body


To Install the Replacers:
Drop the "data" file into your "Skyrim" directory

To Uninstall the Replacers:
Delete the following Directories-
Skyrim\Data\meshes\armor\steel\f
Skyrim\Data\textures\armor\sleeksteel

To Install The Stand-Alone Version:
Drop the "data" file into your "Skyrim" Directory

Also delete the following .ESP-

If you wish to use the replacer version after unistalling the Stand-Alone, you'll have to re-intall the
replacer and over-write any files when prompted.
