Thank you for this mod! I found it via the comments on the mod that inspired yours, and it's just what I needed. My character doesn't wear cloaks or use shields, but I still wanted to try my hand at modding/replacing textures with my own custom ones. Playing with this mod is like a mini-tutorial trial-by-error way to slowly and easily teach myself to do that!
A tip for anyone else wanting to play around with making a banner (if you're not experienced with art programs or anything, like me): Use Paint.net! It's a free art program much like GIMP, but unlike GIMP (or Photoshop) it doesn't need any additions or conversions to open and modify .dds files. It's already able to read the file format from the get-go. It's also really simple and easy to use. A bit basic, yes, but I've gotten some pretty nice effects with it and the learning curve isn't so intimidating. It's a great tool for newbies like me who've gotten frustrated by more fancy-dancy programs and gave up after failing to absorb anything from an hour-long tutorial.
Any chance for SE version, if there isn't one already? I spent a while looking for a mod just like this but I can't port/convert anything myself because I can't even get creation kit to work. :(
I dont understand why does this mod have so little amount of endorsements, but for me you are a hero, Galdran! Thank you for your time spent with this mod.
(Edited) Just realised I am a lazy piece of a human being that doesnt want to download anything and try to learn how to edit the .dds files... Still good work! xD
Dunno, but I'm okay with it the way it is. Even if only a few people find it useful, it served its purpose. If nobody had liked it, and I everyone was just complaining or calling it dumb or something like that, that would be a different story.
Its really not that difficult to edit the file, you can use free programs like paint.net.

Edit: Solved. My bad. I'd modified it in the mod's .zip, not the data folder. I apologize.
This worked for the last guy with your problem.
The 2nd option is to ask for help on the jaxonz positioner mod page.
