About this mod

Patch between Requiem and Mage Clothing Expansion. Distributes enchanted versions of the robes.

Requirements
Permissions and credits
Acknowledgments & Credits
This patch was built using HSH SPCH - Mage Clothing Expansion Integration by Hishigami as base. I made many changes including dropping the hard WACCF requirement. Hishigami's patch is not required but please endorse it. 

Mod Overview

This patch enchants and distributes robes from the Mage Clothing Expansion into the game, distributing them to mages and loot tables in a manner consistent with how mage robes are distributed in Requiem.
  • Only the four robe types shown in the first image above have been enchanted and distributed by this patch. The new robes have a chance to appear on college members and enemy wizards and are available through loot and vendors as well.
  • When spawning, robes have a 50% chance of being the vanilla variant, while the other 50% of the time, they will be one of the new robes from Mage Clothing Expansion with an enchantment identical to their vanilla counterpart.
The enchantments on the robes are the typical ones found on mage robes ( i.e. those that provide spell cost reduction and increased magicka regeneration for various spell schools). The enchant strength on the robes varies, with different robes having different levels of the enchantments, following the Novice, Apprentice, Adept, Expert, and Master scheme.
  • Robe types 1 and 3 (refer to this image) only have Novice level enchantments.
  • Robe type 4 can be found with Apprentice and Adept enchantments.
  • Robe type 2 can be found with Expert and Master level enchantments.
Additionally, multiple variations of each robe have been created for each spell school, with recolored designs to match the corresponding enchantment's spell school. (Credits go to Hishigami. Big thanks to them!)

Requirements
1. Mage Clothing Expansion 

2. Textures from Armor and Clothing Extension. (PLUGIN NOT REQUIRED) A guide on how to get those is available in the description of Armor and Clothing Extension Robes Only. (If you already use Armor and Clothing Extension Robes Only you don't need to do anything).

3.(OPTIONAL) If you are using the "Modest" versions of the robes, you may need to regenerate the meshes using both the original bodyslide files from Mage Clothing Expansion and the included bodyslide files here. More on this here (from Hisihami's page where the bodyslide is from):

There is one caveat to mention regarding the addition of texture swapping from these modules: If you are using the shirt-on Males Robe 4 variant and/or Imperial2000's 3BA refit, remember to rebuild your meshes in BodySlide! I've went ahead with fixing the vest part's name in the former case, and re-ordered the 3BA body's part position in the latter's Robes 2-4 and ApprenticeAlt in order to get everything matched.
You don't need to rebuild anything if you're using the original shirtless Male Robes 4 and base CBBE BodySlides unless you're installing the Vagrant Robes module.



Compatibility & Optional Patches
My patch makes changes to outfits that have robes, making it a 50% chance of the NPC getting either the vanilla robe or one from Mage Clothing Expansion.
If you would prefer not to have outfit records changed, install the "No Outfits" plugin under miscellaneous files. Robes will still be distributed to level lists with this option installed. 

A compatibility patch is offered for Trad - AE - CC - Collection - Requiem Patch.
(Note: The records "LItemRobesCollegeConjuration" and "LItemRobesCollegeConjuration" appear not to have their changes carried over but they have been. The added items has just been instead added to the the "madLvl_*" sublists. )

A compatibility patch is offered for Requiem - Wizard Hats.
