I was never a fan of most of the DLC armors but the Ivory armor was always the worst in my opinion. It just always looked so dumpy to me.
I looked for mods that altered the texture but there were very few and they didn't alter it enough to make me like it any better.
One day I was playing around with it and I came up with this.
I'm quite happy with it and I hope you enjoy it as well.
All files version 1.3 and 1.4 onward are now compatible with Artifacts of Skyrim
If you are updating from a prior version replace everything.
You do not want to have any DLC meshes other than those
in the [AR_Resources] folder. Textures folder is fine.
This mod features,The male sleeved meshes would go wonky when changing weight
Corrected this
Anyone who downloaded 1.3 can use the update rather than the full file
I forgot to mention that the entire reason for the update was that all files are now compatible with Artifacts of Skyrim
Crafting now included in all files
Added unique inventory meshes
Created a female Alternate model
Created more options to choose from
Sleeves now included in all files, the type of file only determines what the two snow elves will be wearing
Fixed the female vampire armor first person reverting to normal textures
Included the proper cape textures
Removed a couple of bloat items that were unintentionally left while creating different file sets
Cleaned through xEdit
Ancient Falmer Armor, two versions.The armor is obtained by defeating Arch-Curate Vyrthur. On his body you will find a book titled Smithing Ivory Armor which will allow you to craft both sets of the Ivory armor if you have the Glass armor perk and you have the book in your inventory, as well as the materials to craft them
The 'regular' and probably most sought after armor can only be built at a forge. All the material is Elven with the iron ingot switched to either gold or malachite
Personally I hate cluttering the smithing window which is why I designed it to only show up if you have the book on you
Two Leveled Sets of each versions. Depending on your level, Arch-Curate Vyrthur will be wearing the armor with a standard rating and switch to a rating equivalent to Dragonscale at level 46
But you do not need to be at level 46 to upgrade the armor if you achieve the Glass armor perk and Dragon armor perk earlier
Conversely, if you beat Arch-Curate Vyrthur after level 46 but only have the Glass armor perk then you will only be offered the standard smithing option
Dragonscale equivalent will automatically replace your smithing window option once you have both Glass armor perk and Dragon armor perk
Armored CrownsThe crowns now have increased value, an armor rating, and the appropriate Editor IDs
Optional High Poly HeadsBoth versions use brows from
lthot mod
BROWS"You do generally not need to ask me permission to use my Aesthetic's series assets in follower mods or mods that edit one or a few characters."
The textures are included with this mod and you do not need
lthot BROWS, but it is a good mod that is recommended
*Shoutout to thumbincubation for creating the sleeves*
The cape is from
gechbal mod
Emperor's WillThey had no permission specifications listed
*If anyone knows of an HDT version please let me know, I love this cape*
The dark textured Ivory armor I was unable to find on the Nexus, Oldrim or Special Edition
I removed the Imperial insignia and darkened the blue as well as attempted to fill in some of the white edges
If anyone knows this mod please let me know so that I can appropriately credit them
This is compatible with everything, to the best of my knowledge, except any mod that alters the two Snow Elves or their Outfit files
While it is possible to use other vanilla textures than the ones provided I do not recommend it, I tried a High Def texture and it looked really orange
