I have released a file for Nicoroshi Creations that removes Tauriel, Rivendell, and Lothlorien bows from NC 1.7 because they are also added by Bowgasm.
Use that file if you use both Nicoroshi Creations, and Bowgasm together so you won't have doubled up items in game or your crafting menu. File was cleaned with xEdit after removing instances.
There are only 2 bows I have not made replacers for and both are one of a kind. Auriel's bow and the Black Bow of Fate. I plan to leave both of these as they are since both are difficult to obtain and one of a kind.
If you would like to replace either of these in your own game with a model/ texture I have made then get the Creation Kit and change the model referenced for those bows and create a new plug in for it for yourself. Since the models and textures exist it a simple matter of pulling up the bow you want to change in the CK and changing what model it is referencing then saving the plug in (new name).
Thank you for this wonderful mod! I've just installed and tested it. Finally a good bow mod that gets rid of the often oversized and unrealistic looking vanilla bows. Just a pity that AE/CC content like the Saints&Seducers bows aren't included, but you can't have everything, I guess. Now I'm gonna collect all the unique bows.
I made this before I owned AE or any CC content in my game. That is why they were not included. I now have AE with paid CC content upgrade however I have decided to spend my time maintaining my wabbajack and simply playing and enjoying the game (for a change). I have thought of simply changing the models for the Saints and Seducers bows to one of my own then creating custom textures for them.....Maybe someday I will get the itch to mod again and make that a reality
I have made a replacer for Saints and Seducers Dark and Golden bows and arrows for my wabbajack. It will require Saints and Seducers, I want better Arrows, and Bowgasm to function correctly. Here's the LINK for any interested
It changes the Dark bow to use the Drow bow model, and Dark arrows to use The Steel arrows with red Fletching. The Golden bow will use the Elven bow model with Dragonbone arrows
I love, love, LOVE this mod! THANK YOU! These are gorgeous.. just what I needed to help spice up my (third? fourth?) return to Skyrim.
Except... Dwarven? Pink? Somehow, pink is NOT a color that I would associate with a short, stocky, gruff, hairy, bearded race who (stereotypically) excel in smithing/metallurgy and technology. I would imagine a more angular bow, mostly metal(s), maybe etched with some geometric designs like you see in all their ruins.
Still, I give your mod (and your arrow mod) a 9.9 out of 10 stars and will happily enjoy the beauty here. Endorsed.. if that's still worth anything, 13 years after the initial release. :)
The wood is called Purpleheart, and is an actual image of that wood used on the bow. It is a laminate with brass colored interior and brass colored lightning bolt on the limb face. If you look at things like Dwemer cloaks the color is Purple. Not your cup of tea? That's cool but not pink. Might want to adjust the colors on your screen if it looks pink to you.
That is so cool! Thanks for the info, I've never seen that color of wood before. I do have impaired vision so my colors and brightness have definitely been tweaked... didn't think of that before commenting, sorry for the undeserved criticism.
Wow these are beautiful, thank you! Ever since getting into real life archery I've been constantly triggered by horrible looking bows in games - yours and the ones in Ghost of Tsushima have been my favorites so far :)
O.k. but anyway, these bows are the most beautiful ones there is. The vanilla bows with any retexure mod, still looks like some weapons for a 1990's game. I love your Arrows mod too. You would make me very happy if you did something for the bolts too. The vanilla ones looks like a piece of a broom stick with fins and a metal head on.
Lovely bows. Didn't include replacer for my game, so the bows feels unique. I wonder are the bow location troublesome for highly modded games. I need to go visit those places now :). Thanks, endorsed!
I run a very highly modded game. Most are in places that should not be a issue. worse case is they would either fall t othe ground or get pushed over by havok when spawned but they should still be at the locations I placed them.

Have fun modding :)

There are MANY bows in this mod.
I need specifics before I can answer
