About this mod

Project NordwarUA: A WIP to make true replacers from NordwarUA's amazing armor mods

Requirements
Permissions and credits
Project NordwarUA is a project I started a few months after NordwarUA's Vanilla Armor Replacers was released on the Nexus in early 2020.
I, like so many others, was really excited about the new armors. At least most of them. I didn't like them all, and I wanted a choice of which armors to install.
In addition Vanilla Armor Replacers came with a plugin, which (at the time) led to problems with Weapon and Armor Fixes, Morrowloot Ultimate etc.
I set out to fix this as I only wanted a few armors. I also didn't want a plugin, so I set out to make what I call a "true replacer" in every sense of that word.

There is no plugin, just meshes and textures. Once you install this mod your armor(s) will have the intended look, but without any incompatibilities with other mods unless specified. Because it doesn't have a plugin of any kind it can be safely installed/uninstalled at any time during your game. 

This mod is not standalone, its a "true" replacer with no strings attached.
This mod is also a WIP, we have other armors and shields nearly ready, we might also do some of the weapons from NordwarUA

We have mixed and matched assets from several of NordwarUA's armor mods to achieve this result. Some are barely noticeable, while others created a new model; like the Ebony Mail made to match the Ebony Armor.

Installation:

You absolutely need to download the Project NordwarUA Texture Pack. This is a compilation of textures from Vanilla Armor Replacer, Realistic Armors and Race Armor Expansion. Because of how we made the mod its better to just have all of those textures installed. Be sure to check out the recommended mods section down below for some better textures for several of NordwarUA's mods! 


CURRENTLY RELEASED

 
DWARVEN ARMOR & SHIELD

EBONY ARMOR & SHIELD

WOLF ARMOR 

FUR ARMOR

IRON ARMOR & SHIELD

LEATHER ARMOR

HIDE & STUDDED HIDE ARMOR


BASIC WOLF ARMOR 

SCALED ARMOR

KHAJIIT WEAPONS & ARMOR
A standalone version of  NordwarUA's Minor Factions Armor. The main version conflicts with Unplayable Faction Armors, so I simply removed everything that wasn't the khajiit weapons and armor. The plugin distributes the new khajiit weapons and armor to the guards in the khajiit caravans. It does not edit the merchants. A patch for BeastHHBB can be found under optional files.



Compatibility: This mod should be compatible with everything that doesn't alter the meshes and textures of the armors added by this mod.
                                Some of the armor modules will conflict with nothing, others will conflict with aMidianBorn Content Addon (read below)



Armors not compatible with aMidianBorn Content Addon : Any armor from AMB Content Addon with variations.. 

Iron Armor
Steel Armor
Ebony Armor


As much as we've tried to create patches for aMidianBorn Content Addon we didn't arrive at a satisfying result.
The "base" or "vanilla" armor will look good, it will look as intended. But it is the texture variations which causes the incompatibility.

Your game won't break or anything, the armors will just not look as intended. 
You can still have our mod and AMB Content Addon installed if you:

1. Don't install the armors listed above. Thankfully you have a choice of which of Project NordwarUA's armor modules you want to install!
2. Don't care about the incompatibility
