This mod is not intended to be installed manually but feel free to try if you want but don't merge incompatible version.
Use "Nordplate - SA" textures if you want the standalone version of the Steel Plate armor with the "Nordplate_chainmail_SA.esp" or just the "Nordplate - Vanilla" to replace vanilla Steel Plate Armor. Don't use both "Nordplate - SA" textures and "Nordplate - Vanilla" textures with the standalone version or there will be no differences between the two armor version ! Use "Dawnguard" textures with the "Chainmail Dawnguard.esp" for chainmail dawnguard.
