I personally don’t use AGU mod but I read through the description on the mod page. it says it requires SKSE, SKYUI and XPMSE and is compatible with DSR meshes I use Ecotone dual sheath and there is an EDS mesh available for this blade. if you have the other requirements it should work with the EDS mesh I made. maybe try downloading that and see if that helps. the sword is set up as a normal type weapon. Nothing different so should also work if favorited in the menu.
You make very nice models! Just a suggestion though; perhaps you could utilize cubemaps to add a nice a metallic shine to your weapons. It would make them look much better.
It has a cube map. Chitin_e_Ebony if you want something different please feel free to change it
EDIT: I notice from your download history you haven’t downloaded this mod which tells me you have not seen it in game. I am sorry my images don’t do it justice. Perhaps give it a try first.
I added an optional file to the downloads that will add the left hand and sheath files needed to create an Ecotone Dual sheath patch for this mod. ***It requires the main file be loaded first*** as this optional file only contains the two models needed for Ecotone Dual Sheath to work. Enjoy
Great looking rendition of an awesome sword. You, sir, are a master swordsmith! May I suggest, if you say somewhere in your description that this is a lite plug in and won't count against your plug-in load, you may get a lot more downloads. I almost passed on it just because I wasn't sure I had room for it in my game. Now I just need to find me some goblins to cleave...
You are correct though. Being flagged as a lite plug in is an important tidbit that many with tight load orders search for. I will see if I can trim some fat from the character bound mini description to fit that in there. thanks for the suggestion
All Nico's latest masterpieces are esl, right brother? This has been the case since the Rivendell bow if memory serves... or was Bowgasm the first? IWBA and IWBW iron are both texture replacements without any plugin, light or otherwise. The esl is a new addition to Nico's arsenal of tools. I, for one, was most pleased that he learned this format. For awhile I had so many extra esp testers installed that my fps actually took a bit of a dip. The esl format is certainly appreciated.
Agreed. I like this format also and everything I will create from here on out will be .esl flagged if I can make it so. I believe I started doing that with the single release bows that became a part of Bowgasm. Aragorns dagger, Hadhafang and Orcrist are all .esl for SSE because they were made after the bows.
Maybe. everything I have been releasing for SSE has been flagged .esl so won’t impact your load order number. I don’t know how many items I will make or if they will be combined in the future or not.
The pack you refer to is called Nicoroshi Creations and includes mostly items I created for Oblivion which are lower poly models and lower resolution textures since at the time that was all the hardware could handle. Some of those date back to 2008. That pack is not .esl I have added some of the more recent creations like Tauriel’s daggers and Drizzt swords to that pack but have shifted gears a bit releasing IWBA as a non plug in replacer and Bowgasm as both a replacer and .esl flagged plug in compilation. So Nicoroshi creations will probably not see any more updates. For now what I am creating will be single releases as completed but flagged .esl That way it doesn’t lock people into an ‘All or nothing’ pack and also won’t impact tight load orders.
No, No, and no. All three of those were created before I started .esl flagging everything. Tauriels bow is a part of Bowgasm though which is .esl flagged. Nicoroshi Creations includes :
Doomshard Dreadweave axes Nico's Gift Nico's Scimitars Obsidian Axe The Talon of Akatosh The Bow of the Drow Wyrmfang For the Brotherhood Daggers Nicos Raven Swords Drizzt Swords Nicos Craftable arrows Tauriels Bow and arrows Tauriels Daggers The Sword of Thranduil Lothlorien Bow Quinga Bow SpiritFoxy Blade Kynareth Archery Phats Purple Glass Arrows Rivendell Bow Nicos Elven Leafblade
There is a version of it available if you also use Bowgasm.esl to keep things from doubling up in game or crafting menu. IWBA is a non-plug in replacer for all arrows and quivers. For the cost of one plug in slot (Nicoroshi Creations.esp) that's a LOT of Nico in your game.
If you want all that and still can't spare a plug in spot I recommend xEdit It has a script you can run to find any plug ins in your load order than can be flagged .esl IIRC with form IDs compressed Nicoroshi Creations can be .esl flagged. Some of the single releases might be able to be flagged .esl without compacting form IDs. xEdit is a wonderful little program.

This is only my rendition of the famous blade.
Enjoy

It is from a clothing shop mod called Apachi Divine Elegance.

Just curious
for SLE
I only use ecotone dual sheath for SSE

It is mentioned in the main description though.
