About this mod
A complete mesh & texture replacement for guard and Stormcloak armor & helmets in a more realistic style using NordwarUA assets. Includes all holds.
- Permissions and credits
- Changelogs
- Cleaner, less pixelated helmet texture with added details, improved leather, and improved normal maps
- Uses environmental mapping to give Stormcloak helmets a subtle brighter, more polished look in comparison to the guards.
- Guard cuirass & helmet armor replacement, with custom textures & meshes.
- To acknowledge the vanilla design, 'normal' guard armor features studded neck armor, while the 'scaled' version used in some holds has proper armor scales (for those who dislike this, an alternative version is provided under Optional Files).
- Most importantly - NO .ESP!
Does NOT include guard shields, boots or gauntlets. Future improvements may include these along with improved armor coloring & tweaks.
Optional files:
- Alternate armor version: This version has a plain leather collar for the (vanilla 'padded') armor in Hjaalmarch, Markarth, Dawnstar, and for the Stormcloaks, and a studded leather collar for the (vanilla 'scaled') armor for Falkreath, Riften, Solitude, Whiterun, Winterhold.
- NEW: Replacer for guard and Stormcloak helmets using a heavily modified and retextured Dawnguard mesh. (Credit: Defunkt for the original mesh and FrankFamily for the original texture base.)
- Replacer for guard boots & gloves. (Gloves by NordwarUA with fur boots using textures by CaBal, modified textures for both with environmental maps added for the metal details.)
I'm a bit new to this, so kindly let me know of any texture problems or crashing and I'll try to fix any issues.
All screenshots are taken with NO ENB - just the vanilla game, some mesh/texture mods, and Wander- A Weather Mod. My goal is to give an improved look to the vanilla game, while maintaining the general style and broader artistic intention.
Other mods used in screenshots: my custom (unreleased) armor using with NordwarUA assets, textures from CC's HQ Guard Shields SE, Cathedral Armory, Believable Weapons, Wander - A Weather Mod.
Credit: Meshes & texture base use assets created by NORDWARUA taken from Realistic Armor, Defunkt and FrankFamily for the for the original mesh and texture base used for the optional helmet replacer, CaBal & Amidianborn Book of Silence SE for the optional fur boot textures.
