Umgak's wonderful aMidianBorn Armor Variants Lite integrates the many variant textures created by CaBal120 for their aMidianBorn series of retextures. The original mod page already covers patches for a number of mods to which I will be adding here. Please note that I create patches for mods I use; I do not take requests. If you don't like something I did, please feel free to modify it however you like. All my files can be shared freely.

Hold on, didn't you already upload patches for AMB AVL?
I actually created a set of files breaking up Umgak's AMB AVL into separate modules. At the time, that was a great exercise for me, but I have learned a lot since then and feel more comfortable tackling the full mod. Hence, I decided to retire my earlier edits and patch Umgak's original implementation instead.





Book Covers Skyrim

The patch for Book Covers Skyrim adds proper BCS meshes and textures to the two Atronach Forge recipes added by AMB AVL.

CHANGELOG

1.0 Initial release.

Modular Armory

The patch for Modular Armory applies matching cubemaps and environment maps to the new variants added by AMB AVL. Most of this is done in a plugin as AMB AVL uses vanilla meshes with texture sets. There was something funky about the Engraved / Polished Banded Iron Armor texture sets where the shoulder pauldron textures weren't properly swapped. I am not certain where the error is in the plugin so I brute-force fixed the issue by duplicating the original meshes. I also included LeanWolf's Better-Shaped Weapons meshes for the Skyforge sword, greatsword, and dagger.

CHANGELOG

1.0 Initial release.

Modular Armory + Wolf Armors and Weapons Retextured Patch

This is a combo patch for Wolf Armors and Weapons Retexture and the Modular Armory patch for that mod (basically using Xavbio's textures with Modular Armory mesh edits and cubemaps). I added Xavbio's new metalness maps to the two shields (Skyforge and Wolf) as well as to the texture sets for the variant Wolf Armor.

Requires Xavbio's retextures for at least the metalness maps and Modular Armory for at least the cubemap.

CHANGELOG

1.0 Initial release.

Open World Loot

The patch for Open World Loot (which also requires the Randomized Special Loot addon!) overwrites AMB AVL's distribution of the new variants and integrates them into OWL's lists instead.

CHANGELOG

1.0 Initial release.
1.1 Added some levelled lists for the Iron Sets that I'd previously missed.
1.2 Fixed wrong flag on several Iron and Ebony outfit lists.
1.3 Fixed a levelled list which still used the vanilla format.

Simple Smithing Overhaul Simplified

The patch for Simple Smithing Overhaul Simplified adjusts the crafting recipes and conditions to match SSOS. I also added temper recipes for the Savior's Hide variants and edited the (vanilla) Nordic Carved Armor recipes for some neat consistency: The black fur Nordic Armor from vanilla is crafted with a Cave Bear Pelt, the brown fur one added by AMB AVL with a regular Bear Pelt, and the white fur one added by AVL with a Snow Bear Pelt.

Note that the patch is specifically for the Simplified version of Simple Smithing Overhaul which is the one not based on WACCF. This is only because adding the SSOS crafting conditions to the plugin requires adding SSOS as a master. You can fairly quickly swap the master from SSOS to SSO in xEdit if you so desire.

CHANGELOG

1.0 Initial release.

Guard Dialogue Overhaul

The patch for Guard Dialogue Overhaul overwrites AMB AVL's dialogue condition edits with GDO's and adds the appropriate SPIKE keywords to various armors so they properly trigger certain lines of dialogue. You probably don't need this if you use Umgak's WACCF patch included with the original file (though you might still need to do CR between AMB AVL and GDO, or simply load GDO lower in the load order).

CHANGELOG

1.0 Initial release.

Immersive Sounds - Compendium

The patch for Immersive Sounds - Compendium adds the appropriate footstep sounds (a feature from ISC 3.0) to AMB AVL armors.

CHANGELOG

1.0 Initial release.
1.1 Added footstep sounds to the white variant of the Steel Armor.





COMPATIBILITY

There are a few minor conflicts between the ISC and Modular Armory patches which can easily be fixed in SSEEdit.
