About this mod

Distributes Fuse00's armor to specific types of NPCs with options for Xtudo's variant, plus upscaled textures and alternate plugin versions for increased immersion. Performance-optimized textures for Potato PCs also included.

I absolutely love everything Fuse00 makes, and this new one just might be my favorite (which says a lot).
So, I wanted to offer a few ways to improve the armor and get it out into the world to see it more often.

Requires the original mod

Included are:
-Upscaled Textures: the gloves, boots and cape were in 2K and main cuirass in 4K. I've upscaled them to either all 8K or all 4K.

-Altered Plugins: Light Armor plugin reduces armor values to the same as vanilla leather armor and Cloth plugin reduces armor values below fur armor, as I wanted it to be more immersive when distributing to NPCs. Also slightly reduces some of the crafting requirements. 

-SPID distribution to NPCs: This is included in a FOMOD installer so that you can choose what options you want. Due to the style of this armor, I wanted it to go specifically to Bandit Wizards and Adventurer Mages, and I also distributed it with smaller percent chance to Warlocks and Adventurer Spellswords. Other mages are unaffected. I will consider requests for additional NPC distribution. If you want more broadscale distribution to all types of mages, then check out kuroishitam's mod.
Also adds an alternate cuirass with the Fortify Magicka Regen enchantment to both versions, with a higher regen rate on the cloth than the light armor.

I have added optional files that distribute Xtudo's version of the armor, including the black armor to NPCs.

Below are the actual settings in the ini file for light armor (cloth armor is very similar). The number at the end of each row is the percent chance to distribute that particular outfit to that particular type of NPC, so you can edit the values however you'd like. Note that I did not distribute the hood w/o hair to anyone.

-Performance Options for Potato PCs
Mipmaps and BC7 compression reduces VRAM usage, especially when the files are cleaned of compression artifacts.
For Potato PCs, I've uploaded downscaled versions where the diffuse texture files are larger than normal and environment map files, which are less visible in game. This reduces VRAM usage considerably while maintaining higher visual quality, using the Octagon config files posted here.
These are optional texture-only addons and require the main file.
Choose either:
2k/1k for Baked Potatoes
or
1k/512 for Mashed Potatoes



My SPID mods:
Fashions of the Huntsmen
Alecu's Armor Collection
Traveling Mage Armor
Mahty's Dwarven Weapons
