I realize it's been quite a while since anyone' s commented on this marvelous piece of art, but I would like to know where the optional files Cory Gillmore spoke of have gone. The preview images clearly show a leather color variant for the 'elder' items, but I can't seem to find these textures in any zip file, and I downloaded and checked all of them. If there was an optional file named after Cory, it's gone now, similarly to what appears to have happened sometime in 2015. Would love to see this version restored and reuploaded, as even with the color variants available, it's the best looking armor set I've seen.
After a bunch of digging around in vain, I finally remembered.
What actually happened here, is that Corys request was for a pair of near black gloves with red details as well as scabbards to match the red variant of v1.0/1.1 and after I had finished and uploaded it, I ended up deciding that I'd just go ahead and make the other color variants too. This became v1.2 of the mod, so Corys optional file became redundant and was deleted.
I'm fairly sure that the "leather" variant you see in the chest previews are actually the Elven Gauntlets. I just happened to be using them when I started making the mod, so I just didn't think to update all of the chest previews after making the EB variants. I no longer have The Witcher 2, QuickBMS, or any of the vanilla textures at this point so I'm unable to do anything about this for you I'm afraid.
I don't know how active the TW2 forum here is anymore, but you could try making a request thread for someone to swap the Elder Blood gauntlets texture to the Elven one, and to make a color matched version of the Elder Blood boots texture to go with it. Sorry I couldn't be of more help here.
It's a bit of a stretch to call this hack job "art", but I appreciate the sentiment all the same. Thanks for downloading, I'm glad you like it!
Great textures! You know what I'd love an extra ton, though? A mod to change the Ysgith armor to the Vran model. I like the style of the Vran armor better, but Ysgith has much better stats IMO. Looking forward to seeing what you do with the Vran armor
Thanks for your continued support Calmingspeed! I'm starting up the next project today, which is the Vran Armor. I just need to figure out something I can do with it, and off I go!
