📋 About This Mod

I finally have a friend that wanted to play Baldur's Gate again. So I updated my mod. Sorry.

Anyway I want keep thanking these people below for their contributions to my first iteration.

I want to thank  legend0fthefall and  tepkunset for their great guides on making custom content from assets derived from in engine. I also would like to thank kahashi69 because I learned how to create my own custom effects and passives from his effects on his own custom assets in his Armour of Vengeance mod, I didn't steal nothing tho (I think).

Version 1. 0. 8 Edit: I want to thank dazzerfong for the scripts needed to add the hair models to the helmets, this allowed me to add the hair along with the new Claymore model. I also want to also thank Druundev for her tutorial vids on creating custom armor; while I didn't create a custom armor yet, her content was critical to me understanding the custom model/mesh process with blender. Lastly, I want to thank Kiderion aka Lykon  because I used his Anduril mod (https://www.nexusmods.com/baldursgate3/mods/303) as the comparison template for my own mod.

This is where I will thank people for version 2. When I get around to doing that.

Changes: I did an aggressive redesign of the gear. Some might not like it but that is their problem. 3 years later me looked at the gear and was enamored by how I thought a legendary weapon should be. I think I was wrong. The spoiler below should show all the changes and design philosophy.
