Configurable Armor Progression

Never be locked out of armor progression if you picked or made a class with the Forbidden Armor: Plate disadvantage! Now you can choose the armor type that specific materials count as.

This simply started as an experiment to make Daggerfall's armor progression more similar to modern TES games. Assuming Leather/Chain/Plate "type" are analogous to the later Light/Medium/Heavy (or even Light/Heavy) system, I redistributed them accordingly to give each "type" 4 materials.

After some discussion and testing, I made everything configurable so it will be up to the player to decide which materials count as which types and customize the game to their own taste. In any case, the default settings are modelled on the original concept.

This mod does NOT change how armor works, or the armor rating between different types.

MAIN FEATURES

• []Replaces vanilla armor with identical modded versions that can be configured to count as Leather, Chain or Plate depending on their material.

• []Each armor piece of a type has its own customizable name

  []Armor pieces that count as Leather or Chain will use the appropriate sprites

  []Enable the mod in DFU Mods menu

  []Save the Mod Settings

  []You will receive a notification that vanilla armor has been restored.

  []Save the game

  []Disable the mod in the DFU Mods menu

The mod can only update and replace armor that exists in the same scene as the player, either as loot piles or shop shelves. Any shop shelves or loot piles that you have already viewed (eg, already had their contents generated) that aren't in the same area during the initialization will not be updated. It is recommended to wait 24 hours to fully refresh shop inventory after updating.

Alternatively, you can force the mod to re-initialize by saving and loading a game to run the update again.

CONFIGURATION

[]INIT ON LOAD - Determines whether the mod will reinitialize whenever you load into a game

[]CONVERT INVENTORY - Determines whether vanilla armor in loot piles and shop shelves will be replaced with modded o
