📋 About This Mod
Based on a request made in the DAI Modding Tools forum, I decided to try my hand at recoloring a few of the crafting materials. The specific ones available to download are: Dragon Webbing, Dragon Bone, Dragon Scales, Nugskin and Nevarrite.
- []Dragon Webbing is a dark/royal purple color. []Dragon Bone is a dark gold without the weird orange/green sheen to it. I wanted to retain the base gold color, but give it more depth than the bright vanilla metal colors AND to differentiate it from those who use LL's Crafting Recolors. [](1. 23. 17) Dragon Scales is the same dark/royal purple tint as the Dragon Webbing. [](1. 23. 17) Nugskin is black because there is no true vanilla black. []Nevarrite is darker purple, slightly more blue-tinted than red-tinted.
Material replacements of the beige portion of the default Skyhold pajamas. A cheap way to change the color without doing additional changes to crafting materials. This also has an affect on pajama retextures that use the default cotton material. Does not have an affect on crafted items made with cotton. Example shown in images.
Swaps Cotton (the beige material) into:
- []Darkened Samite
- Royal Sea Silk
Just like Skyrim, load order does matter when it comes to certain mods. Crafting material replacements are one of those categories where some mods overlap and change the same files.
My mods do not modify or otherwise touch textures for these materials, only color. As such, if you use a mod such as LL's Crafting Materials (which has retextures and recolors), my mods should be below other crafting material mods in order to receive the benefit of the new color and the new texture.
The same is true if you use other mods to only change the color, but the same files are used (e.g. 1 mod changes all metal colors and 1 mod only changes Dragonbone).
Misc Crafting Material Recolors is a cosmetic mod that changes the colors of Dragon Webbing, Dragon Bone, and Nevarrite to more eye-pleasing shades, with a 2017 update adding Nugskin and Dragon Scales. It has 232 endorsements and over 5,000 downloads, making it a niche but appreciated visual tweak for crafting enthusiasts.
