📋 About This Mod

These mods adjust the tint of crafting materials to suit seasonal color palettes based on a few principles:

1 Correct glaring omissions. (No black leather? Really?) 2 Expand the range by assigning new values to duplicates. 3 Follower starting armor must not clash with itself. 4 Adjust rather than make radical changes wherever possible. 5 Skyhold outfits must be tolerable. 6 No fuchsia anything.

These principles stood for almost a whole minute. I tried.

Organization:

The crafting materials are separated by tier to keep the script manageable. Please do not attempt to install the DLC component unless Jaws of Hakkon is installed.

Because color tints and material stats are stored in the same file, and because it is not possible to install two mods that alter the same file, these mods are incompatible with any mods that alter cloth and leather crafting material colors or stats. With this in mind, players who use Borglet's All Crafting Materials Elevated Stats for metal crafting materials may elect to raise the stats of cloth and leather crafting materials to a uniform Tier 4 or "Tier 4 Plus" using this mod. These changes are based on Borglet's "All Crafting Materials Elevated Stats" mod, but my tier progression tables are a little different from hers. Please check the enclosed documentation. Borglet's mod is available Here.

Thank You!
The biggest thank you goes to tirnoney, who coded the configurable script, and without whom this mod would not have been possible. Thanks also go to the DAI Tools forum, Nightscrawl, and borglet, for help and inspiration.
