📋 About This Mod
Hi everyone! Today I bring you my first Dragon Age mod.
It's a retexture for Duncan’s armor based on the Grey Warden armors from DA2 Legacy DLC.
I love the Grey Wardens of Ferelden mod and it has become a must have for me. Unfortunately it puts Duncan in a generic Warden massive heavy armor that I feel doesn’t fit him quite well. He’s a rogue and a Warden Commander and he should wear something unique, right? Thus I’ve retextured his original armor and tried to give it a more wardeny look. It's far from perfect, but it's the best I could do.
This is not a standalone armor, it only contains replacement texture files and therefore will only work on Duncan. If you want your PC to wear it, you'll need a mod that adds the armor as loot.
UPDATES: - v1. 1 Made the griffon crest slightly bigger and improved the texture of the scales.
- v1. 2 Improved normal map. If you downloaded an older version, please delete it and install this new version instead.
- Added an optional recolor of v1. 2 that matches LapisLazzuli's Grey Warden B textures.
INSTALLATION:
Download one of the two versions, decompress the file and put the content in your override folder (you can find it in Documents\BioWare\Dragon Age\packages\core).
UNINSTALLATION:
Delete it from your override folder.
COMPATIBILITY:
- This mod will conflict with any other mod that changes/retextures Duncan's armor.
- It should work fine with mods that let your Warden/companions wear Duncan's armor, as long as they don't include standalone textures.
- To make it work with Grey Wardens of Ferelden delete the following files from your override folder:
- []bdc140cr_duncan.utc
[]bdn120cr_duncan.utc
[]bec100cr_duncan.utc
[]bed100cr_duncan.utc
[]bhm300cr_duncan.utc
[]bhn100cr_duncan.utc
[]cir350cr_duncan.utc
[]pre100cr_duncan.utc
