============================= Light Armor Replacement Mod =============================

  • ------------------
  • Description:
  • ------------------

This mod replaces all light armor in the game to look like medium armor with proper tint applied, so you can mix and match different pieces and it will look right.

Since all light armor in the game looked pretty much the same, replacing it with medium armor adds a lot more variety and looks much better in my opinion.

This mod doesn't change stats, just the appearance of the light armor.
