📋 About This Mod
Name: Ish\'s Armors De-shelved Version: 1. 2 Date: 5/23/2011 Category: Armor Author: ishmaeltheforsaken Source: http://www.dragonagenexus.com/downloads/file.php?id=2825 Forum: http://social.bioware.com/forum/1/topic/307/index/7371609/ ================= Requirements: ================= Dragon Age II ================= Description: ================= This is a project to remove the chest-shelves on some of the armors in Dragon Age II. There have been a lot of complaints, so I wanted to see what I could do. ================= Details: ================= Many, MANY people have made it known that they aren\'t fans of the ridiculous chest-shelves on DAII armors. Though I don\'t have a problem with them personally, I am nothing if not a kind and benificent woman, so I\'ve removed the \"crumb-catchers\" from Ser Isaac\'s armor, the Robes of the Champion, and the Warplate of the Champion. ================= Installation ================= Uninstall any previous version of my mod you may have before commencing installation of a new release Extract this archive and place the folder \"Ish\'s Armors De-shelved\" into your \"packages/core/override\" folder, overwriting if prompted. Each armor is packaged in its own .erf, so if you only want one of the edits, just delete the packages you wish not to use. ================= Un-Installation: ================= Delete the folder from your override directory. ================= Incompatibility: ================= This is incompatible with any mod that includes \"arm_medj.msh\" or \"arm_medj.mmh.\" I don\'t believe that anything like that has been released, but I mention it just in case. ================= Known Issues: ================= * None :D ================= History: ================= 5/23/2011, 1. 2 - added Warplate of the Champion 5/16/2011, 1. 1 - resolved DirectX11 problem; added Robes of the Champion; minor mesh tweaks 5/15/2011, 1. 0 - initial release; featuring Ser Isaac\'s armor ================= Contact: ================= Contact me at BSN, username: ishmaeltheforsaken ================= Credits: ================= Thanks to BioWare for creating Dragon Age II Thanks to tmp7704 for his Lightwave plugin and CONSTANT support while I was making this Thanks to InsanitySorrow for his ReadMe Generator this file is based on ================= Tools Used: ================= Insanity\'s ReadMe Generator pyGFF Lightwave 10 ERFv3 Packer ================= Licensing/Legal: ================= You must contact me and obtain my permission before re-packaging any part of this mod. If I do not respond within 2 weeks, feel free to do whatever you like with this mod.

- If you're using the Steam version, ensure mods are enabled in the launcher settings.
