📋 About This Mod
It's actually black now. Hopefully the Black Knife set is now a worthy successor to the Nightingale set from Skyrim. Every RPG needs to have one of these... There's already this mod that recolors the Black Knife set. My version is darker, and it doesn't remove all of the iridescent color on the scales, just makes it more muted.
This should work on both male and female characters. Only works on unaltered version of the armor, so far.
I use a reshade, so the armor might look a little different in your game.
Installation:
Put the .dcx file from this mod into your 'parts' folder -- either after unpacking your game using UXM, or after installing ModEngine2. If you don't already know the drill, other mod pages have more details on how to install mods.
