📋 About This Mod

Leather armor tweaks and refinement to better show underarmor and clothing + some tweaks to make the size progression more logical

See screenshots, but here are the notable changes:

  • []Built in leather "underarmor" removed from all pieces to better show underarmor

  • []Swapped the vanilla heavy armor knees with the knees from the light/medium variants and vice versa

    • []Heavy variant thighs now have an extra pad of solid leather. The left leg thigh got some pockets

    • []Upper arm sleeves were swapped for the smaller strap that the light arms use

      • []Studded only: Forearms and legs now get the screws and nuts that were only on the vanilla shoulders
        • []OPTIONAL: Patch to remove the codpiece (leather diaper) from the heavy and medium torsos

          Use mod manager of choice and hit the download button

          Overwrite any mod that includes leather armor models (I've included multiple bug fixes, so older mods fixing leather armor model bugs shouldn't be needed)

          OPTIONAL:

          No Codpiece File: Install after main file and overwrite everything

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Use a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2 to avoid overwriting issues.
