    Installation

    I really recommend installing it through the Vortex Mod Manager or Mod

    Organizer 2. The installation wizard guides you through the steps, and

    it minimizes the potential for future errors. All plugins included are

    ESP files with ESL headers.

    How to get the armor

    The mod manager installer lets you choose how the armor is distributed.

    Pick as many options as you want, or leave them blank to locate the only
