I am incredibly excited to finally release this massive update! A lot of work has gone under the hood to not only bring you beautiful new medieval gear but also to make the world of 15th-century Bohemia feel more authentic, diverse. This update completely overhauls how armies look. Let's meet in pics for a preview on my faithful and authentic additions !  Henry and various random NPCs aura farming.

Here is everything you can expect:

This mod completely overhauls the shape, proportions, and silhouette of KCD 2's armors and clothing, bringing them much closer to surviving museum pieces and period frescoes. A lot of work has gone under the hood to not only bring you beautiful new medieval gear, but also to make the world of 15th-century Bohemia feel more authentic and diverse.

While I won't claim 100% absolute historical accuracy, every change made was exclusively inspired by surviving museum pieces, period frescoes, and the general iconography and fashion of the era.

🛡️ KEY FEATURES : THE AUTHENTIC SILHOUETTE (Mesh Overhauls)

The "Wasp Waist" Silhouette: Waists have been tightened and raised. Knights and men-at-arms of the era prized this athletic, hourglass figure. People in the end of 14th- beginning of 15th century were generally leaner than modern reenactors due to different diets and extreme calorie expenditure. Since the game only features one male body type, I made the stylistic choice to reflect this idealized, historically tailored silhouette.

Gambesons & Waist Zones: Revamp of every gambeson waist zone, with raised belts, to coordinate every asset. Now, your daggers will be displayed at the correct height!

Reshaped Cuirasses: Standard breastplates have been rounded for a better, more authentic deflection profile. The more fictionalized sets in the game (such as the Milanese and Magdeburg cuirasses) have been reshaped to look much more structurally coherent and plausible, but also awesome looking. Also added "V" shape stop ribs on simple/riding cuirasses, noble cuirasses, magdeburg cuirasses, and Zizka cuirass.

Proper Faulds: Vanilla faulds are noticeably stunted to avoid leg clipping. I have lengthened them. For the Milanese and Magdeburg sets, rather than simply stretching the textures, I added an entirely new row of faulds.

Slimmer Limbs & Corrected Joints: Vanilla arm and leg armors suffered from a bulky silhouette. Limbs have been slimmed down so the plates sit much closer to the body. Sabatons have also been slightly lengthened. A minor detail that greatly enhances visual coherence: the knees on EVERY legsplate and brigandine plates were simply put too low, so now they are at a correct height.

Snug Coifs: Mail and padded coifs have been completely refitted. They now sit tightly against the face and jawline, offering a much better visual sense of protection.

Reshaped Mail & Hauberks: Reshaped every hauberk and mailcoat for each gambeson category, with an improved look and longer, corrected lengths.

Helmet Redesigns: The Italian Bascinet (and its visor) now closely matches the "Spoleto" bascinet. Hounskull helmets generally have their sight narrowed on their visor, which by the way covers the throat a bit better. The Bell-shaped Bascinet has been reworked, and certain Kettle Hats have been adjusted to better reflect the true iron hats of the time (thanks pinterest).

Aventails : Bascinets with visors were given proper, accurate, protective mail aventails, and some prestigious bascinets (nuremberg and noble) come with vrysoun variants, a decorative padded protection put on top of mail aventails.

Complete Hood Overhaul: Hood clipping with my coifs is finally a thing of the past. I reshaped every single hood model and set up dynamic morph keys so their shape automatically adapts to whatever you're wearing—mail coifs, helmets, or cuirasses. AND the icing on the cake: PAULDRONS! Pauldrons will no longer magically vanish into thin air the moment you put on a hood. Instead, the hood mesh now dynamically morphs and drapes right over your shoulder armor!

Waffenrocks & Pourpoints: Surcoats and knight waffenrocks have been lengthened to properly fall to the knees. Every waffenrock waist has been tightened and raised, and their underlying "cuirass shape" has been made rounder to accommodate the
