HR Ashley Alt Blue Combat Armor

WHAT THIS MOD DOES

This is a 4096-4096 retexture of Ashleys alternate blue combat squadmate armor. Diffuse, Specmap, Normalmap.

Three versions available, one smooth armor, one grunted up and damaged and one a white/pink Phoenix armor theme.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

This mod is available as a Texmod and ME3Explorer . TPF file. Texmod allows for temporary modding of textures, ME3Explorer allows for permanent changes to the gamefiles for both textures/meshes and more complex content mods.

If you're new to using Texmod, check out my guide.

If you are new to using ME3Explorer, check out the official wiki.

If you are applying mods to DLC, be sure to download the DLC fix. Just place the two dll's in your game's Win32 folder. overwrite if prompted.

It is advised you try mods using Texmod before you permanently apply mods using ME3Explorer.

COMPATIBILITY INFO

Fully compatible with the Ashley Legacy Project (by ELE08). Be aware that both mods can change the squadscreen images for this armor (if you picked the Phoenix themed version). Since hers just change the hairstyle, mine will have to be installed second so the armor colour changes are consistent. Don't worry though! I changed the hair to match with Legacy Ash =)

The helmet normalmap is shared with Shepard, Vega and Ashley. They are automatically matched because they share the same hex ID / hash. Be aware that due to a tiny change intextures between my retexture and the vanilla helmet, it's advised to apply all my mods that include this helmet across the board. This means Kaidan's default and CE armor. For Shepard, it's advised you remove the following two entries from the loaded and analyzed list in TPF Tools:

This stops the normalmap from being applied to Shepard's Cerberus Ajax Armor and will not interfere with mods that applied to it. Be aware that any mod that applies to the Ajax, Vega, Ashley or Kaidan that replaces the closed breather helmet will overwrite changes made by this mod. If you are planning to install a Cerberus Ajax retexture for Shepard, removing HMM_HGR_SANe_Norm from the list as shown above will stop it from blanket applying over Kaidan's, Vega's and Ashley's helmet retextures.

UPDATE NOTES

June 24th 2014: Phoenix themed armor added. Includes helmet and squad selection screen images.
