📋 About This Mod
Description
This mod replaces the artwork of around ~550 items with new models and textures. Using mods like One of a Kind Weapons and Vanilla Staff Replacer I was able to have a base to work upon to give new models to even more items. Now they are truly unique.
This mod requires the deluxe edition of Oblivion (all DLCs). If you don't the deluxe edition DLC, you can use Wrye Bash's filter feature to filter out the DLCs you don't have when building a bashed patch.
This mod is already includes most of One of a Kind Weapons and so you should not use that mod if you are using this one. Same goes for Vanilla Staff Replacer.
I recommend installing with Wrye Bash and you can merge this into your bashed patch.
This mod is considered complete and covers virtually all unique items (as classified by the UESP) from the main game and DLCs.
Load this mod after EVE Stock Equipment Replacer.
Make sure to usea skeleton mod like Light compatible Skeleton to prevent stretching issues. Also install the main files from Artifacts Redone - HGEC Roberts Conversion after this mod, if you use Seamless - OCOv2 (or use standalone Roberts Male+HGEC body mods).
Revamp Raiment of the Crimson Scar plus Hood also works well with this mod, as Artifacts Redone doesn't replace the Raiment of the Crimson Scar.
Also check out Unique Artifacts for Unique People.
Compatibility
It is compatible with OOO+OOO Extended, provided you use a bashed patch. Other overhauls should be the similar.
Other items which I won't/can't change
Ayleid Crown of Lindai/Nenalata: Permissions problem, but they are technically unique already.
Apron of the Master Artisan/Forgemaster's Smock: There are hardly any apron replacer mods on the Nexus.
Hatred's Heart/Soul: They are best suited as being daedric in appearance, since they are found in Oblivion. I would not be able to find better models.
Dragonsword of Lainlyn: It looks almost identical to Shadowrend, but without the black and is one-handed. The model is unique enough; I feel and fits the weapon well.
Penance of Animosity/Deception/Faithlessness/Hatred/Larceny/Pride: Permissions problem.
Sands of Resolve/Brush of Truepaint: There are no remodels of these items on the Nexus.
Boots of the Eel: Not unique according to UESP. Has a weak enchantment.
Boots of Bloody Bounding/Fists of the Drunkard: Already unique in appearance.
Raiment of the Crimson Scar: Recommended to use the following mod together with Artifacts Redone to replace the model of this item: Revamp Raiment of the Crimson Scar plus Hood
