📋 About This Mod
Better Looking Dremora by legendman About this mod ========== I was starting to get tired of the Dremora\'s crazy lookin\' faces. Whether or not it looks better is a matter of opinion, of course, but I like how it turned out. Still ugly, but not as crazy. This mod obviously wouldn\'t be compatible with any playable dremora mods, so I decided I\'d make them playable, as well. I hadn\'t seen any other mods that actually have the sound files for when you attack or get hit, so I made them myself using the game\'s audio files. For females, I used Golden Saints voice files. You may notice that the dremora have strange looking ears in the before screenshots on top. That\'s because by default, Dremora share their ear mesh with Dark Elves, and I use this great mesh: Dunmer Ears - Morrowind Style. My .esp file changes the location to give Dremora their own ears that are contained in the .rar file. They\'re just the default Dark Elf meshes, anyway. I gave them a Greater Power similar to the Adrenaline Rush and Orc Berzerk powers, and all vanilla hairstyles and eyes are useable. However I made two .esp files, because I noticed that in mods where Dremora are playable, the Dremora NPCs don\'t seem to function the way they should. I\'d suggest that if you want to play as one, create your character with the playable.esp file, then switch over to the other one afterwards. For the body textures, I use Slof\'s Male Dremora Textures HGEC Female Dremora Textures Requirements ========== Custom Race Fix - If playing as a Dremora. NPC Face Color Unlocker (To help avoid skincolors not matching) This is compatible with my Better Looking Redguards, Better Looking Wood Elves and Better Looking Dark Elves Versions ========== 1. 01 - Fixed incorrect folder name in rar file. I had Sound named Sounds. 1. 0 - Initial release. I don\'t know what you could do with this, but anyone is free to do what they want.
