📋 About This Mod
My original \'Golden Elven Horse Armour\' mod gave you two new gold textures for Bethesdas \'Horse armor pack\' plugin. This one adds a new texture, Gold & Chainmail. It keeps the gold look of the main armour but uses a new silver chainmail texture for the horse surcoat. The chainmail area of this new texture was borrowed from the all-silver version included in Badmagics \'Rogue\'s Set Full release\' (see link below). All credit to him for that. All I\'ve done is work the chainmail area from his texture into my original gold EHA and create a new normal map for it. I also tidied up the saddle area and darkened the saddle slightly to givea better definition against the gold.
