📋 About This Mod
Y. A. A. R.(M) -------------------- This mod aims to offer a stylized, somewhat more revealing reinterpretation of the stock Armors, fitted to the Hentai Gentleman\'s Eye-Candy body. This is my third release, a package of both the steel and blackwood armors. Embarrassingly, it\'s been basically done for several months, but I never got around to uploading it for some reason. This one has no BBB, though - didn\'t make much sense given the chestplate. Not that the chestplate makes much sense in any case but... uh, getting off topic here. In any case, hopefully I achieved the \"sleek, elegant\" look I was going for. I will be periodically releasing other stock armors, similarly re-envisioned. This work is free for anyone to screw around with, though acknowledgments would be nice. -------------------- REQUIREMENTS: HGEC Body and skins installed. -------------------- INSTALLATION: Simply drag the meshes and textures folders into the data directory, and overwrite whatever comes up. Easy Peasy. Unlike my earlier mods I forgot (and somehow removed) an esp necessary for the cuirass to be loaded. This is because, as as has been stated before, I am an idiot. UNINSTALLING: Locate your Oblivion file, and proceed to data/meshes/armor/steel/f and data/meshes/armor/blackwood/f solders and remove cuirass.nif, gauntlests.net and greaves.nif; then go to your textures/armor/steel/f and textures/armor/blackwood/f folders and remove the cuirassc.dds, cuirassc_n.dds, greavesb.dds, greavesb_n.dss, lace.dds and lace_n.dss files. -------------------- ISSUES: None, so far as I am aware. Everything appears to be functioning normally. This mod is free for public use, but please remember me in the credits.
