📋 About This Mod
Update: 6/18/2012 Theminblack\'s UNPB Armor Shop This is where I will be uploading all my armor mods from here on out. 6/18/2012 Glitch in the stand alone which was just brought to my attention today. Took the file down and fixed it. Uploaded the fixed version to the link above. 6/12/2012 Added a stand alone version. It can be crafted at the Skyforge under the Daedric category. It\'s titled \'Ancient Skyforge\' armor. Requires the same ingredients as the normal Ancient Nord armor and has the same stats and upgrades. Fixed weight scaling thanks to Calyps! A simple replacer for the Ancient Nord armor. I was never happy with the vanilla one, so I adjusted it a bit. It\'s a mash up of armor already existing in-game. Mainly the male Ancient Nord armor. Still figuring things out as I go. Link to my other armor: http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=18259 Disclaimer: I\'m not a professional modeler or artist of any sort. Thanks to: Dimon99 for UNP Calyps for UNPB navetsea for the amazing skin textures Bethesda for Skyrim And all Nexus modders!
