📋 About This Mod
What It Does-- Couldn't wait for a patch for shields on back (Dual Sheath Redux) for BS Bruma, so I made one for myself, using this fantastic tutorial video from dptheslothking. I thought others might find it useful.
I've only done the two most common shields--Bruma guard and iron--let me know if you'd like any others from this mod (if there are any, because most of the others I've run into use vanilla meshes already supported.
And just to be clear--this is not a full patch for BS Bruma/DSR! It only adds the mentioned shields, and does not include the new weapons left hand sheaths, which is beyond my skills ATM. I'm sure the entirety of weapons will be patched by someone more skilled than I, in the near future.
Screenshots--The screenshots use a Bruma guard armor replacer I created with assets from Yet Another Guard Armor. The mod can be found here! To Install-- After dropping the meshes into the appropriate folders in your Skyrim data folder, you'll need to re-run the DSR patcher, to update the new shields.
Other patches-- Added support for FlamerunnerFirestorm's Kvatch Guard Shield.
Links-- Bruma Armor Replacer A replacer for BS Bruma guard/chainmail/Colovian Fur armors.
Overlooked Armor Mods Numerous armor/replacer mods that can help 'historify' your game!
