📋 About This Mod

Thanks Lubitasofta :P

Users can now use/modify do what ever they want with my textures as long as given the proper credits (:

Change Log: 1. 6 The Greatsword had a weird seam, this updates fixes that 1. 5 Fixed/Added the missing mace texture 1. 4 Adds a Complete weapon package Enjoy 1. 3 Adds Swords (Sword, Greatsword, and Dagger) Next Update will have all weapons 1. 2 Added Shield

1. 1 The helm on 1. 0 had a mistake (if you didn't notice, good) in 1. 1 I changed it all to one armor type. Looks better

I had a purpose while i did this retex. I wondered why Daedric vanilla armor didn't even look humanly made. Looked like some exoskeleton. With my modification, i wanted to add the human smithing touch to it. The metal shines because it's high grade metal (ebony). While the rest of the armor is simple, unchanged but not familiar to humans. I made a high contrast on purpose, because i enjoy it that way.

I Decided to do Stahlrim Retex next

  • Daedric Retexture from scratch, i hope you enjoy this because it took some time. I hand drew a lot of stuff here and took my time. Tried to keep it as similar as Vanilla. So it is still lore friendly

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Since this is a texture replacer, just drop the files into your Data folder and overwrite when prompted.
  • If you use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2, install it as a mod and enable it — load order doesn't matter for textures.
  • Check that you don't have other Daedric armor retextures installed, as they will conflict.
