📋 About This Mod
This mod is a compatibility patch between kpvw's 3BA Vanilla Armors (version 2. 4) and The Community's Cathedral Armory (version 3. 19, the latest).
Install it like any other mod (assuming you're not using NMM which if you are I'm very sorry) and make sure it overwrites 3BA Vanilla Armors.
I've gone in NifSkope and used Cathedral Armory's cubemaps and other relevant settings and essentially (sometimes literally) pasted them over to 3BA Vanilla Armors. I probably missed some, and there's probably some issues and if there are I apologize.
It's more of a use-at-your-own-risk kind of mod, except the risk is a slight mismatch between armour parts.
This is a compatibility patch that makes kpvw's 3BA Vanilla Armors work with Cathedral Armory, using Cathedral's cubemaps and settings. It's for Skyrim players who want both mods without conflicts. With 314 endorsements and 81k downloads, it's a proven fix for a niche need.

- Solves a real conflict between two popular armor mods
- Simple patch—just install and let it override
⚠️ Cons

For Skyrim modders who want the visual improvements of Cathedral Armory while keeping the 3BA body support from kpvw's mod. If you don't use both mods, skip this—it does nothing for you.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Load this patch after both Cathedral Armory and 3BA Vanilla Armors in your mod manager to ensure it overrides correctly.
- If you're using a mod manager like Vortex or MO2, let it handle the file conflicts—don't manually overwrite unless you know what you're doing.
- Check the mod's posts section for any user-reported issues with specific armor pieces before adding it to your load order.
