📋 About This Mod
This mod does two things. You can choose one or both:
1) Daedric Blue Light Armor includes an esp that lets you craft and upgrade Daedric Light Armor (with the Daedric Smithing perk). The Daedric Light armor is blue and glows blue. It is made at a forge and uses the same recipe as vanilla Daedric, but uses Malachite ingots instead of Ebony Ingots. It has the stats of Dragonplate Armor, but around half the weight.
2) Daedric Blue Replacer replaces the default Daedric armor with a Blue variant that features a blue glow.
3) (Optional) If you miss that more purple tinge that was the original replacer, you can download that too.
I made this mod for use in my mod "A Friend of Time." In "A Friend of Time" it is a light armor variant of Daedric with a unique recipe involving quest items, but when I made it I thought it was too cool to sit on until "A Friend of Time's" release, so I released it as my first mod on the Nexus. I released it as a simple replacer and/or craftable light armor, about five months before "A Friend of Time" came out. Enjoy!

Finally, if you find what appears to be a problem with the mod (that isn't listed in the bug section), please let me know so I can correct it! Thank you!
The Original Color requires one of the main files. (Copy these textures into Data/textures/armor/daedric or Data/textures/armor/daedric/Daedric Blue depending on which armor you want to look the original purple-blue).
