📋 About This Mod

Four mods for Kaidan 2 which together provide a total overhaul of appearances.

  • []ARSENAL: Upgraded look options for Kaidan's sword (glow/no glow) and bow. Custom arrows.[/]

    []ARMORY: Three upgraded look options for Kaidan's armor.[/]

    []SILVERED: Older Kaidan high poly head & body replacer.[/]

    []NPCs: High poly overhaul of the supporting NPCs.[/]

    These mods require Kaidan 2. Various options for different installations are provided in the FOMOD. Old patches for Extended Edition were very out of date and have been removed to avoid confusion. The Kaidan Revoiced AIO version can be found here.

    I've moved on to working on other projects (mainly my own follower, Val Serano) and don't have time to update these mods anymore. Thank you for the support, and I'm glad you've enjoyed my Kaidan mods! I plan to leave them up as they still work out of the box with Kaidan 2, and I give my permission to patch them to work with the various addons for Kaidan. I give my permission for anyone who wishes to adapt and upload them for Xbox.
