📋 About This Mod

BEAST RACE SUPPORT

Big thank you to Kuplion for adding beast race support for the helmets. Make sure to go over and install it at here.

Male Cleric Armor - Variants

Stalhrim Extra Crafting

Ethereal Elven Equipment

Description from Original Mod Page:

This mod adds two new swords and a new armour set for male and females. There is full weight-slider support and the armour should be compatible with all body mods.

The equipment is similar to ebony in stats. You can temper and enchant all items.

To obtain the crafting manual, go south of Nightgate Inn (west of Windhelm) until you reach the Wanderer's Monument. The small quest should be fairly straight-forward. (If you need help, go down to the bottom of this page.)

Beast Helmet Support

Big thank you to Kuplion for adding beast race support for the helmets. Make sure to go over and install it at here.

Optional Files

Sharp Normals: normal maps regenerated with more detail, making the edges of the metal much more prominent. The

scratches and small dents will pop out a lot more. The bolts and such

also have more shape. Get this if you like grittiness over smoothness.

Vanilla Textures: textures painted on top of vanilla assets instead of

aMidianBorn assets. You may be wondering why you would want to download

these instead of the original ones; well, for starters, the normal maps

were made by Gamwich, so it'll look extra good. Furthermore, the vanilla textures blend

together better - so the upper and lower body have less differences.

There is also more suitable contrast for environmental mapping. Swayed

Alternate Cubemaps: drastically changes the way the metal appears in-game. Simply overwrite the main files with your chosen cubemap and it

will appear that way in-game.

Compatibility

Should be compatible with all mods. If a mod drastically alters the area south of the Nightgate Inn, then there

might be some overlapping objects and such, but it shouldn't be too bad.

I have cleaned the mod with TES5EDIT.

Installation

Copy the contents of the archive folder to your Skyrim\Data folder. Activate

the .esp file in the Skyrim Launcher. That's it! Altern

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Use a mod manager like Vortex or Mod Organizer 2 to install—it's a simple drag-and-drop, but managers keep your load order clean.
