📋 About This Mod
I really love 4Unknown's mods, and this armor is no different. Truly an incredible armor mod. That being said, it is a nightmare to work with. Various issues arose in the process of converting the armor (which is why it took so long). While most HIMBO conversions, I can crank out in 20 minutes, this armor took me hours to fix the issues present. So here ya go, Northern God Armor compatible with HIMBO. Enjoy!
I've provided a SMP and non-SMP version
Original Northern God Armor is required. (link to the file download in the comments)
HDT-SMP patch required for SMP version.
Feel free to let me know if there are any problems with the conversion.

⚠️ Cons

💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have HIMBO installed and the body mesh set up before adding this mod.
- If you enable the SMP option, you'll need HDT-SMP framework and a decent GPU for physics.
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2 to avoid overwriting original armor files.
