Simply Realistic Armor and Weapons (Custom NordwarUA Edition)

Summary:

A disorganized but functional armor replacer mash-up extracted from my game files & polished up enough for submission here. Heavily relying on the works of NordwarUA, this mod combines & repackages selected armor as a drop-in replacer without . ESP plugin dependency. It also offers some alternative weapon replacements.

Special Notes:

This mod was my reintroduction to modding recently. It builds on and was inspired by the concept of Project NordwarUA by ShadowofRayden, but includes different selections for the armors as well as numerous texture edits & replacements. I have no desire to take away any success from their work, and I have received their permission and that of NordwarUA before releasing this. I fully credit them for inspiring this project.

This mod includes only meshes & textures, and I have made numerous edits & adjustments here and there to suit my preferences (modifying some textures, recolouring others, adding missing alpha channels to normal maps, adding environmental maps, etc.) However, the vast majority of content remains the work of NordwarUA and other credited authors. I do not take credit for the original models or textures, only for compiling it and adding some personal touches.

Special Thanks to NordwarUA, since the majority of the armor comes from Realistic Armor, Scale Nord Armor, New Legion, NordWarUA's Vanilla Armor Replacers SSE, and NordWarUA's Race Armor Expansion. Special thanks also billyro for the use of their weapons in this mod and my other ones. Credit is also given to everyone mentioned on the pages of NordwarUA's mods, and to CD Projekt Red for the Witcher series assets used.

The Goal of this Project:

A drop-in Vanilla+ style replacer for weapons & armor with a mix of realism and fantasy, adapted to suit my own personal preferences, and to allow for customization without the use of an ESP plug-in. While I enjoy mods that change game mechanics & improve the locations, for weapons & armor I prefer to rely on the base game and vanilla items already in place. This has the added benefit of allowing players (me) to change, replace, and tweak the appearance of their game without worrying about potential save file issues, and reduces the need for patches.

This mod is something I created originally for personal use, and it's something of a work in progress. While admittedly not as polished as my other releases, it's what started my recent modding journey. Since I've been trying to get this released for some time, I felt it best to release it as-is.
