📋 About This Mod

This mod adds a heavy armor set intended for an adventurer that hasn't seen everything under the sun but has still been grizzled by their time on the road.

The design is called the Squire's Plate. It is a remake of an older outfit of mine from 2019 that a lot of people seemed to love.

This mod comes with a bunch of goodies.

-Squire's Plate

-Squire's Gauntlets

-Squire's Shoes

-Squire's Scarf

-Squire's Helmet

-Squire's Sword

The armor parts and the sword are craftable at the blacksmith forge after unlocking the Advanced Armors perk. The scarf can be crafted on the tanning rack. All items can be bought from blacksmiths and vendors. You will sometimes find adventurers wearing this armor.

The armor rating of the armor is the same as steel plate, but the pieces are signficantly lighter. This puts it in a tier of its own where, compared to late-game equipment, protection is sacrificed for mobility. This armor is flagged as Heavy Armor.

The strings, belts, and bags are SMP enabled. There are no breast physics or anything. When switching from first person to third person, some stretching may occur. This fixes itself within a second.

The mod has an optional 4k texture download. These are the original resolution of the textures during production. This download is only intended for screenarchers, as the standard textures are good enough for most purposes.

The armor is 3BA, BHUNP, HIBMO and SOSAM supported. Credits go to urbon for the HIMBO conversion, and PeptoBis for the SOSAM conversion! The helmet has beast race support. The mod is ESPFE

Enjoy, everybody!

💡 Beginner Tips

  • If you use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2, let it handle the file structure to avoid overwriting conflicts.
  • For SMP physics, make sure you have the required physics framework (like FSMP or HDT-SMP) installed and enabled.
  • Choose the 2k textures if you're on a mid-range PC; 4k can cause VRAM issues.
