📋 About This Mod
What this mod does:
This mod edits the textures, materials, and models of the Kaer Morhen Armour to match that of early 2013 variations of the armour set (primarily the E3 2013 and VGX 2013 trailer appearances), I attempted to make this mod as accurate as possible to the source material present, and by no means is this project "perfect".
"Dynamic Gloves" is a feature that was added when I learned how to edit item definitions, the gauntlets for (specifically) the Kaer Morhen armour will dynamically remove the bracers (upper section) when equipping the Cidarian Cavalry Armour, and a few others; you no longer need to have mods loaded that edits the Cidarian Armour, or Kaer Morhen gloves to achieve a desired appearance.
The Cidarian Cavalry Armour will also dynamically change appearance upon equip to display the elbow guards properly (only for the Kaer Morhen gauntlets)
Due to the nature of how this mod was developed, dyes added in Blood and Wine do not work in conjunction with it.
This mod was made partially upon request from The CDPR Modding Community & The Boiz discord server, with some inspiration from other mods not achieving (from my point of view) an accurate enough appearance.
