📋 About This Mod
Background:
The Wolven Armor DLC was released on June 17, 2015, and it looked different than what we currently have today, which is the result of the dye system applied to it once the Blood and Wine expansion came out on May 30, 2016. The dye changes applied to the armor are odd, like replacing the main accent colors on the jackets and changing the overall color pallete of the armor pieces, and in my opinion degraded the quality of the armor, from both a technical standpoint and a visual one. This mod aims to finally change that, restoring it's original look and providing better dye options.
Next-Gen Update:
The Next-Gen Update brought about even more changes... for the worse. Some of the armor pieces now suddenly have incorrect shading and visual artifacts, incorrect Ray-Traced reflections, incorrect materials and a plethora of other bugs. While correcting these issues, I took the opportunity to implement more visual fixes that were never really corrected.
Dyes:
Dyes added to the sets were of really odd taste, so while restoring the default look of the armor, I took the opportunity to overhaul the dye colors and accents (not unlike my other mod for the Manticore Armor), and not only that, I added two choices of accent colors for you to choose from!
