VANILLA ITEMS
ELVEN ARMOR
Gold version

Gold version of the elven armor, closer to vanilla

Black version of the elven armor, inspired by amidianborn content addon
Amidianborn content addon / Sentinel version

Use this option is you use the mods Amidianborn content addon or Sentinel . It will make the elven armor use the gold textures and the thalmor armor use the black textures. The gilded elven and gilded thalmor armors added by these mods do not use unique textures. They use the same textures as the regular and thalmor versions, but swap the cubemap for a golden one. Which means this option will affect their look too.
