FACTIONS ARMORS AND WEAPONS RETEXTURE SE

"Watch the skies, traveler."

If you like my work, please consider leaving a tip on kofi or becoming a Patron!

This mod retextures the Thieves guild armors, Nightingale armor and weapons, Dark Brotherhood armor and robes, Vampire armors, Forsworn armor and weapons, Dawnguard armor and weapons, wolf armor set, and contains many optional consistency retextures of popular mods

Cabal120's aMidianBorn Book of Silence's wolf armor normal maps, as a base . Everything else is based on fully vanilla normal maps.

Fomod lets you pick and choose what you want.

The textures for the wolf sets use parts of Cabal120's aMidianBorn Book of Silence's wolf armor normal maps, as a base . Everything else is based on fully vanilla normal maps.

Works with every mod that also works with vanilla textures, such as Heavy armory and animated armory. If you see any major stretching or dark spots when using a mesh replacer, please let me know by linking the mod in the comments and posting a picture of the bugged area (please spoiler the picture to not take too much space) and I will see if I can fix it.

Fomod lets you pick and choose what you want.

Textures are 2k except Chest armor textures, which are 4k.

Half-res version available in Optional files (Chest, weapons and shield are 2k, everything else is 1k)

Textures Only

Cubemap addon

VANILLA FEMALE FORSWORN MESH FIX

Fixes the feathers appearing black on the vanilla female chest meshes. This happens because the mesh was modeled so it would not need to be double-sided, but still uses the double-sided flag in nifskope. Meaning the feathers facing inwards cast shadows on the feathers pointing outwards. My fix simply turns off the double-sided flag. Pretty much every mesh replacer or bodyslide conversion also fixes this issue, so this is only necessary if you are using the vanilla meshes.

WOLF ARMOR COLOR OPTIONS

Black Fur

White Fur

AmidianBorn Content Addon

Choosebetween the black fur version, white fur version or use both with the Amidian content addon / Sentinel version (default will be black fur, white wolf will use the white fur version)

WOLF ARMOR CUBEMAP ADDON MESH OPTIONS

If you choose the cubemap addon version of the Wolf armor, this page will let you choose between different options and patches for said addon.

If you install any of the bodyslide patches, it is very important that you re-generate your bodyslide outputs.

ARMOR OF THE OLD GODS REPLACER

In vanilla skyrim, the armor of the old gods is visually identical to the regular forsworn armor. This addon uses an esl-flagged esp to make it use custom textures. The goal of this version was to make it look like the white stag Hircine appears as, in his quest. This addon uses texture sets to apply the new textures, so it works with bodyslides or other mesh replacers that work with vanilla forsworn issues.

Patch for HDT-SMP Vanilla Armors available in the FOMOD

ARMOR OF THE OLD GODS REPLACER - LOTD DISPLAY PATCH

LOTD's Armor of the Old Gods uses custom unique display meshes. This mod simply overwrites them so they use my new textures

CONSISTENCY PATCHES

Consistency patches are optional retextures of modded armors, clothes and/or weapons I like. The goal of these is to make these items match my retextures. I do not ever claim that my versions are objectively better, all authors who's work I cover are extremely talented people! The original mods are always a hard requirement.

Alvante's armor replacer

Uses an esl-flagged esp to give Oblivion Artifacts Pack SE's Alvante's armor a custom look. The meshes are based on vanilla meshes. They will need patches to work correctly with bodyslides like CBBE, 3BA, HIMBO, etc. If you are able to make said patches, please feel free to post them on nexus. No need to ask for my permission first.
