Iorveth Light Armor (Witcher 2)

+++++++++++

Some of you may have noticed that this mod was previously up on the Workshop but was taken down. This was because someone decided to upload my work without asking me first.

This version is very similar to the old one, except that the issue of the armor showing up as Jester Armor in the inventory / crafting screens has now been resolved, and brand new models have been added.

Update 03/11/2012: Further work on this mod has been put on hold as I don't have the time at the moment to keep it maintained and updated. It's still not perfect but I think it is feature complete enough for some people to get enjoyment out of it. Thanks to you all for your support.

I freely admit I was giddy as a schoolgirl after finding L0rd0fWar's Iorveth Armor models (http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=5588), but I was a little disappointed that it was classified as cloth and so had all the defensive properties of wet paper. I then set about figuring out how to turn it into a light armor set. Several hours, lots of confused fumbling and numerous different versions later, I give you Iorveth Light Armor:

Features:

- Works with both male/female characters.
- Standalone mod that doesn't replace any existing NPC armor.
- Benefits from all Light Armor perks: Agile Defender, Custom Fit etc.
- Craftable from a forge.
- Fully improvable on a workbench.
- Two different sets of Scoia'tael Armor: a basic un-enchanted version and an upgraded version complete with enchants.

How to get the armor:

Now available at the forge, under the MISC tab (requires the Steel Smithing perk):

Un-enchanted:

Scoia'tael Commando Boots
Scoia'tael Commando Gloves
Scoia'tael Commando Bandana
Scoia'tael Commando Armor

Enchanted:

Scoia'tael Captain's Boots (Muffled Movement)
Scoia'tael Captain's Gloves (x2 Sneak attack with 1H weapons)
Scoia'tael Captain's Bandana (+20% bow damage)
Scoia'tael Captain's Armor (+12% Barter / +12% 1H weapon damage)

or, if you can't be bothered to gather all the materials, you can add the items via the console:

1. Open the console with the `(tilde) key.
2. Type "help scoia 4" (without quotes). The items will show up with the necessary item codes.
3. Use the command "player.additem xxxxxxx 1" (without quotes). E.g. player.additem 0d01001 1

Known Issues:

- Bandana doesn't show on Khajiit/Argonians. The beast races need their own custom meshes for it to show properly, which I haven't got around to doing just yet.

Changelog:

Version 1.5

+ Added properly weighted armor meshes, including ones for female characters (courtesy of L0rd0fWar)
+ fixed a bug where player-enchanted armor could not be improved

(Older versions archived over at the Skyrim Nexus)

This is my first ever mod, so I wouldn't be surprised if someone finds a bug. Please let me know in the comments and I'll try to fix it asap.

A big "thank you" goes to L0rd0fWar over at the Skyrim Nexus for porting the models and for giving me permission to make the mod standalone, and to CD Projekt Red for creating/releasing their awesome Witcher 2 textures.
