Cat's Dust Bandit Overhaul

---

I do all of my work for free and from scratch. These models take a lot of time and effort, if you like them, please consider donating if you can to my patreon to show support. It would be greatly appreciated and show me support so I can keep working on these mods. My Ko-Fi is mostly just up for people to donate but if I ever get more support I will add more content to it and keep it updated.

After my last project I decided to take a break from art. Returning this is what I've decided to work on next. The infamous dust bandits. In default Kenshi the dust bandits share all of the same armor sets with no variations so I added some more thematic clothes for them to wear.

---

PLEASE NOTE, all of these assets are custom made by me from scratch. That includes the 3D models, textures, weight painting, ect. THEY ARE NOT EDITS, so please do not steal or reupload these without explicit permission.

This mod includes several new models and textures for the head, chest, undershirt, pants, feet and a new unique weapon.

-Head: Dust Bandits Covering, Turban, Face Wrappings, Bandanna, and Captain Head piece
-Chest: Dust Bandits Chestbelt, Chestbelt with Armguards, Cloak, and Heavy Cloak
-Pants: Dust Bandits Pants and Dust Armored Pants
-Feet: Dust Bandit Boots
-Undershirts: Dust Bandit Body Wrappings

Clothing Integration
All of the Dust Bandits and bowmen will now have a variety of clothes to pick from in addition to their default clothing. Most of the armor is a mix between light and medium set pieces that offer some dust storm protection. They also have access to a wider variety of vanilla swords.

Dust Bosses will have a chance to spawn with a unique captains hat and the heavy dust bandit cloak with the armored dust bandit pants.

The Dust King will spawn with a unique variation of clothing that is made of red and white silk and golden armor. These have better stats and prices and can only be found on him. He will also spawn with a unique sword now that I custom made for him.

---

Lore and Inspiration
Dust Bandits travel through the harsh desert. Because of that they avoid wearing heavy armor that will slow them down while they raid and steal. They prefer cloth and medium armor that offers better mobility and dust storm protection.

---

Default Changes
I've edited the default Dust Bandits to now include women. Before dust bandits were all men but for no known lore reason? at least from what I could find. Dust King might be crazy but crazy attracts all types. For now these are the only edits to default that I have made.

---

NPC's and Research
ALL ITEMS can be researched and crafted. Under research bench find "Cat's Clothing" then "Dust Bandit Clothing" then craft on clothing bench.

-Is this mod compatible with x?

LOAD IT AT THE BOTTOM, I have made sure that my overhaul is compatible with almost every mod possible. I have tested it with major overhaul mods such as Genesis, UWE, Reactive World and confirmed they worked together. This mod should be compatible with any other mod.

-NCE Patch?
