Shiny Armors - Vanilla

Description
This mod aims to make all the metallic armors in kenshi shiny.

I tried to use mostly vanilla files with a minimal amount of editing, with this some paint features may no longer work due to how the metal feature is set up.

- This will not work with custom armor mods that use custom textures.

- Not compatible with mods that edit paint features.

- I changed a minimal amount of data in the FCS

- in order for the armor to be metallic for everyone in game i had to add the dye feature to all factions as well as make all heavy armor dye-able, this was done in the FCS and is the only FCS change made.

- I did go through all the vanilla .dds diffuse and mask files for heavy armor and edit them to allow appropriate chrome effect, so this mod will overwrite those vanilla diffuse and mask dds files when installed.

- This effect can only be applied to armor labeled as HEAVY in the FCS this HEAVY setting not only effects the look but also the stats. Medium and light armor cannot have this effect it is just a feature of the game.

- It just works.

This should be placed later in your load order.

I was inspired to make this mod due to Lawh's Shiny Plate Armor mod. Check out his workshop.

It's nice and quite immersive; with land full of sand and a lack of water, armor MUST be more shiny than original. Thank you for your work, author! =)

There is a matching weapon shiny mod made by someone else i use it myself and suggest it on the other weapon mods i created.

@Osci Really not possible unless you completely revamped the armor and crafting system with how the devs have it set up. The weapons and armor are set up very differently in that regard.

Great mod, looks good, will never uninstall. I got one Idea to make it even better though and I don't know if its posible, but if you made its so lower quality armor is less shiny and rusty and ugly like weapons are by default. And speaking of weapons this makes me wish for a matching mod for weapons. but yeah more people need to try this mod
