Battlemaster armor model switches

[cKeyser]

Hey guys. I've been playing DA:I and I just got the T4 Refined Warrior Mail schematic. I don't mind the Mail look, but I personally don't like the combination of cosmetics that provide me with the most desirable stats. (I'm not sure why the highest armor version of the Mail armor has the scale mail removed)

 

What I'm looking to do is: http://imgur.com/a/GG0Fb

 

Change the models of the crafted versions of

 

Refined Battlemaster Mail > Battlemaster Mail

Battlemaster Armor Arms > Battlemaster Mail Arms

Battlemaster Armor Legs > Battlemaster Mail Legs

 

Additionally, it'd be nice to swap

 

Chromatic Greatsword > Blade of Tidarion / Sulevin Blade

 

If no one has the time, maybe it'd be possible to point me to a guide of how to do it myself?

It's not a quick job to change all that. But, once you understand the process, it's not that hard to do yourself. You need two pieces of software. Mod Maker, which you get with the DAI tools Suite Loader and HxD which is a hex editor.

Then read the "Notes for Hex Modders" file downloadable at this mod. Every armour item appearance worn by the inquisitor or companions is referenced by something called a delay load bundle hash. Change that, and you change the appearance, you just need to change the right one on the right armour piece.

If you need more help, read the guides here. The one I wrote on weapon and armour schematics might be a little advanced in places but it will tell you how to change the sword appearance.
