Shippo69 Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Hi, I LOVE the Nordic Carved Armor from DragonBorn DLC but every time i use the DLC bad things happen...If there is any way to get NCA modded into Vanilla skyrim that would be FANTASTIC! Thank You Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
draconisking Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Sorry to tell you this but that might just be illegal. I'm no modder so I'm not 100% sure but I don't think it is a good idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJAB98 Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Yep draconisking is right, copyright law and nexus rules are against it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
varsaigen Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 (edited) As nice as it would be to be able to use some DLC-only gear in vanilla Skyrim, the above posters are correct. This is Because they are part of DLCs one must pay for, and thus, any modder to do so would be making the DLC (any part of it), free to acquire, reducing the value of the DLC. For example, Zenimax (at the time of this post), just released the Imperial Pre-Order package for Elder Scrolls Online. In it is the Imperial race, the Imperial horse, and even a pet mudcrab. Well, no one else can get these without having gotten the Imperial Pre-Order. But were someone to make the horse or pet available for public use, without Zenimax's permission (which only they can release these things. Public never gets permission), it would only devalue the Pre-Order. If you can get the horse and crab for free, why would you pay for the content? It'd be a waste of time and money! :/ Edited February 1, 2014 by varsaigen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nushnush Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Since you state that "everytime you use the DLC" you got some problems, one could assume you allready own the DLC but aren't able to play it properly for whatever reason. So there IS a possibility:One could set up a Mod to craft the items, linking to the original meshes/textures - which requires the Dragonborn DLC to be installed but not necessarily activated. As long as the bsa-Archive is in the Data folder and it is registered in Skyrim.ini, there is no need to actually activate the esm.So you wouldn't have the "bad things happening" whilst still being able to craft the armor.

varsaigen Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 Referencing, but not relying on the DLC files itself? That might actually work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urwy Posted February 3, 2014 Share Posted February 3, 2014 Referencing, but not relying on the DLC files itself? That might actually work! Sounds about right.A modder could create a separate ESP that recreates the armors from any DLC without having to activate that DLC. But those DLC's will be required to run that separate ESP because to relies on the meshes, textures and whatnot to recreate them.Quite monotonous work though.
