[WIP]Wolfbane Brotherhood Armor

[Hellwolve]

As mentioned elsewhere, I've decided to start modding again, for Skyrim. I've picked a name for my project; the Wolfbane Brotherhood Armor. It'll be leather armour, inspired by Brotherhood of the Wolf, mostly, as well as Innistrad, highway men and, ofcourse, my own twisted imagination.

 

However, I need some help; I can't even get my proof-of-concept to work.

 

First things first; I'm going to make the coat. This'll be based on the Thalmor Robes. I've extracted the meshes and textures and changed the former with NifSkope to use the new textures. They show up correctly there. I've edited both the '0' and '1' mesh.

 

However, ingame, it still looks like the old Thalmor Robes.

 

Can anyone assisst me?

Watching Brotherhood of the Wolf atm :D

 

You placed the new texture in the correct folder or at least in ...Skyrim\data\textures?

Because i just tested it and it works like a charm, ThalmorRobes.dds, there is a female version as well.

Thanks for offering help :) I think that what you mentioned was also wrong, but I won't mention the most important mistake - it's too silly :sweat:

 

So, I fixed it and I now know how to retexture armor :) I hope to show some real work (instead of the exisiting texture inverted...) soon!

And, here we go, real work!

 

I've started with the coat. This'll be based on the Thalmor Robes. Though I'm far from being happy with it, here's how it looks like at the moment:

It's still a Work In Progress. I'll make my own Normal Maps and I've still got a load of details I want/need to add But I hope this'll get more people interested and following ;-)
