I would like the sabrecat to be green with orange/yellow stripes. The armor would be red. Like Battle Cat.

Here is an example of a re-textured sabrecat http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/Images/109447

I would really like to have a green re-textured sabrecat if someone can do it. Thanks

I have no access to my modding rig atm so i can only offer you a very basic version - the computer i'm using for the next weeks is pretty slow so it's impossible to make a better one. Can't even test it, too slow to handle Skyrim but i guess it should work.

 

Install the mod first and unpack this archive to ...\Skyrim\data\ to replace the original .nif file and add the new texture.

... and if you want to delete armor parts: Download NifSkope (free tool, google), open the .nif file that comes with my archive, on the right side you see the 3D model - click on the part you want to remove, that will highlight the part and the fitting block on the left side - then click on the highlighted block (NiTriShape) and press CTRL DEL to delete, save and done.

... and if you want to enhance the texture yourself you need Photoshop or Gimp (free) with NVIDIA DDS PLUGIN (google), install, launch and open the .dds textures that come with my archive, edit them and overwrite my .dds textures / save as DX5 DDS with alpha blabla - though you have to learn image editing/texturing basics to understand the whole thing (forum,youtube).

Thank you very much ghosu! I will try it out today, and I will look into nifskope also. Thanks again, and thanks for the advice on nifskope as well. I appreciate it :smile:
