There is a texture/mesh repacer thread that people point to whenever someone asks for visua updates to their game and it suddenly hit me there isnt a standard collection of clothing/armor replacing thread/list. So i set about to create this list fo mods which essentially is just a list of clothing and armor REPLACERS. I say replacers specifically because there are numerous threads/ists out there that talk about armor mods and new armor - so we wil try to keep away from completly new armors and stick with replacers . These replacers will inculde viaual replacers, bug fix replacers and complete model change replacers.

As with anything there is a structure and process to installing and using these mods and as it stands there is a base mod to all of these which is Better Bodies. Its reconmended that this is installed before anything else. While there will be mods on this list that do not require better bodies there are a few that will require that it is installed.

Thanks for this, Midge, should be very useful May I suggest adding http://www.psychodogstudios.net/forums/showthread.php?t=5264 I feel that more people need to be made aware of its existence.

You forgot http://www.fliggerty.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=62&t=2456. One of the best replacers around. Can't play without it. We also have the http://www.fliggerty.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=62&t=2467 for Better Clothes and finally the http://www.fliggerty.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=62&t=2468.

thanks for the list

Cool list! Along with the Better Fitting Gloves, there's now a nice replacer for the Slave Bracer: http://planetelderscrolls.gamespy.com/View.php?view=Mods.Detail&id=8392 on PES.

I haven't played it, but there's http://planetelderscrolls.gamespy.com/View.php?view=Mods.Detail&id=1963. Doesn't need Better Bodies.

Not sure if this counts: http://www.adul.net/index.php?p=dl_mwmods_aduls_leggings

Don't forget the various Dark Brotherhood Armor replacers out there.

I believe that Better Female Pants is edited from the vanilla mesh, so using it with Better Clothes would probably render it obsolete. Could be wrong though.
