Can't find any good armour and weapon mods

Post » Sat Feb 15, 2014 12:51 pm

I've got these armours http://i.minus.com/ibi37Mln5wmiH.bmp

and these weapons http://i.minus.com/ix2fIF6i6SaAG.bmp

I would get immersive armours but it keeps failing to install on the nexus mod manager. it downloads but crashes when activating it.

I don't want skimpy armours unless they look like they suit a barbarian. My female characters have the unp body.

I can't find any other weapons that fit in TES.

I need some ranged weapons.

I keep forgetting to uninstall the forsworn armour mod.

Immersive weapons perhaps?

Didn't you use the UNPB body? Did you remove it?

that kept crashing when trying to activate it too.

I uninstalled it because of bad clipping.

Sorry for slight thread jacking but does "real girls v05" work with just UNP?

Seems the installation of Immersive armors v7 is a bit of a hit 'n miss really. Uninstalled it and tried to reinstall it - failed. Tried again - success.

Keep trying laddie.

Are you on a 32-but windows? [limited to 3 GB ram?]. If yes, then your NMM is also 32-bit [if I remember correctly]; my NMM is 64-bit

Try downloading Immersive Armors/Weapons manually, then try adding it to NMM. If that still crashes, you may need to "manually" install the mod [unzip/extract the BSA/esp to your Data Folder].

I'm not sure what the "uncompressed size" of IA/IW is, but the "compressed" size of IA-v7 is about 1 GB.

Use manual download. Not "download with manager".

And welcome to why I've taken up 3D modeling, because while a lot armors are good, none of them are what I want. Especially anything made for CBBE which is 95% skimpy :/.

yes. I'm on 32-bit windows.

that's how I install mods if they fail to start downloading.

I'll try the manual install.

Can't go wrong with manual install. It's considered archaic these days.

done the manual thing and now I have immersive weapons and Falskaar. They are both working. :)

going to try immersive armour now.

I have the biggest smile on my face right now. I haven't been this happy for ages.

My favorite weapons mod is http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/12892/?. (If you use the other, original version, you'll also need Sharlikran's compatibility patch to update it).

http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/15122/? is an excellent weapons mod as well, but is about adding a few unique items rather than expanding the general variety.

For single armors, there are a lot of good ones, I have no idea of whether they'll fit your taste, but I don't use skimpy armor:

http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/31229

http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/3104 - looks a little Giger/sci-fi, but IMO that's fine for Daedric

http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/35094 - IIRC, requires a quest

http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/37289

http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/38386/? - M & F armor

http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/39983/?- Dreamburrow has several mods worth checking out

This all you need and nothing else.

Stop downloading other mods.

You have all you need.

that's the only mod I have waited so long for back when I was an xbox user.

Internet is going slow so Immersive armours should take 35 minutes.

FALSKAAR

immersive armours (waiting for it to download)

immersive weapons

weapons of the third era

thanks for the links :)

Is SkyrRe worth downloading.

What's the best combat mod.

Do I get a cookie ? :twirl:

But yes, 32-bit NMM has problems with large mods [I am guessing due to the memory limitations of 32-bit Windows].

Anyways, I am glad to hear you were able to download and install those mods; they add a lot of great content to the game.

I must be THE only one who isn't even in the least interested in Falskaar or any of the other mods like it (can't remember their names). Like, really.

you might want to also try immersive creatures, it is highly configurable in the MCM menu, and there is also a one-click lore friendly option

I didn't know about the lore friendly option. the only thing that was stopping me from downloading the mod was the non-lore-friendly creatures.

Copy the meshes folder (within the UNP folder) to /data and the fomod folder to /data as well.
