Alternative armor designs

Description

<p style="text-align: center;">After some time playing the game, I'm sure you might have noticed that each armor piece you craft while progressing in your journey, does actually have a different design depending on the type of materials used to make it isn't? and while it is quite cool to have these differenciate from each other (even if the same armor type), you might have wondered: "Why can't I have X armor model on this certain material? I really like its design!. Well fear not, as you can now have access to those right now!<br /><br /><strong>Example:</strong><br /><br />As a quick example on how the mod works itself, it is pretty simple actually. Lets say you are making a gold ol' chainmail helmet with copper, and you might yourself want to pick the gold chainmail design instead (the ones with read feathers on top of it) rather than its old simple and boring model, now you can choose that for a copper chainmail!<br /><br /><strong>How can I get access to these new variants?</strong><br /><br />You don't need to do anything! every armor design and variant is available since you install this mod, and to make each one of them you need the same ingredients as its original counterpart (maybe with some additional items), on a slightly different and unique pattern! mainly to avoid conflicts with other recipes.<br /><br /></p> <h4 style="text-align: center;">Things to keep in mind when using this mod:</h4> <p style="text-align: center;"><br />No recipes are cheaper than original counterparts, but instead they can be just <strong>slightly</strong> more expensive.&nbsp; (its a cosmetic option after all)<br /><br />There are actually <strong>NO</strong> new designs on the mod itself and its armor variants. And what I mean with this is that there are no different models or textures designs that are not present on the vanilla game, everything there is adapted from the game itself as cosmetic options.<br /><br />Every armor type (lamellar, brigandine, chainmail, scale, plate. forlorn and blackguard) that appears in this mod, has the same protection, durability and downsides values as with the<br />original sets in the game, they do not differ besides looks.<br /><br />Alternative Chain armor from this mod <strong>can</strong> be used to make vanilla armor, this means you can actually make Scale and Plate armor with the chainmail<br />variants from this mod without locking you from other options if you need.<br /><br /></p> <p style="text-align: center;">&nbsp;</p> <h4 style="text-align: center;"><strong>DESIGNS AVAILABLE:</strong></h4> <p style="text-align: center;">(keywords to differenciate each armor piece by their base design)</p> <p style="text-align: center;"><br /><br />As a rule of thumb, every armor design comes from a certain armor type and its exclusive to a certain material, and these are now available for the rest of the materials/metals you can use to craft the same armor type, though ofc on a certain design you won't find certain materials as these are already in the game.<br /><br />Here is the chart with all variants available for each armor set and with their distinctive names:<br /><br /></p> <div class="spoiler"> <div class="spoiler-toggle" style="text-align: center;">Lamellar armor (wood, copper &amp; bronze)</div> <div class="spoiler-text" style="text-align: center;"> <p><strong>Head:</strong><br /><br /><strong>Wooden design:</strong> "Simple" (only covers the top of the head).<br /><br /><strong>Bronze design:</strong> "With neck armor" (also coverts the back of the head)<br /><br /><strong>Exclusive desing for Copper:</strong>" With copper decoration" (it has a cross on top of the head with a matching color)<br /><br /><strong>Body:</strong><br /><br /><strong>Wooden/Copper design:</strong> "Full armguards".(has both pauldrons and armbands)<br /><br /><strong>Bronze design:</strong> "Only torso" (only some pelt on the shoulder)</p> <p><strong><br />Exclusive designs:</strong> "Only armbands"; "Pauldron only".<br /><br /></p> </div> </div> <div class="spoiler"> <div class="spoiler-toggle" style="text-align: center;">Brigandine armor (all metals)</div> <div class="spoiler-text" style="text-align: center;"><strong>Head:</strong> <br /><br /><strong>Copper design</strong>: "Skullcap" (simple rounded helmet)<br /><br /><strong>Bronze design:</strong> "Nasal" (flat helmet with nose protection)<br /><br /><strong>Iron design:</strong> "Rounded Nasal" (combined traits of previous designs)<br /><br /><strong>Meteoriciron design:</strong> "Spangenhelm" (rounded helmet with cheek armor)<br /><br /><strong>Steel design:</strong> "Long Nasal" (similar to "Rounded Nasal" but longer)</div> </div> <div class="spoiler"> <div class="spoiler-toggle" style="text-align: center;">Chainmail (all metals)</div> <div class="spoiler-text" style="text-align: center;"><strong>Head:<br /><br />Copper design</strong>: "Skullcap" (simple rounded helmet)<br /><br /><strong>Bronze design:</strong> "Nasal" (flat helmet with nose protection)<br /><br /><strong>Iron design:</strong> "Rounded Nasal" (combined traits of previous designs)<br /><br /><strong>Meteoriciron design:</strong> "Spangenhelm" (rounded helmet with cheek armor)<br /><br /><strong>Steel design:</strong> "Long Nasal" (similar to "Rounded Nasal" but longer)<br /><br /><strong>Gold design:</strong> "Top red feathers", "Blue top feathers"<br /><br /><strong>Silver design:</strong> "Side blue feathers", "Side red feathers"<br /><br /><strong>Exclusive Silver design:</strong> "Side purple feathers" [exclusive for <strong>Blackbronze</strong>]<br /><br /><strong>Body:<br /><br />Design for all metals minus Gold and Silver:</strong> "Red strapped", "Blue strapped"<br /><br /><strong>Designs for Gold and silver:&nbsp;</strong>"Simple" (no colored strap)</div> </div> <div class="spoiler"> <div class="spoiler-toggle" style="text-align: center;">Scale armor (all metals)</div> <div class="spoiler-text" style="text-align: center;"><strong>Head:&nbsp;<br
