Name: Caine's Outfit
Version: 1.0 beta
Date: 9/10/2007
Category: Items, Objects and Clothes
Author: leomorg

Description
===========

This mod add a alternate version of DB armor to a little chest in Cheydinhall's abandoned house. It also contains an alternate texture for mnp's nighteye goggles, but you'll need the original mod.

Location
========

On the misterious abandoned house in Cheydinhall, you'll find a little jewelry box on the table upstair; There you'll find a powerful gear for the shadow riders...

Details
=======

This outfit is entirely made with 3rd party textures and meshes; I hadn't modeled or texture anything from scratch (beside of the lens on Nighteye Goggles, wich is a really junky retex), just edited them to match my needs. I'm not a modder, and I was just messing with the tools avaliable to create a gear that would fit my character Caine - isn't a big deal at all, and will most likely make no change to your life, but since I get a unexpected feedback on the outfit, I decided to release it by request. I have no interest in take any credit over other's people work - all the kudos and credit must go to the original authors and their real hard work. Remember that this is a first time experience, so, please, go easy on me :D

I must warn you that this was created for a specific char - so, I give no garantee that it will look good on your. There's some minor clipping issues, but I personally don't mind them.

Install
=======

1. Copy files to: Oblivion\Data\
2. Start Oblivion Launcher, click 'Data Files', and mark the checkmark box beside the Caine's Outfit.esp file.
3. If you have the nighteye goggles mod, you must install it first.

Uninstall
=========

1. Start Oblivion Launcher, click Data Files, and uncheck the Caine's Outfit.esp file.
2. Delete this folders associated with the mod:

Oblivion\Data\Meshes\Armor\Crimson Scar Caine's Armor
Oblivion\Data\Textures\Armor\Crimson Scar Caine's Armor

Requirements: 
=============

Oblivion Patch 1.2.0.214
Robert's male body and Exnem's female eyecandy body - this armor was made for them, and most likely won't show properly on other bodies.

Recommended mods:
=================

Nighteye goggles mod for use the alternate red lens texture - otherwise, they're only wasted hard disk space.

Incompatibility
===============

None known. I added the armor to a new container exactely to avoid any mess with leveled items. The only mod that would be imcompatible is Dimitri's Hashshashin's armor, but I have both installed and only happened something funny, but that will not crash the mod.

But if you manage to have any imcompatibility with other mods, please let me know!

Known Issues or Bugs
====================

None known. Again, let me know if you find any bugs - we can squash them together!

History
=======

0.5 beta version, 2006/10/28 - Initial release.

1.0 added a standalone skirt mesh and a unenchanted set.
