RL's MABARI MADNESS README ____________________________________ WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW: ____________________________________ I have updated a few of the mabari/dog mods and have compiled them all into this mod for easier use. The contributing authors’ and their mods are: **Ishtar by File-o-soft (Original dog armor model) **DP_Dog_as_Rottweiler by DarthParametric (Will conflict with this mod) “Dog as a Rottweiler” mod will conflict with this mod as well as any mod that changes The apr_base.gda and the mabari .utc’s. **Rune Slots for Shale and Dog Companions by veetoks (Shale items not included) **Mabari Recolours - Origins & DA2 by MsBarrows **Grinning Jack Mabari Replacer by Veritrix **Blood dog, Hawke dog & War dog by Nefily **Mystery of the Missing Kaddis by theskymoves Many, thanks go to these brilliant authors for creating all of these wonderful mods. Without them, this mod would not have been possible. TO BEGIN: __________ ---------- Installation: ____________ Download the “Mabari Madness” .dazip and install with DAModManager or DAUpdater. PC DOG: Download “PC Mabari Basic Breeds” folder under “Optional Files”. Decide which breed of mabari that you prefer and put that folder into your override. (Use only ONE breed folder) Your mabari will then change to that breed. All vanilla kaddis’ and collars will still work on your new mabari. You’re done! No need to do anything else. Your dog will remain as the breed you have chosen and will not change any of the ambient mabari. To add the dog armors: ______________________ Enable your console and use the “runscript” command along with the script of the armor you fancy. (Script list and images are included with the download) The armor and collar icons will be added to your inventory. The armor replaces the kaddis/paint and is placed in that slot. Collar goes into the collar slot. When worn together, your dog will receive an “Item Set Bonus”. The armors and collars will also have rune slots that use weapon runes. The armor/collars do not conflict. Each set is completely standalone. You can add all of the different armors/collars to your inventory. To Use the Wearable Armors: ___________________________ CAUTION: ======== The dog armors will conflict with the PC basic breed. They use the same naming system. You cannot use the basic breed with the wearable armors. I apologize, but I could not find a way to add the dog armors as standalones. Download “Dog Armor Replacement Textures” file under “Optional Files”. Inside this folder are separate folders containing each of the armors that are offered. Choose the armor that you want your dog to wear. Open the armor folder and select the breed that you prefer and put that folder into your override. Make sure that you have removed or deleted the PC basic breed from your override. Each armor has been added to each breed to keep continuity. ** “Gear of the Blood Dog”, “Guise of the War Dog”, “Kit of the Concept Mabari” and “Kaddis of Barkspawn” armors will be shown as is on your dog. There are no separate breed retextures for these armors. I wanted to keep these armors true to the authors’ originals. All of the armors and collars have the same stats. You can switch out the different armor textures, but keep only one collar/armor set if you desire. CONFLICTS: __________ As previously stated; any mod that edits the apr_base.gda and the mabari .utc’s will conflict with this mod. Improved Atmosphere: For those of you that use “Improved Atmosphere” by SpaceAlex, I have included a fix. If you do not use IA, ignore this section. Download the folder “IA Fix” and replace/overwrite the IA files with mine. I did not change any of the Improved Atmosphere files, I only added the unique PC dog and an assortment of ambient mabari breeds. =========================== MABARI MADNESS SCRIPT LIST =========================== MYSTERY OF THE MISSING KADDIS BY THESKYMOVES: give_tsm_kaddis _________________________________________________ BANDING OF THE MABARI BY ROGUELASS rls_mabari_banding _________________________________________________ BRASSARD OF THE WAR HOUND BY ROGUELASS rls_warhound_brassard _________________________________________________ CUIRASS OF THE CANINE WARDEN BY ROGUELASS rls_canine_warden _________________________________________________ MABARI CINCH BY ROGUELASS rls_mabari_cinch _________________________________________________ THE HOUND'S ARMOR OF THE GREY BY ROGUELASS rls_hounds_armor _________________________________________________ GEAR OF THE BLOOD DOG BY NEFILY rls_blooddog_gear _________________________________________________ GUISE OF THE WAR DOG BY NEFILY rls_wardog_guise _________________________________________________ KIT OF THE CONCEPT MABARI BY NEFILY rls_concept_mabari _________________________________________________ KADDIS OF BARKSPAWN BY VERITRIX rls_barkspawn_kaddis _________________________________________________ THREADS OF THE MABARI BY FILEOSOFT rls_mabari_threads _________________________________________________
