Finally, the Steel Plate Shield from The Elder Scrolls V Skyrim

Oi, guys. Have you ever felt like there was a steel shield-shaped hole in your The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim experience? Are you a steel plate lover, but can't face the shortcomings of the steel plate shield in the game The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim?

With the "Finally, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim" Steel Plate Shield (FASPSFTESVS), you can use an actual steel plate shield in the "The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim" video game to cure the steel plate shield defect.

Bethesda Game Studios originally intended to have a steel shield in Skyrim, but they scrapped it, while its crafting and tempering recipes remain in the game's files. I think they would place its quality between dwarves and orcs. After getting tired of waiting for modifiers to make Steel Shield, I took matters into my own hands and made a model and constructed the textures to get the Steel Style aesthetic to the best of my amateur abilities (although you are free to make "better" textures if you want).

FASPSFTESVS adds a shield shield to the game, using the existing vanilla crafting and tempering recipes (you can blame Bethesda if you're unhappy with the crafting recipes), changes most shield tier lists to include this shield and changes the inventories of three steel shields (Kharjo, Salma and Gormlaith Golden-Hilt) to have plate armor-wearing NPCs use this shield instead.

Since FASPSFTESVS changes most shield leveling lists, I recommend merging the leveling lists by patching them in Wrye Bash.

I recommend you use some kind of mod manager to install it, or copy the contents of the zip file into the Data/ folder (if you know what you're doing).
