Sleeves for Guards

About this mod Machine translation
Increased chance that guards will spawn with sleeves and/or fur gauntlets. The probabilities vary based on the overall climate in which they are held.
While browsing the data file, I found a mesh for the Stormcloak Armor with Sleeves. I decided to use it just for fun. I highly doubt I'm the only one who's ever done this, but I thought I'd upload it anyway.
All this mod does is take the unused mesh for the Stormcloak armor with long sleeves and use it as guards and Stormcloaks in the new armor. Now, they sometimes have long-sleeved versions of their regular armor. They also have equal opportunity to wear fur gauntlets, as some Guardsmen do not have gauntlets included in their guard uniforms. Both use the same probabilities but are not in the same list, so some guards will only have gloves, some will only have sleeves, and some will have both.
The probability breakdown is as follows:
Dawn Star-90%
Forcas -50%
Markas -25%
Mortal -75%
Rift -25%
Lonely -50%
Whiterun-50%
Wind Helm -50%
Winterhold-90%
I also made a patch to make it work with Winter Is Coming and Skyrim Cloak, which is what I use for the cloak as well as USLEEP. I'll probably do more, but updating this and the SE version while also dealing with the FOMOD stuff will take some time.
Install:
Drag and drop the .esp file into the data folder, which should be wherever you installed the game. If you're using Steam, it might be something like C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Skyrim.
Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
- Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
- Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.
Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
