Dragon Priest Armor SE port (Backsteepo original mod)

This port backsteppo's Dragon Priest armor to Special Edition, the armor can be obtained by looting Krosis or using console commands.

With Backsteppo's permission, I've ported his Dragon Priest armor. You can obtain the full set by defeating Krosis (the only Dragon Priest you can find on the surface of Skyrim) or using console commands. The armor draws textures from actual Dragon Priest enemies, so that means it might look a little low-key, but if you use any Dragon Priest retextures it will affect it as well.

There is a slight clipping on the lower part of the armor (front side), but you can only see it when you draw your spells/weapons. This could be fixed by changing the skeleton of the armor and making that part of the lower robe, but instead of messing with it, I just converted the map.

Q: Will you solve the cropping problem?

A: I'd love it if I could, but frankly I'm no nifskope expert, not even mentioning that I'm very busy with my own mod project right now. If someone was more talented in nifskope to fix clipping we would all appreciate it, but it wouldn't be me.

Q: How do you get armor?

A: Fight Krosis, defeat him and take it from his body, or use console commands. I had to recreate the ESP from scratch to make it work in SE, which meant I had to copy the information and place it manually.

Q: Can you create HD textures?

A: It depends on others, the armor grabs its texture directly from the Dragon Priest in the game, which means if you check their textures thoroughly it will affect the armor as well. Last time I checked, there was an HD Dragon Priest Overhaul SE, although when I tried their textures, the hood looked lighter than the robes, which seemed odd to me, but it was a high quality background.

Q: What about the first person?

A: The original mod didn't have the first person, so I changed the first person model to elf armor (because it has a gold texture).

If someone could fix a little clipping, find a good retexture and create a first person view for the armor I would appreciate it, just make sure you credit Backsteepo.

With the authorization from Backsteppo, i have ported over his Dragon Priest armor. You may acquire the full set by defeating Krosis (the only dragon priest you can actually find on the surface of Skyrim) or by using Console commands. The armor draws its textures from the actual dragon priest enemies, so this means it might look a bit low res, but if you use any dragon priest retexture, it WILL affect this as well.

There is minor clipping with at the lower part of the armor (front side), but that's only visible when you draw your spells/weapons. This could possibly be fixed by altering the armor's skeleton and making that part of the lower robe, but won't mess around with that, i just converted the map.

Q: Will you fix the clipping issue?

A: I'd love it if i could, but frankly i'm no nifskope expert, not to even mention that i'm very busy with my own mod project at the moment. If someone more talented in nifskope would fix the clipping, we'd all appreciate it, but it won't be me.

Q: How do you get the armor?

A: Fight Krosis, beat him and take it from his body, or use console commands. I had to recreate the ESP from scratch to make it work in SE, this means i had to copy over information and manually place it.

Q: Will you create HD textures?

A: That's up to someone else, the armor grabs its textures directly from the ingame dragon priests, meaning if you overhaul their textures, it will also affect the armor. Last time i checked, there "was" an hd dragon priest overhaul for SE, though when i tried their texture, the hood looked lighter than the robe, which seemed odd to me, high quality retextures, though.

Q: What about first person?

A: the original mod had no first person, so i've changed the first person model to elven armor (since it has that golden texture to it).

If someone can fix the tiny bit of clipping, find a goo …
