EotW Mage Equipment Overhaul -- Long Mage Robes

also (wasn't sure whether to make another thread)

EotW Mage Equipment Overhaul -- College Mage Robes

 

They do have a retexture pack for staves n such as a WIP and plan to add a pack for Psijic etc. too. But those two ^ are finished, for both Male and Female.

 

Since STEP goes for a "vanilla, but better" aesthetic, these retextures fit in beautifully imo. Been running them on a new game and the best example I can give are the robes you find in Helgen. With this mod they still look faded and weathered, but you can see traces of a pretty pattern if you look closely. Colours aren't overly saturated, if the robe says "red robe" it's really red not some other colour. Detailing is pretty but subtle.

 

I've run into no texture weirdness so far and no bad naming (see note about colours above). Here's an image I posted on the Long Mage page to give an idea. Not all patterns are floral.

No, I guess by long robe the author meant the one that doesn't look like tunic which are also called "robe" in the game. I'm not sure what I just wrote make sense :)

Anyway both are complementary.

I think it might make sense to some, but not to me unfortunately.

 

So may I guess that all enchanted pieces of robes are affected by a combination of those 2 mods?

 

As for the retexture, I do like it. It stays pretty close to vanilla, although it might be a little too decorative for some. Also the pics on the mod page don't make it a lot easier to estimate how far the author went with the retexture (different ENBs, AA-methods, lighting mods, settings and don't forget all the anime characters...)

Ah sorry, English isn't my first language so sometimes things get lost in translation or make perfect sense but just for me :)

Now that I'm back home I can answer more accurately.

College robe include: magejourneyrobe, mageapprentice and archmage

Long robe include: warlock, necromancer and monk

The mod is just retexture so I think it affects enchanted robes as well.

The only robes that appear to not be covered (and will be covered in a separate pack) are the special ones like psijiic (probably butchered that) and greybeard. The "long" robes are the plain ones and the "college" are indeed the tunic-and-pants look. For instance, the robes you find in Helgen are "college" robes.

 

So to get the full range of robes covered, use both mods. :)

 

While some of the pics on the mod page are a little dark, and I do have an ENB in mine, I looked at them with ENB toggled off and they still look nice imo. The green robe I posted is the most "decorative" I've run into; most seem to be subtle geometric patterns.

So he has Long Robes and College Robes. He also has Robes of Skyrim, and this one is a merge between Long Robes and College Robes PLUS greybeard and Psijiic robes? That's just messy :P.

By the way, I love his work and I'm going to check his other mods right now.

 

EDIT: Robes of Skyrim has a Hearthfire addon. I think it's the same addon you find in the Long Robes page.
