SKYRIM IMMERSIVE ARMORS COMPATIBILITY PATCHES PC
If your equipment uses the word “ Circlet” in its display name (the name seen in-game), it may be ignored by the PC version of Frostfall when using SKSE. The user will not gain any warmth / coverage benefit from this equipment. If your equipment uses the ArmorJewelry keyword, it will be treated as a circlet / ring / amulet and the system will ignore it, regardless of what kind of gear it actually is. Hands Equipment: MUST use slot 33 (Hands).Īccessories: Can use any slot not reserved by another kind of equipment above. Head Equipment: MUST use slot 30 (Head) or 31 (Hair). Your equipment must also use the appropriate slot based on its type. This is all you need to do to support shields. Shields: Just make sure to use the ArmorShield keyword, and your shield will automatically grant 0 Warmth and 20 Coverage, like all other shields. You will set the warmth and coverage of this gear in the next steps.Īccessories: There is no vanilla keyword for miscellaneous accessories (such as face masks and scarfs), so there is nothing you need to do other than ensure that it won’t be ignored (see Ignored Equipment, below). You will set the warmth and coverage of this gear in the next steps. Hands Equipment: MUST use the ClothingHands or ArmorGauntlets keyword.įeet Equipment: MUST use the ClothingFeet or ArmorBoots keyword.Ĭloaks: There is no vanilla keyword for cloaks, so there is nothing you need to do other than ensure that it won’t be ignored (see Ignored Equipment, below). Head Equipment: MUST use the ClothingHead or ArmorHelmet keyword. And to be honest, your equipment should be using these keywords anyway.īody Equipment: MUST use the ClothingBody or ArmorCuirass keyword. Frostfall uses these keywords in order to determine what kind of equipment your armor is. Next, please ensure that you have given your mod-added equipment the proper vanilla game keywords used by the rest of the game. If you fail to do this, you will receive an error when injecting the keywords. This is necessary because the keywords we will be injecting will be injected into Update.esm. If it does not, open your plug-in in the Creation Kit, tick Update.esm as you are loading it, and re-save the plugin. Verify that your plug-in requires Update.esm as a master. If you make cloaks, you will need to follow the steps below. Without following the guide below, Frostfall might not assign protection to cloaks on all supported platforms. If that’s all you need, you don’t need to do anything. Otherwise, complete the entire tutorial steps 1 through 5.īy default, Frostfall assigns Fair warmth and Fair coverage to body, head, hands and feet gear that has no pre-set configuration. If you elect to use this, follow steps 1 and 2 below, and then follow these instructions. It also removes the need to use the Creation Kit, you can do everything in TES5Edit. Mator has developed the Frostfall Warmth Utility for TES5Edit, which will automate much of this process.

This works on Frostfall 3.3.1 or newer, and works on every version of Skyrim on every platform, including on the Xbox One, and regardless of whether or not the user is using SkyUI or SKSE.

If you are an armor or clothing mod author, you can give your users out-of-the-box Warmth and Coverage for your gear by following the steps below.
