Why don't you make dragonbone armor to look like Ebony Mail armor instead of that crappy looking dragonbone look. Would be a welcome change. More powerful as well as sleek looking.

Looks like worn-off black paint
The engraving looks nice though

There is a mod right here on steam that makes it crafatable and unenchanted, with the ebony perk.Called Crafatble, unenchanted ebony mail.

That's actually pretty nice, reminds me of the inlay detail on the Oblivion ebony armor.

Thanks!

Do you know of a mod that basically takes away the fog effect when using ebony mail? It makes it annoying to use bows to kill sleeping and undetected foes, and it makes invisibility look stupid.

Looks really nice, thanks for this :)

There's a quest for it? I never knew it...lol....k ty peace

@saunders.bryan you need to complete the ebony mail quest, this mod is simply a retexture
saunders.bryan 16 Dec, 2013 @ 7:05pm 
I have the mod in my data file but cant find it to craft at forge's....where can I find it?

@Raptor
good luck with that.
i hope you do well in all things you try.
=D
Raptor  [author] 6 Oct, 2013 @ 11:30am 
@sarenith That is what i am hoping to do. If I can't figure out how to get him to equip the new armor, it will either be just in his inventory or in the chest in the room he is in.
Xixaltr 6 Oct, 2013 @ 11:15am 
@Raptor

i look forward to it :) . oh one thingdo you know if there is a way to put the new armor on the ebonyknight as equip or drop ?
naenae jue jue 5 Oct, 2013 @ 4:03pm 
and i still like it better then defualt :D
naenae jue jue 5 Oct, 2013 @ 4:03pm 
Awww well it still looks nice, just a little off, and odd, but good modififying.
Raptor  [author] 5 Oct, 2013 @ 10:55am 
@nein Unfortunately, the belt is part of the ebony mail's 3D model, not its textures, so even if I wanted to, I couldn't remove the belt, because I have no experience modifying item meshes
:(

@sarenith I am super busy right now, maybe during winter break or something I could try to make a whole separate armor set or edit the existing ebony mail armor

@Eukalybtus ^^^^^

@Chasrick If you mean add the retextured armor to a crafting recipe so that players would need to add a certain gem along with the ebony mail to make it look better, e.g. a black soul gem or something, I guess I could support this idea, but I will not add it to the blacksmithing menu, I always hated mods that add random nonlore-friendly items to the anvil just because that was esiest, I may add some type of altar to the Boethiah shrine, ofc this will all happen when I have time maybe during the winter.

Thanks all for subscribing :) cheers

I realize that I have not touched on this mod for a long time, thanks for replying with feedback and im sorry that I couldn't respond to everyone.
naenae jue jue 5 Oct, 2013 @ 10:16am 
You say its better, yet you don't even remove the belt. That makes the armor look ugly as fuck plz if you could get rid of the belt! Thanks if you do.
Xixaltr 20 Aug, 2013 @ 7:15am 
raptor can you make ebony mal armor set that fits with this ?
Gamedoc 26 Dec, 2012 @ 4:31pm 
i think that this mod makes the mail more intimidating, but it does not fit with the rest of the Ebony armor
chasrick3 12 Oct, 2012 @ 6:30am 
:) is it possible to add an 'option' to the crafting of the armor that requires a gemstone component to 'color' the highlight ???? that would put this over the top IMO. Good mod.
Shotsy 6 Sep, 2012 @ 4:20pm 
nice one but can u remake the rest of the armor? the helm looks crappy from behind indeed :)
Raptor  [author] 27 Aug, 2012 @ 8:38pm 
np :)
Baittz 27 Aug, 2012 @ 2:39pm 
Wow, this is so cool, ebony armor is my favorite one and made it looks even better, ty
Raptor  [author] 15 Aug, 2012 @ 3:29pm 
but it has a unique cloak enchantment, so it is the only armor that can cause damage to enemies. its also the only chest armor to have a muffle enchantment (muffle is normally only a boots enchantment)
Transwigga 15 Aug, 2012 @ 3:00pm 
Most badass armor in the game? Ebony Mail doesnt even come close to what you can craft yourself...
Raptor  [author] 15 Aug, 2012 @ 9:47am 
but I didn't edit the meshes or models at all, the ebony mail/armor does that to everyone :)
Whispelle 15 Aug, 2012 @ 9:10am 
im fine withe the armors texture and color ect. its the fact that wen i put it on, it looks like im fat or have too much muscle. the armor is too....idk armored. i make my guy look inerexic, and it looks skinnier but still fat.
The Dark One 14 Aug, 2012 @ 9:41pm 
thanks
Raptor  [author] 14 Aug, 2012 @ 4:02pm 
@direfox, I probably won't because then it won't look different and unique and that was the whole point of the mod.
direfox 14 Aug, 2012 @ 3:40pm 
Could you possibly make a retextured version of the ebony boots, gauntlets and helmet to match?
Punished Jeremy 14 Aug, 2012 @ 2:49pm 
nah i like vanilla better
Raptor  [author] 14 Aug, 2012 @ 12:06pm 
thx and I use gimp with the .dds plugin
The Dark One 14 Aug, 2012 @ 11:10am 
can you please tell me wich program to use to make a retuxe?
Parpg 14 Aug, 2012 @ 10:47am 
just because this armor look so awesome i'm going to do the quest for the armor
76561198056348013 14 Aug, 2012 @ 10:35am

Raptor  [author] 13 Aug, 2012 @ 7:24pm
