FAQ has been moved to the forums tab. Don't have all the DLCs, the most recent version of this mod that didn't require them is v3.31 and the v3.32 updated plugin. Those 2 files are in the misc section of the files tab.
Install Instructions Install the main file, Armorsmith Extended v4.0
If you want the features that Armorsmith adds to all the vanilla apparel for other mods, the optional file section has AE Replacer plugins that you can use for a lot of mods out there (when installing, say yes when it asks to overwrite the original mod's plugin). There are also AE Merged plugins available. They are multiple AE Replacer plugins merged together so that you can use more mods while lowering your load order plugin count. Have all mods in their file description installed and manually remove all of the original mods' plugins as the AE Merged plugin will take all their place.
Thanks for all the love people, you put this mod in the top mods all-time list, and I'm honored.

A tutorial has been added to the forums tab This tutorial will teach you how to make your mod or a patch use: Keywords to enable the Armorsmith Extended clothing modding system. Keywords and entries to enable Valdicil's Item Sorting (or any sorting mod that uses AWKCR keywords for dynamic sorting). Keywords to enable the Legendary Modifications legendary modding system. How to make your items craftable using AWKCR's Armorsmith and Weaponsmith benches and menu categories, to avoid adding new menu category keywords. How to assign slots to your items to conform to the Slot Usage Standard for maximum compatibility with other modders' apparel.
I've redone my compatibility patches. I was up above 240 plugins so I needed to lighten my load order. All the changes from the compatibility patches have been carried over into the original plugins. That's what's up with all the new AE Replacer plugins. Also I've made some merged plugins as well. If you use the AE Merged plugins you no longer need the plugins that have been merged into them. If you're unsure of exactly which plugins are covered by each merged plugin, look at the merged plugin in NMM and it'll have a list of the included plugins. Included plugins can be disabled and deleted. Old patches were moved to miscellaneous. There's no reason to use them anymore except as a modders resource if you need to pull the changes into a non-AE plugin if a mod gets updated.
The link to Armor and Weapon Keywords Community Resource (AWKCR) under the Requirements tab of the main Description page is broken. Other links like the one in the FAQ and such are still working but the one under the Requirements tab isn't. Just thought you ought to know. I was confused as to why mine wasn't working and it was because I clicked that link and assumed AWKCR was dead and maybe I actually didn't need it, but I was just mistaken, because that dead link tricked me.
Yeah, something is broken with the site. you can't click on the link in requirements, you can't open the link in new tab, you can't copy and paste the link in the address bar, but if you go to the AWKCR page it's up and the address is the same as the link. Weird shit.
I LOVE that there are gloves added in this for outfits that dont have them, AND how they function but I cant find any? I assume I'm being an idiot. They're in the game because I can console spawn them in but I've never seen them in any shops or on any bodies.
Have I installed something wrong, or am I being an idiot and looking in the wrong place?
They're craftable in the Armorsmith bench, there is two glove menus, one for wearing with long sleeve outfits and one for short sleeve outfits. I didn't put any of the added items from this mod into leveled lists, (only color swaps that are injected through AWKCR modcols built into armor records, and Diamond City Security wearable sidearms added to their outfit records).
Genuinely, apparently the armour smith bench is someting I've just totally missed. And I think that's fine not to have them in levelled lists as long as they're accessible. I knew I was being an idiot somewhere
Having a bit of a weird issue since installing this mod; half of the guards in Diamond City are walking around in their underwear X'D
I think I've narrowed it down to an issue with the Athletic Outfit? (I tested it on a settler). It seems to be using one of the armour slots instead of the standard clothing slot, so it gets unequipped when armour is equipped.
Not even sure if it's this mod doing it, but I've only got this mod, Eli's Armour Compendium and AWKCR installed, so I just thought I'd put it out there.
You have something installed below Armormsmith in your load order editing their outfits that is stripping there slot optimization causing a slot conflict between their outfit and wearable sidearms. So if those are your only 3 mods it must be Eli's. Just put Armorsmith below Eli's and you should be good.
You click on Armor once you expand Armorsmith, then you can sort by the name field and find the Athletic Outfit. Click on that, and on the right side it will show you every version of that record you have in your load order (which is shown according to load order left to right). That's how you find the conflicting mod.
Im not getting any crafting options for invisible armor or making armor pieces appear as other sizes. idk what's happening, and im getting a little annoyed. Has anyone experienced this issue as well? Any suggestions??
Sounds like one of two things. Either you don't have the mod plugin enabled (you're missing ArmorKeywords.esm or one of the game's DLCs), or you have a mod conflict that is effecting the Armor records and reverting them back to vanilla ( can load all your active plugins in xEdit to find the conflicting mod and then adjust the load order accordingly, remove the conflict mod, or create a patch so both work together).
No update is needed for NG version of game, the base game didn't change. They just gave you free CC mods. But no I haven't made patches for all the bundled CC mods yet.
That's probably part of it, but not the whole. Myself, I've never been able to reproduce that issue on mod added power armor. It's always worked for me using AWKCR/AE, so I don't think it's just that. But it's probably part of an unidentified mod conflict. That said, you should be able to get around the issue by installing the Power Armor Glitch Fix plugin included in the AWKCR main file FOMOD, so you need to reinstall that and choose to install Power Armor Glitch Fix plugin when that choice is shown.
IIRC, at the time it was released there was more outfits in the Elianora merge that I made because some of her individual releases didn't get include in her Compendium. So that's why there isn't an old patch made by me. I don't know if she's been adding to it over the years. Have you checked any of the other AE patching collection pages?
A mod conflict on the Armor records. Load all your active plugins and look at armor records to figure out what the conflicting mod is, or change your load order moving this mod down near the bottom, but you may need to find the mod conflict if the conflicting mod is using an esl flagged esp plugin, which would load after this because of that.

Have I installed something wrong, or am I being an idiot and looking in the wrong place?
It's this bench
> still responds to comments
Hey, I just hope you know you're a boss
I think I've narrowed it down to an issue with the Athletic Outfit? (I tested it on a settler). It seems to be using one of the armour slots instead of the standard clothing slot, so it gets unequipped when armour is equipped.
Not even sure if it's this mod doing it, but I've only got this mod, Eli's Armour Compendium and AWKCR installed, so I just thought I'd put it out there.
And these aren't my only three mods, they're my only 3 armour mods (I think?).
Edit: Nevermind, I give up, I'm just gonna install a mod that changes the guards outfits to something else. Thank you anyway!
That said, you should be able to get around the issue by installing the Power Armor Glitch Fix plugin included in the AWKCR main file FOMOD, so you need to reinstall that and choose to install Power Armor Glitch Fix plugin when that choice is shown.
