THIS MOD IS ONLY FOR PC
Choose between Follower and Main Character
Let's start!
FOLLOWER
Go to Dragonsreach (Whiterun) and find the Achilles NPC. Don't worry if you read Ахиллес instead of his real name, this is his name with russian characters; you can rename him by downloading Extensible Follower Framework, I use this mod. You can recruit multiple followers and interact with them in many ways. Max number of followers is 50 (...maybe Myrmidons??!!). Make him your follower. Now, I advise you to overpower him, so enter the first person and open the console (stay attached to him, in front of), click on his big face, now you will see a code referring to him appear, type modav attackdamagemult 5, note that it depends on which difficulty you are playing.
If you don't know, with the console command you can add spells and perks on NPCs, just like you do on your character, for example click on Achilles NPC and type: setlevel 100 setav onehanded 100 setav weaponspeedmult 2 (2 time faster than normal. Don't exagerate, because the game could crash) modav addperk 000BABE4 (this is Armsman Rank 1) For the rest of the perks do all by yourself. Once you've done, remember that you clicked on his face, so you must click elsewhere to remove the reference code in the middle of the screen, otherwise any activity you do using the console commands will be addressed to him. Don't forget this, never.
Do you want only the Achilles' complete armor set for your character? Ok, then go to Dragonsreach, make Achilles your follower and take his complete armaments. Now cover his face, maybe with a blue mage hood and dismiss him. (he must remain in the game). Every other character than Achilles that you create with a different hair color, once putted on the Achilles helmet, the hair becomes blonde like his, for remove the default blonde hair follow this steps: Skyrim > Data > textures > armor > achilles > find hairachilles.dds and hairachilles_n.dds, now select and move them to your desktop (don't delete them). Open the game and try if it works.
You have now his armor set! You can improve, enchant and then rename the parts as you wish!
MAIN CHARACTER
Yes, you have the possibility to play as Achilles. Check the main file and download it manually, don't forget to follow the instructions in the ReadMe file if you're not expert to import files in the game. To upload my Achilles' face preset you must have installed SKSE and RaceMenu. I have completely recreated the face of Achilles, so the main character version is much more faithful than Achilles NPC. The latest is version 4.0 and gives the definitive experience: it adds a total rebuilded face of Achilles with an advanced scan technology, including hair.
If you are having trouble detecting the 4.0 file then try version 1.0
Version 4.0
SHIELD ON BACK
Do you want Achilles to place the shield on the back when not in use instead of constantly holding it in his hand? This is the mod you are looking for! The shield is positioned exactly like in the movie. The hero will bring his left hand behind his back to take the shield and will do the same when he puts it away, the animations are totally smooth, immersive and well thought out. To make this mod run well you first must install Dual Sheath Redux.
