This is called the Test Version, because it adds a lot of new things I haven't tested on other setups yet, but it is mostly final.
I'm mostly putting this out there as there is bound to be bugs here and there. (300 Weapons is a lot to manage!) So if you see any issues, let me know!
=================================
New Changes - Updated Imperial Legion Normal Map. - Added New Module: TCOSS - Weapons Of War - Updated Weapon Distribution - Price adjustments - Some bug fixes
Normal Map Update Features: = Hand Crafted in High Resolution!! (Up from 1024 -> 2048) Done while keeping the original art design in-tact. = High quality weapon Normal Map Across the Board As this normal Map is shared. = Updated many weapons environment mapping as well, and carefully weighed visual quality. Should be a pretty big visual change.
Weapons Of War Features = Adds new ranked Imperial Army Weapons/Bows/Armor/Arrows (200+ Models and Textures!!) to Imperial Legion = Each Rank is colored based on equipment: == Red/Steel = Rank 1 == Blue/Steel = Rank 2 == Blue/Bronze = Rank 3 == Red/Bronze = Rank 4 == Yellow/Bronze = Rank 5
= Adds new Imperial Legion Titles and Ranks for NPCs: Berserkers, Defenders, Legionnaires, Archers, Recruits, and Swordsmen. = Adds new Imperial Item reward system: All items are unlocked for sale retroactively based on your rank in the legion. = Adds all new Imperial Army Weapons to the Smith in Solitude, based on your rank in the army = Adds all new Imperial Army Weapons to the Camp Smiths around the map, based on your rank in the army = On joining the Legion, if you go to get outfitted, you will randomly be rewarded a set of equipment from the mod, including sword/shield/bow. Depending on the armor class picked. = Past that point you have to buy whatever else you want. = Adds equipment to some pivotal NPCs: Tullius, Generals, Various commanders, etc. = Adds Nord equipment to the Nord Soldiers as Well = You can buy Nord equipment from the Smith in Windhelm
Weapon Distribution Updates = Tried to lower how common a lot of items were. This is hard to truly balance though. = Weapon drops are more restricted based on the enemy's class: Bandits will drop dirty items more often than new ones. Rich people will use better swords, etc.
Price Adjusments = Tried to lower prices to be more normalized. If it's too high let me know
