I. Description
This mod came to be because I wanted to use both 'Greatsword sheaths and scabbards' and 'Skyrim Weapon De-LARP-ification Project'. Two mods that, unfortunately, couldn't be used together as they conflicted. Instead of waiting around for an unlikely compatibility patch, I decided to "get my hands dirty" and thus Greatsword Sheaths and Scabbards Redux was born.
Greatsword Sheaths and Scabbards Redux adds sheaths and scabbards to all the greatswords in Skyrim (DLC included) and makes their blades thinner (from 'Skyrim Weapon De-LARP-ification Project'). If you prefer, you can use vanilla weapon meshes. Just choose so in the NMM installer.
CHANGELOG:
v2.7.6
Optimized meshes with the latest version of SSE NIF Optimizer
v2.7.5
Port of the mod for Skyrim Special Edition
NOTICE:
The original 'Greatsword sheaths and scabbards' mod is not required.
If you are using 'Skyrim Weapon De-LARP-ification Project'. Make sure to install my mod after it.
II. Installation
Use of NMM/Mod Organizer is recommended.
If you still want to manually install it:
Folders '00' contain the short sheath textures (Basic = shared basic texture; Default = custom textures);
Folders '01' contain the short sheath meshes (Thin = thinner meshes from madcat's "De-LARP-ification Project" mod; Vanilla = vanilla style paddles™);
Folders '02' contain the full-size scabbard meshes (Thin = thinner meshes from madcat's "De-LARP-ification Project" mod; Vanilla = vanilla style paddles™);
Folders '03' contain the meshes for the Skyforge Steel greatsword (ONLY if using CaBaL120's "Book of Silence");
Folder '04' contains the full-size scabbard textures.
If you are already using DoubleBrewski's 'Greatsword sheaths and scabbards' mod or MadCat221's 'Skyrim Weapon De-LARP-ification Project' it will ask to overwrite some files. You can safely do it.

IV. Conflicts
It's not compatible with any mod that also changes the greatswords' meshes.
It is however, perfectly compatible with any weapon re-texture mod.
V. Credits
Inspiration for the mod came from DoubleBrewski's 'Greatsword sheaths and scabbards' mod.
Ebony Greatsword scabbard mesh (from the Fullsize scabbard option) created/edited by DoubleBrewski.
Credit for 'Skyrim Weapon De-LARP-ification Project' goes to MadCat221.
