RESOLUTION
The Main 2K Version is made for the highest possible quality without any performance hit.
There is also the UHD 4K Version for +2K displays and screen-archers with high VRAM setups.
Diffuses are compressed with BC7, greyscales with BC4u, and normal maps with BC3;
to benefit from DirectX11's texture compression improvements.

Ugly green grading and some visual mismatches in the female armor are also fixed (which were not present in the male version)
alongside other improvements.
AFFECTED VANILLA PARTS
Steel Plate Armor (Male)
Steel Plate Armor (Female)
Steel Plate Gloves
Steel Plate Boots
Steel Plate Helmet
