Download Nico's Daes' Rakan Swords

Readthis for Nico's Dreadweave Daes' Rakan Swords v1.2
_______________________________________________________


Reason for this mod:
_____________________

This sword was created as a prize offered to whomever translated the Tengwar script on the Dreadweave armor.

As the design advanced two textures for the concept sword requested by the winner -Eidolon- emerged.

This one based on the texture of the armor, and another custom one created for -Eidolon-

I decided to release this one as a add-on to the Dreadweave armor, and leave the other texture in the hands of -Eidolon- to do with what he chooses.


What It Does:
______________

This mod adds two Dreadweave Daes' Rakan Swords (one off-hand parry) to the end of Ondo (Aylied) ruins.

It's sitting in front of the altar with an Aylied cask where the Dreadweave armor is located.


Installation:
______________

Unpack the archive to a known location (like my documents). Drop the folder marked 'Data' into your Oblivion directory (where the Oblivion.exe is located)

Be sure to place a checkmark next to 'Nico's Dreadweave Daes' Rakan Sword.esp' at Oblivion start-up in the Data directory.


Un-installation:
_________________

Remove the checkmark from the 'Nico's Dreadweave Daes' Rakan Sword.esp' found in your Data directory at Oblivion start-up.

If you'd also like to remove the files (not needed) they are located in folders marked 'Dae's Rakan Sword' in the meshes, and texture folders.



Known Issues:
______________

None that I know of as this was created to work along side the Dreadweave Armor mod, and contains unique meshes,textures, and icons not found in Vanilla Oblivion or any mod as of the writing of this readthis file.



Extras:
________

I have enclosed a file marked 'Hints' which contains pictures of the location of Ondo as well as the location within Ondo where the sword is located.

Use these (or not) as you see fit.


Thanks:
________

Thanks to -Eidolon- from ESF for rising to the challenge, and winning my little game of Tengwar translation as well as for providing the concept art, and feedback on the sword during creation.

Thanks also to the people who answered in my thread with awesome feedback that made this sword what it is.

Thanks also to J.R.R. Tolkien for creating Tengwar cursive.



Permissions:
_____________

It is O.K. to re-release this mod in it's original form should I become unreachable.

It is also O.K. to use the meshes, textures, and icons as a modders resource so long as credit is given for my original work.
