Requiem - Guards Armor Replacer Patch

BRIEF OVERVIEW
This mod patches the armor from NordwarUA’s and DanielUA's excellent Guards Armor Replacer SSE so that it is compatible with Requiem v 4.0.1. For versions below 4.0.1, please see my Requiem - Out-Fitted mod.

DESCRIPTION
This mod patches the armor from NordwarUA’s and DanielUA's excellent Guards Armor Replacer SSE so that it is compatible with Requiem v 4.0.1. This is an esp replacer, which means that after installing Guard Armor Replacer, you should either delete the esp or, if using Mod Organizer, move the esp to optional. When possible, the respective armor in Requiem was replaced by the mesh in Guard Armor Replacer. Every piece or armor and every weapon added by this mod has been carefully compared with its respective Requiem counterpart and adjusted accordingly. The same careful comparison was also done with keywords and tempering recipes.  

Before I get into the specifics, let me just say that these armors are absolutely beautiful in game. I took a number of screenshots to show the various holds, but none of them truly do these armors justice. 

Replacements
The default Requiem Guard Outfits  have all been replaced by their respective Hold’s armor. The Melee Outfits were replaced with the Heavy Armor Set and the Ranged Outfits were replaced with the Light Armor Set.

The default Stormcloak armors have all been replaced with the various Rebel armors.

When possible, the armor in Requiem was replaced by the meshes from Guard Armor Replacer. This was done to maintain the core Requiem experience. 

Weapons
All the weapons added by the mod have been modified to be comparative to their Requiem counterparts. They are part of the LeveledCharacter lists and will appear randomly in generated Guards and Stormcloaks. 

Other
Fixed some minor spelling errors in armor and weapon names. 

INSTALLATION
Install with your favorite Mod Manager into your Skyrim\Data folder. The patch should be installed after Requiem. I recommend the following installation steps

STEP 1: Download the “Guards Armor Replacer” MAIN FILE. Do not download the optional file. Install this file with your Mod Manager of choice. 

STEP 2: Delete, or move to optional, the Guards_Armor_Replacer.esp. 

STEP 3: Download and install this patch BELOW Requiem.esp. It must be installed below any other Requiem patches that modify weapons, armor, etc. To use a popular patch as an example, this patch should be installed BELOW any patches for the mod Improved closefaced helmets

EXAMPLE LOAD ORDER

Requiem.esp
Requiem - Improved Closefaced Helmets.esp (Improved Closefaced Helmet Patch or similar patches)
Requiem_Guard_Armor_Replacer.esp

STEP 4: Review your load order in SSEdit and note any conflicts. Move the "Requiem_Guard_Armor_Replacer.esp" lower if needed. 

STEP 5: Run the Reqtificator and place the "Requiem for the Indifferent.esp" last in your load order. Activate it. 

STEP 6 (Optional): Review your load order in SSEdit again to make sure that the patch maintained their values.  You will likely only need to do this the first time you install the patch so you can understand what the patch does. 

A new game is recommended. If you install in an existing game, you will likely see some remnants of the original armors. When you do, you can reset the NPC inventory.
