About this mod

Replacer for the (in my opinion) horrible officer dresses of the UC with a more militaristic, basic officer frock.

UC Officers rejoice, UC high command heard your outcry and finally decided to replace all officer branch dress uniforms with our old line of battle frocks from the colonial wars.

No longer will we be looked down upon by other factions! Hooyah!


What is this about?

Basically I really wanted to replace the officer uniforms from the UC with anything else but the one provided. I also tried several attempts to make the original gear look better but ultimately failed, because I cannot edit meshes and could therefore not rid of this huge amount of straps and buckles, so no, this was not gonna work.
But I also did not want to just replace the uniforms with any other ingame clothing and retexture it, because I also hate reusing the same ingame assets over and over again.

So I took the meshes from the Imperial Officer Uniform mod by radicalclownfriend and did some rework to make it less Star Wars and more in line with the UC. It is just some basic texture rework and nothing fancy but at least the eyesore of the UC is gone for me. 

All credit and endorsement should obviously go to radicalclownfriend for providing the meshes and giving me the opportunity in the first place.

Visual influence comes mostly from the UNN in the series "The ExpanseReferences 

There is now also a basic system of ranks via representation on the breastplate and variation of the uniforms.

NAVY
= ENS/== LTJG/=== LT/==== CAP/==== COM/==== Rear ADM/==== Vice ADM/==== Admiral
MARINES
= 2nd LT/== 1st LT/=== CAP/=== MAJ/=== COL/=== Brigade GEN/==== Major GEN/==== General
Vanguard
(no rank batch/Privateer Captain)

The uniforms and hats can now also all be crafted via the industrial workbench with either bought or gathered "Luxury Textiles" (yeah those dresses are quite fancy) So no need to use the console anymore! 

Please note!
If you already went to MAST and met the admiralty, or did the vanguard course, visited the vigilance, there is a chance you will not see all the new variants of the gear on those very specific NPCs. To make them force the new gear to appear, please either use the console to "resurrect" them, or head over into NG+ and then you should see them in all their glory when you visit those locations again.

Very recommended additional mods


StarArmory by Kaosnyrb to load the new gear into the gameworld


Also highly recommended mods to better the factions look and feel is 
Authority apparel wardrobe by Ashfold 
followed by
UC faction palette changer by aydanford1997
for additional work on the UC.
Go check them out and load them before this one, if you want the officer uniforms from here.
