 Hello! I don't post often, so please bear with me. 

So, I've decided to replay Dragon Age: Origins for the umpteenth time but for the first time as it was intended: on the computer. As such, I decided I wanted a fresh experience and have thus been modding the &*^& out of it. I'm using the Dragon Age Redesigned mod and have given all of the characters an updated look... except Alistair. 

Now, I agree that his base design is good and needs little changed. Which is why I'm having problems. I've seen screenshots of mods around which fix his complection a bit and use minor, minor tweaks that work well while leaving him mostly original looking. Only thing is that my google fu is failing me and I can't seem to find these mods. Only ones I seem able to find change him completely. 

And so, BSN, I ask for your help in directing me to where I can find such lovely Alistair mods and while you're at it, I encourage you to share your favorite mods for the kicks of it. Even if they're not what I'm looking for. (And maybe your favorite armor to put him in too)

If this sort of thing doesn't belong on this board, I do appologize. As I said- I do not forum much. I appologize and thank you all in advance.

I am a slobbering, incoherent fangirl for rak's Alistair morph. I use both the vanilla hair and Duncanstair versions (light brown hair/brown eyes).

I can't blame you one bit. Those ones are really nice!

 Armour mods I use frequently for Alistair, part 1:
The Determination of Alistair 
(One of the standard heavy armour models, but more pleasing than his splintmail for early-on, and the greenish tint of what I think is the second version is flattering to his coloring.)

The Juggernaut and Wade's Superior Dragonbone Plate have similar if not identical models; I think  this is the former, but he wears both of them alot:

It's amazing how huge a difference recolors can make. Bioware's default colors on most of the armor was pretty lack luster.

As far as mods go for armor I've been falling in love with this one: http://social.biowar...m/project/4662/

I loved the Grey Warden armor in DA2. I always thought it was a shame that there was only one "grey Warden" armor in DA:O since it was about... well... the Grey Wardens.

Yes! Both my Warden and Alistair spend a lot of time in one re-skin or another of the DA2 Warden armours. He also looks great in the Warden's Keep Warden Commander set... the blue color is good for him. The other Warden armour mod I like is this one:

The Grey Warden Runic Armor (there is also a silver variant on the Nexus I use)


I don't put him in light armour very often, but when I do it is either Underworld Armory:



or if I want to amuse myself (or he's dual wielding), the DA port of The Witcher armours:

OMG I love those mods. I have Underworld and Witcher armor mods too... I REALLY wanted to use the Runic armor but whenever I apply that mod my characters dissappear. I assume they clash with something else I have installed. So sad though. ; ;

Urgh. I hate when that happens. 

The standalone Silver Runic armour might not conflict, but it has a different feel to it:



I was putting him in this DA2 armour (the Warrior Champion set?) but I don't think the angles and spikiness are right for him:


And my mages all kit him out in Templar armour at some point. 

Re vanilla armour tints, they can be icky. There are a couple of tint overrides available, and they help with the blinding pinkness  of some of the better tiers. And when that fails, there are the Universal Dye Kit (black dye works wonders!) and The Winter Forge (also handy for toning down the overpowered stats on some modded weapons and armour).

Whew! I should really spend more time actually playing, and less time modding my game. (But I probably wont...)

I know what you mean... I have spent four solid days modding. Right now I'm playing in the toolset trying to make the perfect elf. xD I'm getting pretty close.

I like that single runic set. It's pretty nice. I've downloaded and installed the dye kit and the winter forge... but I haven't actually played far enough to test them. I get to about ostegar and start over lol.

I like him in the DA2 warden armor a lot, and I agree that the champion armor looks good... but many doesn't suit him. Also, I love that noble variation you have your one mage in. Very lovely!
