About this mod

Adds a Tiamat-themed equippable necklace in the cloak slot. ONLY AVAILABLE FOR HUMANOID BODYTYPE 1.

Requirements
Permissions and credits
Before everything else: no, I will NOT be refitting this for any other races or body types. Getting this to work was hard enough and I don't want to spend any more time on a mod that was made mostly for personal use.
If you yourself want to refit this for your own personal use, feel free to do so, but I will NOT be doing it myself no matter how many times you comment "Can we get this for x body or x race?"


I wanted to make the necklace that my cleric of Tiamat durge canonically wears and put it in the game, and this was the result. This was my first time ever making armor/equipment mods and while it did give me many headaches, I'm pretty proud of the result. This was mostly made for personal use, but I decided to tweak it and share it for anyone else that might find it useful (and there's a criminal lack of Tiamat themed gear out there, so I want to do my part)

THIS MOD CONTAINS
An equippable necklace themed after Tiamat, modeled and textured from scratch by me. The necklace is equipabble through the Cloak slot and is merely cosmetic; it doesn't have any boosts or special spells mostly because I don't know how to add them. 



The necklace is ONLY obtainable in the tutorial chest in the nautiloid; I highly recommend using Tutorial Chest Summoning to get it in preexisting playthroughs.

The necklace is available for human/elf/drow/half-elf/tiefling/githyanki bodytype 1.I will not make it available to other races or body types.

HOW TO INSTALL (AND UNINSTALL)
You need Mod Fixer and Improved UI for this mod to work. (Note that as of February 2024, the original ImprovedUI file here on Nexus has been hidden; you can download it from the Github repository).
I highly recommend installing this with the BG3 Mod Manager. You can technically use Vortex, too, but there might be some issues; so, if in doubt, use BG3MM. I can't provide any help or support with installing this mod through Vortex or manually, since I don't use these methods myself.

To install: Download the .zip file, extract it, drop the .pak file onto the BG3MM, move it to the Active Mods column, and you're done!
To uninstall: Simply move the mod to the Inactive Mods column or delete it.

KNOWN ISSUES
  • The necklace is made to fit over light armors (most of the equippable cleric stuff). If you equip them on characters wearing heavy armor you'll get clipping, and it will look like it's oddly floating over bare chests. This is intended. I will not be refitting this necklace for use with any other gear other than the one I use on my character (light armors).


  • Slightly wonky physics depending on the animation, but they generally work well.
  • When dropping the item, a cloak will appear instead of the necklace. I genuinely don't know what causes this other than it being related to the slot it uses or how to fix it. It will basically look like this:



  • Yes, I know that the game uses British English, so it should be "favour". Unfortunately, by the time I realized that, it was too late.

PERMISSIONS

  • Feel free to translate this mod or modify it for personal use (but please contact me beforehand if you plan on publishing the modified mod).
  • If you want to use the mesh/textures on your own personal equipment mods, please contact me beforehand.
  • If you want to refit this for any other races/bodytypes, go ahead, but please let me know once you're done!
