Could you create a mod that stops ALL the gaurds in Skyrim becoming either Stormcloak or Impirial? Just so there is still some diversaty.

anything that changes hold guards that you have downloaded, when deleted will do that.

And when I deleted it they are still naked...thumbs down

When i subbed they were almost all naked..

Tammenfamily. I'm not familiar with that Mod. But, I'm guessing, if you run both nothing will break. They'll just overlap.
Which one takes effect will depend on your load order.
However, mine changes more than just the city guards (Some mercenary factions get a bit more badass, things like that) so, if Guards Diversified doesn't change them, this Mod would still be required if you wanted their Guards and my mercenary outfits.

TL;DR Shouldn't cause crashes, might be pointless having both.

Is this mod compatible with "Gaurds Diversified 2.0"?

So does this mod makes guards from each cities look different from each other?

This looks awesome, and I love your Terran emblem in the avatar picture :D

All the guards are naked.

Riften, Whiterun and other guards are naked. I had to kill them all.

Guess whose Whiterun guards are naked again? Haha.

i completed the civil war with the empire but the soldiers are just half guard and emperial soldier

my guards in sulitude dont have any weapon and some only have a heavy armor helmet or officer helmet its only inside the city thoud them outside have all armor on please fix this else great mod but also found some dawnstar guards with normal guard armor

the riften guards need to be hard becaus the thieves guild is in the city

Also the BlackBair lodge guards were very hard! I lost my merc Sturven or something bald dude :D

I am an idiot... I kept checking Windhelm for it, and Winterhold now i know they don't have one yet! They work for dawnstar, Farlkreath, Whiterun, and the rest. But none of my mods were working, they were paused in download got a bunch working now. Thanks very much for the mod!

It may take a few in-game days/weeks to kick in if you're using an existing save.
To get round this you can manually reset the guards.

Should probably save first
Open the console (The Tilde key [Next to 1]), click on a guard so it shows a number on screen and type
resurrect
Then close the console

Do i need to take over Skyrim as Stormcloaks to get these guards everywhere? It's not working for me.

Would love to see an alternate version with the helmets present. One look at the creation kit tells me: I have no idea what I'm doing.

@Flounce Thanks for the fix, they're now wearing Stormcloak uniforms which is much better than the nudity haha. All good!

Ok... I powered through the start of the CW up untill the Battle of Whiterun.
I got a few naked guards and I think I've fixed the problem...

Gonna try it again.

@Flounce So the resurrect console command puts them in the generic Stormcloak uniform, but when I leave Whiterun and then return, they're naked again and have no cuirass in their inventories. I also discovered that the nudity is only happening with male guards - female guards are all wearing the generic Stormcloak uniform. And despite being in the same hold, the guards in Riverwood are wearing your mods so they're fine.

Interesting... Did you try using Resurrect on them with the console?

@Flounce I got it and it is working everywhere except Whiterun! In all the other holds the guards are a mix of Stormcloak and your mods to the originals, which is fantastic. In Whiterun however, all the guards are inexplicably naked. Well, they wear boots and gloves, but no cuirass (though it says they have them in their inventories). Not good, but at least it's funny. Otherwise the mod is perfect :)

Ah ok. If you could let me now if the CW stuff works that'd be great.

@Flounce Ahh, I haven't been able to update my mods beause my internet is on the fritz and has spent the last two weeks going at glacial speed. Should be fixed soon though so I look forward to it.

I did... Like, a week ago... Didn't it work?
The guards should wear similar outfits throughout the CW quest chain. There are minor changes like the Whiterun Guards should wear the Stormcloak blue if you side with Ulfric for The Battle of Whiterun, but they should still have no helmet and the Nordic Steel boots and gauntlets...

I haven't actually tested it myself and probably won't... At least for a while.

@Flounce The idea of Stormcloak/Imperial-tweaked holds uniforms is awesome! I would be a huge supporter if you did something like that. But the mod looks great currently too. Thankyou :)

...this doesn't have much to do with the mod, but what do you think is the most cumbersome part of a set of armor? I would think you would grow accustomed to the actual armor, but what about the boots and the helmet?

@Aspera. Urm... I don't think so at the moment. I never really complete the civil war 'cos the storyline's rubbish and 'Season Unending' is the most interesting mission in the game.

I'll look into it, probably keep the general themes of the outfits but make them a bit more Imperial or Stormcloak somehow.
Thanks for pointing that out.

@Hammerfell guy.
Oh, my bad, you mean the Officer's verion? I guess I could work that in.

for the record, the rare version of the imperial heavy helmet only covers as much of the guard's face as the ones from oblivion....and they look nice with the set.

Will this still change the guards if you have completed the Civil War quest? I'm sick of every guard in every hold wearing a Stormcloak uniform, and am dying to find a mod that will either bring back the original hold-specific uniforms, or at least give me some diversity and colour.

Frankly I hated the full face helmets so I'll not be changing this.

I make these mods because they're things I want to use and I'm only uploading them 'cos a friend said I should... So I did.
I absolutely recommend downloading the Creation Kit yourself and making things you like. There's a lot of tutorials on youtube and there's an entire website to reference. It's very simple to make changes like this.

i almost subscribed until you said the guards dont have helmets any more. i think you should leave the full face helmets on the guards and then people can use open face helmet mods if they want to see the guards face.
like this one

or maybe make an alternate version which has guards with helmets, so you can please both ends of the spectrum

Good good. As for the helmet... Most guards are helmetless by design.
I generally don't like any of the full face helmet's, that's why there aren't any of the full guard helmets anymore.

seems to work fine.

FINALLY! I'm gonna go test it, see if it works. May i suggest adding the rare version of the imperial helmets to the heavy armor imperial guards? it seems so fitting, and so....... oblivion-ish
