Details
Arctic Boots
Arctic Cuirass

The vendor keeps two sets of non-enchanted weapons and armor and will sell more over time. The quality of this armor is equivalent to Leather.

Each armor piece has this enchantment:

When the bonuses are granted, you will hear custom sound FX which lets you know the bonuses have been granted. The weather will also begin to snow.

You can buy the Arctic Fur set from a new vendor called Arctico at a shop called Nord Winds in Bruma.
Install
This archive is distributed in 7-zip's .7z format which requires 7-zip (or other current archive utilities). The archive is what I call OMOD-Ready which simply means that it's a normal archive but with extra data contained in it to allow you to quickly convert it to an OMOD for use with Oblivion Mod Manager.
Pick which method you are going to use for installation:
Manual Installation
- = or = -
OBMM Installation

2. Start Oblivion Launcher, click Data Files, and enable the .esp file.
OBMM Install
Create the OMOD (Do this section only once)
1. Copy archive to (install folder)\Oblivion\obmm\mods\
2. Start Oblivion Mod Manager.
3. Click the Create button.
4. Click the Add Archive button, find and select the archive, then click Yes.
5. Click the Create omod button, then click OK when it finishes.

Upgrade
Upgrading from Arctic Gear Improved 2.0:
- Simply overwrite one with the new one.
Upgrading from Arctic Gear 1.0 or 1.1:
- Sell all your items.
- Save your game.
- Uninstall old version.
- Install new version.
Incompatibility
None. The vendor and his items are all unique. The vendor NPC is added to an existing location so if any other mod adds something to the same location, there might be a problem, however it's unlikely and the last mod loaded will "win" over any conflicts.
Known Issues or Bugs
None.
