[WOTC] Legacy Templar Shield

Description
This mod simply replaces the Templar's tier 1 shield used in LWOTC to the Chimera squad model. The new shield looks more fitting to the Templar's uniform and being more compact it helps mitigate clipping to some degree. It also looks like a more suitable shield to run around with as it is less bulky.

This mod can simply be replicated with WSR, but I decided to upload it to the workshop for those not familiar with the process. And also — no promises — for the future if I include a kitbash version for the Plated and Powered shields to go here as well.

Credits
Thanks to Iridar for WSR, the LWOTC team for porting such a complex mod - amazing work!
And of course, thanks to Max for porting the shield models from Chimera Squads that this mod leverages.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but we're still waiting on that day eh? I can't seem to find his mentioned psionic shield anywhere in LWOTC.

@raegorn It's definetly coming for LWOTC, that's the reason it was originally made. He just released this version earlier.
Rewasder 6 Feb, 2022 @ 7:04pm 
but it doesn't work with lwotc and, translating the russian coments, he's not going to make it, can you take the shield asset from there and use it here?

@raegorn that was exactly what I wanted. Iridar's mod was released after this, and it's a more suitable replacement.

This mod was intended to be used until a proper energy shield was made. If you notice, I am credited on Iridar's mod.

The Mod Raegorn suggested would be perfect,maybe a little downsized.

couldn't you use this? I think it creates a psionic shield

Why does anyone even think about replacing that lovely truck door? lol

I looked into that one but ultimately decided the Chimera looks better. The Mass Effect is a hologram and looks a bit dated at this point.

However, ultimately I think if the Templar is to wield a shield, it should be a Psionic energy shield, similar to the Parry effect. But until something like that comes along, this will do.

Haha, thank you! I was pushing to get this replaced by the version from Mass Effect 3's Cerberus shield-bearing troops a long time ago.
