- integrated Unique Phoenix Armor by Stupendous Man.
Yes, you can now wear GenMod dyed pink samurai pants to the Phoenix Armour, if you so desire.

- with his permission I also updated his mods "The Dust King" and "Black Dragon Ninja Armour" for Kenshi 1.0 and tweaked their stats in line with the work he already did on his Phoenix Armor.
Both are now a bit better or worse than their vanilla counterparts. For example, the Dragon Ninja Chestplate is lighter than the regular Holy Chest plate and thus provides a bit less armour but has better skill modifiers. The set as a whole is geared around stealth while the Dust King set favours samurai dex builds but loses a bit of cut resistance.

-I also gave both his Dragon Ninja Trousers and Phoenix Hessians Armor coverage to reflect the changes GenMod made to the vanilla Hessians.
The Phoenix's has beefed up resistances while the Ninja ones focus on stealth, assassination bonus and also give slight bonuses to attack, dex and dodge

-finally I removed the overlap meshes I used on the Dragon Ninja Trousers since, after finally being able to do some testing, I noticed their textures simply do not play nice with them

Reverted a bunch of changes to overlap references due to some texture issues.

Variants of Samurai Clothpants will now only use their overlap meshes for coats and variants of the "Holy Chest Plate", like the Dragon Ninja Chest Plate

Variants of Samurai Legplates will now only use their overlap meshes for coats.
Those vanilla meshes were made for coats and coats only. - Credits to Vidalia for making me aware of that fact in the Bug Reports

This is very much what you could consider an alpha. Most things should look fine but with some I'm not yet quite sure. What makes sense in FCS doesn't necessarily translate to the game itself.

What I did so far:
- applied vanilla overlap meshes to variants of Samurai Clothpants and Samurai Legplates that did not have them applied already. Both vanilla, like Ancient Samurai Legplates and modded variants like the Legplates added in "The Dust King".
They should now properly be overlapped by all coats, Holy Chest Plate variants and robes. However, I don't know how their textures, diffuse- and normal maps look on those meshes because I haven't had the chance to go look in game yet.
I also applied the vanilla Clothpants overlap meshes to the Black Dragon pants, mainly for testing purposes since they technically use different albeit similar regular meshes. Might look funny. Didn't have a chance to look at it yet.
Definitely need a custom game start next with ALL the things!

- also added overlap item references of a whole bunch of mod-added new dustcoats, robes, chest plates and whatnots to all Samurai leg piece variants I could find. Yes, you should finally be able to use the Mediocre Black Samurai Legplates along with the Black Dragon Ninja Chestplate without having them clip through the tassets.

So far it's all been mostly busywork but believe it or not, I actually had loads of fun ^^
