Obsidian? Figures. It is also known as, and kind of acts like, "Volcanic Glass".

The glass equipment was originally going to be black like this, and was to be called obsidian.

Yes, it also affects armor. If your mod is loading after this one, then it's overriding it.
Giant Neckbeard 29 Jan, 2014 @ 4:45am 
Does this mod only affect the weapons? I made a set of Glass Armor, and it was still green ... is there any 'load order' I need to look out for, especially with mods that add types of weapons to the game?

Better for thieves. Who wants to be sneaking around in green armor? Black blends with the shadows.... Overall good mod
asian5495 8 Nov, 2013 @ 8:59am 
does the armor color change too.?

The word you were looking for was obsidian Nomad
PrinceBaka 17 Mar, 2013 @ 7:50pm 
has a weird green luster to it :/

Dread5, in Elder Scrolls lore, Ebony IS a form of glass.

Ebony, a rare volcanic glass, is one of the most precious substances in the Empire, mainly found in Vvardenfell, buried in the lava flows from Red Mountain. Veins can also be found in Solstheim, and occasionally on mainland Skyrim. Raw ebony itself is an extremely hard, durable, black glass-like substance.

sigh... ebony isnt glass "Ebony is a dense black wood, most commonly yielded by several species in the genus Diospyros, but ebony may also refer to other heavy, black (or dark colored) woods from unrelated species. Ebony is dense enough to sink in water. Its fine texture, and very smooth finish when polished, make it valuable as an ornamental wood. The word "ebony" derives from the Ancient Egyptian hbny, via the Ancient Greek ἔβενος (ébenos), by way of Latin and Middle English."

I subscribed but my glass helmet isn't black, any ideas why?
that_guy 5 Jun, 2012 @ 1:08am 
Sorry for the offence, I didn't mean it, my opinion is changed, I think it looks really good in its own right, I wonder if the maker also included Chillrend? If not, it'd be nice if he did, a black ice sword would look great.
MaxMinerva 29 May, 2012 @ 8:08pm 
Looks very nice. Would it be possible to create a mod that allows for more than just the colors you have made? You could modify the smithing to allow armor and weapons to be crafted with added gemstones to change the color, perhaps. Rubies for red glass, amethyst for purple, etc.

wow i went insearch for a black glass mod and found this to be by far the best. thank-u.
Godvana 11 Apr, 2012 @ 9:03am 
@urenthesage, they are similar, ebony is LIKE black glass, but it is not glass. Ebony armor is made from Ebony and Glass is made from Malachite and Moonstone. Plus one is light and one is heavy.
jams410 10 Apr, 2012 @ 6:54am 
yeh good mod hated the green
urenthesage 9 Apr, 2012 @ 4:11am

Never_Cardbored 8 Apr, 2012 @ 11:56am 
anyone else think it's funny that davidjones is trollin like a b****
shawnsrg007 8 Apr, 2012 @ 10:53am 
Not all glass is green davidjones...ever heard of "Stained Glass" comes in tons of colors and shades...black being one. Great mod
Kit the Casino Indian 6 Apr, 2012 @ 11:17pm 
@davidjones who gives a shit it looks cool
that_guy 6 Apr, 2012 @ 2:14am 
It's not glass if it's not green, it's made from malachite damnit, not obsidian, you should remake this into a mod which allows you to make obsidian armor, if has the same stats as regular glass armor but with a monochrome colouration, that would be better, it's a nice thought though.
rickyz123 5 Apr, 2012 @ 7:13pm 
could you make some sort of silver recolour or steel recolour
Shir Blackwater 5 Apr, 2012 @ 7:14am 
ah, oops.
browsed a bit further and found the black glass armor, nvm.
But the question about being able to craft this as non replacing armor/weapons still stands :3
Shir Blackwater 5 Apr, 2012 @ 7:10am 
Any chance you could do this for the armor as well as an optional crafted armor?
Like say, you need to have the glass armor, and re smith it with some ebony to get the black glass armor...

I'd prefer things that don't replace content, but other than that this is a good looking mod. :)
Beanz 4 Apr, 2012 @ 3:31pm 
Thank you so much! Does this work on all glass weapons? I tried doing this myself, but couldn't save the retexture to my game.
B_N_esoteric 4 Apr, 2012 @ 2:52pm 
Is there a way to turn the whole item into a semi-transparent glass texture?
