Anyway, I have made a mod for it ages ago. The workaround has a few drawbacks though. The tunics from the Charlemagne DLC don't work with the old chainmail, so I had to use a tunic from the base game (a more ornate one, the kind most Germanic tribes use there). Always planned to pick a more fitting one later, but never bothered to do so because I grew bored with AoC.
This was back when Charlemagne's sword was sticking through his chest, so some changes I made there may be obsolete now. I also added quite a few missing belts.
If anyone is interested, I have attached the file.
Oh, and by the way... is anyone interested in a fix for all those missing shield bosses, half-invisible faction leaders (Tanukhids) or fake beards (Ostrogoth starting leader)?
I always thought there are two kinds of players: those who don't care/notice and those who use the more historically correct faction overhauls anyway. But if anyone is interested, I will try to polish it and upload it to the Steam Workshop.
