Creating a medieval related mod

[rhomaionsfinest]

WELCOME

*Note: This is just for ideas and seeing who would be willing to help

 

So I guess you just stumbled on some barren post but I'll cut to the chase,

 

 

 

I am very, very a new (and I mean no modding experience what so ever, but of course that is something I can work on) to the modding community

 

 

 

Early in the year I put up a request for a medieval armour overhaul that I had some sort of plan to make the mod. It had various concepts from other mods include the Credo Medieval Overhaul, Bechemen's armour overhauls and other various mods.

 

Link here: https://forums.nexusmods.com/index.php?/topic/4660950-conceptrequest-for-medieval-armour-replacer/

 

I was hoping to maybe to gather a team of sorts to make a medieval overhaul of sorts. I won't be able to do anything in the sorts of actual modding for at least a year due to school and life etc. So hopefully I could just pitch this hopefully to get an idea if anyone will support.

 

 

 

What is this?

 

• This mod that may or may not come into existence plans to create a medieval overhaul.
• I will need the actual experience to rig the armours, create them etc.

So the outline of what I actually want to do (CONCEPTS ARE IN THE LINK ABOVE):

• Create a guard and civil war armour overhaul
• The guards and civil war armour will be based on region, availability of resources, wealth, culture, and other factors
• This plan is just to start off small and build
• Each hold would have armours that are unique according to the region and will have a number of lore based factors that influence the design of each armour
• Using the Witcher resources and the Credo modder's resources would be the primary area in which could potential be used to create these armours as well as using vanilla assets to emphasises differences
• Creating varied helmets would create diversity in each hold and in the civil war
• Links to possible armours (of course this would be edited to match each respectable hold and the colours as well as modifications to certain helmets like adding coverings to the morion helmets) http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/33641/?tab=3&selected_game=110&navtag=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.nexusmods.com%2Fskyrim%2Fajax%2Fmodimages%2F%3Fid%3D33641%26user%3D1%26gid%3D110&pUp=1

Next part (This would be very, very unlikely at this stage to be created and this is just highly ambitious ideas)

• Next I would plan to build medieval keeps and create some sort of politic-like quests to go with it
• Using the thanes (inspired by the holds mod) as lords of these castles, they would be the barons in the lands of the Jarl in each hold
• Quests similar to Diplomatic Immunity in vanilla and the Fight against the thalmor series could be used, involving political intrigue as a main part of the quest
• Taking the various fortresses (some not all) as thane and/or creating new fortresses to take and hold them from bandits
• Spying missions, assassination (possibly integration into the dark brotherhood quests) either with dark brotherhood or alone)
• The ability to hold keeps or give them to another thane
• Personal house hold guards (with custom armours)
• Wars with minor vassals and fighting rebellions with the household guards (game of thrones style)
• New settlements similar to the People of Skyrim Ultimate edition
• Editing existing settlements similar to ETaC and creating medieval style cities and towns (updating the docks, making solitude a capital etc.)

 

This is all just highly ambitious thoughts and hopefully I could create a team with some people who are willing to join with particular skill sets

 

Maybe in a couple of years, I will be able to create this mod with the help of others.

Clearly not since you already have more than enough tools to get some experience.

 

 

This plan is just to start off small and build

lol where to start. Nevermind...Just wait for Bannerlord. It'll be better than any mod that can be made to replicate what you are asking for.

Yeah I will probably not do that but it would be nice in skyrim

Not going to what exactly, get experience? I strongly recommend you do.
