Love the ideas about different bolt types, was definitly something i was planning on. I would love to shoot someone and have them freeze up and fall off a cliff lol. Scripts18! .xml file, fantastic I will need to go grab that. hopefully it will get me back on track. I will send you a pm with my steamid, anything to help a fellow Maya user. Also, I'm not totally against the idea of a musket, I would love to figure out a way to fit it into the lore. Perhaps some kind of magicka powder flint lock. Who knows, deffently something we should work on. Awesome ideas guys would love to hear more :)

The model is done, Looks awesome. Now I've started the task of bringing it into Skyrim. I NEED HELP! This .nif thing is a nightmare! I've finally exported the model as a .nif but now nifscope isnt working for me. SO here is my request, I'm looking for other modders with more experience in this department. If I give you the model can you help me bring it in and release it as a group effort? So, who wants to help? Things to keep in mind if your thinking about helping. - I use Autodesk Maya -I've converted the textures to the proper format already .dds if I'm not mistaken? Including color, normal, and specular maps If you have any questions just let me know! This mod is gonna be awesome lets make it happen! Here are some renders of the model. http://i1124.photobucket.com/albums/l567/amnson/xbow_1.jpg http://i1124.photobucket.com/albums/l567/amnson/xbow_2.jpg http://i1124.photobucket.com/albums/l567/amnson/xbow_3.jpg http://i1124.photobucket.com/albums/l567/amnson/xbow_4.jpg

Ive looked everywhere! I cannot find where to remove grass! Im not talking about the textures, i mean the actual animated grass. Where is this tool?

Crossbow Mod (WIP) The Idea behind this mod is to implement crossbows into Skyrim. The crossbow would be a high damage long range weapon, while its draw backs would be a long reloading animating and scarce ammo. This would lend itself to warriors who cannot sneak up on enemies but would like to get in a strong hit before going into combat. And its high damage would also benefit rogues who only need to kill one person then slip back into the shadows. I really think crossbows wouldn't be much of a stretch for skyrim, it is a logical evolution of the Bow and I feel it would be a fun addition to the game. The crossbow below is a iron crossbow I modeled, its still a work in progress but I wanted to share it with everyone. As far as the technical side of things go, I plan on animating it and getting it ready for the release of the creation kit. As far as implementation goes, I could use a little help. So feel free to offer me assistance :D let me know what you think! http://i1124.photobucket.com/albums/l567/amnson/xbow_4.jpg http://i1124.photobucket.com/albums/l567/amnson/xbow_2.jpg http://i1124.photobucket.com/albums/l567/amnson/xbow_3.jpg http://i1124.photobucket.com/albums/l567/amnson/xbow_1.jpg http://i1124.photobucket.com/albums/l567/amnson/xbow_5.jpg

That pathfinder helmet is killer, Im deffently going to go dig for more reference and put that on my to do list. Thanks for the image!

Until I get my hands on the meshs from the game I cant work on armors, my extractor isn't working correctly. Getting .nifs into maya is proving to be a pain in the @$$. Doesnt mean I don't want to, I love the idea of a blades faction given how small their role was in the story. Speaking of which, since the blades used akaviri, check out my post on the Akaviri Dragon Bone Blade :D So, if can post some concepts that'd be great :)

Hey everyone, I know we dont have the Creation Kit yet, but that doesn't mean we can't get started on making the models. That's where I come in. If you can post a image of a concept or write a vivid description I will do what I can to model the ones people seem to like the most! So have at it! Keep in mind, I would prefer to model weapons so weapons are going to get more attention from me :D

One thing i was disappointed with was that i couldn't craft dragon bone weapons, got my smithing all the way up only to be able to make dragon armor? Here is a model of a Akaviri Dragon Bone Blade I created. Here is a higher quality render than what i posted before. http://i1124.photobucket.com/albums/l567/amnson/akaviri_dragonBone05.jpg http://i1124.photobucket.com/albums/l567/amnson/akaviri_dragonBone06.jpg
