    Skyrim - Discworld Mod Talk

    in Skyrim LE

    Posted · Edited by Voivod333

    Some excellent ideas Tnega. Definitely something to look into. I know this thread looks dead and I don't want it to die either. However, currently with my new PS4 and Destiny, the Heroes of the Storm Alpha and the impending Gnomes and Goblins expansion for Hearthstone, and of course real life, I seem to have precious little time to do anything else. I still want to see the Discworld mod for Skyrim come to fruition and one day I hope to get back to it and see it happen. At this time however, it is simply not in the cards.

    KISS comes to Skyrim...

    I have been toying with the idea of bringing Gene Simmons, The Demon, to Skyrim. Maybe the whole band eventually but Gene first, his axe and all. While I can model a little (in Cinema 4d, thanks to Ghosu's awesome tutorials) I still have a hell of a time unwrapping my meshes to a texture. I am an artist so actually doing the textures in Photoshop is no problem, if I could only get the model unwrapped correctly.

     

    So I am looking for help or someone to do it for me. If someone could model Gene's armor and Axe and include the unwrapped mesh that would be awesome!

     

    As for technical bits of his armor, most of it is pretty straight forward, however his "arm capes" might be a PITA (skeleton stuff needed to make sure it stays connected correctly). The only other thing is glowing red eyes on his boots.

     

    I am planning on doing some work in Audacity to get some Gene Simmons sounding dialogue. Along the lines of him saying things like "You wanted the best. You got the best."

     

    Finally his hair. I have no clue how to do hair (tri's, etc.) so that is also something that is needed.

     

    Naturally, The Demon would be an NPC though the armor (Male Only) and the axe would most likely be craftable.

    Excellent points. I myself have collected a wide variety of Discworld reference materials including multiple maps. I too look forward to a total conversion. Thank you for pointing out SureAI, I will definitely check out what kind of documentation they have. I believe this mod is possible. I just wish I had the time to get something rolling. Maybe on day.

    I am still around. Haven't been doing anything Skyrim related since my wife and I have started playing World of Warcraft. Yes, yes, I know, World of Warcraft. Heck, I haven't even gotten Dawnguard yet and I was really looking forward to it. WoW is so addictive. I guess I should get back into Skyrim. Check out Dawnguard. See what new mod craziness has transpired since its release.

    ApachiiSkyHair No.18 Streaked

    All I want is a simple white stripe/streak added to some black hair. ApachiiSkyHair number 18, specifically. I have included images of what I mean. The stripe/streak would start at the center and goto the right or the left, either way is fine.

    Sorry for my poor one minute photoshop edit. Of course I would want to keep the hair's texture intact XD

    So if anyone could do this or tell me how to, I have tried and failed, that would be frickin' sweet!!! Thanks.

    Don't lose hope. Who knows maybe I will get a chance to return. Or maybe you can find someone to build the Discworld piece by piece. GalaxyS3, you should check out the Creation Kit Official Wiki and learn like I did. Building within the Creation Kit isn't too difficult. It just takes a lot of time to do. You already have some great help. A majority of the mod can be made in the Creation Kit (Towns, Landscapes, etc.). Focus on that first and get your assets to help with re-texturing or making the UU clothing, Patrician's clothes and the Watch's Armors to start. And if possible the Librarian. Start with the UU, then expand to Ank-Morpork, then as Pratchett wrote,"The world is your mollusc."

    No, I never got a chance to see the unfinished mod.

     

    Some bad news though, I will have to withdraw from the Discworld Mod. I simply have no time. I have a lot going on in RL. I really wish I could continue to keep working on it but I simply cannot. GalaxyS3 will have to take the helm.

    I forgot all about the "Elder Race" in the Creation Kit. So, the Silver Horde is all sorted out. I still think some custom beards and armor is needed for them though. As for UU beards, only Ridcully needs a custom beard.

     

     

    @muttiniraq

     

    I will try to incorporate some of those ideas. Though, they are likely to be later additions. The mod will start off with the UU, then Ankh-Morpork, followed by Lancre and the Ramptops, then expand from there to Sto Helit and beyond. Basically when there is a new version/update of the mod, new places and characters will be added. Eventually players will have access to, fingers crossed, the entire Discworld.

    I am currently working on the "fat" clothes for the wizards and a custom race for Cohen and the Silver Horde Barbarians, so they have aged textures and scars for their bodies. I will post some pictures as soon as they are ready.

    I prefer working on Discworld, the UU and Ankh-Morpork myself. To keep it more consistent and how I envision it to be. You could find an experienced quest maker/scripter. I have attempted simple quests for some stuff I made before but they never worked properly, a huge annoyance. I have made all the tutorial quests I could find, which work but don't cover enough of what it is I need done. I could begin looking at quests and breaking them down within the Creation Kit to figure it all out but I would rather just focus on building. Unfortunately, I am working overtime in RL for a while then possibly getting laid-off, so I will be busy looking for a new job. So it may be a slow process on the building of everything but I will do as much as I can. It will get done and it will be awesome. Especially with help from others. Which is greatly appreciated! And awesome work getting help.

    The College isn't a base for UU. But it is the gateway to it and eventually the rest of Discworld, via a bookshelf in the College to library in the UU, known as L-Space. The screen shot is just to show my attempts at re-texturing some clothes and such to use for the wizards.

     

    @GalaxyS3

     

    Good work on recruiting help. Like that of the Dogtown and hopefully OmegaRed99. I have their works and am loving them. For the orangutan Librarian, I hope he can break him down into pieces like the normal races (ie. Head, Body, Hands, Feet) so I can make outfits for him as need be for future DLC of the Discworld. As for other creatures, thankfully there aren't many. The important ones being the Trolls, the Dwarves and the Golems. All are virtually essential to Discworld lore. As well as Death, mentioned prior and the Death of Rats. Finally, I think are of course, the Nac Mac Feegles.

     

    There is also Greebo, Nanny Ogg's "cat." How can I forget him. But he is not just a cat but more of a were-race. A cat that can become a man. And some other oddities (Pictures below).

     

    For clothing/armors, we need the Watch armors, the UU clothing, the Patrician's clothes and the Ramtop witches clothes, Casanunda's wig and clothes, and finally the Canting Crew (aka the bums) clothing, especially a Duck Hat for "the Duck Man." Most of the rest can be vanilla stuff. I don't think any special weapons are needed. Maybe one sword, for use as a talking sword. Which in itself maybe hard to pull off. A custom race for old people would be awesome, it would help greatly the look of "the Silver Horde." As far as weapons go, the Patrician's Cane Sword would be nice but isn't necessary. But I do think crossbows are a definite must and Detritus's Siege Bow.

     

    Here some pics of most of what I believe we need.

    Yeah, I have looked into Gandalf's hat. Tried it, didn't like it. Currently using a Witches Hat mod. I just need to learn to UV map and I will be able to do anything. I am looking into learning how to create mutli-part models and UV mapping them, etc. So wish me luck. Here's a look at a quick re-texture of some clothes, cloaks, hat and boots for the Bursar. Just a test to see how it looks. It will do for now as a placeholder but I definitely want proper models.
