Falconx21 Posted June 13 Share Posted June 13 So I sat here for a bit thinking about weapons, armor in skyrim how the weapons look like paddles, armors...well the textures need "help" Rational people would be like well just change XYZ..true you could...BUT what if a mod was made for crafting, enhancing ie. You make lets say an iron sword well its Rough looks like a boat paddle. Then you make it "Fine" it trims some of the weapon down, visibly makes it sharper Then when you make it legendary for example it becomes sleek, elegant polished, beautiful It would imo make the game FEEL immersive for that add the same kind of concept to armor but as you enhance the armor it Looks more armored, Taken care of, not worn, beat to shi* this sounds out there yes but it might be really cool if this could be possible 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DirebearCoat Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 (edited) I like the idea. As a blacksmith you can take a basic armor, like iron armor for example, and depending on your skill level, you can upgrade it to fine, epic, or whatever level and each one shows a level of improvement. https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/elderscrolls/images/1/1c/Iron_Armor_(Armor_Piece).png/revision/latest?cb=20170829172107 In Fine, the leather parts of the armor are more refined and look more sturdy. In Epic, the leather parts of the armor are more refined and look more sturdy, AND the iron parts all have a nice polish to it. In Legendary, the leather parts of the armor are more refined and look more sturdy, the iron parts all have a nice polish to it, AND have a more robust more armored look to it.

scorrp10 Posted August 13 Share Posted August 13 Exporting is pretty easy, can export from Blender as .obj, and then can import it using Outfit Studio, and export as .nif. Then it can be further edited in NifScope. Also need to add a scabbard as well as blood and enchantment effect layers. That said, Getting a weapon to change its display model as it gets improved, that might be a doozy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falconx21 Posted August 14 Author Share Posted August 14 ...people..like this idea?? if someone can make this happen id so LOVE to see it. my only question is could this be done?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirCadsimar Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 Cool idea, but it would take a lot of work. And there would possibly be a lot of glitches/other problems because of the multiple tiers of upgrades. But I don't really think there's a lot of players out there that actually like how their gear looks exactly the freaking same after it's been tempered (upgraded). In fact I'd wager a majority don't. So, of course people like this idea! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
