Hyoton2 Posted March 7 Posted March 7 Would it be doable for someone with proficiency in nifbashing to make a couple of unique armor sets themed around some of the animals in the game? I'd like to be able to do a survivalist/tribal themed playthrough where I only wear the skins of other animals, but I cannot find any mods in that vein and I lack the talent, time, and patience to learn how to make it myselfÂ
FNVmoder2024 Posted March 9 Posted March 9 I actually happen to have a tribal faction in a mod i am working on and know how to do some nif bashing so if you knew which armors you wanted to try merge i can give it a go
laclongquan Posted March 10 Posted March 10 MuteSignals seem to do something about a brahmin or bighorner helmet, based on her published image. I think HH dlc also has some armor use a part of bighorner fur on their armor. Legion has a dog hide helmet which suit certain armor for dog/coyote theme. Molerat though. I think Fallout 3 has a molerat helmet but not very noticeable. And no molerat skin at all. Deathclaws currently has no helmet plus armor, despite having a DC claw gauntlet for age. So is Yaoguai. Nightstalker has nothing. Radscorpion has nothing. --- So in short, what we need most is helmets of molerat, Deathclaw, Yaoguai, Nightstalker
FNVmoder2024 Posted March 10 Posted March 10 (edited) would something like this work just did a quick version of the mole rat was wondering if this is what you were sort of looking for obviously would need a better job but here is a rough mock up tried to make it like HTTPS://fallout.fandom.com/wiki/Vexillarius_helmet https://ibb.co/JRPYQP2r https://ibb.co/Mx6nxxNq https://ibb.co/5g2K6qsP https://ibb.co/chcSh8pj https://ibb.co/5XDM9rJ6 https://ibb.co/39FHW4pJ Edited March 10 by FNVmoder2024
laclongquan Posted March 12 Posted March 12 (edited) Yeah, we made use of that Vexi helmet before. As for your molerat hat, I would advise to cut the molerat's two whiskers. Unnecessary details, is what. you might want to think about a neckscarves (covering the neck area) with molerat skin texture. Think of cowboy scarves but with that texture. It is to make the whole helmet thing feel more balanced, because currently you are making it too topheavy.. Dont forget the gecko animal. We have no gecko helmet, and the gecko leather/metal armor are not very geckoish (practically vanila). Not very tribal or hunter either~ You also can think of cowboy hat, but with gecko skin texture. Nightstalker armor has an experiment in Dry Well mod, and it look too rough~ I agree that it feel a bit tribal and hunter, but it look too rough. Plus no female version which is a deal killer for me.

FNVmoder2024 Posted March 16 Posted March 16 Did some more work and got a few re textures done with the cowboy hat scarf and began on a nif bash and other custom armor. If anyone has opinions on these and will try to add a sort of scarf for the molerat The in-game photos: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 | 14 Blender photos: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9
laclongquan Posted March 18 Posted March 18 (edited) Hmm ingame photo 7 look good It look a bit like tiger stripped which is possible because you look at the molerat skin and its folds could be processed into looking that way. The other versions look not very interesting: either overcomplex for no attraction, or too simple. The hat and headwrap also look good: leathery, and different color theme from usual type of hats and wrap. Edited March 22 by laclongquan
