RagnaHighArc Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 it would be awesome fighting hand to hand/ unarmed in oblivion all while using a shield.. just like captain america Yeah that would be awesome, but it would be better if you could also fight with the shield. Anyway, i think it's possible. If you can make a shield work like a weapon, then you're half way there. So, get a shield model and add a handle on the inside of the shield, so it looks like the player is grabbing the shield's handle, otherwise it'll look like the shield is attached to the gauntlets... unless you want that. Have the weapon add points to your armor rating when you equip it. Then use the player's handtohand fighting animation as the animation that the shield's user should have while it's equipped. But now you have a problem. When it's un-equipped, how should it be handled? Because putting it on your hips would look kinda lame, which leaves just 2 options. 1. Put it on your back like a two-handed weapon or 2. Leave it on like a regular shield. so yeah. i hope that helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RagnaHighArc Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 I just though of an easier way. Just attack a shield model to one of the gauntlets. You could then attach a script to the gauntlets that would increase the armor rating and h2h attack damage. If you attach the shield to the right gauntlet, every time you do a running power attack your character would punch with the shield. i'll do the scripts if someone wants to do the work on the gauntlet mesh.

Megatarius Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 Maybe I missed something, but couldn't you also make a weapon that is classified as "sword" but is in actuality the same meshes and animations of an empty fist? Then you could punch and use your shield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alex2avs Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 The deadly Reflex mod allows you to shield bash ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LHammonds Posted October 31, 2009 Share Posted October 31, 2009 DR does let you shield bash but don't you have to have a weapon in your other hand to "pull" the shield out? Implementing the shield as a sword will not let you utilize your hand-to-hand skills as it would be increasing / using your blunt or blade skills. It would really need to be implemented as a piece of clothing or armor. As suggested, attaching a shield to a gauntlet would work for this scenario without messing with animations and causing compatibility issues. It was also mentioned that you could add an enchant to the gauntlet such as standard enchants or specialized scripts. And I think you can find a Captain America shield on PES by Jannix Quinn. ;) LHammonds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
