[WIP] Tamriellic Craftworks

[WLionheart]

I've been watching and following this topic for awhile now and I have to say; you're doing an amazing job. I love the details you're adding and the many variations. I don't usually post, but I just wanted to let you know. You're not posting here for nothing, I eagerly await what new stuff you will bring.

Thank you very much, William. I appreciate it.

Just found out about this project, I love all things dwemer and this looks awesome.

As for the legendary workers, is it Voidstone?

And for the set name, Void -, - of the Void, Abyssal -, Tamed Void set?

 

Also just as a personal request I always wanted to have a dwemer floating sphere companion, just putting the idea out there. :)

Thanks MakotoSamurai. You are the second person to identify the material; first was tjrock3 who did so in image comments yesterday. I simply didn't give myself the opportunity to update the thread at that time. Curiously, both of you identified the material as "voidstone" which from what I've read is the ore, rather than "voidsteel" which i've been led to believe is the refined metal. Is that not the case? I genuinely don't know as I haven't played ESO myself.

 

As it stands, here's the results of the challenge (will update as more entrants arrive):

 

• tjrock3 - Masterwork
• MakotoSamurai - Abyssal
• MakotoSamurai - of the Void
• MakotoSamurai - Tamed Void
• William Lionheart - Void Walker
• William Lionheart - Void Crawler
• William Lionheart - Void Stalker

For your creature suggestion, what do you mean by "floating sphere". Do you mean something like that droid from the old Star Wars movies? Or perhaps a hovering version of the Dwarven Sphere. In any case, I'm not looking at implementing flying creatures for the moment, though I may explore that avenue at a later time; clan Aztul as well as the nameless fifth clan have yet to be fleshed out in terms of enemies (though Aztul is mostly planned).

 

Ok, progress update: I'm having trouble implementing the spider as a creature unfortunately (I've made a request for help over on the modder forum. If you think that you might be able to help, feel free to download a copy of the mesh and some low-res textures here. Please note that those textures will not work with Bethesda's original UV Layout). But I have managed to implement the spider as a static, so I can at least show you all how it looks in-game, refracting lighted crystal and all.

What exactly is the problem with the creature? I might be able to help if I knew the problem. Just having the files isn't very explanatory. :tongue:

[WLionheart]

Man these look amazing, looks fantastic for a museum or a trophy room.

As for the names: Void Walker, Void Crawler, Void Stalker?

Sorry about that. Suppose this is what I get for posting while low on sleep.

 

To be perfectly honest, I'm not completely sure what the problem is myself. I think it may have something to do with the rigging; something may not have transferred properly when I imported the file into Blender. When I try to place the spider in-game, the creature is completely invisible (save for the occasional puff of steam and any electrical effects attached to the spider centurion). When I dove into the CK to test the mesh there, I got the following error:

I can't seem to find anything directly wrong with the NIF (though I've admittedly missed errors in NIFs before), and information that I've been able to find on the error is scant. Have you seen anything like this before?

Thanks William. I'll update the list after work this evening. *UPDATED (see above)*

Yeah I was thinking more along the lines of G0-T0 from KotOR http://lparchive.org/LetsPlay/KOTOR%202/Update%2035/img-63.JPG just in a Dwemer style, as for the refined version it is Voidsteel. :)

NIFs I don't know, I'm afraid. Creature has skin with AA set appropriately on the skin?
