DeepSoul Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 Is there any mod that adds a whip or a flail that you can use as a weapon? Preferably animated with spikes and three tails, or like those whips the drow priestesses are using in AD&D. I've seen a hairstyle with three slim animated ponytails and I guess it could be converted into a weapon? I suppose a weapon like that would be very difficult to make and that's probably why I haven't found it. Here is a picture of a drow priestess just to show you what I'm talking about.http://fc04.deviantart.net/fs50/i/2009/333/a/7/Spider_priestess_by_Aliapkin.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pronam Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 This has been requested a lot of times. None ever succeeded and the reason is often linked to the limits of the game engine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
razorpony Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 Namely the fact that weapons only have one 'bone' and as such can't be articulated. A flail with 3 heads would be rigid and look somewhat like a garden rake or a broom in game. RP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fore Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 A 1-tail whip would be possible, although with tremendous effort. Coronerra's skeleton (and some others) has bones defined for a whip. So it would be possible to make an animation with that. But this skeleton only has 8 bones, so you can't animate a long whip. However, skeletons can be changed. Another problem would be to make this animation look good. I think that's pretty hard with pure intuition. But maybe there is mocap data available.
