WarLocG Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 Hi, First, I would know if some mods about asian specific girl clothing and weapons exists and if not, I will share my opinions about this. Manga style clothing for girls: By asian clothing, I think about: -cheongsam ( asian ceremonial ) but also manga style cheongsam like Chun Li classic suit from Street Fighter II, Kasumi suit from Dead or Alive, Seung Mina suit from Soul Calibur 2, Lyn suit from Fire Emblem, Nina suit from Breath of Fire 2... and more (I don't know about the real name of this suit). I think we can use some existant meshes from shirt or robe and play with transparence. -priestess of Shinto Temple suit ( like in InuYasha and more manga ), seems like kimono with larger sleeve and hakama. -more manga style suit like some cosplay but staying in Exotic/Medieval/Battle style; More variant weaponry: Why Bethesda has limited weaponry to blade and blunt for Oblivion, then Morrowind has got polearm, axes, hand-to-hand and more blade format ? -polearms: I think Oblivion underestimate seriousely polearms: spear (spear, halberd, pike, voulge, trident... ) but also more exotics like ( naginata, yari, guandao, pudao, ji, zanbatou, ... ) and variation of stick, bo and jo too.Just look at Kilik or Seung Mina doing their kata in Soul Calibur and see if polearm are bad weapons... Moreover, polearms are basically manufactured to fight horse riding troops and I don't understand why Bethesda has add horses in Oblivion and has forgotten polearms to counterattack... -weapons attached to hands: weapons who replace gauntlets like katar, pata, bagh-nagh, suwayah, claws... -blunt with chain: blunt weapons like nunchaku, three section nunchaku, flail, morgenstern, scorpion, ... Why always axes, maces and hammers ? ^^ -miscalineous: Just some idea I share with you ^^ *sashimono ( flag in the back of some samurai in some manga and games ) *shinto's spell ( paper with kanji who paralyze when placed on 'evil spirit' ^^ ) *kami, chakram, whip, tonfa and more in trying to be original. Weaponry is so vast, there are not just swords and axes to hurt foes. I think most of these weapons has been modded for Morrowind before, but I don't know about Oblivion... Sorry for my bad english. I will put some pictures later... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vagrant0 Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 There are some japanese clothing mods, search for them, think Akavir. There is also a growing number of japanese modders out there, so the selection may increase depending on how many of those modders feel like bastardizing their culture (not that I personally feel this way, but there are those who could interpret it as such). As for weapons. The reason why more weapons were done for morrowind was because there were more different types of weapons to work with. In Oblivion, you're pretty much stuck with blunt, blade, and bow. There are some spear mods, but don't think any of them work particularly well. What can be done pretty much has been done. If anything additional can be done, it probably will be done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarLocG Posted August 30, 2007 Author Share Posted August 30, 2007 Thank for your quick response. I was expecting for the weapons there are something like that... Oblivion is a innovation in graphic and special effect but it has sacrified plenty of important stuffs. Jammed. :closedeyes: I will search for Akavir and share that I know on the subject. I'm not skilled for modding or graphism but I can give some links, pictures or ideas anyway. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
