evilkoal Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 i am officially starting the mod "Unique Swords" all of the swords with unique names (not umbra though, since there are plenty of umbra replacers that are quite awesome, and i dont want it to conflict) will be replaced with a sword with a unique mesh! all of the stats of the swords will be exactly the same, so sit will be compatible with MOBS or whatever if you merge it. any sword that you would like to see (aside from retarted looking ones) in the game, or even as a specific sword, post a link or whatever, and i will add it to the package if the creator says it is ok :) i think that is everything... and if i forgot something, then oh well, i will fix it later!

Sypron Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 If you've played though SI then you know about shadowrend. The sword you get from killing your shadow clone. Its a cool sword, entirely black. I was satisfied with it, until Bethesda released Battlehorn castle and I found the same sword with different name, stats and texture. So, Bethesda made the battlehorn one first, then released SI with the sword painted black. So if you could do something about Shadowrend's model that would be great. Also, you could add sheathes for the unique weapons. I think they deserve a cool unique sheath if they are a unique weapon (or blade at least).

evilkoal Posted March 7, 2008 Author Share Posted March 7, 2008 alrighty :)any model you have in mind, or any evil looking one will do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abramul Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 You might want to specify what-all you're counting as unique. Any enchanted variations of a sword, or just variations with only one instance in the world? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madman132 Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Yeah, will a "Sword of Inferno" have a new Design or just something like the "Calia Draconis Sword"? Chillrend is unique, the Debaser is also unique. Redwave is unique, but has a Saber design. Blade of Woe, Honerblade of Chorrol, Shadowhunt, Sufferthorn, Withsplinter, Shimmerstrike, and so on are unique, but use designs from other Weapons. As do all the unique Weapons and all unique Items buyable in shops. The Escutcheon of Chorrol however, does not. Well, its design is unique, altough you may not see it at the first glance =) But since you are modding Swords, other Weapons, Armor and stuff will have to wait :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilkoal Posted March 8, 2008 Author Share Posted March 8, 2008 all of the swords with names will have unique models :)so basically yes, anything with just 1 instance in the game.they will all be like the same size and stuff, like claymores will still be claymores and 1h will still be 1h, and redwave will still be a cutlass, everything will just have a unique model. all of the basic enchanted crap will still have the same model as it did before. but yeah, i need some linkies to cool sword models, because i am HORRIBLE at looking for mods. so anything that anyone thinks is pretty sweet should be either pm'ed to me, or linked on the page :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most weapon mods (IE ones with new meshes) already have "unique" versions of any meshes that are something which look "unique". Basically what you are attempting to do is take (hopefully with permission) models from existing weapon mods, and just linking those meshes to standard ingame weapons (most of which have unique meshes already). Maybe I just don't get what the whole point of this idea is, but given that you're just looking to use someone else's resources, rather than making your own, this whole idea seems bad. It isn't about you not being able to make meshes, it's what you're doing with the resources. People don't use those weapons because they aren't very good compared to other weapons, let alone modded weapons. It was done with Umbra because Umbra is a weapon people like using.

evilkoal Posted March 8, 2008 Author Share Posted March 8, 2008 of course i will be getting permission for other people's meshes if i use them :) i dont think you understand what i am going to do :| i am only going to replace the swords that have one instance in the game but nearly all of the "unique" swords in the game have the basic meshes that all the other ones have... which is why i decided to make them more "unique" by giving them their own "unique" mesh :)take for example "Northwind" the unique Akaviri katana, it looks exactly like a normal katana. so, i will replace its mesh with something unique.no two "unique" swords will have the same mesh. so you will not find that "Northwind" and "Mishaxi's Cleaver" look exactly the same. sorry if i wasnt too clear on that :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
