Verendum Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 had an idea after I finished watching LoTR again.I could try create a middle-earth mod.do you think it's a good idea for a mod? and if so would you download it? Weapons and Armor Create all the iconic weapons seen in the series. e.g. Gandalf and Saruman's Staves, Narsil, Glamdring etc.Create more general weapons e.g. Urukhai SwordsCreate armors seen in the movies e.g. Heavy and Light Versions of Rohan Armor, Gondor Armor, Harad Armor, Uruk-hai ArmorIconic Armors too e.g. Gandalf's Robes, Theoden's Armor, Aragorn Ranger ClothesRecreate all 20 Rings of power. 3 Elven Rings, 7 Dwarven Rings, 9 Human Rings + the One ring, each with different powers and found in different ways (bosses, quests etc.) Monsters/Bosses Replace dragons with fell beasts (the things the Nazguls flew on)Create 9 Nazguls that roam the land (maybe when you equip the one ring they will start heading towards you.)Giant eaglesOliphauntsWargsTrollsBalrogsSauron Races DwarvesHobbitsOrcsUrukhaiDunedainAinurMenElves Map Maybe we could recreate middle earth and replace Skyrim or place it below Skyrim so that you can play in both of them. Quests Get the ring to mount doom. There would be a Frodo npc and you have to either protect him until the ring is destroyed or steal the ring and bring it to Sauron. [factions]Kill the BalrogTake over Isengard/take over Minas Tirith.Free the Dead Men of Dunharrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frank1102 Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 sounds goood, if you can do all of that, why wouldn't you wanna play this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barthigi Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 Sounds very ambitious if you ask me and it would take a lot of work considering a full scale overhaul! Maybe also include the lore from the books too if you ran out of things to add, they have so much pre-LoTR film lore. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zorndyken Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 read Silmarillion (prequel of lotr & hobbit), the world is bigger than middle earth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KingGsterUK Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 If you can make Hobbits, I'll fall in love with you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hejpadig Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 That would be too good to be true! Looking forward to your progress if you proceed with the project mate! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheDarkPrince Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 You know what's funny? This all modding MIDDLE EARTH idea started back in Morrowind and NEVERNEVERNEVERNEVERNEVERNEVERNEVER came out with nothing more but a few concepts, IVE NEVER seen a finished middle-earth mod in my entire modding life. Here's another trash project that will be abandoned in a few weeks, as usual. No offense mate, just talking truth, wish u the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NamesAreUseless Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 (edited) Verendum, I hope you've heard of MERP? We are a Middle Earth total conversion mod. We have a large group of modders already with the same goals in mind. It is a project that started off back in Morrowind and will moving onto Skyrim (our new heightmap is over 10x the size of Skyrim). If you have any nodding skills, feel free to fill out an application in our forums: http://merp.straygenius.com/forum/index.php You know what's funny?

We just released a new beta for Oblivion a couple days ago (and we will be moving on to Skyrim from here)! http://www.moddb.com/mods/merp-middle-earth-roleplaying-mod/ Edited February 10, 2012 by names_are_useless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susurruss Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 I voted no simply because if one were offered to me today, I really wouldn't have much of an interest (except some of the visuals!). However, if it came out a year from now it would surely renew my interest in Skyrim (ok, maybe two years - it's gonna take me a year just to finish this 'little project' I'm working on). Good luck and I look forward to screenshots! BTW, having the posts from TheDarkPrince and names_are_useless back-to-back made me crack up! :D It's like: "ummm... dude.... he's standing RIGHT BEHIND YOU!" lulz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
