Request for Elven skull resource

[Tallhat]

He wasn't aiming that at you, it was a general anouncement of sorts. I'd go as far as calling it off topic.

 

And as I've mentioned earlier - "I thought you'd say that". Noone can know for sure unless you tell him, therefore it is paramount to give all the necesary details to the modders that could potentialy take on your request,

 

Even as a general announcement it was over the top implying that people who are not up to his seemingly enourmous standard are "un-educated, illiterate, annoying, mean, or just plaing stupid". I particulary find it funny that he would argue that other people are mean in a post that is in itself very mean.

my seemingly "enormous" standards, are actually very low, all i ask is that people know whats possible or not, elvish skulls, are based on the imperial skulls, same as in R/L, the orcs have been based on the african skull structure, elvish are based on the europeans, akavir is asian, orc is african, imperial is american/european, breton and nord are based on the european norwegian, wood-elves, are very scottish/european, and the redguards are the literal african americans.

 

to say "elvish" is a VERY broad generalization, IF you want anyone to make this resource for you, just specify what you want exactly, what it entails.

 

make a checklist,

 

*what is it EXACTLY (description, is it aged, is it rotten, is it supposed to glow)

*will it require new meshes?

*will it require new textures?

*does it need to be animated?

*does it need to be static?

 

stuff like that, if it has a checklist of that sort it is proben to have a much higher chance of being made. Not to insult your intelligence or anything, just to help you out in the future, and if you continue to specify, i will make it.

Right. I thank you for your help then. Perhaps I can find a picture to illustrate what I mean. But in the meantime I can tell you from you list above that:

 

- I would prefer if the skull look somewhat aged, what I mean that there would be no flesh attacthed. Also the skull wouldnt be very "shiny" since it is supposed to have been laying in the Ashpits of the temple in Morrowind.

 

- Whether It would need new textures and meshes I dare not say. I honestly do not have an idea what the difference between creating new or just using old ones is. I'll leave that to the pro modders.

 

- No animation at all would be needed. It should simply be an elven skull with Havoc aplied to it.

 

- And I guess the last point is answered above.

 

For facial structure I imagine that like you said they are based in humans, in this case native americans (higher cheekbones and the like) yet of course with a slimmer skull than with a human. A few pics of Dunmer heads (the way I like them) can be seen here. http://www.stephanewuttunee.net/tnr_dunmer.html

Now I know that these still have flesh on them :P but I am sure you will get the idea.

So what say you? Was that better for a description?

in your original request, were you looking for someone to just rename the human skull as elven skull? or would you like me to make a new mesh?

[ihateregisteringeverywhere]

A new mesh, but you could basicaly just take the old skull, make the jawbone and cheekbones less extreuded and prolong the forehead a tad-bit. That should work quite well enough. The + on that is that you won't have to retexture it.

I would like something that is visibly different from the human skulls so to simply rename it is not what I was looking for. So I guess I am asking you to create a new mesh for it if it is not too much trouble. Cheers in advance.
