arquebus, musket mod idea

Recommended Posts

Ive been thinking about slowly implementing some mods to slowly integrate a fantasy world IVe created into Oblivion.

 

One of the most drastic changes are the addition of firearms. So Im asking modders who have experimented in this before: crossbows, guns, etc.

 

Besides the model, Im seeing I will have to create animations for the character and the weapon models.

 

Character: Im seeing a standing position for firing from standard walking. Im seeing firing from kneeling position when sneaking. Then there is the arm positions of extending the left hand to grip the stock. The recoil. The reloading.

 

Weapon model animations: recoil. lining up the hammer/matchlock to the reloading and firing sequence animations of the character. Then a sprite package for the fire erupting from the barrel. Plus replacing "arrow" models with "bullet" models and their impact upon the enemy. No arrow sticking out of them, but a puff of smoke and splash of blood upon impact.

 

Im not looking to make overly powerful weapons, just a new flavor.

 

Would anyone want to partner up with me on the project? Preferably someone who has done a mod like this before or a crossbow mod?

 

Does anyone have suggestions for tutorials? I plan on using 3D Studio MAX for modeling and skinning. Photoshop for texture creation. I havent done something like this in years, so Im a little rusty :)

 

Anyway, over time I want to replace the facade of locations and NPCs all over the game to dub it over with my fantasy world. So you'll be hearing me asking a lot of questions over the year ;)

 

Kindest regards,

There are a few mods out there which add things such as arquebus rifles. They use the same thing as a staff, by casting massively overpowered fireballs.

 

There are a few of them on Youtube. But I really wouldn't reccomend you bother using any of them. If I were you, just stick with normal magic, sword and shield, and a bow

Nah, Im set on the idea. If I get it to a degree of computability that I feel its worth distributing, I shall do so. Anyone not interested in the idea need not bother with it. But those that are interested are more than welcome!

theres a mod with a flintlock pistol, but thats the closest ive seen. If you want a musket i suggest taking a modern day rifle mod thats alrdy been made and start with that
