Thanks, Trademark! :foodndrink:




John123, it is support like yours that keeps me making capes as if I were some sort of demonically possessed tailor... :hehe::

lol no prob, your mod is one of my "dont play without" mods

Two more preview screenshots...capes that match vanilla middle class clothing sets and will be sported by various NPCs in version 3.0 (and available for purchase):

P.S. :cough: :cough: Available for purchase *in game.* :rolleyes:

some more nice lookin capes, cant wait for V.3! also hem i just relized im running V2 beta, is it any different than regular v2? thx

I don't recall. :hehe:

I think the only difference was a texture path problem on Godwin's shield...which was fixed...but you probably have the patch for that. :wink_smile:

Regards,

Hem

P.S. Why oh why did they have to make the male and female versions of "brown shirts" different colors of brown? I guess I will need to make a male and female mesh and texture....if the capes are to match the clothes...

The 2.0 Beta came out before 2.0 Release Version, so you are using the older version.

While I am using the alpha version which contains some of the stuff posted throughout this thread..up to a point.. :twirl: - I have around 150 Amulet or Tail varations of capes in alpha version...I still have not seen them all yet even in MMM..

oh ok good, just wanted to make sure i wasnt missing any capes and are the clothes actually different colours?, i never noticed


ya i was just makin sure i wasnt missing anything

Greetings:

As previously discussed, during the development of version 3.0 (and likely thereafter), I will be revising or enhancing the textures for many of the original capes, particularly those I created early in the process of teaching myself how to make textures.

Tonight I have posted a screenshot showing a comparison of version 1 and version 3 http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/images/30101-1-1283911492.jpg. I invite comment. I like the new testure much better, but beauty is often times in the eyes of the beholder.... :wink_smile:

I will be working next on the regional town guard capes (as those are the ones you see the most when you play) and, in the event I finish the rework of all the guard capes before the rest of version 3.0 is ready, I may release am interim texture upgrade pack.

Enjoy!

Amazing work Hemmingway, love all the new screens you've recently posted . Version 3 is going to be fantastic! Can't wait to see them all in the game world

Very nice! I love the new IL texture and the Grey Fox cape - outstanding!

Cheers,
PKR.

I like them both, but prefer the newer version... Keep up the good work, really looking forward to v 3.0, especially the leveled list addition :goodjob:

very nice legion capes hem, good job! :goodjob:

The leveled list addition?

Let me explain and clarify...(or possibly obfuscate and bewilder :wink_smile: ) --

Version 3 will use custom leveled lists to add appropriate capes to bandits, vampires, marauders, conjurers, dremora and other adversaries. (In the MMM version, random cape disbursemant will likely be limited mostly to bosses, as there are alot more adversaries in MMM, than Vanilla.) A limited chance for a cape to appear on a given adversary and selection thereof from a list designed for that adversary type means that acquiring or seeing certain capes will be a matter of chance, etc. etc. There *may* be (actually, likely will be) some pre-enchanted capes in the mix (100 or so variations is my present goal), and I *may* use other means to introduce capes into the game, such as adding cape leveled lists to the contents of certain loot containers...still pondering that one.

In any event, glad ya'll like the new capes...everytime I open the CS, I suddenly have another idea for a cape....however, I am tryyyyyying to be disciplined and work on the mechanics of the mod, rather than allow myself to indulge each sudden whim to see what a new texture idea might look like. :hehe:

Regards,

Hem

It's all good. I just want to see some NPCs getting your capes on, and the rare chance of finding one in a chest!

...oh...and more http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/images/30101-2-1284230439.jpg in colors to match various uppper class Vanilla Oblivion cothing sets (except for the gold one, but I liked it anyway). :wink_smile:

Regards,

Hem

yay more capes! these ones look very fancy, nice work Hem! :goodjob:

Some more cool capes, Hem! i love that new green hunters cape in the gallery

:lol: @ John123

I suffered a power surge here and lost my post in mid-edit and you beat me to it. Too funny.

So...yes...the Hunter's Capes were an early effort of mine. In fact, the Hunter's Cape design was the second "double" or mantled cape I created (the first being the "Outland Knight's Cape," which features the Cross of Saint George).

Simpler can be better, and the Hunter's Capes have been among the most popular. However, not knowing when to leave well enough alone, I have reworked the textures and expanded the color choices from 3 to 6 (adding black, blue and brown). The preview screenshot (which also shows the original textures in the lower righthand corner) can be viewed http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/images/30101-1-1284303060.jpg

Progress on version 3.0 is chugging along now and I can see an end in sight -- most of my current work on this mod is in the CS. Capes have been added "by hand" to over one hundred *additional* citizens/NPCs, and I am currently working on adding capes to adversaries such as necromancers, conjurers, bandits, marauders, dremora, etc. (Note that the capes will appear on adversaries somewhat at random, so, for example, not every blackbow bandit will have a cape and not every cape sported by a blackbow bandit will be a blackbow bandit cape, etc.) I plan to add some magic capes to my cape leveled lists and, perhaps, some cape leveled lists to some loot chests. Not everything I desire to do will make it into version 3.0...but there can always be a version 4. :whistling:

Look for a release in about a month (at least that is what I am currently projecting).

Regards,

Hem

Lol thought that might make ya laugh

i do like the thought of pre-enchanted capes, ive got one right now, the eagle feather, with a fortify magic enchant, its really useful. i wish i could texture capes like you can, i wanna make a lost spires cape to go with my warlock robes, but i cant get it to look good at all

Hmmmmm....perhaps....a Lost Spires cape.... .

might be a thought :hubbahubba:

Hemingway, have my baby. :liplick:

Sorry, bud. I haven't the necessary plumbing for such a task. :blink:

I looked at the robe texture and it should be very doable. I have an idea for what I would do, but it will take a little effort (have to avoid stretched and mangled runes, if possible).

I will post a screenshot if I try my hand at making a warlock cape.

Regards,

Hem

thx Hem! cant wait for it! :celebration:
