[WIPzRELz] Improved Meshes (weapons & armor parts)

Post » Sat Jul 26, 2014 6:44 pm

Yes, my dissatisfaction with most existing mesh "improvements" is what made me start doing my own. I hope you haven't missed my http://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/43120/? (actually, they are completely new meshes, but I tried to stay true to the original designs as closely as possible).

Not sure but do you think that diamond shaped symbol is supposed to be the Imperial dragon sigil? Or whatever its proper name is...

If it is then it's a bit distorted in your version, Pherim... It's still a major improvement though! :thumbsup:

Maybe, but it's unclear from the texture... the original is way too small to see it in detail, and Darknut's texture doesn't have it, but yeah, the uv mapping in this part is a little different in my version than it was in the original, so the proportions are a bit off.

Well, it is imperial armor and has diamond shape there, I would suppose it is imperial dragon :)

I personally think having a dragon symbol on the front of one of the lower ranking imperial helms would look a bit out of place. Perhaps when I see it I'll change my mind, but I think any fancy symbol on the front of the helm would look weird.

Well, if someone provided a texture with the dragon symbol and it looks weird on my mesh, I'd be willing to adjust the mesh to it. :wink:

Looks like I can't decide on one single weapon style to focus on... here's the bonemold bow: https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-ZtN3JruGyNg/U9OSHmCOF5I/AAAAAAAABqs/cYASLl2LWik/s0/bonemold_bow_comparison.jpg

Still has to be animated before I can upload it.

Maybe I will exclude the bows from their styles and just make a mod which contains all bows. Then the mods which cover certain styles, like the one for steel I already released would only contain melee weapons. Or the bows could be available in both. Well, we'll see. It's just that I have too much fun making bows right now. :wink:
