[WiPz?] More Unique Jewelry

It's real easy to use nifskope like that. Just open the mesh you want in a separate window, select copy branch and then paste it in the other window. Then right click the model you want and select transform to move it to where you want it.

The Divine amulet doesn't look bad, but the three clan ones just don't fit my game. Besides, why would the three clans want so similiar looking amulets in the first place? Aundae could be more ornate (mages like shiny things ;) ), Berne common-looking (they favour stealth after all) while the Quarra one the most crude (they're berserkers). Just my two cents.

Good idea. I haven't played as any of the Clans, so I wasn't too familiar with their styles. I'll see what I can do to make it interesting!

So, the new Amulet of Diving Intervention is good? I could try for something simpler if this one looks too ornate.

I like it, but in the screenshot, the details look a little blurred. Is there a way to sharpen the image just a bit? Or perhaps add something to make it look slightly more worn (to explain why the lines aren't sharp?)

And since I didn't get back here eariler, I love the new Horator's Robe and Belt. :thumbsup: The Septim ring also in particular looks amazing.

Can't do anything about making it sharper. I'm using vanilla textures, and the amulet part is from the Akatosh design on the front of the Duke Silver Cuirass (which is kind of smallish). If you use a texture replacer for armor (Sharpened Armor, Darknut's replacer, Connary's upcoming replacer), then the design will doubtless look less blurred. :)

Your stuff looks great! I really like how your keeping the vanilla feel of everything, makes it seem more natural, ya know? And you should mos def do something with those robes because they're awesome! I am really looking forward to the final product!

Okay, I've tinkered around with things a bit for the vampire amulets. Let me know what you think!

http://i468.photobucket.com/albums/rr50/Alaisiagae/Mod%20Screenshot%20MW/Misc/amulet_berne.jpg - same mesh as a common amulet, but I used a dark horn texture from the mace of slurring
http://i468.photobucket.com/albums/rr50/Alaisiagae/Mod%20Screenshot%20MW/Misc/amulet_quarra.jpg - uses a daedric texture
http://i468.photobucket.com/albums/rr50/Alaisiagae/Mod%20Screenshot%20MW/Misc/amulet_aundae.jpg - mostly uses part of the exquisite robe texture, uses an expensive amulet mesh

I changed the Belt of the Hortator to better match the ring and the robe:

http://i468.photobucket.com/albums/rr50/Alaisiagae/Mod%20Screenshot%20MW/Misc/belt_hortatorv3.jpg

Yay or nay?

Also, I didn't like the Quarra amulet, so I changed the texture: http://i468.photobucket.com/albums/rr50/Alaisiagae/Mod%20Screenshot%20MW/Misc/amulet_quarrav2.jpg

Was the buckle on that belt always so big? :blink:

Nice textures, though. I like the general themes.

I particularly like what you've done with the Aundae amulet. :)

Yup, that's the vanilla exquisite belt mesh. I guess Dunmer are into big flashy cowboy/wrestler belts. I can imagine it would be a bit uncomfortable to sit down, since the buckle would dig into one's stomach; good thing no one in Morrowind can sit down! :P

Egads, it's just like the 80s. I used to have one of those giant butterfly belts that would try to cut me in two every time I had to sit down. Ah, them were the days. *creak*

Anyhoo ... it's all looking good. :)

Alright! Vampy amulets lookin' spot on! They capture the clans, I think. I only suggest you make the Quarra look more...raw or blunt. Something that explemplifies the brute strength of the clan. It still looks great though. The Berne amd Aundae amulets are perfect.

Good work :thumbsup:

@Alaisiagae
Are you using the gold coin texture for this ring - http://i468.photobucket.com/albums/rr50/Alaisiagae/Mod%20Screenshot%20MW/Misc/ring_akatosh.jpg?

If so, realize there are some gold piece texture replacers (pluginless) that will change the tail's side of the coin to something other than the signature TES dragon symbol - e.g. PKR's various gold replacers (highly recommended btw).


Just out of curiosity, what texture are you using for the face of this ring - http://i468.photobucket.com/albums/rr50/Alaisiagae/Mod%20Screenshot%20MW/Misc/amulet_divinev2.jpg?

So far, lookin' good! :thumbsup:

Nope, that's the templar belt buckle "tx_c_templar_beltbuckle.bmp"

That's the center design on the Duke's Silver Cuirass, as seen http://www.uesp.net/w/images/MW_Armor_ImperialDukeM.jpg. :)

@LucienFairfax: Yes, I'll do the icons, too. Pain in the butt to do them, but I'm getting plenty of practice with the other mods I'm working on.

@MarkHuney: I'll see what I can come up with for something a bit more savage for the Quarra. :)

Okay, I was able to upload the meshes. If you'd like to check them out, http://www.mediafire.com/?jiojc5d4kjy. I also included a readme that describes what changes could be made to the mesh to make it more manageable to put nice new textures on! :D

I still need help with this. Also, if you spot any other irregularities with the UV, feel free to correct them! :cookie:

It's nice man. Simple, crud, and dark. Thats what I think of when I think of the Quarra.
This is really looking nice. Once again, great job.

At this rate, I won't ever wear any amulets anymore but just admire it on my shelves. Looking great!

Thanks. :) I'm actually not really satisfied with the Quarra amulet. I'm going to keep fiddling around with textures and meshes.... *straps on thinking cap*

Perhaps you could try to play with the http://www.uesp.net/w/images/BM-Img-TotemOfClawAndFang.jpg from Bloodmoon?

Other then that, I have a question concerning the Aundae amulet - why would vampires use a sun motif in their jewelery? Unless you're making the Aundae Signet Ring with such a design :deal:

I made that the Hunter's Amulet of strength. It actually uses one entire texture, so finding another texture with enough varied bits is actually kind of difficult.

Other then that, I have a question concerning the Aundae amulet - why would vampires use a sun motif in their jewelery? Unless you're making the Aundae Signet Ring with such a design :deal:

Because the entire amulet (barring the chain) uses one texture. I went for the exquisite robe texture because it had enough varied bits on it. Why would they use the sun? Um... good... good question. Um. I'm going to go tinker with that again. :bolt:



Okay, new Quarra Amulet!

EDIT:

http://i468.photobucket.com/albums/rr50/Alaisiagae/Mod%20Screenshot%20MW/Misc/amulet_aundaeV2.jpg - I did a bit of research on UESP, seems Aundae are mostly comprised of Altmer... and glass armor is in the High Elven style... so there you go... yay or nay?
