If you intend to make entirely new meshes for every crossbow type then it is certainly reasonable to not further edit the current textures. Whatever is easiest for you guys. I haven't a clue what it takes to create a mesh.

By the way, that bolt looks very nice. Could I request that the flights be enlarged a bit? They just don't appear quite large enough to support a head that size. I'm not trying to nitpick, just asking.




Yes, I was very surprised at the number of extraordinarily talented people who showed an interest in this project. In spite of that, you're still missed. :goodjob:

HeyYou and I are working on a couple of angles to overcome the animation problem. I don't know what will come of it, but I'm hoping to be able to work something out.

And Nico is amazing. What more can be said?

Awwww, I'm not all that.
Please give thanks to Windy instead of me for finding the way to hack NifSkope into thinking that two meshes were the same mesh, and creating the bowmorph for you. That discovery was solely 'The Windy's' doing.
None of the bows I made would have been possible without Windy.
Thank you wherever you are. :foodndrink:

Sure, at this stage everything is WIP so it can easily be adjusted , I'm not sure exactly how big they need to be, http://www.invision.tesalliance.org/forums/uploads/1280755202/gallery_378_5_17354.png.

Just checking in to see if there has been anymore progress. I admit, after a very active start, I haven't heard much. I imagine things are coming along well.



To answer your question, the size of the bolt is primarily dependent on what size you make the crossbows. Of course, if could be the other way around too, with the crossbows being fitted to the bolts. Either way, the bolts probably shouldn't be more than half the length of a typical arrow in the game. I do know that the bolt should not be longer than the distance between the end of the crossbow and the place where the string is latched.

Just out of curiosity, how many different versions are you personally planning to make? I've not heard enough from the different individuals interested to know who is working on what, with the exception that you've shown me you are working on some bolts. Are you and StarX in touch with one another?


Anyhow, if I may, I'd like to make another request. I was hoping in the future we can consolidate our communications to the http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1107807-relz-crossbows-of-cyrodiil-update-thread/. This would save some time and space. It will allow me to update only one thread when things are added and still be in touch with each of you.

Thanks again everyone. :goodjob:

Heya Linus! IS and I are working closely together at the moment on another project that's almost finished. After that we'll have more time to look at both the x-bows and the bolts. :foodndrink:

Will use the other thread for future post!
