Ok Corthian, i have PM'ed you my e-mail address :check:
And yes, i do love new toys... i hope to have them soon :yes:
Remux, just compare the numbers used for the speed of a dagger (fast) and the speed of a claymore (slow) then you will know how to make a faster weapon

I PM'ed you the stuff. Right now I am planning on going down one of three pathes. On one hand: What makes a mod interesting? Unique weapons of course! I could make weapons that will be found in Feudal Lords' vaults. On the other hand: What makes a mod complete? New architecture and cities of course. I could work on new buildings and cites. In the gripping hand(I have always wanted to say and mean that): What makes a mod different? New Armor. I could go on a pilgrimage of the internet to find the secrets of rigging clothing.
Of all of these the first is probably the most possible, but not what I would like to do right now. I quess am bad at making desicions.
- Kodama - 12-01-2006
I suggest you try to learn something about rigging armor/clothing, that way you will become a better modder... so this should be the best choice for yourself, and if you do find out how to rig armor and clothing, we could finally get some armor in-game :yes:
If that does not work out for some reason, buildings would be the next best choice, they are very important to us... but if you decide to work on buildings for us, we will have to talk about it in detail.
And about Unique weapons, i think we don't need them right now... so if you want to, you could do that after the more important work.
I'm gonna check out that PM now, thanks a lot Corthian :goodjob:

Rigging it is. Wish me luck. Mind you I probably won't produce much soon due to the lack of tutorials and how no one seems to have encountered the error I have. I googled it and the first place I clicked was Ra's post for help. It looks bleak, but I will try.
EDIT: SCREW EVERYTHING I JUST SAID!!!
I just succsessfully rigged my first peace of clothing. I don't what I was doing wrong before but I just got it to work. I haven't been this excited in a long time. I was going through the steps while taking screenshots to post somewhere and just at the point where I was supposed to take the screenshot of the horribly wrong outcome and POW! I was pleasently surprised. I can finally help Ra out with those meshes he's got.

OMG! OMG! OMG! :applause: :dance: :cheers:
Those arrows are the coolest weapons in Oblivion yet! :bananarock: :banana:
....Hang on, you just learned how to rig CLOTHING!!!? ...OMG! OMG! OMG!
:jump: :jump: :jump:
Now we can get cool weapons, clothing and armor in-game, and just in time for my birthday too!!! (5 december) YAY!!! :bounce:
- Corthian - 12-01-2006
Those arrows are pretty awesome. I don't want to start a new mesh until I have rigged a few models. So Ra maybe I could take a look at those models you have.
- Kodama - 12-01-2006
I have seen all of the items in-game, the clothes don't really look that bad, and their textures look nice, so i'm sure that we can use them.
The japanese quiver looks great! I think that the arrows need to be tweeked a bit, the cross section of the arrow shaft looks square instead of round, i could not see if the vanilla Oblivion arrows are like that
hrug:But the arrows are really cool, and the bow looks cool too :goodjob:
- Ysne - 12-01-2006
Even if I'm a bit late. GOOD JOB!!!!!!!!!! :banana:
- Kodama - 12-01-2006
You are not that late Ysne
Corthian, do you wanna be an Akavir core member? ?(
It sort of looks like you are our new chief modeller
- Corthian - 12-01-2006
The shaft of the bows are Vanilla. I felt strange when I made the arrow heads because they used so many more polys than the rest of the shaft, Betheseda was trying so hard to save polys they made the arrows out of boxes. I have already put to use my new skill of rigging to tweak the clothes that I gave to you, the pants that were too tight on men and just looked creepy on the women have been changed. I finished tweaking the model so look they much better in game. I wont send it to you yet because I think I can make them even better. I want to know how I can get Ra's models because the thought of unrigged models makes me sad. One last thing, If there are any specific clothes or armor you want just ask.
Edit: Sure I guess. If you think I am good enough. I just like keep things moving.
