Here is the link to the new weapons spreadsheet.

UPDATE September 22: The Iron Tanto

Here is a better look at the Tanto

I realize it doesn't have the dragon on the bottom but considering that its iron I will save that for the steel version.

Looking really good, I saw it on that P3D site and it looks amazing, add some colour curves/tint to those textures and call it a masterpiece!

That looks great! I was

That looks great! I was trying to do some iron weapons, but have been working on my basic modeling skills before coming back to them.  A few of my models have turned out decently, send me a PM with your email if you would like me to send you what I've currently done.  I've gotten as far as my skills will currently allow, and would be happy to have someone take it from where I've left off.

I can't remember how the blade looked in Morrowind, but in general it is too thick ;-) Otherwise real nice work (I like the 3D view)

I think it looks great other than being a little too think like someone already mentioned. The thickness makes it look more like wooden toy sword you know. :P But that should be easy to fix, right? D:

i dont know what everyone is

i dont know what everyone is saying, the sword looks great, amazing work GGC, i personally think having variation on how wide swords are is nice, like if u look at morrowind, some swords do more thrust damage rather than chop, so this sword fits into that category

Thanks guys! Your support really helps. I actually fixed the blade I am just deciding whether its worth the time to redo the texture.

Don't redo the textures just tint the one on the handle to make it every so slightly browner, you have photoshop, right? Otherwise I could do it. Where do you find the sword in the game once you install it?

@LASentry: Thanks for the support. After you install the meshes and textures you need to download and enable my weapon fix plugin for the iron longsword which is in my first post. When you have the fix installed the mesh should appear correct and you can get the iron longsword anywhere it exists in the world. It is in the appropriate level lists and barter containers.

@LASentry Thanks man. It's nice to see my work appreciated. Eventually I hope to have all the weapons done but thats in the future.

My plan is to work my way up based on each weapons sets stats.

So when all the iron weapons are done I will move on to the next set.

Which I believe would be chitin. I'm doing this way in order to ensure that nothing is missed and so that nobody says wait a minute no one made an chitin dagger mesh. Now we have to go back and make one.

Inspired by

Inspired by thegreatgamecreator2's awesome work, I tried to make something on m own. Unfortunately my 3d skilll (and texturing skills) are puny so I'm guessing the model isn't even close to what we want in final stage.

http://p3d.in/CNryI

 

Well - anyway If any of you guys have some suggestions or maybe there is need for some much simpler models you think I might be able to make, let me know :)

Thanks tommythegun. :)

It looks good.

If you need help feel free to ask.

The way you get better is by practicing and making more models.

I can show you some things if you want.

When making the texture make sure to use 2048x2048 texture maps.

If you think weapons are to difficult you could try your hand at making clutter items.

Remember always start from a high res map than scale down if you need to.

You can scale down detail but you can't scale it up.

Don't be discouraged.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Everybody's work is important here.

@thegreatgamecreator2 - thank

@thegreatgamecreator2 - thank you very much - I already have few questions in mind. I'll bother you a bit when I finally get home from work and have some spare time (which might not be today, monday is a great day for visiting pubs :p )

@LASentry I wonder if you mean the general idea for the sword or just matter of tuning details? I'm totally aware that this model needs much and more improvement (and probably  should be redone in better quality) and the same goes to texture. But other than really poor quality of my work, I believe its pretty close to the ebony shortsword (broadsword? you know Sword of White Woe model) as I remember it. I ask because I wonder if my next approach should be about making better version, or changing the whole idea.

@Edgar_Shten I would if I could the settings I am using are the ones that I need to be able to run skywind without crashing.

when I package and release em I would be happy to post other peoples high res shots if the want.

@Lasentry I have never really timed myself but 6 or more hours give or take. It always depends on the model. The baking process takes up quite a bit of my time because I can't use my computer for anything else really while its baking.(These aren't concrete numbers just a guess, my sense of time can be skewed sometimes.)

The iron war axe had to be rebaked after the first try because of an out of bounds uv.

@Ice Thanks!

the fork has slightly too many polies, but otherwise great.

the dagger has a good look, but the edge wearing at that level should be modelled in, and added specular, else it looks like oil stains.

@Ravanna I don't think the fork has to many polys.

Its only 1,032 tris. This weapon only appears once in the game its a unique item.

I'll see what I can do on the dagger but I'm not going to make changes to past models until pretty much all of the set are done. Its not because I am against constructive criticism I just don't want to be in the position of taking one step forward and two steps back.

I love hearing from you guys and really appreciate your comments.
