Drunkside Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 THE BLACKGUARD MOD Finally made my first wip. This will be my first big mod, consisting of some reused areas, a quest and lots of BG items including "corrupted blades", which will be upgradeable lightsabers(all kinds are made, normal, double and short, read further for screens). All items are now ready, and im ready to start making areas. I actually did already get one almost ready when i realised it was the wrong module i was editing, so that will have to be made again from a scratch... If anyone wants to have their items included with this mod s/he should PM me a download link for the files and ill check if i think its fitting.
Lord of Hunger Posted March 30, 2009 Posted March 30, 2009 Best of luck! Let me know if you need someone to write a script. I like the mace, btw.
Drunkside Posted March 31, 2009 Author Posted March 31, 2009 Not right now at least, im good. Well see later if i need help, thanks for offering though.
The Betrayer Posted March 31, 2009 Posted March 31, 2009 Why is the placing of the spikes on the mace random?
Drunkside Posted March 31, 2009 Author Posted March 31, 2009 Cause i like randomness. Chaos=randomness, Blackguard=warrior of chaos. Ive decided that i will first model all the melee weapons just in gmax and then start importing them to the game. After that ill model the lightsabers and make them upgradeable, and finally, skin the armors(robe and heavy armor propably, or possibly a jal shey).
Drunkside Posted April 1, 2009 Author Posted April 1, 2009 Hmm i decided to place the mod on dantooine cause its easy to add a new area on the planes. does dantooine canonically have four seasons? since if it does, im going to make it winter there.
Drunkside Posted April 6, 2009 Author Posted April 6, 2009 Something you people have been eagerly awaiting(so it seems, no posts here other than mine): An update! Ive made some progress, the melee weapons are imported into the game. And since little babies, as they cant read, like pictures i decided to make them happy. I would also like to point out to the moderators that i dont like posting many times in a row, but people wont notice edits. Multiple posts are fine, even 'bumps' as long as they are an 'update' and not a simple bump. And those weapons look cool. -RH
Drunkside Posted April 22, 2009 Author Posted April 22, 2009 Ok so as maybe some of you non existing followers of this thread know, ivebeen having some trouble getting the lightsaber blade work. I got a fun idea today: lets try something Jesus said a long time ago: If the machine cannot do it for you, do it for machine! Or was it buddha... Anyway, i did the pivot point setting by hand and it worked on the first try. So here is something to look at, dear imaginary beings! You thought i had quit didnt you:p
Demongo Posted April 22, 2009 Posted April 22, 2009 Wait til you see the short lightsaber:p I'm looking forward to it:thmbup1:
Drunkside Posted April 23, 2009 Author Posted April 23, 2009 A little update here: I got the long sabers in game, and they work fine. Will start working on the shorties maybe tomorrow or the day after that.
Drunkside Posted April 24, 2009 Author Posted April 24, 2009 Ärrjaaaah im back again, and with a picture this time. Light brass knuckles: These will probably be used by a evil blackguard-assassin-chick Of course the player will be able to create shorties just as well as the normal and double bladed corrupted blades.
WraithPrince Posted April 24, 2009 Posted April 24, 2009 Good job with all the weapons. Btw how you plan on making the animations look right with those fist weapons?
Demongo Posted April 24, 2009 Posted April 24, 2009 Ärrjaaaah im back again, and with a picture this time. Light brass knuckles: These will probably be used by a evil blackguard-assassin-chick Of course the player will be able to create shorties just as well as the normal and double bladed corrupted blades. Wow I have no idea how you done that, but it looks cool.
Drunkside Posted April 24, 2009 Author Posted April 24, 2009 It actually looks good with all the anims (exept for the "use lightsaber on door"- animation, which looks like crap, and flourish which includes real bad self-mutilation ), i have been testing the animations for a while now, pausing the game in action to see clipping and stuff, and it works quite well. Next up is the boring work again, getting all the colors in game. Then getting the double blades in game, and after that i gotta figure out how to make them upgradeable. Once that is done, ill make the armors, and if everything goes well there might even be a little surprise coming:xp:
Drunkside Posted April 25, 2009 Author Posted April 25, 2009 A little update here: Im finished with the exporting the short sabers and have got them in game. I will probably start working on the exporting of the double bladed corrupted blade tomorrow.
Drunkside Posted April 27, 2009 Author Posted April 27, 2009 Double corrupted blade in game: This one is my least favorite... Thats why i left it last:xp: I will probably do the rest of the colors soon.
Drunkside Posted April 28, 2009 Author Posted April 28, 2009 Another little update here: I decided to make the different corrupted blades´ stat bonuses in this way: Short gives ab, normal gives ac and double does extra damage. Actually they all do a little extra damage, but the double does the most. This is both good for the players and the mod itself, as you will get to fight first three apprentices, one str based melee with a double bladed, one sneaky assassin with the shorties and finally a force user armed with a single saber, dueling and the feat that adds wis modifier to ac (hopefully making him a hard target). After those you get to fight their master, who is a freaking hybrid dude. Or would be if he was alive... *spooky laughter*
Drunkside Posted April 30, 2009 Author Posted April 30, 2009 All colors of the double work fine, next up is making them upgradeable.
The_Dark_Jedi_Malaka Posted April 30, 2009 Posted April 30, 2009 Nice work! I really like the sabers and the scythe. I do wonder how the heck you got the fists to do that... o__O'' Regardless, it looks amazing so far. Keep up the good work, and I'll be sure to check back soon.
Drunkside Posted April 30, 2009 Author Posted April 30, 2009 Thanks, but there probably wont be much to look at here in the coming days as i have to learn making the sabers upgradeable at the same time im actually doing it. Ill hopefully get tainas replacer tool soon too so i can start to work on the main bad guy.
Drunkside Posted May 3, 2009 Author Posted May 3, 2009 I just couldnt resist posting some pictures of the working upgradeable corrupted blades: I also decided to redo the exporting of the single saber, the blade is too low. Will get to that sometime soon.
Lord of Hunger Posted May 3, 2009 Posted May 3, 2009 This is great stuff, Drunkside! Btw, could you share some plot info on the Blackguard?
