Green Trollbone? You like? Against lore? Huh?

Post by Dreadmaster Errtu »

Hi. I'm new. I posted my green Trollbone Armor here, so you can download it. It's in Seyda Neen. If I have done a bad thing by doing this, please tell me. Also any comments etc. will be welcome. Also, am I supposed to rename the items to make them fit with TR? Do you want screenshots? Tell me anything I missed or you would like to see changed, as I have no life (besides here, of course!) and plenty of free time. Except during school hours. Byebye...

TR has a naming scheme if your items get accepted.
Also you may want to post a screenie or two.

Thanks Assassinace. :D :D :D :D :D :D :D I'll get it done by this time tomorrow, but I might not be able to post it (evil parents). Also, I was wondering if there is anyone who can convert .gmax files to .nifs for me? PLEASE? I need to get better at gmax, but still.

I don't know if I did the pic right, and it's not the greatest angle, but here goes. Stay tuned for the next show, where we will be revealing the newest .zip file! Back to you, Bob.

Hmmm interesting. Looks a little bright, maybe a darker green would be better. Also, do you have an idea behind having this armor?

STORY?!!??!!?? :shock:

Maybe it could be from a green troll, or acid troll, or something. My feeling was that it would sort of be orcish, not Nordic like the original. As for darkening, I could easily do that. I thank you for helping me with this, it's greatly appreciated. And I can't find anything that says how I'm supposed to name things, so could someone write it here or put up a link? Thanks! And I think I'm going to post a new topic about gmax, seeing I'm poor and can't get 3DS Max. :(

But thanks again! :D

Dreadmaster Errtu

p.s. I know I don't sound worthy of the title dreadmaster, but you just wait until my BIG (for me) mod comes out. I'm just getting started, but believe you me, it's gonna be downright nasty. One feature will be a torture chamber, for all your evil needs.

"Sometimes in the past, an unlucky trader camped in the moistrous caverns of XXX. Soon he was attacked by a large creature. He fought valiantly but the creature was stronger. His armour lied there in centuries when it was found by an adventure. Over the time the bones of the armor had decayed abit and were covered in swamp" :P

Now you're talking, torture chambers. Rockin'.

I got bad news for you: You can't export .gmax files to .nif. There is one way to do it, but you lose all texture work and all animations. Check out [url=http://www.tamriel-rebuilt.org/old_forum/viewtopic.php?t=4017&start=0&postdays=0&postorder=asc&highlight=]this topic[/url] for more info.

No, you have to take a good look around the forums to get an idea of how things work around here. Read a lot of topics.

Ouch triple post.
Ok if you want to claim a quest you have to go to the quest forum and claim the quest you want.
(Basically you go to the quest claiming and post I want x quest and give as much info on it as you can)

:o No, I don't WANT a quest. Thanks, but no thanks. I'm more of a model/build/texture/landmass kinda guy. I was just wondering if I HAD to do a quest, and it looks like I don't. Well, bye for today. Now I'll look at other topics. See you tomorrow! 8)


Happy eating! :D

P.S.

STUPID STUPID STUPID (noot triple post there) INTERNET!!! AAAAARRRRGGGGHHHH!!! Just so you know, 24k ROYALLY BITES CARPET!!! :evil:

Wateva. :roll: Same thing to me! Here's a better pic. Who wants to bet that it will double-post again? :?

Oh Yeah. I'm getting further (grammatical error) on my mod. My idea is an (Imperial?) outpost in a plains type area, then maaaaajor jungles with barbarian Moarmer in them. They have raiding parties 'n such. And there's a huge temple in the deepest, thickest part of the jungle. You can go in it, there's zombies, forest creatures, skeletons, puzzles, traps, etc. And you ressurect a "forest guardian". Responses?

The armor looks better now, but maybe it could come from the swamp troll vorrheis has created?([url]http://www.cuneo.us/tesmw/browse.php?img=swamptroll.jpg&dir=vorrheis[/url])If so you'll need to adjust the green a bit, so it would look more like it's from the swamp troll.

Interesting armour, personalyi think the game kneeds more common armour than unique and this looks perfect, it would be moderately expensive with a medium armour rateing and probably light or more probably mrdium type armour...
Just my ideas, wat do u think??
Oh and r there going to be trolls in the game??

Johnny-

there already is a troll! didn't you read Teli's post :?: But, truly, thanks for the compliments. I was thinking it would be almost exactly like your average trollbone, but a wee bit more expensive and slightly stronger. But, it would be more commonly found, and more easily made. (just by asking how it's made, I mean, not by actually making it.)
It would be from an all too common swamp troll, or maybe even just swamps. Thanks again,

Dreadmaster Errtu :twisted:

ooops :oops: sorry...i was skim reading again...

Nice idea and io cant see any problems, now u just have to get it intothe game but i dont think u can add it to syda neen as we have a rule againsed moding the origional game (morrowind, tribunal and bloodmoon) as far as possible but it can probably be added to some of the places that we have made...I dont know much about wat u have to do to get something into the game but im shure there are people that do...

i know that this is a bit out of date, but just because something is green doesent mean that its bones are. lepards have spots but thier bones don't. also i think it is too green. you can fix it by colorizing it with a greyish color with a low opacity (20-30%) but, it might just be me.

Dreadmaster Errtu, can i have your permission to edit this a little bit?

*mwaha* By all means, go ahead! I hate that stuff now. Bleh! I don't know how i could be so bad at retexturing. (well, actually, all i did was use hue/saturation...i think...) You're right, it would look better that way.

Yes it is - there is not really much room for hardcore neon in the game, it seems, so yes.

Hmmm.... though this is quite similar in colour - bloody Dracus! :)

I like how you've toned down the neon green, but its actually still too uniform to be realistic. Try adding highlights, and different shades of green to add depth and texture.
