ACCEPTED Greatsword Sheaths and Scabbards Redux (by rpsgc, MadCat221)

Greatsword Sheaths and Scabbards Redux by rpsgc, MadCat221

Wiki Link

'Greatsword sheaths and scabbards' already adds scabbards to most greatswords but it's incompatible with 'Skyrim Weapon De-LARP-ification Project' (aka 'Thinner Weapon Blades').

 

 

Not wanting to give up on any of those mods I decided to create a mod that combines both of them. You still need 'Skyrim Weapon De-LARP-ification Project' for all other weapon types so this mod should be installed after 'Skyrim Weapon De-LARP-ification Project'.

 

(I created a new thread because the original mod is, quite bluntly, useless for STEP considering that incompatibility/conflict with a core STEP mod.)

 

 

So here it is, I hope you like it.

 

Greatsword Sheaths and Scabbards with Thinner Blades

I could have sworn this has been posted before. Anyway, thanks for your mod, rpsgc! :)

You're probably thinking of the original mod. But since, you know, the original clashes with a core STEP mod, I thought this one needed its own thread.

I'm trying to create an optional pack of smaller sheaths/scabbards for all the swords but I'm not sure on colour schemes. Should I make the scabbard's colour similar to the sword's colour? Or just a neutral colour scheme all around?

 

 

What do you think of this?

I would say most are fashioned to match the make of the weapon, even if it's only remotely similar. Elven = elvenish, dwarven = dwarvensih, ebony = ebonyish scabbard. Most scabbards would probably be made of leather, wood, or the same material as the blade in that time as well.

I'm no texture artist, I do what I can with my limited knowledge and skill.

 

I mean, should I even bother with this:

 

 

 

Or just slap the vanilla leather holder and be done with it?

I would say just use what you had above with the three images for now with variant colors. Maybe my other suggestion could be a WIP over time if you feel like it. If not, what you had above with variant colors looks just fine IMO.

I've uploaded v2 of the mod which includes only small scabbards. Let's just hope people don't hate them, as I don't expect them to love them :P

 

 

[rpsgc]

And v2.1 is up with more crappy textures by me! (well, they're technically Bethesda's) :P

 

 

 

Doesn't it just make your eyes bleed?

The second one actually matches quite well.

Lol, those actually don't look terrible (at least they're different from just leather).  You should hit up CaBaL and see if he'd be willing to skin them to match his weapons.

Dragonborn optional file is up (I had it done within a few hours of DB but I had to wait for MadCat221 to update his mod, I can't edit 3D objects)

For the boxes that say Skyrim or Skyrim Vanilla, Dawnguard or Dawnguard Vanilla and Dragonborn or Dragonborn Vanilla....which three do we choose? X or X vanilla?

 

 

EDIT: Sorry, I just read the Readme. I should have done that first. We choose the NON-Vanilla options for Skyrim Weapon De-Larp right?

[z929669]

Yes, use default for the thinner blades (vanilla has thick blades)

[DoubleYou]

Do we want to consider the Full-size scabbards?
