REALISTIC NATIVE WEAPON SIZES


See a SLIDESHOW with many pics of the new sized-weapons at Imageshack!

THIS MODs PRIMARY HOME IS THE MBX FORUM . If you're able, please go there for comments and discussion.

Downolad link at the M&B Unofficial File Repository.

Very simply, this mod reduces the size of all oversized native weapons (not polearms though) to about 80-85% of original. It also turns the broadsword into a Cinqueda style Shortsword. Comes ready to play for Native and with Python source code pruned for easy implementation into other mods. RCM and vanilla versions.

CURRENT VERSION:
v1.61 - Bugfix: the RCM item1 file of v1.6 was broken, fixed now. Broadened the blade and scabbard of the war sword by 15%, replaced the boar spear, peasant knife and Khyber knife with models by Ron Losey, implemented the reading from module installation - RNWS no longer replaces or interferes with original native files or with mods not set to use RNWS.

IN THE WORKS:
  • Finally fixing the Strange Swords from the hidden chests
  • ...and finally, for an RNWS Deluxe, resizing of the Raptor Pack Albion swords to correct measurements (from the Albion homepage) and adding of scabbards (the scabbards are property of TLD and will only be in the RNWS-ed TLD)

The following mods use or plan to incorporate the Realistic Native Weapons Size:


Feel free to use it in your own mod, although please give me credit for it and drop a line about it in this thread so that I know of it.

Ha! I thought you meant arms - as in anatomy. But good nonetheless, I'll have a read in awhile.

Hmmm, I think the board rules there forbid me from having a download link here, but it's on the repository. Just make a search there and you'll find it with no prob, methinks.

(although wait five minutes, because I'm about to update with a small bugfix)

You're allowed to link to the full details page of your download, but you're not allowed to directly link to the file itself.

And rolling on...

v1.3 is up!

This includes a rebalance of axes, mainly the reduction of the still colossal double axe into a 1-hander and the upgrading of the Fighting Axe into a 2H-hander. Also fixed the grip point for Arming sword and sword and corrected the resulting slightly increased length (is now 80 like comparable new swords).

And please, if you like this, be so nice as to give the mod a good rating on the repository, some bozo who thinks the original sizes were perfectly realistic has given me a half star rating and I fear it will detract from the rep of this mod.

(Judge for yourselves, this is the original size, is it realistic and historical?)

It's difficult to judge when you don't say what kind of sword it is  :wink:
But I'm going to assume it's a Bastard sword, in which case I'd say the length looks okay, at about 1.5m or so?

Btw, is this the M&B-original or your downsized version?

Downsized


Original.

Down-sized looks waaaaaay better.  :lol:

Question: Does the reduced size increase speed? Or did you just leave it[speed] the same?
