Great Helm Add-On v.1.8 (Updated 06.16.09)

[Septa Scarabae]

The Great Helm Add-On v.1.8 is a compilation of modified Native textures and meshes, that when combined, create twenty five variations of the three great helms seen in Native. Seventeen are based off of the standard Great Helm. Four are based off of the Maciejowski Winged Helm and four are based off of the old Maciejowski Winged Helm. All of these textures are in *.dds format.

Notice to Mod Makers: This file contains an assortment of items for use with Mount & Blade. All of the modified textures and meshes provided can be used freely in any Mount & Blade modification. This includes both using them on an as-is basis and editing them to your heart's content. Please give credit.

Great Helm Add-On v.1.8 (3.2MB)

Hehe... fantastic. I'll be adding this one to the list of add-ons for my mod. I needed a helmet with horns and yours looks pretty decent so thank you!

[Adorno]

Well this is getting better and better 

[killkhergit]

Do you need LOD's for this pack?

[jik]

Kool.  I actually did the same with my heraldic jousting helmets.  Made a few paint and accessory variations.  Nice work, like the gold texturing.  The ones I made are intended for jousting (1 on 1) so I didn't think about LODs.

[FrisianDude]

Cool. I'm gonna use all of the maciejowski_helm.brf, with the horns. I especially love maciejowski_helmet_new4.

[Septa Scarabae]

John McCain as my witness, we're cutting out the pork here. File size is down to 1.3MB from 15.9MB. All the items have been UV mapped again, which brought everything down to three texture sheets. If there are any problems in-game, let me know. I also made use of the installer script by Janus, so just go ahead and run that *.exe to install the mod.

I don't have time to test it at the moment, but everything looked good in BRFEdit.

[thick1988]

Your addons are always very useful and easy to implement. Thanks for the work.

[jik]

how about with horns down, for a more evil character look.

I gotta go back to my heraldic helms and fix them up.

[Septa Scarabae]

Similar to this, or were you thinking something different?

[fisheye]

Awesome as always!

[jik]

Similar to this, or were you thinking something different?

I was thinking more down (almost straight down), but that's good.  Textures do a lot!

With my jousting helms, it's also about painted designs (based on heraldry).  If I can get it working, I'll post a pic

[StefanR1993]

Is there any other way you could use this mod for example do it yourself instead of automatic. As I'm using other mods and when I use this it get rids of them.
Hope there is cus this mod is fantastic

Thank you

[StefanR1993]

Thank you very much

[Bismarck]

Will this be added to the OSP helm pack? It would be a nice addition.
By the way, could you make 2 Teutonic great helmets? The one with a hand on top of the helm + the horned edition?
