SP Other Beer, War and Teutonic Knights

[Swagger]

Could you use a nice lance for the Teutonic Order?

Spoiler

Nice, but I thought about something like these lances:

just going a little TW in here, why dont you ask the BALTS team for permission to use a few/many/some of their models (shields helmets) and even textures, and convert them to M&B?

That's easy, I'll just invert the colors. I won't add vamplates, because vamplates are for pussies....

Thanks a lot for your offer, but I want to make a new lance model with vamplates.

That's funny, because I am a member of BALTS and I have MADTAO's permission (Baltic Crusades team leader) to use all his stuff. You read my mind Swagger 
I don't use his models, but I use his textures to learn (because he is a texturer God), for inspiration and I also use his Teutonic and Lithuanian symbols, like this:

awesome that will actually speed up the progress

shame TWC has been down


anyway, why dont you use their models, no offense but that is quite a waste?

 

[Gothic Knight]

Those hats aren't modifications of dejawolfs, are they?

Nope, but they're LDK's.

 

[Albertus Magnus]

Who is dejawolfs?
And these Kettle hats are my models. (the mail coif is from Warband) 

I'm sorry I didn't intend to offend you. These kettlehats just reminded me of two
kettlehats from dejawolf, who made a mediveal helmet pack once:

Spoiler

(First and third one.)
...but I checked details and they're different 
Good work and good luck for further work!

No biggie, LDK used to be part of the graphic team of IG, so I would notice his style. Deja did a good job with those helms though.

I am not offended  I just didn't know who is dejawolf (now I know who is). Our kettle hats are similar because we used the same reference: kettle hats from XIV century. And our great helmets will be similar too, because he has made this helmet (the quarter):

Spoiler

and I will use this one as reference.

shame TWC has been down

Yeah. I think that it was the biggest TWC down, it started one week before, yesterday it was ok, but today it's down again 

anyway, why dont you use their models, no offense but that is quite a waste?

Two reasons:

1) MTW2 models are very low poly, too low poly for M&B. In Warband, these models will look bad, like lods. 
2) Because I want to make them. I enjoy a lot making 3D models. And in this way I also improve my 3D moddeling skills.

It all looks very nice indeed! Good luck mate!

 

[Trueten]

Truelly amazing, but... only two factions? Would be nice to add Poland and Rus.

 

[Idibil]

Great work, soldier!

 

[killerrabbit]

Would be more logical if Novogrod (independent at the time) would be added than Rus, simply because of the fact that the Rus played no part in the conflict.
On the other hand, Poland did play a role as a former ally of the Teutons, so might be woth considering.

 

[E.M.Baguette]

Truelly amazing, but... only two factions? Would be nice to add Poland and Rus.

Of course it would be amazing, but it's a one man mod and I prefer to have two well done factions, than four factions with less quality. 

 

[killerrabbit]

Agreed. Rushing the mod won't do us any good, but, you might want to add those factions in a 2.0 version of the mod.

Completely your choice of course.

 

[Trueten]

you might want to add those factions in a 2.0 version of the mod.

I believe it's the way the things will go.

Is it SP only? Or MP might be as well ?

Good luck with the development.

My priority is to make first a playable SP campaign.

ldk, why dont you ask Rus XIII team for some models?


anyway, i've never modded M&B, but if there's anyway i can help, contact me plz

 

[E.M.Baguette]

Yeah, they have made a lot of nice models, but did they make something for Teutonic Order or Lithuania? I have to research.

One beer please!

Rus XIII models were made for Mount&Blade, they won't look that good in Warband. Warband items retexture will be the best option.

yes for both Teutonic Order and Lithuania

True, I just saw that in their screenshot's thread. But as I said before, I want to make my own models
