Gekokujo: Submods (Announce, Release, Comment, and Suggest)

[Melphiz]

I would be careful with music. I wonder who checks for licence and copyright issues for usage of licensed music. Like in the Naruto Mod (if anyone ever played it), it was full of Linkin Park etc. but as far as I know, one isn't simply allowed to put licensed music into a game/mod without having the rights to. And in MnB those files aren't even encoded, means it's like sharing music as one can grab the .ogg out of the folder.

 

[Hasegawa_Taizou]

Im glad to hear you) You know I tried to choose music from different places but in one style. Please write if any composition is out of game style and "spirit". Ill try to change it on more suitable. About jacob's armour - you know most of his armours need stronger computers(than my one) to work with 300 characters, wearing it. I also tried to include it in my compilation but i decided to take only "bandit style" okegawa(thats really great!!!). Unfortunately the system of mode is incompatible with Jacob's one (it can be added only by people, whos close to modding). Thats my big mistake - but i made mod for me and the idea of publishing it came to me too late But im still realising my new ideas about improvementing this submod. And ill be glad to hear ideas from everyone who interested in history and japan))) To tell the truth my great ambition 3-4 monts ago was just making nobori. I began searching for them but nobody did what i wanted. And i also collected things  i liked in other japan mods to make Geko more interesting and realistic. And 4 monts later at last i made what i wanted with my own hands)) Thats the example of dreaming and making dreams real

in my country nobody cares about copyrights)) and that will be my sanction))))

I've tried it and I like the changes

Were you by any chance the one who added the Furinkazan fan shields for the takeda though? Also I love that Shingen Helmet. How would I got about getting these items??

 

[Hasegawa_Taizou]

You know im very sorry, i made these items unic in order not to ruin game's balance, and "spirit". If you dont know how to make items merchandable ill put here items.txt with takedas helm in shops. But with furinkazan is worst thing - the game doesnt see shields and shields cant be added to market shalves. I added tessens only to few companions and some lords. Tessen cant be bought in market or i dont know how to add it there(but you can take it from companion!))). And with helms i can tell one good thing - in last update there is jingasa - iron gasa with hair(officers' helm) - a little similar to Shingen's one. And sometimes it can be bought in markets. I repeat if you want it ill give you txt file allowing buy takedas helm - but please first think about balance and spirit)))) In last update i also improved banners' animation - they won't dance in warriors' hands anymore.

And about furinkazan - yes, im first to use it as shield i suppose(im not the creator of that cool things unfortunately) - because in Bunroku mode they (all tessens) were just decorative(in interior directory) but furinkazan itself wasnt there - it was in takedas' ashigaru folder - i think it was used as weapon at first. But it was me who built Takeda helmet from different pieces)))

Is there any way to implement the armors from Onin no Ran? I know its a different time period but i really like those armors.
And i like to do this again: http://social.xfire.com/videos/eb7bf

i suppose i've understood what you want. And i can just offer you to check the mansion lords before on Tsushima and Sado islands. Please, check them - maybe they have the things you want so badly.(you also should update mode and begin the new game if you havent done it yet. and by the way, i also like ancient samurai armor - in the Throne of Blood movie there were evil spirits, looked similar to warriors from century or two before)
And about Onin no ran - i also liked it but its easier to search the last mods with great arsenal, not the first one)))

 

[firey5]

I used the Suguroku submod and I like the new items it adds. However, auto-upgrade doesn't seem to recognize these items. Companions usually take off these items even though there are no better items. I hired Sessai and he took off his komuso. I hired Shih and she took off the new women's clothes. Also, what does the tessen do?

This is unrelated, but how can I bring back the "companions carry the loot" system from 2.0?

Well that's nostalgic...

With the right tools it's possible to put them in Gekokujo, just don't ask me about the tools or how to do it, it's been almost 6 years since I've done any modding for Onin no Ran.
Back then I had created some nice new armor models that were actually period correct for the Onin war (not all of the armor in the Onin no Ran mod was period correct), the models were pretty much ready to be put in-game, but Fujiwara had financial problems and so the mod died... in the end the new armor models were never implemented.
I remember recommending the O-yoroi model to be removed from the game because it was post period, but Fujiwara would have none it (lucky for you I suppose), instead I recommended just going wit O-sode domaru and haramaki-do, but who would heed the advice of someone who is capable of appraising antique Japanese armor anyway?

So is it the large shoulder armor (the O-sode) that you like about the Onin no Ran mod's armor?
Although they were out of style in 1568, they were never completly gone either, some Daimyo would still have armor with O-sode, so it would be nice to see one or two kozane armors with O-sode like that in Gekokujo for some of the Daimyo.
If it's the wide neck guards you like, they went out of style too because they left the neck somewhat exposed, but they would still be occasionally seen with high ranking lords, particularly with the lords of the Uesugi family domain, their helmets often had a so called ****a-jikoro, a second neck guard that was more close fitting.
Oda Nobunaga owned an armor with the old style kasa-jikoro (umbrella neck guard) and it has O-sode as well. All scale armor like that could come with a hefty one million mon price tag or more.
So there is some historical basis for these things to be put in Gekokujo.

Cheers!

you know - you can do whatever you want(including publishing) with the mod and its contents - but please, use the authors' list in the end of the mod page - just write the authors names in your readme and use all the resources from Suguroku as you like))). And im sorry - the previous updates sometimes crushed the saves - i changed the txt files - they are importaint for the game system and saves. And soon i'll upload the last(i hope) update for mod. Im very sorry but after you download this - you should begin the new game T^T
tessens are shields - so the are almost useless)) like in real life
i dont know how to return to old things like "carry the loot" or scirmishers' re-randomised bows and firearms.

 

[Inanch-Bilge]

About Suguroku mod, is the new items historically correct ? I'm a little picky when I want to do historical roleplay

 

[Hasegawa_Taizou]

yes, if you mean some fantasy or nowadays items - there no one of them in suguroku. Just historical weapons or clothes

I mean auto-upgrade doesn't recognize that the submod's items are better than the ones the companions are currently using.

 

[Hasegawa_Taizou]

it doesnt recognise any of added items

Is this something that will be changed or something that should be ignored?

 

[Hasegawa_Taizou]

AND EVERYONE WHO HEARS me!!!
i want to make personal map_icon for izumo. Please if someone has some ideas send me images or your what you think in pm. I think about that for long time but still have not enough courage) I remember that in Izumo there were a lot of temples and that celebrations and festivals there were famous all over japan. But i have no idea how to show that in my map_icon. Please if somebody has ideas ill be glad to hear them)

you know - testing of Suguroku is still going on. Nobody knows for example - there was a mesh bug with chineese sword, i dont talk about arrows scale mistake. So my friend have already told me about that and ive added the fix to the mod. I mean there are some mistakes in Gekokujo itself - not even in Suguroku. And we fix them from time to time. If you notice something strange - please tell me about that. As i have already said - almost every update makes saves from previous versions broken(it wouldnt be wrong to say that every update is some kind of "another game"). Thats bad. But there is no other way - even if i changed the module files instead of txt ones - there would be the same - so it is one more thing that should be ignored.(as we in my country say - realise and excuse))))

I understand and this is only a minor problem. I can live with it. Speaking about "something strange," the Great Lord Date helmet doesn't load properly. It shows up as completely black. Even worse, it causes an error that minimizes the game. It hasn't caused any crashes yet, but it makes me afraid to talk to him while he's in the field.

wow thats something reallly new! never heard of that. I'll see whats the heck out there. suppose - its the save crash. just begin the new game
now i'm updating the file - watch it and we'll see. thats really strange because there is nothing similar in my game - ...
thank you very much for info

today i installed the mod myself if i were just the user - i learned i've not put some files to uploaded file(( and i haven't "black" Date's helm - just no his horns texture - but the reason is absence of one. Thats the shader mistake must be. But when i tried - there were no such mistakes. It can depend from the Warband version - i have 1.153. I know that warband and fire and sword have similar problems when import items with shaders that are not supported by another version. have no idea what's that

and you know - the mod has already become the collective work)

 

[ZeroNoID]

could you merge these with Melphiz Submod

 

[Hasegawa_Taizou]

could you merge these with Melphiz Submod

i can give no guarantees but i'll ask him about that. I suppose you've already learned they are incompatible(((
im afraid he'll refuse because my request will mean that i want him to integrate his mod into my one(i dont work in module files). That even sounds not very polite - and i've already asked him for many times to help me))) - thats why i dont want to test his generosity. I mean he has already done his submod for Gekokujo - will it be right to ask him to do the same for Suguroku? I want ask you first - can you work in module files? If yes - ill just ask his permission to include his mod in my one - after that i will be able to search for people who is experienced in moduling and use his mod files as i want.
