Is there a way to add 14~15th century-ish helms?

[RafaelCruz]

Hi everyone! I'm not feelling entitled or anything as I just found this mod (and really loved it), but there's something that is bothering me: I can't seem to find any low-Middle Age helms (armets, bascinets, and things alike) on the mod, BUT there is a full suit of plate mail, brigantines, and other things of the same time.

Am I just not happening to find the helms or really there's none?

If not how can I import helms from another mod?

There aren't that many OSPs with late 15th century helmets...that is the problem. Trust me, I was searching, but didn't find any...I could make some if folks would like me to since I broke my finger and thus created a nice little holiday and have not much to do...

Actually, there are quite a few. Even from the packs that are partially implemented in Silverstag, such as Narf's plate armour pack, Narf's men-at-arms pack, and another one of Narf's pack that adds 14~ century like armors.

I found it disappointing that the Milanese plate is implemented however none of the salets aren't. I kept telling myself that that is only a design choice, and the mod is more focused on 12/13th century.

Those chapel-de-fers are 14th, perhaps early 15th, but as you said, the lack of sallets is what could be improved...I've been searching but found none, I know that there were some in Floris, but I guess they weren't from OSP...

They were OSP in Floris as we didn't build any items there.  I'll look into adding a sallet to the list.  Generally we have tried to stick to the time frame, but there wasn't any conscious omission of that helmet that I am aware of.

Well, I'm glad I could be of some help by starting the conversation 

I think that, for refference, this image is quite useful:

As far as I've searched (which is quite a lot, as I'm trying to make armor at home and've been searching designs for 2 years), this char is quite accurate with, maybe, some designs happening even early.

That's a great chart for straightening out the time periods a little.  Thanks.

Yea about that...lol

I kinda left those particular helmets out because of time frame I guess.  They can easily be added back if people want them, I think they were Dejawolf's I believe?  Correct me if I'm wrong?

If I remember correctly I still have them tucked away somewhere on my pc because they are not available anymore last I had seen.

It would be very nice.

Actually the full harness already existing into the armours data base would be worn with at least a late bassinet (the two last), considering the time period. And most likely sallets (salades) and frog-mouthed helm (the ones between 1400-1500 period), some armets would be worn too. Anyway it would not break the time frame if this kind of full harness is used into the mod. Even the classic harness could be worn with early bassinets. Of course there is no need to use them over all troops, only some elites ones like top tier knights or Lords (Swadian & Rhodoks most likely).
