More lethality!

[RR_Raptor65]

I made this little item mod with the editor that makes the weapons 2x more lethal, I wanted something that focused more on the brutality of the battlefield, so:
More Damage
More Speed

The Horses are also faster, more maneuverable and do more charge damage by 6 points each. You do have to hit just right to do more than 0 damage, but its lots of fun.

Heres a short video I took real quick of some Pirates vs Infantry (Was either that or go get run over by 60+ Darkies).

And the mod file itself, extract it right to your M&B folder and remember to back up the item_kinds1.txt in the Native folder in case you decide you don't like it.

Incase your wondering from the video, yes, I have a sound mod and texture mod in there too, the sounds are from HL2, and the textures from a Morrowind mod.

Oh, forgot to mention, this is for 0.703

looks fun, does it wokr with mag 7?

 

[RR_Raptor65]

This one won't, Mag_7 uses new items so I'd have to go through and make a seperate one just for Mag_7, this one should work, but all I did was go in and swing the starter sword around, it includes the new Mag_7 items/horses (Sped up and the damage increased):

how did you get it in first person? is that part of the mod?

 

[GhostThaxian]

Alright.
It looks good, i'm seeing some massive numbers in damage (Weeee)
But one thing: What happens when you speed up weapons, is that they become "too fast" for it to register a hit that actually hurts, you'll want to slow em down a bit. This is especially true for higher level characters who have alot of agility and strenght. I now whip a great rune blade around like it's a pool noodle, which means if you don't know how to handel it, you'll only constantly be doing around 4-20 damage instead of the numbers you intended.

Otherwise it looks good.

 

[RR_Raptor65]

Jockey: No, First Person is a stock feature, you can goto the Options->Controls and 4th key from the bottom should say "Toggle First Person View".

GhostThaxian: Yeah, sadly, but I'm aware of that, I plan on going back and taking off a 3rd of the current speed, should bring em down to more reasonable settings, the most reliable speed seems to be around 160-180 as of .632, the swings 'looked' better in .632 at these settings, but the new swing animations look too fast now that I go back and really look at em. I'll probably tackle them tomarrow morning.

 

[GhostThaxian]

Good good, just a heads up.

Nice work, weapon speed's a lil TOO high at some times though

 

[RR_Raptor65]

Got it done early, enjoy:

What did you change ?

 

[RR_Raptor65]

Just the speeds, they are all under 170 now, fast enough to be deadly and look good, but not too fast that they miss 70% of the time, took alot less time to redo them all than I thought it would. I've only had a few 0 hits, mostly due to both me and the enemy backpedeling away from eachother, or a point blank hit. Beware... cavalry charges are DEADLY now... its the rider you don't see that kills ya. Oh, Jousting and Great Lance speeds have been left untouched, I figured it'd be better that way because of the mass of those things. I didn't update the non-Mag7 file though, so its still too fast.

 

[Raz]

Sweett.. thanks

 

[zwaps]

could you... maybe, drop me an email at einsdrei -at- gmail.com ; and maybe, just maybe give me a hint how I could get those sounds and textures, if you know what I mean

 

[Raz]

what are you talking about?

 

[RR_Raptor65]

Sure thing, it'll be a fairly large file though, I edited every texture in some way, and most of the sounds.
