OSP Oriental 3D Art Update to Indo-Persian Armory

[dariel]

(EDIT: link updated)

Hi all, I've updated my offering of Indo-Persian weapons, shields and armor. You can find the new file here https://www.moddb.com/games/mount-blade-warband/addons/age-of-tigers-indo-persian-osp-pack

The pack now includes:

• 97 Indo-Persian armors (mail, mail and plate, padded, and lamellar)
• 160 Indo-Persian helmets (with a few turbans and Portuguese cabassets in the mix)
• 90 Indo-Persian shields
• tulwars and shamshirs
• khandas
• sosun pattas
• tabars
• bullovas (those crazy mustache-blade axes!)
• gadas and other maces
• zaghnals
• bhuj
• katars, khanjar, kard, chilanum daggers - used for court wear
• 7 Indo-Persian and Afghan muskets
• 3 adarga shields (for the Portuguese)
• 10 Renaissance style hats
• 5 Renaissance style doublets
• map icons for 2 styles of Indian city
• gazelle, chital deer and nilgai meshes

As much as possible I used the Indian names for the weapons and armor, and based most models/textures on photographs of historical items and museum replicas. However, I can't guarantee historical accuracy for all of them, particularly the South Indian stuff. For those, since pictorial references were really scant, I resorted to basing some models off statues and Indian movies

Wow! Thank you for your amazing work over the years! Not only models of less explored civilizations, but a lot of them, too.
EDIT: Also, it gladdens me that you used the MBRepository. I have a fondness for this site and for its relative clarity and efficiency in organizing mod content.

Waow! Thanks, great job

 

[Eärendil Ardamírë]

A nice updater ^^

 

[dariel]

Thanks, everyone!

 

[Redleg]

Great job! I have used some of your stuff in my mod, giving you credit of course.

 

[dariel]

Thanks!

Hello, I have tried to include some of your equipments in my mod but I encountered some issues :
- Helmets - they do not appear on the head of the character , but at his feet
- Mailed armors with the belt = some belts appear in plain white. It's not a big deal but i think this is not what is wanted
It's ok for others stuffs like most of the armors and weapons, only the helmets experience this issue.
I'm on Warband , v 1.174
Do you know this kind of issue and how to resolve it ?

By the way thank you for your content, I use your equipments (for now, essentially armors) for my asian troopers and the result is very good. Thanks a lot

- Helmets - they do not appear on the head of the character , but at his feet

Check if they are rigged or not (you can see at openBRF if you can play an animation or not, if yes, it's rigged). If it is rigged, set the flag itp_attach_armature

- Mailed armors with the belt = some belts appear in plain white. It's not a big deal but i think this is not what is wanted

Do you have a screenshot here of in-game and in OpenBRF?

 

[Douw]

It worked for the helmets, thank you ! In fact, the meshes were not rigged, and the "itp_attach_armature" was set in the item. I removed this flag and it's now OK.

For the armors here are the links :

Check if the material and texture entry of that belt are inside the same brf file as the belt mesh itself.

 

[Douw]

Material and Mesh are in the same brf file, but the texture is elsewhere. Maybe it's because of that ?

- Mailed armors with the belt = some belts appear in plain white. It's not a big deal but i think this is not what is wanted

The belts require the material/texture to be either in the same BRF file as the armor, or in a BRF file that is loaded first in module.ini. You should import into the BRF of the mail armors all the materials kamarbund_* and their textures, these are in the bfh_all_costumes.brf file.

If you're also using the costumes, though, you can just edit your module.ini file to load the bfh_all_costumes file before the mail armors.

 

[Douw]

OK thank you, indeed, that worked ! During my tests, I have tried to use older versions of your equipments so the meshes/resources are a bit messy now, maybe I have made the situation worse by myself and mistake. I will clean it and be sure that everything is in place.

MBRepository is dead, hopefully you have backups of the project whose updates after 2014 are considered lost.

 

[dariel]

Thanks, I do have updated backups, but they're not uploaded anywhere yet. Would you advise Nexus or ModDB?

Moddb is a little more user friendly. If you upload it to here, it'll be easy to find. Just set the category to weapon model or something like that.
