Looking at what's going into this tournament thing, I've decided to make it a mini mod.
It will have 4 events:
Archery
Melee (1 on 1)
Javelin (on horse back)
Joust
Archery:
Archery is 4 rounds consisting of 3 arrows each. The Target is set at a varying distance and angle. The closer to the center you hit, the more the arrow is worth.
Got the target set up and the basic scoring in the round. Seems to be pretty good on hit detection at the ranges I want. Need to work the AI scoring mechanics. Got a nice zoom camera effect for after you shoot your arrow. It zooms on the target so you can see how your shot landed.
Melee: (Not Started Yet)
1 on 1 fight with dulled weapons and full armor. Will either go with a point system (each time someone is hit a point is scored against him) or the knock out system, or a combination.
Javelin: (Not Started Yet)
Charge at the target on horseback. Throw a spear between the marked area and hit the target for points. Will be hard, but that's how it goes.
Joust:
Jousting consists of 3 passes in which you try to unhorse your opponent. You have to time your thrust right to get the best hit, and you only get 1 thrust. Too early and you may be off balance on a counter hit. Attempt to swing to late, and you may be stunned and unable to strike back. 1 point is scored for a hit, a max score of 4 points is scored if you unhorse your opponent at any time.
At this time I have the scoring system and machanics of the joust working (though I'm still peeved that I can't get the proper animations to work), Need to finish the tier system.

Well, looking for a bit of feed back on the ideas. Some of it is based off of general concepts, movies, and the midevil times dinner show. The reason this will be a mini mod is that I have coded some of the items based on my own mod, as well as the scenes and scene props that I have created. Since I am building it up through a base Menu it will be the start point of the mod. When I release it, I will release it as module pieces, the brf, textures, and the scene file. Unless someone has a better idea.
