[eWIP][REL] A little addition to you customization

from Elemental Forums

Im currently working on a few things, one of those things is this little mod.

It basically adds different combinations of the armlets that are in the game and more will likely follow.

At the moment I have 23+ combinations, they still need work: values, description and such.

I think I will work on greaves after this one is done.

Just wanted to let you know ^^

 

If you have a request, feel free to ask for it!

 

Three of the combinations:

////////INTRODUCTION////////

Inspired by Barranoid and wraithstalke`s mods I decided to throw some things together myself, so people would have additional parts to choose from.
Thats it pretty much :-)

////////DESCRIPTION////////

This mod currently adds, 29 different combinations of armor parts and more will come. Currently they are just enabled for SOV creation, but there WILL be altered versions for Unit creation and they will be available for ALL races.
The stats however are made up on the fly, so they aren´t fully balanced yet. I will change that during the course of this project.

I started working on greaves, but only one version really made it into this release, since I wasn´t satisfied with the results, sorry :-(

That being said Im still working on a few things and they will be released during the next couple of days, IF you have any suggestions drop me a line ;)

////////INSTALLATION////////

1. Unzip the archive wherever it pleases you and copy the GFX folder into the Elemental Folder. Dont worry nothing will be replaced.

2. Place the FOX_Additional_Armorparts.xml in your "C:\Users\USER\Documents\My Games\Elemental\Items" directory( differs depending on Windows Version).


////////SUPPORT////////

If you have problems, Ill try my best to help you out ^^
and of course I would appreciate some feedback regarding the stat-changes, since I just threw them in there, without really balancing them.

Looks AWESOME with single-arm gladiator style stuff :P
But excuse my ignorance, what exactly does this mod do, are these arm things in the game, or entirely new models? :O (i havent seen that kinda full-arm stuff before but i never did research everything in this game)

edit: you can also just place the entire Gfx folder inside the Mods folder, for easy organization :)

Well this mod basically takes models that are existent and reorganizes them. Since we cant do models yet -.-" I had to work with what I had. Those parts were essentially all part of other armor models inside the game. ^^ For example the silver armor, or the Banshee armor, wich  wasn´t implemented for release, or so I heard ^^".

 

I did some new versions with basic chest pieces and greaves, but there are only so many models that either fit together OR do look good, sorry SD, so even though one has more variety it is still more of the same, just different tastes.

 

Next version propably will be up this evening or tomorrow.

 

Oh and thanks for the hint on the GFX folder ^^
