Just to clarify:
This is for MS v1.35 - NOT for MS:C!

Just cuz everyone's doing reskins, and Crow seemed to want one:

(click image to enlarge)

It's very umm... Elven... Gold trimmed, gold handle, and gold glowing bowstring.

Biggest advantage is that the viewmodel features a transparent arrow - so the arrow won't block your view. (Really, shoulda done the same with the bow itself, but somehow, that arrow in my face has always bothered me.)

If you look VERY closely, you will see elven writing on the hilt:

(says, "In the darkness bind them." - I think.) :roll:

Ye Download: http://www.thothie.com/ms/elven_bow.rar

Unzip to Steam\SteamApps\urname\half-life\ms

If you need a RAR unzipper go here.

Note: This will affect your standard wooden longbow as well.

PS. Also note in first screen shot high-color health vial - I wanna make the colors more intense before I send that out, as it came out kinda dull (seeing as how people are actually using the one I put up).

Smart :D Was it a proper re-skin?

Or just a skin change?

I wouldn't even know the difference. ;)

I didn't recompile the model, if that's what yer at, I just used Jed's HL model viewer.

Love it! Btw where would you go about finding the Elven language so that you can use it in game development?

First thine need a Sindirin Dictionary, I suppose... Like this one. Then you need an elvish font... Like this one. Then you need to find some really nerdy young ladies you can impress with this knowledge... Like this one. ;)

Tolkein's Elvish is really some old dead French(?) language as I recall. No, I don't actually speak it... Though I know a girl who does... And I know another who speaks Klingon. I love my ex's. ;)

So it's not just me then... Also seems to be driving my subscribe thing crazy (gives me alert whenever there's new post here, but I guess it's having trouble logging in.)

Lord K, save the forums! ;)

Seems all my bloody friends are on myspace, but I've thus far managed to resist the trend, or more accurately, my account is 'cloaked'. Hobbypage covered it all IMO, however flamboyantly, and there are people on myspace I'd rather not wind up meeting again, even virtually. ;)

I have that same problem. Cept I do not even have a "cloaked" acount.


I think it has adware and spyware all over it anyway.
