We had one of these, but it's long dead, so I shall begin anew.

I call this one the Gilded Leather Armor.

And then, to grab some attention, my Ice Mail:

You may also post concepts here of armor; FER made a weapon concept thread.

I love them (Mostly that vest :D) but if that ice armor makes you immune to ice, wouldn't that be kinda unbalance? :S Ice and Fire are the two top elements used in this mod, and I'm kinda annoyed with Phoenix, not only making you completely immune to fire but it also heals you :| That like making armor that heals you when struck with a sword.

I think thothie should avoid making more armor/equipment that immunes you to stuff.

magical armors must have low defense to compensate the awesome elemental absorption ability (I support the idea of not increasing phoenix armor's defense)

If ya have skins, send em up, but we've hit a snag with the armor that if we keep the current display work around, we seem to be limited to the number we can have (seems to be 8 per model), so don't expect me to add armors willy nilly, unless someone fixes the armor display bug proper.

I suppose we're still limitless on the helms so long as we keep them in that seperate model.

i think we should fix the bug first, other wise whats the point of adding new armors?

edit: honestly though... its the codes as fucked up as iv been reading... it may end up that who ever codes "MiB" or "Thothie" or "who ever" may just have to completely re-code it no?

Yeah, cuz that wouldn't take three+ years and be completely incompatible with your current characters or anything.

Well...I'm no coder, so if I think of a new armor, I'll put it up, and if you want it, just say "OY! I want this plzkthxbai." Also...I haven't thought of reskinning helms yet...Hrm... :twisted:

I've no idea why people repeatedly put up pictures of their work here and then never make any links to any usable product.

That would be good. Unfortunately nobody uses that thread of unfinished models

Yes and I redownloaded the UV Mapping program and I am trying to fix it... Might take a while. If you could get someone else to do that (Vomica, Gaz) it would go much quicker and look a whole lot better... But good luck with that. I have been trying since I released the models :?

Necropost, cause P doesn't respond to a PM...At any rate, I've been commissioned to take a crack at his armor boss for his map...He's going for a style that I can only describe as "Pathos-esque" ;)...Here is what I was able to polish up so far...
a-3.gif

Suggestions?
Note that I have only done the midsection insofar, the other parts are still needing a redux, after some UVmapping issues that I just found a workaround for. Which reminds me:
@P: Jed's HLMV lets you export the UVmap into a JPEG...Which is easy cause it will match the UVmap that's built into the file, and it's already sized.

You're reskinning this to make it Pathos-esque...? Will it be an entirely new monster or the same thing ("Armor of the Fallen") with a new skin?

Yea sorry I didnt reply to your PM. I have been hurrying trying to get this map done for the next patch. No J-M, it will be the same monster.

Sabre, I'm not a big fan of "fish-scale" armor :oops: . Anything Hard metal like.

Fair enough...Mind if I take the left side and invert the colors for the right side?
