[Asset]Radar's Mod Stuff (New! Lurker Gloves!)

[Radar6590]

Hey guys.

I'm pretty new to modding 3D models in general, but playing around with the GMT I've managed to pull off a couple of nice re-textures. Here's one I'll share with the community because it's a fairly basic item, but maybe someone will find it useful.

Introducing the Longsword of Embers. Screens below.

It's a little bit stronger than the Longsword and deals fire damage. I also bothered to make a custom icon! It just doesn't feel the same without seeing the blade in your inventory or on hand.

Go easy on me, I'm still getting the hang of it, haha.

Nice . I think the colour of the blade is spot on in terms of magical heat but still looking realistic and not OTT.

Have only just seen your painted portraits too - they are awesome!

[Radar6590]

(btw John, thanks about the portraits. They're fun!)

I've made Chitin Gloves!

Custom Model with Custom icon both made by me. Textures are vanilla textures from the game. As a note they are technically "included" in the chitin set, defined in the items.lua

Here's a comparison of my gloves icon to the boots icon:

Edit: Whoops, forgot to specify the slot they go in! haha. 1 sec while I fix this.
Edit: Fixed.

Those are NICE! I really like this addition, I think I'm going to include them in Master Quest before final release!

[Neikun]

Weren't you making a Lurker glove as well, Radar?

[Radar6590]

@Komag: Thank you Komag. I'd be honored to have my gloves in the Master Quest

@Neikun: I can certainly try.

I was originally going to base them off of the leather gloves and such but I'm kind of considering making a model from scratch for the reason that it will be hard to distinguish a brown pile of rags on the floor from a blackish-brown one. The rest of the Lurker set certainly has more of a unique design than that and I would want to serve the community justice by fleshing out the gloves to match. I will have to try to think of some cool ninja glove designs. As I become more familiar with blender, I can import some of my drawings as a basis for more complex models. For example, I can texture a flat square with an image and match the model to its form. So maybe I'll try that soon. Or maybe I'll just "freehand" it.

In the case of the chitin armor, AH already "added chitin" to leather items so it was sort of a no-brainer to complete the set in this way.

[Komag]

If you have them done soon I'll also add them to Master Quest, would be nice to have more "completed" sets like that which are truly in the spirit of the original game without being too weird and new

[Merethif]

Just a tiny suggestion for Lurker Gloves. It would suit well (at least IMO) if they were fingerless gloves. Just like Lurker Vest is sleeveless.

[Radar6590]

Ok. Ask and ye shall recieve.

So basically because Komag asked for it for the Master Quest. I figured I'd go ahead and challenge myself to make it quickly. However I have to say it wouldn't have happened without Skuggs and Diarmund's wise counsel for Blender.

Again, custom model custom icon made by me.

awesome, these will make a nice reward for a certain spot I have in mind!

BTW, I set the chitin gloves to weigh 1.5 since the valor gauntlets are 2.5 and all the other chitin stuff is around just over half the other valor stuff.
