Title: New textures for nodachi/katana/wakizashi. Please vote
Post by: Ujin on February 15, 2011, 01:25:03 am
Greetings everyone.

Our guys have decided to give it a try and change the current looks of nodachi/katana/wakizashi. If we get a green light from you , the items team will hopefully replace the old textures with the new ones.

 We would like to hear your opinions on this, please be our judges.


All credits go to Hotshot and Arked.

Here are some screenshots ( only nodachi on these pics, if you approve we will retexture katana and wakizashi too)  :

Looking Good :D. It seems a bit Bright in some of the pictures though.

I hope they get in :D

When you are done with the Katana and Wakizashi. Can you make me a Naginata :D

I like it, but....
it looks like the 2h model is a little off in those screens.  the bottom hand looks like it isnt even on the grip.  model error? or texture?
How is it in terms of actual length compared to the current one?  Im ok with it as long as all og the stats including length remain the same.  it actually looks a lot bigger than the current one.

I like the current one as well, however.
That helmet is pimp, though.....

and a Naginata would be a good addition to the game.  it could stand between the millitary scythe and long hafted blade somewhere in the stats.

Arked and Hotshot will answer the technical questions, the lenght and stats would be the same though.

P.S. the current textures look awefully clumsy in my (and not only my) opinion, that's why we're trying to change it. Just check the handguards on the current nodachi/katana for example.

Its the same model that is used by crpg. Only change we made was tsuba (handguard). Lenght is the same.
About the hand not holding the handle, its fault of weird animation Hotshot used when making screenshots. It will look normally in cRPG.

I like it, but could we get some screenshots with graphics turned up all the way? And preferably with the right animations?

Oh and I never realised Oda was dutch...There seem to be quite alot of us around.

Eh, you mean me? No , i'm not dutch. Hotshot and Craftybadger are =). Hotshot is the one making screenshots, we'll try to figure something out.

Anyways, more votes please !

Current nodachi texture is same for wakizashi and katana, its just scaled for all 3 weapons. It just looks ugly :(
Also the handguard texture is broken, look at it when its on your back and then when its in hand.

Looking good. But, there are two questions; are you planing this version of Nodachi to be separate from existing one, or fully replace it? And, if it's going to replace existing texture - why there is a Oda clan sigil on a scabbard?

1.)  Yes, because the cRPG item team told us that if we can find/make new textrues for katana/nodachi, they will replace it. So we gave it a try

2.) Why not ? It looks good in my opinion. It's a pretty common and recognizable sigil  and one of the most famous samurai clans in  history.

Maybe a separate ninja weapon (even if, arguably, only from the 80-90s movies ) ? We could try asking the IRC item team together  :) .

I'd love a ninja sword. It would be awesome. And I also fully support the original purpose of this thread. The weapons look good :)
Although ninja logo isn't a must ;)

No, it isn't. Katana is traditionally a samurai weapon. Ninjas used smaller weapons usually due the being assassins. The weapon in korgoth's post is seen as the "ninja sword" usually (not that there was any standard.)

1. Some Ninja were also promoted to use the katana.
2. It's called Nin-to.

Cant someone with nicer graphics take the screenshots? I dont really like em now because they look a bit unsharp, but that could be because of the graphics.

As far as i know that's a Tanto, not a "ninja sword". It's again another samurai weapon, one made to pierce. The katanas you know nowdays combine that sword's piercing abilities with another japanse curved sword (looks like a more curved katana) that was made for cutting only. 15th century or so a blacksmith made the katanas, a mix of those two earlier swords, that combined the best of both. Ninjas don't have specific weaponry as they weren't soldiers, they were spies and assassins. You could find them using anything you'd find in Japan/China on those earlier eras, which included samurai weaponry.

1. Tanto = Dagger (curved, around 30cm long)
2. You probably mean the "tachi", which is also known as a ceremony-sword and a cavalry-sword (was weared normally, like european would wear a katana, with the cutting edge downside, but just on horseback), this was longer than a katana (120-150cm) and even more curved.
3. There was really no special weaponry for the ninjas, until they called themselves ninjas, then they produced special weapons like the raven-feet, just as an example.

Ask more if you want to know, otherways you can read much 'bout in the internet, i can tell you some things that are true and not, if you want.

BTT:
I really hope they get into the patch, together with the armors, maybe they'll get done better in a time far away.

Rightfully corrected, the Tantos are are daggers. What i meant are Chokutõs (Jo-Kotou in the pic).

Anyhow, ended not writing about it, better texture for the japanese swords is a great idea, but i think the ones you got aren't the best. It's an improvement, even if small. Would love if you had better blade textures than that.
New japanese swords would be really nice too. And polearms, and bow. I vote #3.

EDIT: Tachi is "longsword". This term that can be used to describe any sword with a long (100+ cm) blade, though you got Great Sword for the big 2 handers.

The wave pattern on the blade is way too prominent, needs to be more subdued. And personally I prefer the native sheath.

It needs some anti aliasing but otherwise it looks sweet (please use better settings when taking screenshots :P you would get alot better votes)

nodachi will always be a way inferior weapon though unless they give it a decent stab attack.

Looks to grainy to me, maybe the photo or the in game look. Either way the katana and wakizashi are the way they should look  the nodachi is the only one that is to off sized look at museums weapons not cheep store ones for comparisons.  :?
