Title: New bow textures
Post by: Gisbert_of_Thuringia on January 20, 2012, 12:00:41 am
Is there any chance to get the old bow and quiver textures back?

The new ones are totally disgusting....

The bow looks like a child's bow it bought on a medieval market or something and the quivers..well, they are too long, too thin and too full. With such a tight amount of arrows you would never be able to take even one out without dropping all others to the ground :/


How can I get the old models back?

" military archers typically carried their arrows in a canvas bag, which they tied around the waist or back. The bag could usually be tied at the top to protect the fletchings. During the battle, it seems that it was common to stick your arrows in the ground by your feet, rather than keep them in a bag/quiver. This had the dual effect of making the arrows easily accessible, and of making the points muddy"

I would love to do away with the quiver :P Think about it logically. In a quiver the fletchings would get crushed and the arrows would not fly true (reason to nerf accuracy!) In a linen bag with supports this does not happen. In a quiver they get wet. A bag has a top :D And last but not least. If your ranks are broken and you run with a quiver most of your arrows would fall out :D in a bag this doesnt happen.

Remove the quiver! make archers carry lil bags and give them the ability to sink arrows into the ground! (gives more damage but you cant take them out to put them back into your bag) this would be epic <3


PS. Yes the new textures look fugly :D

I don't know what you guys are talking about.
The bows look like real composite bows now not some hunk of wood.
The quivers I don't like, they are too small for quivers used in war.
They are more tournament style quivers

Last time they were just a bit too shiny for bows that have been used even for more than one generation^^  It always looked like a new bow, but at least it looked like a bow.
Now it looks like a child's toy made of plastic and rubber :/


And as many mentioned: It really has something in common with a banana...

Ps: I haven't checked the other bow textures yet, I'm talking about the longbow. Maybe the others are fine, but as I use the longbow I want it to look good

I want to say Socrates has a pack that has the old textures out.

I am mostly refering to the bows which are supposed to be composite recurve bows
Horn bow, Tatar bow, Rus bow.
If you have ever shot or seen a real one you will know that these look just like the real ones.

How can I get the old models back?

Read this (Has a  guide on how to revert it back to the old bow's textures:

http://forum.c-rpg.net/index.php/topic,19588.75.html

I guess the reason the bow's textures got changed it is because it has to do with the nerf, Toy bow = lower damage.

I just gave instructions how to get the flying_missile(the flying "line") back... instead of flying arrows.

You cant revert the new bows to the old ones, because they are removed from cRPG.

But I could add the the old models into the next version of my Range-Overhaul-Mod.
We will see.

sry, but native tetures of bow and arrows are still better. These look like Dwarven bows ported off of skyrim

Yea but only the long bow should become the Banana bow so why all other bow become it too? Except the Rus bow

New bow textures look good imo. Would be nice if they looked a little more "used" but otherwise they're great.

And your quivers you had in the last version. They looked much better in my opinion that what we have now

I must disagree with Gisbert. I find it a bit like Brown is real.

yeah, i have seen a lot of them and shot some myslef, and they look like the real ones, and btw gisbert, the shinyness of all the bows that are made can be totally real, becasue some varnishing will make em shiny as hell. so the shinyness is not over the top or something at all.

Never noticed^^

I'm German so when it comes to Brown I start thinking of SA times :D

Btw, I don't care whether it can be shiny or not. The last bow textures were also a bit shiny, but not as much as now and especially these black ending I don't like.

This thread is not about discussion how much everyone appreciates the new textures or not, I just wanted to know how to change it back.
