Title: Víkingr Armor
Post by: Dionysus on July 24, 2015, 12:59:53 am
Shameless repost I made a little more than a year ago. I've been really happy with the work the devs have done to add and update the armors of cRPG. I STRONGLY suggest taking another look at the armors in Víkingr. They are all very well textured and should be compatible with cRPG since Víkingr runs on WSE (I am computer illiterate, so I might be very wrong about that).

Here are some screens I captured of my favorite armors from the mod.

A few more in my album on imgur for the curious. (http://imgur.com/a/EBwU9#XBDyiZD)

And if you're wondering these armors are indeed open-source, the answer is a resounding eh, not so much (http://forum.melee.org/suggestions-corner/open-source-vikingr-armor!/msg1161703/#msg1161703)...

Looks like good stuff. I know there are a lot more armor mods out there, are you guys looking to add to the cRPG collection?

Wait a second, how come these armours wern't in the patch guys? They are seriously nice! Are there any active item devs around? because i'd like to ask how we can properly suggest and implement new armour like these.

Thanks!

^ I didn't even have to blow this guy to get him to comment and +1.

I'm hoping we can get this bad boy (http://c-rpg.net/img/items/large/itm_norman_helmet.png) replaced with one of these new helmets.

Also the mail on this (http://c-rpg.net/img/items/large/itm_plainhelm.png) could really use some updating.

But I won't be disappointed if you guys do your own thing.

A nice collation of which items specifically and suggested stats would speed things along.
This goes for all item suggestions tbh.

Not to say they won't be added without those things, just makes it easier to add.

While it's not impossible that the cRPG developers can get permission to use these items, they are not open source. They were made by Moeckerkalfie for the more recent patches of Víkingr - years after Rath0s stopped working on the mod.

That said, Víkingr is not being developed further and all it would take is to ask Moeckerkalfie himself.

My apologies! This (http://forum.melee.org/suggestions-corner/add-this-for-nordmens!/msg239057/#msg239057) was the comment I was referring to, but I didn't realize most of the armors were developed after Rath0s stepped down. I'll contact Moeckerkalfie as soon as possible, and give you his response (if ever it comes) here. Sorry again, folks!

If you would like, I would love to send you or Dupre a private message of my suggestions for adding some of these textures. Otherwise I can post them here to keep an open discussion with the community. This all, of course, depending on whether permission is granted.

The more diverse and realistic gear we can get in the game the better!

Just an update on nothing. The aforementioned developer of Víkingr who made all this wonderful armor, Moeckerkalfie, went off the grid for unknown reasons, and I mean OFF THE GRID. He deleted his TaleWorlds profile, YouTube account, everything. I tried to contact him over ModDB, but it's been a good few months and still no answer. It would be a damn shame if I never got to wear a good-looking nasal helm for my Norse characters!

PS Sorry James, I'm not sucking your dick because you posted here too.

Without reading the thread; Mega.nz is one of the more reliable ones.

These armors are nice, would be even better if we added a 400 ranged 4 slot pike with them!

Thanks for the support folks, we got permission from the former Víkingr developer to add the armors he worked on, so hopefully we'll be seeing some cool new Norse/Anglo-Saxon armors in cRPG soon.   :wink:

I'll be closing this thread and opening up a new one for some other armors. You can visit that thread by following this (http://forum.melee.org/suggestions-corner/viking-conquest-%28brytenwalda-dlc%29-armor/) link.
