Low weight Heraldric items

[Shaksie]

I believe more Heraldric body armors should be added; specifically those of low weight.

Do the models and textures first, then ask for adding them.

There is a mod called Mercenaries. They have light armors that are heraldic. Like Padded Jack. and Gambesons.

Someone posted pics of heraldic cloth and leather armor a few weeks ago. Not many ppl liked them tho because they had bad textures.

Heraldic mail is not heavy

Heraldic mail is not heavy

does it involve some form of metal? yes, yes it does. Heavy armour imo.
Real men fight in cloth.

No need for models, just textures and a bit of messing with other files to get the game to load the heraldry properly. This takes effort, however (though admittedly not a whole lot), and with the dev's tendency to completely ignore 99% of the threads in this forum, it would likely go to waste. Zagibu actually DID make some of these, but they weren't added. Honestly they could have used a little work, but 5 minutes on photoshop and they would have been fine.

Sadly, devs said no and people bitched and complained over nothing.

What about leather? Leather is so much more sexy than cloth.

Sure, don't need models, just textures. There is only one BUT - no one created good textures. Honestly they could have used a LOT of work, total re-work would be even better ;) They suck, so thats why they wasn't added.

No mail armors are medium to medium/heavy armors.  They are certainly not heavy armor.

High 30's and low 40's for body armor isn't heavy to me.  Not until you get to the high 40s or low 50s. 

High 30's = higher tier of medium, low 40's = right in between medium and heavy.

As melee you wouldn't (or shouldn't) be using secondary mode of pierce on most weapons (vs cut) until that person starts getting into the transitional type of armors (high 40 body armor).  Really not until they get into the 50 armor range.

Not all that much. Messing with heraldry once the location of center has been set is as simple as painting with a single channel over where you want it to show up. So even a "total re-work" is pretty easy. His textures already had the front painted on, with a bit more of the heraldry map on it they would have looked fine. The only real problem I saw with them was they only covered a small part of the mesh and looked incomplete.

this has been suggested a bunch.  Probably because its a popular and good idea.
