MOD IZ DEAD: A DIY Community Armor Project

Overview:
Okay nerds, in the spirit of festivus and to celebrate how the mod is, in fact, dead, I will be taking armor requests and doing my best to make it as baus and accurate as possible. Depending how lazy I get, I'm planning on doing at least two (probably one--motivation is hard to come by these days). Please include as many source/reference images as possible and follow the rules below (any entry that doesn't follow the rules will be ignored). If we can't get a devmy old friend to add it to the mod as a new armor (I don't care about stats/balance, devmy old friends will figure it out if it comes to that) then I'll replace whatever current armor in game of your choosing so that this can be seen instead. Also note that it doesn't have to be uber intricate plate or whatever (although I'm up for it), it just needs to be stylish and super cool.

Rules:
  • You must follow the post format in order to be considered (see below)
  • All armor types are valid, though if you post some super lame IP fantasy shit like Lord of the Rings or whatever it'll probably be ignored
  • Hard texture designs only/no heraldic parts because I cbf'd into learning how that shit works
  • Only one entry per poster (make it count!)
  • The entry with the most + votes and isn't retarded is the winner
  • Cutoff time is 12pm GMT-8 (or whatever PST is) -- any other entry afterward may be considered but at this point I can really only guarantee the first one
  • It will probably be finished sometime on Saturday/Sunday if not sooner

Entry Format
For your entry to be considered, you must post in the following format (just quote this post and delete all the other sections):

****************************************************
Proposed Armor Name:
example

Reference(s):

****************************************************

Additional Information:
Please note that I really only do textures but I can do some nifty hackjobs/remeshes if need be so we'll be limited by whatever base model is closest and whatever parts can be salvaged/hackjobbed on top of it (any modeler nerds out there who want to collab are welcome). If you know of an existing model that conceivably fits the design in terms of the how the model itself is shaped, feel free to also mention it in your entry, especially if it's a model that isn't currently in cRPG. I also haven't done one in like 6 months so bare with me.

Some of my stuff is included in the Clash of Kings Warband mod (based on Game of Thrones) which can be found on taleworlds/moddb/google/whatever. For example pics see here: #1 #2 #3 #4.

I would be pleased if this armor will be added. I won't be the only one who feels this way.

Jesus. These submissions are really weak guys. You should be ashamed of yourselves. Isn't "Chapel de Fer with bevor" just a bevor + visitors can't see pics , please register or login

Dont waste your time dude, people are lazy, they always want new things added to the mod without them doing nothing.

A month or some, I tried to convince people to pitch in a small amount of money to buy some good modeled armours/helmets/shields from good modeleres, most agreed but when the suggestion time came around, they all vanished into thin air  :lol:

Proposed Armor Name:
Armored Hose with Kneecops

Reference(s):
A version of the "Red Hose with Kneecops with more metal protection...
Like with more of the same metal as the kneecops part, protecting shins and or feet...?
(click to show/hide)

I would love to see a more armored, heavier version of red hose with kneecops because while they visually match perfectly to red brigandine over mail, there is a big difference in armor values. w/ mail gauntlets and everything unloomed it comes to 50 body armor vs 37 leg armor. No other footwear comes close to how well the red hose matches with red brigandine over mail, but I hate getting poked in the feet for high damage when my effective armor weight is around 20 :(

If you make a heavy armor version of the red hose with kneecops and it gets added into the game I'll give you a loompoint.  :wink:

plz

I think that could be made just by cutting up the already existing models and mashing them together. Just take off the bevor of the gothic plate with bevor and put it under the chapel de fer. It's good in theory....  :lol:
