That won't work. The .esp changes where the game looks for the meshes to use. In order to use someone else meshes you need to rename them to what my meshes are named and put them in their folders.

Thanks, that's what I'm planning to do. I have one more (dumb) question. Do your folders by default contain the filepaths for 1stperson viewpoint meshes and did you change arrowprojectile.nif to arrowflight.nif, or are those seperate files?

well, you know, i'll just try and see what I can do I guess. Stuff like this makes me really want to learn how to mod and not just play with them.

I'm sticking with this mod for smithing. It may not match my preferences 100%, but it comes the closest and makes the most sense.

[Charlotte Henderson]

As for which styles of items blacksmiths should sell, I guess it would depend on whether you imagine the Blacksmith trading only weapons they themselves have crafted or whether they would also have a limited stock of items they had bought from travelling merchants / adventurers. A mild point for the latter would certainly be that all the blacksmiths will buy your arms and armour. In which case adding Breton, Ancient or Dunmeri items to something like BlacksmithSpecialLoot10 might make sense.

I could do that. Give a rare chance to sell a weapon of an unusual style.

I use the same meshes for 1st person and 3rd person meshes.

this replaces all weapons in the game? what have you done with dawnbreaker? lol, just wondering if it's renamed. If it isn't do I want to leave it in weapons->dawnbreaker or do I move the file to 300Artifacts?

also, shields will still be in the original folders even though their categorized as weapons?

is this skyrim mod compatible?

Dawnbreaker is one of the few weapons unchanged. Eventually I will retexture it though to bring it's quality in-line with the rest of my weapons.
Shields are unaffected.

Read the OP for my final word on compatibility.

Sweet, everything worked, even the arrowprojectile files. Everytime I go to the forge I giggle a bit and just scroll through the lists of all the stuff.
thanks for the answers Baratan. I did a reinstall recently and wanted to preserve a couple things I found, hopefully I did.
all i really have left to say is...my god, so many arrows. There's barely enough knees to go around.

Glad everything is working out for you.

The next version is going to be a little bit of clean-up. Weapons being introduced to leveled lists. Craftable Magic Weapons.

I'd suggest a filled soul gem be required for magical recipes (along with the arcane crafting perk).

What's the object ID for a filled soulgem?

Generic Enchanted items. What should they be named?

[Elizabeth Falvey]

I'd just pull 'em from a D&D rulebook: Flaming (weapontype), (weapontype) of Frost, etc.

I don't know if you want to rework how enchanted weapons work at all, but I'd make the charge cost zero, because I think the idea of attacking with magic weapons costing "points" is stupid and makes for very unfun gameplay. The only effect it has on me is to ensure that I never use enchanted weapons.

lol I just busted out laughing. Thanks for that.

What about banishing, turn undead and others?

Moonstone Altmeri Battle-axe of Animus is a bit of a mouthful.

Well, for magical weapons, I think it's less necessary to declare material and style as part of the item name. I'd just call it Battle-axe of Animus for soultrap, Consecrated Greatsword for turn undead, Warhammer of Severing for banishment, etc. Material and style would be apparent by the weapon's appearance.

[Jennifer May]

I'd also have to differentiate between the three to six different levels of enchantment the random weapons have. I could do something like "Steel Flameslayer +3" and just leave style out of the name. if I wanted to drawn my weapons' names from Morrowind.

Petty -> Lesser -> Common -> Greater -> Grand -> Masterwork

Not sure about the last one. Thought Legendary, but that's already used for Upgrades.

[Cat]

As in...
Petty Steel Flameslayer
Masterwork Dwemer shardmauler
Common Ebony Sparkblade
Sound good?

[joeK]

Looks good to me - alternatively, put the level in parentheses, like how Soul Gems look when filled, i.e.

Steel Flameslayer (Petty)
Dwemer Sparkcrusher (Masterwork)

[Jon O]

As in...
Petty Steel Flameslayer
Masterwork Dwemer shardmauler
Common Ebony Sparkblade
Sound good?

Yes but instead of Masterwork either just master or the term grandmaster or even adept sounds better to me.

[Emilie Joseph]

Instead of using the names of the soul-gems, since there's only 4, how about we use the names of the ranks of Enchanting? In parenthesis.
Iron Flameslayer (Journeyman)
Silver Sparkmauler (Adept)
Dwemer Stormsword (Master)
Ebony Shardaxe (Novice)
Moonstone Vipercleaver (Apprentice)
How does that look?

[gary lee]

I think that works very well.

[anna ley]

I think that works very well.

Now to program my Logitech G15 to do all of the repetitions.
