[Nicole M]

will this mod eventually encompass armor as well?

[SWagg KId]

That would be neato.

Ebony Dwemer Armor would be so rockin.

[Sara Lee]

will this mod eventually encompass armor as well?

I'm hoping Baratan will consider doing them sometime in the future, if not I'll have a look at doing it myself. I'm no Baratan, but I do know my way around Gimp more or less.

Still, that's all pretty far ahead, we'll see how things go once weapons are actually done.

No progress today I'm afraid, girlfriend came down with a flu so I've been looking after her. Had some time to look at the balancing of material/style and to discover that I need to do over from the start, but that's about it.

[Paul Rice]

Bros > GF > Modding > Breathing

I think that's the order.

[Emma Parkinson]

I'd actually be much more inclined to do the armour textures in a team environment where I would do the textures, someone else would put them on the meshes etc etc

Bros > GF > Modding > Breathing

I think that's the order.

I have no real modding skills. I'm happy to be as supportive as I can as a fan and mod user/tester. I think I did a pretty good job maintaining TESVAL on Nexus if you are looking for someone to help from that aspect. I did have lots and lots of help with that.

Well, lets get the weapons and everything else to 1.0 and then maybe we can work out a team arrangement for armour.

[Celestine Stardust]

I know people were asking after non-perk tree smithing and although I like the idea, I think for now we should probably stick to a perk tree for simplicities sake. Speaking of which, here's a draft one:
http://i418.photobucket.com/albums/pp267/TWmodshots/SmithingPerkTree.jpg

Apprentice Smithing = Steel, + Double improve for leathers/iron/etc.
Journeyman Smithing = Plate Armour, Scale Armour

Thoughts?

Edit:
Augh, the more I look at that the worse it is.

How about this instead:
http://i418.photobucket.com/albums/pp267/TWmodshots/SmithingPerkTree2.jpg

Same amount of perks to reach glass/ebony/daedric as vanilla.

I would swap Orc and Dwemer, otherwise seems good.

If I understand what you are getting at here.... your tree would permit someone to specialize in light or heavy if he or she chose, instead of having to choose all the perks to get to the highest level.

[Andy durkan]

It's pretty close to the original perk tree except that it removes advanced armors from the light armor branch and allows you to jump over to the other branch at any time. So for instance you could unlock Apprentice>Moonstone>Silver>Ebony>Daedric or Apprentice>Orichalcum>Dwemer>Ebony>Daedric.

Will probably swap Silver and Moonstone though I'm not sure about Dwemer/Orichalcum. Orcish may be higher up the tree than Dwemer in the native tree, but in game Dwarven armour is better, so arguably Dwemer is the more advanced/superior material. With the weapon stats I'm essentially balancing them fairly equally at the moment though.

Working on balancing at the moment and I think I've got a system that co-operates decently with Bethesda's animation system whilst sticking fairly close to the original max/min damages.

[IsAiah AkA figgy]

So it won't be that noticable if I use other weapon mods (like Wot3E and JaySuS) that adhere to vanilla standards when I use C300?

[Kira! :)))]

That makes sense wrt dwemer/orc. Didn't realize that they were out of order in vanilla.

[Louise Dennis]

Dwarven and orc are out of order for weapons only. Orcish armor is the stronger of the two. I always thought it was kind of weird. Orc weapons are just a bit stronger than steel, but the armor is above dwarven and plate both. For flavor it can work. Just say oricalcum doesn't hold an edge very well, but resists blades quite nicely. (Or some such)
But for smithing perks it becomes... wonky.

I don't know what to do with the order though. No matter which you get first you'll end up getting a weaker one second for either armor or weapons. I'd be temped to put orcish after dwarven since its stronger armor and also has another armor in between the two strength wise (plate).

I do like the the general idea of your perk trees. Especially that the advanced armors perk isn't tied specifically to light armor like it is in vanilla.

I'm not sure about what to say about moonstone and silver. Looking at your balance document link I'm thinking that silver is the more powerful of the two. Its slower, but has the same damage and has the bonus against undead. Which, according to the UESP, is a significant 20 damage per hit. (Is that adjustable, and did you adjust it?)
Have you considered combining silver in with another perk? Maybe the advanced armors (journeyman) perk since it doesn't already have a weapon type attached to it?

In the balance doc it says "+Damage to Elves?" for iron.
That's an interesting idea, but I don't know if it works with TES lore. Has iron had any properties like that in past games?
It would definitely give more reason to keep an iron weapon around. There's hardly a point to them in vanilla considering how fast steel shows up.

[Kirsty Collins]

Oh, sorry. That balance doc is crazily out of date, I had to rework everything because of how Bethesda set up the two handed weapon animations.

I am planning on making a new script for silver weapons that gives a % damage bonus rather than a flat amount. At low levels it's ridiculously overpowered with +20 points. As for moonstone, it does less damage than orichalcum/dwemer (though this varies with weapon type, it's about equal for blades, much weaker for blunt) but that's balanced out by a significant speed boost for the weapons and a decreased weight.

As for the iron, I just jotted that down when it came into my head late at night. I don't think there was a Damage bonus against elves in earlier games for iron, but I do remember it having a pretty decent bonus against 'fey' creatures like Spriggans, so I might put that in.

I suppose one way to deal with the tie between Orichalcum/Dwemer would be to put them on the same tier, especially seeing as they're essentially equal with the current balance (Tied for blades, Orichalcum makes slightly better axes, Dwemer metal makes slightly better blunt weapons). And if we do go through with making armour variants in the future then style would be separate from material, so orcish>dwarven armour wouldn't be a concern.

Work stuff today so I probably won't be able to get much done. So far I've got the new stats in for all iron and daedric weapons, though the speed values still need a little fine tuning.

[Timara White]

Take your time, good things come to those who wait.

[Cameron Wood]

Dwemer weapons and another book entry done. Sorry about the lack of progress, real life and all that junk.

[Lindsay Dunn]

Yay, I love all things Dwemer. Body readiness has decreased by 23%.

[Lilit Ager]

tiny request: could you make a modular version of C300? Possibility to download just the remade weapons in loot lists would be sweet.

[Mason Nevitt]

I'm not entirely sure what you're asking for, as that's more or less what C300 is, but no it's not possible to do modular versions. They are a lot of work and unless you design the mod from the ground up to work like that they're pretty much impossible to do without doing everything twice.

[Facebook me]

Holy ballsack, that is awesome. I will keep be following the progress of this mod and use it when I get Skyrim.
Good Job.

[Nuno Castro]

Hey everyone, I just finished working on a version of this mod that basically just adds the weapons from Crafting 300, without any changes to smithing perks or experience. I just did everything from the beginning using those glorious textures Baratan made. I wanted it to be compatible with other crafting mods, particularly the Complete Crafting Overhaul, but it should be fine with others as well, but there might be less recipe consistency. At the moment, I haven't added anything to leveled lists, and my weapon stats are vanilla and equal across styles. A dremora iron sword is exactly the same as a basic iron sword. I've been emailing Baratan, asking him what I should do with the mod, since all the textures are his, and he pointed me to this thread, which I wasn't aware of. So, what should I do with it? I could release it myself and just credit Baratan's textures, or we could incorporate it as a modular version of the current mod. I've never uploaded any mods before, so I don't really know what I'm doing.

Well, lets get the weapons and everything else to 1.0 and then maybe we can work out a team arrangement for armour.

I've played around in Nifskope a bit, I could probably help get textures onto armour meshes.

[Shelby Huffman]

Good job, well done. Amazing idea. Been downloading the 0.8.0 now for half an hour, only 12 minutes to go. Hopefully I manage to isntall this mod right... I've heard you can't fail in these things, but I'll show the world it's possible. (hopefully I won't, though).

[Kira! :)))]

Finally some free time!

Working on getting the last of the item stats done today. Then it's just a matter of getting the books in game and fixing up the recipe requirements.

I've played around in Nifskope a bit, I could probably help get textures onto armour meshes.

To make it 'compatible' with Complete Crafting Overhaul you'll have to go through the crafting recipes for each and every one of the new weapons and copy the conditions and required items. You're probably better off waiting till the mod is more or less done though. That's a lot of work for what essentially equates to an ingot more or less here and there, but for whatever reason people do seem to be pretty enamored with CCO.
