[HELP] Ask Before I Try

Post » Fri Nov 16, 2012 11:22 pm

So first off, I am brand new to the Creation Kit and I have an idea that I would like to build onto the game but I have not figured out where the limits are and how to really build my idea into the game. Now that I've gotten that across, here's my idea and please let me know how possible this is.

Developing a more custom way of building weapons by building a list of blade, handle, and materials for the player to choose from. They would then smith the blade type with the material they've chosen and then smith a handle type with the material they've chosen, from there they would put the two together and that would be their weapon. This would allow the player to make a sword that fits them more and their character more by being able to see how each type affects the speed, damage, and defense of the weapon they wish to make. The material would be a variable by defining each material by weight and density, the weight controls the amount of speed you can get and the density would be your damage. I would also like to build this for armor as well. Now I understand that this would also work better with a revamp of the skill tree, but to my knowledge that cant be done, so instead I would try to make it that each one you unlock, unlocks a list of blades and grips that you get that would represent that race/style.

so the ending question is whether or not that's feasible with the Creation Kit. I know you can build weapons, adjust stats, and put it on the forge list, but can I disassemble the forge list and rebuild it the way I want it? And if that's possible, can I generate a custom enchantment and spell builder. I wanted to generate a "Fullmetal" way of doing the enchantment and spell creation to give the player a more mathematical and thinking necessary form of generating them, plus develops more reason to read to develop a better combination, but that's a separate mod that I have thought about. First, just let me know if the weapons and armor customization mod is possible.
