Most of its armor sets are just retextures of vanilla assets, so if you really wanted to you could probably make a decent number of revolutionary war colored outfits The colonial duster, farmhand clothes, pastor's vestments, minuteman general, and minuteman outfit would all work as pretty good bases, I think.

Somebody created a pretty decent generic looking Redcoat uniform now as a mod too. Sadly I don't have the talent but somebody who can with patience and skill could do some pretty creative stuff asset mixing and retexturing. The General light armor outfit is a good example of what they could have done but I suspect they left the Minutemen last in the development cycle.

Doing palette swaps isnt too hard, assuming you have the tools and the patience to do it. It mostly consists of color overlays.

 Here's a Colonial Duster palette swap. It's a little messy, and the colors aren't quite right (hard to judge from photoshop). I'm trying to go for the look of these guys:  e: Better version:  Now I'm completely willing to admit that I don't know anything about the Continental Army's uniforms, or what the Massachusetts militias wore, so if this isn't correct let me know. Now that I've got the texture set up it's not difficult to change the colors. turn off the TV fucked around with this message at 23:14 on Mar 23, 2017 |

It certainly is a good start, the pantaloon style breeches could easily be adapted from the Longjon style outfit and you've got plenty of choice with the boots. Hell with a bit of patience both Preston and the outfit Hancock wears can be good templates, along with that mod that adds the actual uniform.

Actually making changes to models is way outside of my skill set, so everything I do is going to just be palette swaps. I'm also not gonna lie, I don't really like the idea of the entire faction wearing period accurate outfits. By the time Fallout 4 takes place the Minutemen have been around for at least 100 years. By that point they would probably be well past many or any usable period outfits.

There's a Plasma flintlock/revolver on the workshop which looks pretty nifty. http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/21922/ SeanBeansShako posted:Well, of course they'd have to improvised now with a bit of imagination. Yeah, the unfortunate thing is that there are clearly pieces of different outfits that look more in line with the Continental aesthetic. If I knew absolutely anything about 3D modeling I'd give it a shot, but unless it's as simple as a copy/paste job I'm way out if my league in that department.

I'm about to start a new playthrough and I'm planning on using http://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/12050/ which does a fair amount of what you're suggesting, but also makes power armor pieces really rare- think Daedric armor in Morrowind rare, in the case of X-01.

Has anyone found a mod to fix the bug where if you give a companion a charging weapon like the Tesla or Gauss that they will forever make the charging sound even once you remove the weapon from them? I've tried all the console fuckery I can think of, all the equipping and unequipping, recycle actor, etc., but they still constantly charge and static and it is driving me mad. The only mod 'fix' i found was one that just deleted the charging sound, but then you won't hear it yourself.

Here are some more animals with reworked normals. And an updated version of the ghoul.      Anyone here have experience with setting up Photoshop to automatically run filters and stuff? I'd like to do the same thing to the environmental and architectural textures as I'm doing to the creatures, but there are kind of thousands of those things.

I can't tell much of a difference with the animals, but the ghouls look great, they have that certain hard to describe look about them where they look messed up and off from a distance but you want to take a closer look to see the details of how they are messed up, like a face that looks weird from a distance but upclose it's a squirming mass of maggots in the shape of a face, that sort of thing. I'm sure there is a word for it or a name for the style but I'm drawing a blank.

I actually watched a vid when a guy was using the Full Dialogue mod and I realized that it's bad not because the mod itself sucks but because the dialogue system is very shallow. Sometimes you get four different options but turns out you're saying the same thing with 3 of them. With the original system, that's not obvious but with the mod it will be pretty awkward. That's not to defend the original dialogue system at all, just saying that it probably wouldn't have improved the game for me even if I used it. I just accepted it as a superfluous system that's an artifact from the past games where developers actually used it for something. The guy doing the analysis made a good point that I found myself wholly agreeing with – Bethesda should just focus on making their games the best explore/loot/fight games and remove anything that's hampering it. VVV not like it makes ANY difference

     I added subsurface scattering to the Mirelurk King fins. Now they're all glowy under very specific circumstances. I also added some normal map information for the Bloodbug's eyes. It doesn't quite work with the model, but it's better than them being completely blank. Deathclaws have gotten a slight touch up as well, I added the Mutant Hound's skin texture's normals to their scales, giving them some more definition.

Okay, I think I'll be able to start uploading this texture pack tomorrow (provided my internet connection is working well enough). All I have left at the moment are super mutants and deathclaw variations, and I may make some edits to the mutant hound, feral ghoul and bloodbug. But, here's what I have:                 I've made a number of modifications to the patterns of different normals, largely those that did not have any sort of skin texture applied to them. I used the patterns applied to ghouls/super mutants skin, the scale like pattern of mutant hounds, and what I'd best describe as wrinkles from the Mirelurks. Generally, if a normal did not have a pattern applied to them I went ahead and added one or two in order to give them a bit more texture. Almost every normal ended up having some kind of pattern applied to them. I've also applied subsurface scattering to nearly every material used in the creatures. This is especially visible on Super Mutants and the fins of Mirelurk Kings. I've also assigned proper texture files for Super Mutant heads and facial features as part of my effort to get their new normals and material edits working. After I'm done with the vanilla game I'll move onto Far Harbor, Nuka World, and then start some passes on clothing, armor, and eventually environmental textures. I'm using a different compression format than Bethesda, which means that all of the normals I'm editing are going to be half their original size, so I think that I'm going to go ahead and keep nearly all of them. turn off the TV fucked around with this message at 02:48 on Mar 29, 2017 |
