Texture Requests

[TheOnlySilverClaw]

I thought it would make sense to keep track of what textures we could use, in order of importance: emphasized = with tool materials (wood, stone, iron, gold, diamond)

Javelin Musket Knife Musket with Bajonet (Knife) Blunderbuss Blowgun + (different?) Darts

Looks cool! It'd be very cool, if you could provide those in copper, tin and silver, too :D (I am working on the OreDictionary-Things right now ^^)

[TheOnlySilverClaw]

Nananana, let him handle the list. Suncore can do the material stuff. :P

[ThexXTURBOXx]

Ok, then forget my comment :P

[Sunconure11]

I'll work on tin and silver tomorrow. I just managed to get my sleep on track, and there are a few other things I need to work on.

[Squeekblach]

And that should be everything on this list.

[TheOnlySilverClaw]

I did not really recognize the Javelin (looks more like a shovel on first site o.O ), but the rest look great. Thanks you!

[Squeekblach]

Yeah I can see that... I tried to base this one more off of Olympic javelins. Tell me what you think.

[TheOnlySilverClaw]

First of all, I think it does not make sense to keep the Javelin at 16 Pixels, while all other pole weapons are 32. 16 Pixel just does not look good for items longer than a sword.

Besides, MAYBE we could go into the Roman direction (or maybe make that a stronger version?) https://duckduckgo.com/?t=lm&q=pilum&iax=1&ia=images

If we stay 'primitive', maybe make the tip look more like a flint, since that was in the crafting recipe, maybe just a little thinner.

[Squeekblach]

Okay, I made the tip look like flint and it's 32x32 now. One looks the most refined and three looks the most primitive. Take your pick.

[TheOnlySilverClaw]

Thanks. It is too much to ask for a grip, once we decided on one?^^

[Squeekblach]

Not at all, I enjoy doing this. What kind of grip? Like the wrap around the handle of the battleaxe? Or something else?

[TheOnlySilverClaw]

Yeah, something like that. I'm trying to recall what the javelins in our sports classes looked like...I think it's more or less in the middle of the shaft.

But..hmyeah...I guess I'll try what the look like ingame and then decide...I mean, if you're using layers it might not be much work to do the grip for all three versions, but I do not want to give you unnecessary work.^^

[Squeekblach]

I googled modern javelins, yes it is in the middle of the shaft. Also, how long do you think it takes to make textures? xD... It doesn't really take that long for me... I made all the gun textures in like an hour with frequent breaks to check on things.

[Squeekblach]

Done.

[TheOnlySilverClaw]

Well, I still do not want anyone to waste time on things we throw away, which will be one out of thhose three textures.^^

Anyway...I guess we did not have a final Katana version so far?

[Squeekblach]

Uuurhg... I don't even know with the Katana anymore... Honestly, it would probably be better if we just used a 16x16 one... It's impossible to make a good Katana curve with 32x32...

Here, I drew up a 16x16 one for example purposes... I can change it to your liking.

[TheOnlySilverClaw]

Well, I still liked most of those better than this not-katana-formed 16*16 thing^^ But I know your struggle...hmmm...I'll go through what you've sent me so far and see what looks the least bad ingame.^^

[ThexXTURBOXx]

74 Could you help us? ^^

[ThexXTURBOXx]

Could you try to do a Katana-Texture again? I coded them and I don't wanna steal Balkon's Textures for them...

[ThexXTURBOXx]

Ok. Silvercatcher just sent me the other Katana-textures: http://imgur.com/a/XqJN4 If you can: I would like to have the second texture, but not so bent. Could you manage to do this?

[Squeekblach]

Like that?

[ThexXTURBOXx]

Yeah, looks nice! Could you do the Wood, Stone etc. textures of it?

[Squeekblach]

That should be all of them. I was wondering if there should be a brass variant of the Blunderbuss considering that actual Blunderbuss barrels were made out of either steel or brass.

[ThexXTURBOXx]

Thank you! A brass variant of blunderbuss is a good idea. But I think, that we should add this in the "Integration update", because steel and brass are features of other mods.

[Squeekblach]

That's exactly what I meant by it. :P

[TheOnlySilverClaw]

Can we get a normal crossbow and a really big one? I have things to break. ;) I mean, I can do the scaling...it should just look heavy.

[Squeekblach]

Tell me what you think.

[Squeekblach]

What sabre texture is that in the latest version?

[TheOnlySilverClaw]

About the crossbows: looks good, but I realize I have to find out how to switch between textures when loading.

And whatever is in this folder: https://github.com/TheOnlySilverClaw/Reforged/tree/master/resources/assets/reforged/textures/items is currently in use. I think that was made by badaspig?

[ThexXTURBOXx]

Hi again ^^ I would have a new texture request: I would need a Keris (It would be cool, if its texture is based on this one). P.S.: There is no need to hurry. I just need it until the 0.7-preversions release.

[Squeekblach]

Sounds good! This one looks like it's made out of Damascus steel. Would it need to be in all the different materials?

[ThexXTURBOXx]

Hmmm... I think it would be enough to have one out of - I think - Iron? But it would be cool, if it is a little bit darker iron (Good to know, that the one in the picture is made out of Damascus Steel: The Integration Update is getting bigger and bigger ^^). I forgot: I would need a simple texture for the "Gold-Rod" (A stick crafted out of 2 Gold ingots, used to craft the Keris). Thank you! ^^

[Squeekblach]

Should I make the handle gold colored?

[ThexXTURBOXx]

According to the crafting recipe: Yeah, would be a good thought ^^ I would have forget it :D

[Squeekblach]

I made a few test versions cause making curves like that aren't the easiest things, tell me what you think and what I should improve on.

[TheOnlySilverClaw]

Errr...I was thinking of making it golden, since that's the most enchantable material in Minecraft. And yes, a good crafting recipe might be tricky to find but I'm not sure if making an extra item for that is the best solution.

[ThexXTURBOXx]

@TheOnlySilverClaw But if it's all golden, the crafting recipe (which I want as iron / in the integration update the iron wil be replaced with steel) has to be out of gold... @SnowballFlame I like the 4th texture ^^ I will add it for now. If the crafting recipe gets changed, I will contact you again and ask for another color :D

[TheOnlySilverClaw]

Sooo... I will have my Swedish exam on Tuesday and can hopefully finish the Necromancer's Staff next week. I'm not actually sure how to make it look, though... Maybe the staff could be made out of obsidian, the tip could be an undead mob's head... depending on how rare the staff should be. Any suggestions?

[ThexXTURBOXx]

And I had my stage play yesterday and 2 days ago. I have more time now again ^^

[Squeekblach]

I tried to make a Necromancer's staff. What do you think?

[ThexXTURBOXx]

The idea of the texture is genious! I don't know, if it looks better then, but I think, if the head is a little bit brighter, it would look better. But I don't know.

[TheOnlySilverClaw]

I'm not sure about the mob heads as a tip, but well...if you really want it, maybe make them a separate layer, so we can make it look a little 3-dimensional.

[TheOnlySilverClaw]

https://github.com/TheOnlySilverClaw/Reforged---Cross-and-Grave/tree/master/java/org/silvercatcher/reforged_cag So, I decided to put the crosses and necromancer staffs into a side project, so I can release them as a standalone mod for now. I came to the conclusion that I could use three different textures for both items. I'm still not sure about the staffs, but the crosses could make do with the following changes:

1. wooden cross with gold centre
2. golden cross with diamond centre
3. diamond cross with emerald centre And maybe make the centres their own layer, so they can stand out a little.

[TheOnlySilverClaw]

So, I ended up doing my own textures for now. I like the crosses a little thinner, but maybe something between our versions would be nice. If you have the time, feel free to give them a final retouch, otherwise we will have to live with these:

[ThexXTURBOXx]

Hi, I would need a texture for a Caltrop. I thought of something like this: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/1e/Caltrop.jpg Is this possible? ^^

[Squeekblach]

[Squeekblach]

Whoops, clicked the wrong button just there.

[ThexXTURBOXx]

No problem ^^ And thanks for the texture: It fits the entity one's perfectly! If you have enough time, could you make a texture for dynamite, too? I don't wanna steal Balkon's one ^^

[ThexXTURBOXx]

Hello again, I would need a Dynamite texture (Right now we use Balkon's one...) ^^ And I am asking, if you could make some more crossbow-textures. I want to animate the crossbow a little bit, while reloading. I took those textures by you for now: Is it possible, that you make like 2 or 3 "stages between the 2"? That would be awesome :)
