bruma fur armor Options

[moldymealworm]

yes, this idea came to me a couple days ago, may have come to people earlier... but, bruma seems like the type of town that would make different types of fur armors. so, how about a vendor that offers custom fur armor, sort of? you go out, kill a bear/mountain lion/wolf, take its pelt, and go back to this vendor and he'll make you an armor based on the type of pelt. for instance, the bear armor could offer the most armor points, and have a strength bonus, but be the heaviest. wolf armor could have an endurance bonus, and be the lightest, but have the least amount of armor points and mountain lion armor could have middle armor points, average weight and offer an agility bonus. they could all still be enchantable, and it would take a different number of pelts to get the types of armor, like 3 pelts for a cuirass, 2 pelts for greaves, and 1 pelt for helmets, boots or gauntlets. but, i have no l33t scripting skillz or armor changing skillz because i have no idea how to do it, so i have come to the great people of this forum to hear my petty cry... for a bitchintastic mod

Whoa, cool idea ... tossing a new black n white animal out there for them to find and kill and bring the skins back! Brilliant! The only black/white animal I can think of at the moment is a zebra - to weird unless we retextured a unicorn maybe. I don't suppose there are guar around like in Morrowind are there? Sorry, I haven't checked the list in TESCS. I could see an animal like a guar having a black n white spotted coat like some cattle do.

In order to make a mountainlion head helm look believable (not to mention a minotaur one) we will have to get into modeling. I will be going to Computer Animation school soon, perhaps I could work those in to be some of my projects ... or at least learn really well how to model them. We'll see. So far, I haven't even expanded the Oblivion data files on my comp for retexturing until after I reformat.
(Right now I have too large of a section of my hard drive devoted to w98. It is there for some older games I like to play, but it doesn't need to be as big as I've got it. After the format, my w2k side is going to be much larger and should be able to accomodate the MMORPG's I like to play plus Oblivion and it's expanded data files & TESCS.
