Re: LoC Reloaded - Development Thread

[nargil66]

What is new in development:
I'm currently implementing my own version of Throwable Spears in LoC, similar to this Steam mod by @zocwu:
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2879594692
Credits to the author for the great idea. For LoC it will work in a slightly different way though, i set the throwing skill (Power Throw) to have 4 seconds cooldown, with +50% Total Damage and 33% chance to pass through enemies. While im working on spears, i might as well add lore descriptions and display base attack speeds on them.

Another thing from yesterday - new tiger(2 model variants, 8 texture variants):

Vanilla-Like model


Modified model


Texture variations (shown with 1st model):


The textures are made by @Rumeur and @soa in SV Discord, the model is a Saberlion edited by me.

Working on a new model today - Sha, Beast of Set:



I first learned about this creature from LoC mod, i hope you like it, Bumbleguppy.

Animations are still WIP, but here are some (shown on earlier model/texture):

My first reaction was "Oh, man! I wish I had these a couple of mods ago!" before I scrolled down to see what you said about seeing them in one of those alphas/betas lol

Ok, i haven't posted new progress lately, here is something new i'm implementing for LoC... Fishing!

The system is still WIP, but it's shaping well so far.

Originally my plan was to make them compliment normal potions, as the elixirs from EE... but after finding that each requires a scroll slot, i used another way. Basically, when you eat a fish, you summon a monster, which dies and spawns a proxy with an array of different "buff monsters"... they are hostile, but they dont do damage, they are there only to "debuff" you with a positive buff, and die. It's a bit complicated, but it works, hehe.

Edit - the list is finished (see the spoiler)

protecting ecology at all costs

I've made some variants today, to have different combinations between skin and hairs. Previews:

Spoiler for Hiden:

[Bumbleguppy]

You know, I used to view your work from the point of view of a modder myself but you've progressed so far beyond my abilities that I only see your work as a player now

So at least my amazement isn't muddled with an analysis on techniques and how it was done, I just really like 'em

[nargil66]

Wow, thank you for the kind words! What i do is just combining assets really. Pick a bunch of flowers to make a bucket

[nargil66]

Here are the nymphs in-game:

Tonight i'll upload the latest source files on Nexus, so the new changes (fishing, nymphs) get preserved.

[Bumbleguppy]

Wow, really great looking Nymphs...so many details I love it <3

[nargil66]

Wow, really great looking Nymphs...so many details I love it <3

Thanks! I think a few more hair variations wouldn't hurt. Also, i have to bake a new look for Sylvan Nymph too, right now she's left neglected:

The latest files are on Nexus btw.
