I've seen these on a lot of other servers. They aren't really my style personally, but I'll never say no to having more customization options for literally anything. +1.
Yeah, most aren't really my style either, but I do see a few standouts that fit in with the better looking weapons on our server that are original or CEP. I think maybe 20-30% of the pack appeals to me and I'd be using several as soon as I had a moment to craft them if they were added.
Originally, the morningstars caught my eye because the ones from the base game are really blocky and their texture has not aged well. Then, I noticed those nice stiletto daggers that would even look nice as shortswords, they're like baby rapiers. A few of the handaxes are really not too shabby. Bastard swords and battle axes I'm not too sure about, would have to see them ingame and in motion, but I think most of the scimitars actually take the aesthetic up a level rather than compromise it.
It's kind of hit or miss but seeing as his project is ongoing we may see more soon, it might be worth keeping an eye on.
they look like they're just reskins of existing weapon models. Maybe I'm missing something.
Yeah, basically the backstory with this pack is, I think the ex(?)-lead designer or something from Beamdog decided to just release his work independently. It's higher fidelity versions of the original models.
Even if they don't end up added, there are apparently modder resources packaged with them. That could help other aspiring modelers learn.
