Awesome work as always Rubies! Reskins are totally fine, we have had several of those in the past. Usagregco66kg is right, Lisa made the holdable books. Feel free to include a ReadMe file giving credit to her, that should cover any ooginess?

Ya those are nice.

[TheSpiritedLass]

Just a reminder bump for all those CC gurus out there, the original request for this theme by ehye_khandee was for equipable holy symbols for the Forgotten Realms deities. Any takers?

[The Amethyst Dragon]

I didn't do model work this time. { Insert stunned gasp here. }

I went the scripting route.   Just emailed my submission.

"Holy Gear" Scripting

Two main scripts involved in this one.

"Hurt the Infidels" Script:

This one is a tag-based script for weapons with the On Hit: Unique Power property.  Once a builder personalizes the deity info inside the script, it enables holy weapons to be made that will fire off a special effect against followers of opposing deities.  The single script can handle multiple weapons (all with the same tag of course), even if each such weapons are supposed to call different effects or is aligned with a different deity...it all gets run off 1 or 2 local variables set on the holy weapons.

It's all explained in the script's comments.  Some minor scripting ability required to personalize, such as encoding the names of the deities for the module and which ones dislike which, and putting in the actual desired effects (3 example ones included, these can be pretty much anything).

Of course, now I'm going to have to set this one up in my own PW module. :innocent:

"Holy Items Limitation" Script:

This script either replaces the default module-wide OnEquip script, or the marked code can be copied into a builder's already modified OnEquip script.  If an item is marked with a deity's name in the variables, and the PC equipping it doesn't have the same deaity, he or she can't equip that item (it gets immediately unequipped and a warning given).

Well I don't currently have any means of showing pictures of my submission, which I just this minute sent. So I would appreciate feedback as to if these are acceptable. I ask because I have found some more images that I can utilize if you want more. Ooops, forget to say what I have sent. It is a set of 34 forgotten realms symbols processed to give the effect of being freshly painted on 2 meter square wooden plaques.

What?! There are unknown goodies in my mailbox? *Pounces on the poor unsuspecting mailbox.*

Ohhhhhhh.

[The Amethyst Dragon]

Nice work, Tarot Redhand.

[Tarot Redhand]

Thanks guys. Please be aware that these are planes that makes them slightly trickier to place than if they were boxes. I would have made them as boxes but I couldn't get them to export properly and making them planes meant that practically all the work was in doing various things to process the images into what I wanted them to look like. Also be aware that I have used very large textures here in an effort to get all the texture detail that I wanted (they're 512x512 tga's for 200x200 models). I have used tga's because I found too many were screwed up by making them dds.

As to posting more, I won't be able to do so before the 2nd of may I'm afraid as here in the uk we have a lot of public holidays just now which means that I won't be able to access the inet before then. So what I'll have to do is to create and wait until then to find out if you'd like them a little bit late.

It is getting pretty quiet in here. Is there no more mischief to be made this month?

[Zwerkules]

If I can finish something on a Saturday afternoon, like the teahouse, I'll still take part in this month's contest, otherwise I don't have enough time.

[TheSpiritedLass]

A new tile! That would be great Zwerkules. What did you have in mind?

As far as the deadline, I'm not going to look at doing the merge and demo until Monday. So that gives y'all at least an extra day. Realistically, this one is going to take me a while to do as I can't sit at my desk for very long at a time. So that will buy y'all a couple more days if you need it. Tentatively I'm shooting for a Vault posting date of Monday the 9th, but no promises there.

So there you go, at least another week to wrap up your holy relics.

Here is the line up so far:
OldTimeRadio - Beholder Hagioscope - Files received but not processed
OldTimeRadio - Secret shrine of Rallaster - Files received but not processed
Rubies - Holy Dark Books - No files yet
Six - Ancient Altar - No files yet
Six - Shield - No files yet
Tarot Redhand - Holy Plaques - Files received but not processed - No portraits?
The Amethyst Dragon - Holy Gear Scripting - Files received but not processed

Using Este's amazing Celtic amulet from November's challenge, a texture from WikiCommons, and some Gimp magic, here is an Eye of Ra amulet. 

[The Amethyst Dragon]

Nice amulet.

[Zwerkules]

My 'holy symbol' is finished.

[OldTimeRadio]

Lot of nice stuff so far and WOW, Zwerkules!

[Dark Defiance]

All wins here! I have to start adding all of our CC to my HAKs soon. Yes, even my content has yet to be added. Haha.

[Jez_fr]

woah, really nice stuff. You guys really makes me want to produce stuff again!

Congrats! ^^

[Zwerkules]

Then why don't you?
What keeps you from making more custom content?

[Estelindis]

Love the stuff I've seen from you all in my absence.  My favourite is Six's Tyrran shield.  :-) Sorry to all for not being around more lately (am snowed under with my PhD thesis), but if you don't mind waiting for just a little bit I'll be able to post a load of holy symbol stuff to add to the challenge. :-) At the very least, there'll be amulet holy symbols that I was working on a while ago. I applied the suggestions people made in the feedback thread this month at least (i.e. fade-out towards the tops of the icons, though the change isn't in the image I posted), even if I didn't start the work this month. But better these than nothing, I reckon. ;-) I'm also gonna quickly try my hand at a holdable holy symbol, but if I don't get it done fairly speedily I'll have to leave it. Just have too much other work to do.

PS: I might as well post the amulet icons now, in case you're in a hurry to get this stuff (which, to be fair, was supposed to be posted today).  But I have blueprints on another computer which I'll be getting back to tomorrow, and which I can send you then.  Still fiddling about with a holdable for now...

[Estelindis]

I've managed to turn one of my necklaces from a previous challenge into a holdable holy symbol. I'll see how much variety can be added in the next day or so and then send what I have.

[Calvinthesneak]

As always your work never fails to amaze Estelindis. That looks really nice.

Good luck with the thesis. I just finished my diploma and I've had enough, no thesis for me!

[TheSpiritedLass]

Nice looking altar? Z! The etching detail in the wood is pretty.

*tackles Jez* Come now you know you want to make some stuff. Don't make me break out the feather of tickling. *evil grin*

Seconding Calvin's comments to Este with a bit of 'dang girl!' thrown in. Looks like you have blueprints made of all the amulets? Since I'm not changing the file names to keep them CEP happy, could you zap me out an erf file so I don't have to remake all the blueprints?

[Estelindis]

I will send you the blueprints later tonight, if that's okay; they're on my laptop in the house I'm renting, and I was visiting my parents for the long weekend and didn't take that with me. Thanks for the kind words (thanks to Calvin too) and talk to you later. :-)

[_six]

I'll need a day or two to get my stuff presentable. My first exams are tomorrow.

[TheSpiritedLass]

If you can get them to me by the morning of Monday the 9th, that would work. Especially if you already had blueprints made for them (many thanks for the amulet blueprints). I imagine there will be a ton of blueprints needed. We would just need/want to coordinate what 2da lines to use before the blueprints get made. That deadline is fine for the rest of the gang as well. There are no tiles this month so I can have most of the demo module already done and ready to go.
