Mod Link: HatedMekkr's Workshop: Simple Katanas

Hello, Drifters!

It's been a long time since I've been with you. And I'm happy to come back to you.

This time, my new mod is the first attempt to create and add weapons to the game. And I hope I did it.

Mod adds new types of katanas - Simple Katanas.

My goal was to make models using original meshes and textures, so that it would fit perfectly into the atmosphere and style of the game, and which felt like it could be in a vanilla game.

Items:

There are several types of Simple Katanas:

  • Simple Katana;
  • Simple Light Katana;
  • Simple Long Katana.

There are also Paired Variations. They are differentiated by two sheaths on the equipment slots. But it's just a visual. Your character will still draw and fight with one sword.

The new weapon also supports the original textures, reflecting the gradation of each class.

FUNCTIONALLY, each new katana is different from each other:

  • Simple Katana is made based on Ninja Blade, but has other properties, penalties and bonuses;
  • Simple Light Katana is made based on Wakizashi, is weaker than the regular version of the Simple Katana, but also has its own penalties and bonuses;
  • Simple Long Katana is made based on Topper. It is stronger than the other two variants of the Simple Katana, but weaker than the original Topper, and also has its own penalties and bonuses.

I tried to make the properties of each new katana Logical and Practical, so as not to turn the sword into "trash" that no one will use.

(And I hope I did it. If you have any ideas for improving the parameters of the new katanas, you can share it in the comments.)

VISUALLY, gives more weapon variants to the game.

Blueprints and Crafting:

Blueprints of new katanas can be found at almost all weapon vendors.

"The fastest way" to get blueprints is Shinobi Thief Trader.

The blueprints of the katana have a [ALL] sign in the name, because it opens both the regular version and the paired variation.

You can craft new katanas on vanilla Weapon Smiths.

In The World:

Because katanas are more designed for Ninjas and Assassins, they can be found on ninjas from different factions like Shinobi ThievesSwamp NinjaBlack Dragon Ninja, etc.

If speak short - all the ninjas you could meet with Ninja Blade also have a chance to get Simple Katana.

(Here, too, I could use your ideas, to whom new katanas could also be distributed.)

Simple Katanas can also be found in animal nests like BonedogsBeak Things, etc.

Conflicts with other mods and Game Import:

As with my previous mods, I think there should be no conflicts with other mods due to the unique names of items, etc.

Game Import will be useful so that new armor appears on existing NPCs in cities or shelters. As an example, Shinobi Thieves in their towers.

New wandering NPCs with new armor will appear automatically.

All this will also appear in the vendors' products after the assortment is updated.
