About this mod
A Variant of the Cosmo Spear Fantasy mod. Altered textures, grip and weapon stats.
- Requirements
- Permissions and credits
Changes:
- Mesh: The spear is held slightly closer to the pommel. This looks more natural to me and results in it not sticking so far up into the air when stowed on your back.
- Textures: I modified the 4k textures to my liking. I was mostly just messing around to figure out how to edit textures with GIMP. This texture has more contrast and a bit of color... because I really like magenta.
- Stats: Compared to the original, this variant is heavier, attacks faster, has increased reach and damage, increased gold value, increased stagger and increased critical damage. Some might call it overpowered, but the original is already stronger than every vanilla weapon. I view this weapon as something of a late game acquisition.
- Recipes: The crafting recipe has been updated to make more logical sense, but also to be more difficult/expensive to craft and temper.
- Miscellaneous: The variant is named "Spear of the Cosmos" as a tribute to the original, and it does not (at least I hope it doesn't...) overwrite the original spear in-game. Also, I added the keyword for compatibility with DAR.
Acquisition:
Requires Ebony smithing.
Craft at any forge using 2 Steel ingots, 3 Ebony Ingots and a Flawless Amethyst.
Temper with 2 Ebony Ingots.
Installation:
Ensure all requirements and their prerequisites are installed correctly.
Install using Vortex or manually by adding the contents to the data folder.
Uninstallation:
Remove the following items from your data folder:
- Spear Fantasy - Ash Variant.esp
- spear_LP_spear_BaseColorA.dds (textures/Spear Fantasy)
- spearA.nif (meshes/Spear Fantasy)
- 1stspear.nif (meshes/Spear Fantasy)
note: While my variant has the DAR keyword, this mod does not add it to the original. For that you need Cosmo - Spear Fantasy .esp file with keyword for DAR.
