Moon Shaped Blades ?

tyra_oeildeloup · November 2023

Hello !

Aside from this : Dforce Dark Assassin for G9, are there any product for G8/G3 that includes moon shaped weapons, a bit like the Fae blades in Amalur or Illidan's swords from WoW ?

That's what I was thinking, that a lot of those had been made for V4 and even earlier...Thanks for all the suggestions tho ! There were several of them I didn't know at all !

Thanks for your help ! They are all very beautiful, I didn't try to convert V4 weapons till now (despite owning several of them, most of them from that "elsewhere" ...), I guess they don't get as much distorsion as clothing ?

I found a couple that might work with some tweaking:
Lyanna Accessories - Hide the Blade Base, Joints A and Blade Rings and you can use the center bar for a hand hold.
Polearms - This one would require some hiding mat zones as well, basically all but the blade and then use the section where the blade attaches to the pole as the hand hold. Main promo far left side.
Thosa Wold Blade - much more primitive of a curved blade but it's a freebie!
Batleth - a not-so-traditional Klingon Bat'Leth

Another idea would be to grab a bow that you like the look of and add a primitive cylinder or torus narrowed out to a blade on the outer curve to make a custom Glaive.
Fantasy Bows - Bow 4 Treant would actually work well in Metal and without having to add anything you'd just need to hide the bow string.

Think 'No Distortion', but they will end up in the wrong place and you'll need to move them to the right place and pose any hand etc to grip properly. After that you may need to update the shaders, and finally if it's something you're going to use again, it may be worth saving as a wearable preset.
