doesn't change from original game, so that would be Reaver's leader, and the slave traders leaders (i think it's 2 of them), wiki should say more precisely

Excellent mod. Seems like a Longsword to me :steamthumbsup:

Seems fine to me. Longsword blades can be ~31"-43" in length with an 8"-12" hilt, and the picture definitely looks like it could be around the short end of that. If we want to get pedantic, you could say it weighs double what a real longsword should (4kg where a real one might be 1.5kg), but that would probably mess with the balancing in-game. It's a great mod, and I'm definitely going to include it in my game. Thanks

Like a few comments pointed out, it's true that the correct name would rather be "Bastard" sword, instead of Longsword, but my main goal was to preserve the original model as much as possible, so I kept the original length.
As for the one handed usage, I think that's fine. Longswords, and mostly Bastard swords were often used one-handed.

I think most of us would agree that the most important part of the mod is the double-edged pointy end, giving it that medieval sword style.

It seems to be extremely short, despite it's name. My characters even use it with one hand
Trinity 14 Jan, 2023 @ 6:39am 
it could even be called "True Longsword", I made a mod that had a sword called "True Hamlet Sword" like an upgrade of the original
Trinity 14 Jan, 2023 @ 12:16am 
i mean making a new weapon and making that new weapon hacker, or whatever class you want
Lait  [author] 13 Jan, 2023 @ 2:57pm 
Thank you 多多!

Trinity, do you mean change it from Sabre class to Hacker class? Sounds interesting, would you mind elaborating please?
Trinity 13 Jan, 2023 @ 5:08am 
any thought on making it it's own hacker class weapon?

Thank you!

I understood, I said that I would add you, since this is my principle: If a person has allowed the use of his work, I cannot but indicate him.

I mean, I would appreciate the credits, but you don't really need to if you don't want to
KirrieD 26 Nov, 2022 @ 6:06pm 
Thanks. How is it not necessary ? Required) When the assembly is ready, I will make a newsletter and let you know)
Lait  [author] 26 Nov, 2022 @ 3:33pm 
Yes KirrieD, you may. Preferably with credits were it applies but it's not required :)
KirrieD 26 Nov, 2022 @ 10:20am 
Hi, can I take this mod and your other works for my build?)
Loot 20 Nov, 2022 @ 1:15pm 
Bastard sword is way cooler than the Longsword, anyway. c:
Arrogant Savant 20 Nov, 2022 @ 6:29am 
True and it's definitely more of a long sword than the vanilla one and to be technical about it in medieval times a sword was a sword no labels beside just sword.
Lait  [author] 20 Nov, 2022 @ 4:24am 
To be fair, both are double edged sword with a grip large enough to be used with two hands, so it could either be a longsword or a bastard sword. I, for one, prefer to call it longsword.
Arrogant Savant 20 Nov, 2022 @ 3:00am 
Well actually this is a bastard sword. XD
Lait  [author] 8 Nov, 2022 @ 3:43am 
Thanks!

The only mod I know that has a thrust animation is this one: https://steamproxy.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1691422256

Unfortunately, it isn't really a longsword combat per se, other than the thrust.
Loot 7 Nov, 2022 @ 7:37pm 
Looks good. Any good combat animation mods that will make it handle more like a longsword, I wonder?
tBelt 2 Nov, 2022 @ 6:08pm 
Excellent job; this is a top-notch quality mod!
Lait  [author] 2 Nov, 2022 @ 5:42pm 
Thanks guys! :)

It's not hard in my opinion, but I already knew how to use Blender. Learning the Kenshi modding tool wasn't hard either. I'm curious, what plans do you have for the short cleaver?
Kaisec 2 Nov, 2022 @ 12:20pm 
Holy smokes thanks ,this is how i felt about the longsword, which may be my favorite sword.
heres your award!
is it hard to make a new model? i've been thinking to remodel the Short-cleaver
MGJ Sakazaki 31 Oct, 2022 @ 10:48am 
Done greatly! <3
I'm a longsword fan too =)
Lait  [author] 31 Oct, 2022 @ 4:09am 
Agreed! The longsword needed the buff and actually look like a longsword!
DraxTemSklounts 31 Oct, 2022 @ 4:02am 
Oh i see. still good mod i love the greatsword/longsword but didnt feel like it was as useful as other weapons as it should be!
Lait  [author] 31 Oct, 2022 @ 3:57am 
Yes, I'm using the default textures so I didn't mess much with the textures themselves, only the unwrapping itself.
DraxTemSklounts 31 Oct, 2022 @ 3:54am 
Vanilla textures or? Im having trouble with my color. Beautiful in blender, i move to gimp and put that mesh into dds in and only some color is showing, alot of blank white and weird misplaced texture on the sheath.
Lait  [author] 31 Oct, 2022 @ 3:45am 
I didn't, I re-unwrapped the texture for the blade to make it fit the double edge.
DraxTemSklounts 31 Oct, 2022 @ 3:43am 
How did you get the mesh to scale correctly so the color works?
