I'll post in update soon 1
I Suck At Coding Posted March 3 Author Report Posted March 3 Here's a little update for you guys. -Remade closed and open faced Sallets -Added Demi-Chausses(Still WIP) -Added Chainmail Collars Not a large update by any means, but it's still some decent progress. I've been working on getting the bugs removed, and I'm gunna need to move my old Combat Overhaul code into the items jsons, instead of having a compatibility file adding the Combat Overhaul functionality, so that might take some time(or be really simple, who knows?) Here's The Screenshot's (A Knight wearing the new sallet and mail chausses) (New Sallets Mail Chausses and Collars plus some other armors from the mod) Credit go to the owner of Visored Helmets for the front and back of the Sallets. Thanks For Checking my mod out, hopefully I'll make an update faster this time, all the mod needs now is a remodeled Kettle Hat, Pauldrons with Rondels, and Houndskull, as well as a scale helmet (like the one Dequitem has) and maybe some thinner Gantlets. For the technical side of things; i need to optimize the code, add the smithing recipes, and fix lots of console errors(mostly from the textures). And that's It.
I Suck At Coding Posted March 5 Author Report Posted March 5 Tiny Update -New Jack chains- -Updated all jack chain models -almost got the mail chausses to stop clipping(thought i got them done, then i found they clip when you crouch :/) Here's what the new jack chains look like The textures aren't my favorite, but i don't feel like redoing the texture code to just slightly change the texture, so this is what there'll look like for now. That's all for now 1

I Suck At Coding Posted April 7 Author Report Posted April 7 20 hours ago, NEEX123 said: Where do I get this mod now? I'll release it once i revamp the rest of the armor, and make it assessable in survival. Still don't know how smithing recipes work, but i hope it's simple because I've got over 42 armor pieces(including the material variations).
YakiYaki Posted April 21 Report Posted April 21 (edited) Super excited for this mod, it's looking wonderful so far. The reworked models are looking great, honestly the best helmets I've seen from any VS mod. Bascinet variations would be wonderful; obviously there's the hounscul already, but it would be awesome to see an open-face bascinet for sure, and maybe a klappvisor and great bascinet if you're feeling fancy :)Bascinets could be made distinct from the Sallet by having a slightly more raised/conical top of the helmet. I've inserted a couple of pics with great bascinets, they're not super well-known but they were very popular for like half a century in the 15th c., would certainly be a cool addition for some extra variety (and could be balanced slightly differently as well) Edited April 21 by YakiYaki 1

Iron basinet with visor And for the variations there'll be a wraith, cornet and crown that can be attached on the helmet variations, for example: bascinet with bretache, mail or visor. So you'll have say, bascinet with mail and wraith, or bascinet with bretache and crown. Note that the mail will be special, in that you will be able to combine it with all other variations, again for example: bascinet with bretache, mail and cornet; or bascinet with visor, mail and wraith. (Some variations i managed in get in the game so far) Steel basinet with visor Iron basinet Iron basinet with mail Iron basinet with bretache Iron basinet with wraith On 4/21/2026 at 4:36 PM, YakiYaki said: great bascinet if you're feeling fancy I would love to add great bascinets, but still don't know how to model something that round in a block game. On 4/21/2026 at 4:36 PM, YakiYaki said: I've inserted a couple of pics with great bascinets Thanks for the references, especially the second one, makes me want to add blacked armor even more. Well hopefully i can get this update done soon, then again i still need to update the mod and clean up the code, and that might take a little bit. Anyway thanks for the feedback, the update should be at least 50% done by now, here's an picture of what an basinet with bretache, mail and wraith would look like. (In the editor) Iron basinet with bretache, mail and wraith
YakiYaki Posted May 8 Report Posted May 8 Apologies for the late reply, only just seeing this! Dude these are so good, the bascinet model is looking great. The subtle slope on the front is really clever, alludes to the shaping of IRL bascinets perfectly while still working within the blocky style, really clever way of doing it. The visor looks great as well, you've got the angle of the eye slits exactly right, and the snout is a good size now. Also, nice work adding the detail of the leather where the aventail attaches, elevates it for sure. Love to see the variations as well, really really cool. Quote I would love to add great bascinets, but still don't know how to model something that round in a block game. Same, no idea. Might have to admit defeat with that one, especially since the helmet is locked to the head which is locked to the view direction, a great bascinet might end up with some gnarly clipping issues. The other variants are awesome though, so it's not too great a loss:) Small note btw, instead of 'wraith' I think the correct spelling is 'wreath' (unless I'm missing something). I think I've also seen that kind of fabric decoration called a Torse, that might just be an earlier style though, maybe not relevant. Again, awesome work, cool to see it coming along

Don't praise me to much as these are basically just modified models from the visored helmet mod.->https://mods.vintagestory.at/show/mod/25742 I trayed my best to make them as unique as possible, as i changed the bascinet form an late model to an early model, and with the sallet changed it from a gothic style to more of a plain style. On 5/8/2026 at 12:13 PM, YakiYaki said: Also, nice work adding the detail of the leather where the aventail attaches, elevates it for sure Thanks, i also made sure to make the leather climb up the sides as it is an earlier model. As well as making the helmets much smaller. as seen here. <---Verses---> <---Verses---> Also you can see the later model the mod was going after.

Haven't heard of an torse before, looked it up and it seems to be a more lavish wreath.

NEEX123 Posted May 15 Report Posted May 15 Did you ever plan on expanding with cheaper armours as well? mostly Jacks are what im curious about. They were armour that was usually worn over gambeson or chainmail and were made like a gambeson with layers of cloth but differed from gambeson in that leather was added to the cloth layers to provide better protection against arrows. Would help with common levy on RP servers and the like or a cheap interim before a breast plate. https://i.pinimg.com/736x/3d/46/74/3d4674611031a4b4ec41948e1133a808.jpg 1

Also might add some other cloth armor, if it's not to similar to jacks or gambesons. 3 hours ago, NEEX123 said: cheap interim before a breast plate. I'll make sure to add the ability to cover a breastplate with an jack. 1
