24 different Wall Plaques made as placeable prefab groups.
Each Wall Plaque prefab is
- made with scaled placeables and absolutely no-hak
- turned into an environmental object
- height locked for use with Standard Interior and Castle Interior areas
Those Wall Plaques that have tintable parts (in addition to the shield itself) have included {TINT} in their file names.
The attached .rar file includes the 24 .pfb files for the Wall Plaques, the pictures and an exterior area where they are allready mounted onto a wall.
There are 2 ways to include them into your mods:
1. You can put the .pfb files into your override folder to make them accessible through the prefab blueprints.
2. You import the area "Storytellers Wall Plaques" into your mod and copy/paste the shields into your areas (I recommend this method as you can easier compose a group and retint prior to work on your own area).
Terms of use:
1.I did put this together from what's available in the TS so its not my IP.
2.If you are a mod builder or on a pw team just go ahead and do whatever you want. After all you invest tons of time yourself so others (including me *fg) can have fun playing your mod/pw. Recieving votes or some kind of credit would be nice but I am not going to ask for it if I encounter my stuff within your work - I'll be just proud that you used it :)
3. If you use this for your own prefabs (like building interiors p.e.) and upload them to the vault, I politely ask for a vote and proper credit. In return I will glady include your work in a reference list at the end of the entry: This pack was used in xxxxx -->link
4. PLEASE DO NOT include this (in part or as a whole) in any kind of "best-of the vault" pack. My count goes to 1000+ blueprints I uploaded so far - so I am perfectly able to do my own best-off packs, thank you very much!
This .rar file includes 24 single prefabs as .pfb files, an area for importing into your mod as an .erf file and the pictures accompanying the entry for reference.
Actually I had this idea back in 2006 and did some prototypes - but with all those creature packs I somehow lost track of it ^^ _________________________ In case you find my grammar/spelling weird sometimes -----> native german speaker ;-)

I never would have thought of THAT way to create new wall plaques XD.
@nicethugbert:
Item design is completely different from fusing toghether placeables - but there are several great shield haks on the vault.
@Flailer:
Usually there are only 4-8 shields even in a large hallway and if properly mixed the load shouldnt be worse as with a typical shop interior. This pack is simply about having a choice.
And thanks for the votes you two - and Jolly! _________________________ In case you find my grammar/spelling weird sometimes -----> native german speaker ;-)
There is only 1 placable that is a bit *laggy* when placed and thats the pine tree (used in 2 designs) the skull and the snakes probably are also demanding as the orignal placeables are quite large. The tower though is a flat background piece so it should be harmless. _________________________ In case you find my grammar/spelling weird sometimes -----> native german speaker ;-)

Very clever idea! There might be some concern about using a lot of these in an area since the placeables shrunk down would still be using the same amount of poly's as a large version. So, I just wouldn't go nuts and use dozens of them in an area - esp. in a PW. Great idea though!

I havent checked thoroughly but afair the only ones not working would be those including snakes.
Just import my area into a new mod and check where something is missing. then delete these plaques and export the area again. _________________________ In case you find my grammar/spelling weird sometimes -----> native german speaker ;-)
