Check these out. Went for a light saber look but didn't quite pull it off. They still look cool though. One of the swords is like ornate or jewel incrusted blade.

included is the bump long sword file.

have you seen the "Super Master GreatSword Pkg". For some reason it was moved to definitions but it was meant to be a retexture.

A moderator moved it because you " amped up the damage, added a summoner explosion, and this blade now has 10 aug slots.", those are definition edits. It fit there better.

I just tested this. It needs to be applied using CBox, and then it crashed my game when I looked at the weapon menu.
Has anyone else had a problem?
The only thing to be changed seems to be the textures.big, I looked at the longsword textures and they seem right, ie; DXT-1 and alpha set to zero. Maybe it is just me, so anyone else who tries this please leave feedback.

so you're saying the long sword texture crashed or the mster greatsword?

Someone had a problem with the master great sword pkg. I assumed it was the "amped up damage, summoner explosion and aug slots" so i removed that part of it and now its just a texture. the other mods are simple and basic (cweapondef). I reset my files just to load the fmp and the weapon mods didn't load. the textures did though.

Cbox gives me trouble where fx and particals are concerned. when i created the first fmp, I got a message saying "object not supported". that may have something to do with your game crashing. The textures should be all right though. If not, I included pics of the texture squares in the post. Just copy them and apply them to your texture files.

I don't want to use them, although they do look good, I was testing your mod. If all you are trying to distribute here are retextures, try putting them in mergable big format, it seems to be best for that.
I will try your Great Sword mod later to see if it works.

How to make a mergable big:
When you open FE, open textures, apply your retextures to the object
again(you don't even have to put the originals back after testing,
just reapply to the changed bmps) after you have made the changes,
right click textures.big, a list of options will pop up, click
'Save Changes As Big', save the file, then upload it to a file sharing site.
You don't even have to 'Save Mods and Run Fable', just close FE after you save the big.

To merge the big using FE:
right click textures.big and click merge big, and choose the saved big.
After it does its thing click Actions, Save Mods and Run Fable.

Update: Have been working on the existing sword textures and graphics and added some new swords. the way these are different is that i added bump maps, my own spec map, and glows.

point of interest: if you look closely at the Aeons blade youll see lettering. It spells out "Megadeth". and that is pure BUMP.

Created on Cbox, therefore must be applied by Cbox.

These all look very, very good. I only ask one thing: Please, please use BIGs instead of FMPs for retextures.

my problem is that:

1. Every explanation of how to create a BIG file that I've read is explained in terms of FE or shadownet. I can only use Cbox on my computer.

2. I either can't or don't know how to make a BIG file (on Cbox) without including all textures or graphics. If I could isolate only the ones I changed, that would be great. I just don't want to upload a BIG that would inadvertently reset textures and graphics that someone loaded before hand (from another mod).

So if someone would care to instruct me in the Cbox procedures Very Happy of making a BIG, I would very grateful.

There are no steps to producing a BIG on CBox, but the textures might have a better chance of not being corrupted if they're packed in CBox. However, since you're making FMPs on CBox, you need to tell others that they'll need CBox to load FMPs - it's a different FMP format from what's used in FE. CBox can use FMPs made by either tool, FE can only use FMPs made with FE.
