The Forge

Version: 13

This mod is deprecated in favour of Frontier.

This mod never reached a mature stage.

I cannot be blamed if it crashes your game and corrupts both it and OpenMW.

Note: I am currently playing with the values of ores and ingots, to try and balance things out a bit.

This mod adds an entirely new element to the game.

Blacksmithing.

Now, not only can you learn to repair things, you can learn to make them.

This adds a new source of economy to the game, as well as a new skill to master.

An anvil in the courtyard at Balmora (Temporary Location)
- The anvil cannot be operated unless you have an Armourer's Hammer.
A smelter in the courtyard at Balmora (Temporary Location)
- The smelter cannot be operated unless you have a Blacksmith's Glove (ID: smith_glove).
A book of recipes. (ID: smithbook)
- Everything in the book is implemented.
A book of jewelry recipies. (ID: smith_jewelry_book)
- Everything in the book is implemented.
- This covers all the base rings and amulets.
A way to convert scrap metal to iron ore (which is also new).
A way to convert any ore into ingots.
Several new objects for exclusive use in smithing.
A smithing skill. (Max of 100).
Scripting to prevent grinding the smith skill. (Loss of XP on repeated attempts on the same item.)
Ores should be able to be found in the wild as well.
Gemstones (apart from pearls) can be found alongside ores, meaning you won't have to farm dremora.
All Battle and War axes.
All clubs.
All maces.
All warhammers.
All staffs.
All daggers.

Smith skill will cap so that the hardest items still have a chance of failing for the best smith.
Any metal misc item should be able to be broken down.
Construct any unenchanted weapon or armour.
Construct lockpicks, probes, etc. (Combination of lockpick skill and smith skill).
Item value dependent on smith skill.
Add anvils to multiple locations throughout the world.
Maybe a quest item for a master smith. (Generally a master sword or axe, in lore).
- Upon achieving skill of max, add journal entry and MessageBox it.
