TConfig [Released WIP] Knighty's Trenchcoats and Katanas

This is my first mod project for Terraria, so I decided to do something that is both relatively easy and which I've wanted to have for a while now: trenchcoats. I started out by taking the Arms Dealer's sprite and editing out everything besides the coat, then I edited further myself.

Along the way I decided to add in another thing I wanted: katanas. I know there's already a special katanas mod, but it's not compatible with the latest tConfig and can't be rebuilt since Fish Bowl has fallen off the edge of the Earth. Also, I don't like it.

Download:

Source, Obj, and Installer all in one Rar

How To Install:

Just download the rar and use the installer inside. You will need the latest tConfig installed , along with the Terraria Launcher GUI. You can get both of those in this thread here, if you don't have them already.

Well, it would be nice to let you all download the pack and see the new katanas and whatnot on your own, but since I know some of you will want to have it spoiled...

Deathweed Hookah

Allows you to smoke deathweed for the Death Trip buff, which greatly increases defense while simultaneously poisoning and blinding you. I want to redo the sprite.

(Scatters rose petals when swung. It's cute.)

Hiryuu (based on Molten Greatsword)

Recipe: 35 Hellstone Bars

(I really like how the dragon head design came out.)

Cobalt Daikatana (based on Cobalt Sword)

Recipe: 10 Cobalt Bars

(I wasn't sure what to do with this one, since the cobalt sword is already like a katana, but I'm happy with how it came out. Also, as for why it's called a daikatana, just look at the weapons compared to your player sprite - they're huuuuge!)

Recipe: 11 Mythril Bars

Adamantite Daikatana (based on Adamantite Sword)

Recipe: 12 Adamantite Bars

(Never liked the adamantite weapons' appearance. Sadly, even though I am proud of the work I did here, I still don't like adamantite. )

Kusanagi (Hallowed Daikatana)

Recipe: 1 Cobalt Daikatana, 1 Mythril Daikatana, 1 Adamantite Daikatana, 20 Souls of Might

Muramasa Paths (open) Muramasa Paths (close)

Since the new katanas make the Muramasa kind of meaningless, I decided to make it a little more interesting. The Muramasa you find in the dungeon, it turns out, is not the weapon's true form. Once you reach hardmode the Sorceror will spawn. From him, you need to buy this thing:

Salamander Forge

Using that you can work with some new materials. For one:

Damascene Bar

Recipe: 2 Demonite Ore, 5 Pearlsand Blocks

Repaired Muramasa

Recipe: 1 Muramasa, 10 Damascene Bars

Unfortunately, while the Muramasa might be repaired it's not very helpful. The pure Muramasa demands a blood sacrifice, and remember how I described the monster orbs as "crystallized monster blood?" Should be pretty easy to get those, right?

Aka, Kiiro, Midori, Ao, Kuro, and Shiro Muramasas

Recipe: 1 Repaired Muramasa, 5 of their respective monster orb

But wait! There's more than just colored Muramasas! Each of them has another upgrade! You'll first need some of these, though:

Orichalcum Bar

Recipe: 5 Cursed Flame, 1 Soul of Sight, 1 Soul of Light, 1 Soul of Night

Combine your colored Muramasa with 10 of those to get its ultimate form. (Hope you're up for killing lots of Twins!)

Asura

The Aka (Red) Muramasa's ultimate form. Has a chance to ignite, but also has an added ability. When below 1/4 health you get the Demonic Rage buff, sharply raising your melee attack abilities!

Zantetsuken

The Kiiro (Yellow) Muramasa's ultimate form. It's a dao weapon, so it has a chance to confuse enemies (though much less of a chance then the Dao of Pow) but it also gives you immunity to the three "mummy curses" - silence, slow, and confusion.

Murasame

The Midori (Green) Muramasa's ultimate form. Infused with planty goodness, grants the power of photosynthesis, giving regeneration when in well-lit areas. If the light is bright enough you get even greater regeneration.

Gojira

The Ao (Blue) Muramasa's ultimate form. The Gojira is kind of a straight-forward weapon. It doesn't cause debuffs and its only benefit to you is water-breathing and swimming, but it's very powerful and huge - the second-largest sword in the game, in fact, just a little smaller then the Breaker Blade!

Zero

The Kuro (Black) Muramasa's ultimate form. Transforms the user into a vampire. You lose your ability to heal naturally, an effect which lasts a few minutes after un-equipping the weapon, but you drain 20% of dealt damage.

Matsukaze

The Shiro (White) Muramasa's ultimate form. For the most part, behaves like an ordinary sword with one exception. Each swing creates "vacuum blades" which travel out a ways and penetrate enemies, slicing them up.

Everyone who has helped me out in the tConfig thread.
Yoraiz0r for helping write the code for the hookah.

I'm pretty sure it's a forum bug. Your post isn't the only one that is having issues with it.

edit post -> more options -> in the top left corner there's a button with 2 A letters on it , click that -> look at the part with the spoiler and I'm rather certain you will be able to understand the issue from then on.

Also , a nicely made mod!
I like your sprites... have you managed to make hands appear in the armor?

It's great, I love the coats and the swords are good aswell.
Can you maybe add more Coat colors aswell?
greetings

The spoiler problem isn't a hit-or-miss thing where the forum randomly adds or removes spoilers based on how it's feeling. It occurs when.. too lazy to explain. Gimmie the BB Code of your main post and I'll fix it for you.

No, sadly, I haven't. -_-;; I checked a bunch of other mods to find out if they had a way, but every mod I checked out either just used gloves or had the same problem.

I hadn't intended on it, but now that you mention it, I think I will. It'll be easy enough to be sure. Hehehe, I already know what I'll use as the tooltips for some of them too... "White Coat - "After labor day? You're the real monster."

Already done. Thanks for the help.

You should make the different colored coats craftable out of gems in the same color like "Blue coat -> 5 Saphire" and all that. Also I saw some more sprites in the folder aswell you didn't finished yet, you should do because the grey sword (can't remember the name) looked really epic.

The sword you're talking about is the Zantetsuken and yeah, I do plan on finishing it.

I also plan on lowering the leather requirement for the coats because gathering leather is really obnoxious. (15 leather = 75 rotten chunks, which likely means you'll have to kill over 100 eaters.)

What might be fair is something like "Blue Coat = 5 Leather + 5 Sapphire"

I'll be wearing the black trench coat and sunglasses. Reminds me of a certain movie..

I was considering adding the Magatama gem and the Kagami mirror as accessories, to go along with the Kusanagi. The mirror would most likely have an effect similar to the Cobalt Shield mixed with a Thorns potion. Not so sure about the gem, though.

Yeah, that movie with the crazy machines, and it had Keanu Reeves... I think it was called Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure.

Yes I mean 5 Saphire + the currently materials and you should maybe make it a bit hard. It's worth killing 100 eaters then.

I was actually referring to the matrix, but note that n\Neo is not actually wearing a trench coat, it looks like one roughly.
but anyways, good job!

I know, I was making a joke.

Also, yes, you're right. Neo's coat in The Matrix is not actually a trenchcoat. It's not even leather, it's just a long, black coat.

Updated! I'm still working on other parts for this, but adding the other colors of coats was so easy I figured I might as well just go ahead and finish it up really quick and put it up here.

Don't forget to update the download link.

Done, and it's a good thing you mentioned that. This mod is the first time I've ever used mediafire, so yeah.

Those coats are just great!
You should try to make a fitting part of pants for them or some more vanity stuff.

I might do that. The one thing I'm currently not happy with is the red coat. In the next update I'll alter it to make it more red.

Sorry for the double post, but thought I'd share next update's likely changelog:

• All katanas will be autoReuse, and will be rebalanced.
• Leather pants, to go along with the trenchcoats. Also, the red trenchcoat will be made a more vivid red, same shade as the red hat.

Also working on, but might not be in the next update, depending on whether I decide to wait or not.

• More interesting Muramasa with three different upgrade paths.
• Sorceror town NPC - Rescued from the Underworld. Sells stuff necesarry to complete the Muramasa's upgrades.

Sounds great! can't wait for it.
