Did you darkened the blade a bit, It seems so. Steel Greatsword's are my favorite looking sword in the game and since the Skyforge weapons use the same model i get to have a decent weapon...
Ive been looking for retextures of this weapon and i really liked the ones with darker blades and better details on the Hilt but when i saw this one... Sold! Amaizing work.
@Calemyr After some trial and error I manged to modify the shader flags so it uses a glowmap, however it's not using the specular anymore (though it's hardly noticeable).
Did your request with runes you wanted on the draugr greatsword

I've thrown the runes you wanted into my work file yesterday while I tried to figure how the new shader should be setup. As for the ancient weapons I might get to it, it would require some new texture work (instead of just pasting it on as I did with the steel sword)
Possible maybe, but it would be a LOT of trial and error without the creation kit, and that wont be out until January.
I can wait on the glowing runes, really. I'd be more interested in seeing the draugr gear bear runes at all, especially if the runes happened to mean Bah Zul Zahkrii.
Or... and I have no idea if this would work, but modify the glowmap so that it blocks the enchantment shaders, which would make the runes glow in accordance to whatever enchantment might be on the weapon while at the same time making that shader serve us rather than annoy us.
I've looked into adding a glow map for the runes, and as I figured it's something of a hassle. Have to manually rebuild the shader within the nif, and that nifscope doesn't even know what a lot of the of the variables are called isn't helping. Geif creation kit naow.

Yeah, it would be bad if it did translate to that. Skyrim doesn't have any dreamstone, so you couldn't upgrade the weapon at all.
