UPDATED Version 1.01 (October 8, 2018)
This is a simple sci-fi rapier, made to be used with MME active and Autoluminous Effect. Anyway you can get nice results also without Autoluminous.
The model has 11 shape morph sliders + 10 autoluminous sliders
Morph sliders are almost all independent, so they can be combined (see the list below. morphs marked with asterisk are "standalone" or conflicting with other sliders)
Morph sliders (left to right)
1. Normal (no morph)
2. Guard smaller
3. Size smaller (affecting all)
4. Size bigger (affecting all)
5. Blade longer
6. Blade shorter
7. Blade wider
8. Stiletto shape (*)
9. Guard extended
10. Handle longer
11. Handle shorter
12. Handle torsion
Autoluminous sliders
- Autoluminous ON (main AL activator, white light)
- Red, Green, Blue light sliders
- 6 advanced autoluminous sliders to control light blinking/pulse, halo size, etc
Of course it has a control/attachment bone on the handle.
If you use the 2 resizing sliders, or the handle short/long sliders you could need to adjust the position in model's hand once connected

It's always amazing how artists call an Obvious a Longsword and a Twohanded sword Rapier. Scifi or not, this is not in the least a rapier, the artist should read historical fencing book or a book about swords in general. Then such accidents like this hopefully are not happening again, like this representation. It like cutting holes in a KFC bucket and call it a full helmet.

Ok, Ive reviewed the general shape, setting the blade width in a way it should remind more a rapier than a longsword, and added more morphs to control the sword shape

In fact, your sword is more of a riding sword. Long sword blade with enough handle length for 1 1/2 hand within.
For a rapier there is missing first a flatter tip, then the hand protection and the balance point knob or pommel if you prefer. As hand protection, a hand bell or an intertwining Metal/steal basket can serve ass well too. Then the sword cross as well as the three transitions sections of the blade, are not represented accordingly. You have to differentiate between a light rapier for duels up to 1,1kg or a heavy variant up to 1,4kg. This was also the variant which was used on the battlefield and outside duels use. The Bolognese School or Italian Tuscan fencing school was one of the more he mediated the battlefield fencing than that of the duel. Because on the battlefield or in backyard battles, you can´t choose your opponent. Therefore, cut and thrust was the way.
And sorry for using the metric system.

I use the mertric system too, and I'm italian. And a sword with a blade built to hit on point is pretty useless as a riding blade, the same way a rapier without a nice guard to protect the hand would be useless on a battlefield.
What in italian we cal "fioretto", "spada striscia", "spada da lato" are civil swords, having infact a wide and evident protection over the handle, because they're supposed for a civil use, without heavy protection; while the "stocco" is a military sword, with lesser guard protection because they are supposed to be used by soldiers, having gauntlets to protext their hands. But all of these swords (very different) are just all called as "rapiers" in common language
So I know all what you mean.
Do you know the term "sci fi", I suppose? Fantasy and sci-fi blades are often all but functional, often they're also ridiculous for their useless (or worst invalidating) ornaments. They're imaginative swords, not historical ones.
This is not a historical replica.
I hope this was evident for you, or I expect you could call George Lucas and accuse him of being "stupid or ignorant". Just for having called "lightsaber" a sword that can no way be a saber.

I'm sorry, but I am getting tired of this discussion, I have already made my point clear. Your explanation does not change the fact that this sword is not a rapier. It does not have the shape, function, or even the remotest proportions of a rapier.
Since you are Italian you can set yourself apart with the original texts of Achille Marozzo, for exsample although these was witten in Bolognese or Tuscan and it does not primarily treat the rapier fight but it gives a solid basic knowledge for later studies in other sword fighting styles.

Your mistake is the assumption that I have to familiarize with swords, while the only problem (or at least what you've turned into a problem) is that I've published a low-poly, sci-fi imaginative sword, that you're considering as if it was an historical replica. Error for error, "it doesn't have the shape, the function, or even the remote features and proportions of a riding blade". A blade made to hit on point instead of the edge is useful as a riding sword as a cycle is useful for a ball-fish.
By the way the treaties about renaissance sword combat style are just a LITTLE piece in the swords history, and I wouldn't suggest them as a "solid base for later stdies" as the renaissance combat style, studied and formalized to teach civilians in street fighting is pretty useless to understand how swords can be used in any other occasion that's not a duel between two middle-classassed-to-rich/noble duelists. Try using a typical italian sword fighting style from the renaissance period on a high medieval, roman age, classic or medieval chinese battlefield and you'll fall dead for sure as litelly NONE of those techniques would help in understanding what's needed to survive.
Yes, I'm tired too. Tied for having transformed a banal low-poly sci-fi rapier on a "battlefield" for historical dissertations. Just repeat: have a phone call with George Lucas and call teach him a nice lesson about medieval/renaissance swordsmanship, as he's been so idiot to call "lightsabers" his own invented sci fi swords although they're not sabers.

Actually the model at its "natural" dimensions and proportions is the second from right. Yes, the wide blade better suggests a long sword, than a renaissance rapier. I called it rapier just because I plan to use it applying the included mophs to get something more similar to a rapier, infact. About the two handed, instead, you're not right, or at least your comment doesn't apply here

You are trying to call a longsword a rapier, your reworked image is anything but NOT a rapier. The next thing this sword represents is a riding sword but not a rapier. Your objections make no sense none of these sword represents a rapier. And who here recognizes a rapier is just ignorant or just stupid and ignorant, thats fact!

This is a sci-fi rapier, Tollnag. I can post you any image from what all the world calls rapiers and their blades. By the way in italian (my own language) we 've different terms to identify different swords that in english are all just called "rapier" (i.e. fioretto, striscia, stocco, and so on). The romboidal blade section, the blade length and guard makes this a rapier.
Sorry for your nice lesson but this cannot absolutely be a riding sword, as this is no way a blade built to hit by the cutting edges, this is a blade built to hit mostly by its point.
This definitively puts offside you nice theory about this to be a riding sword
As I wrote before, this is a morphing sword, customizable by users' needs. Let me say I find almost useless the pedantry you're putting on the whole matter, above all considering this is a very LOW POLY model (this also limits the details I can use in designing the blade shape. You'll note, for example, that a feature surely missing is the shrinkage toward the point.
Anyway I feel difficult to politely discuss with people unable to discuss without distributing "stupidity" and "ignorance" labels. Have a nice day.

you just roasted the fuck out of this guy XDD

Well I now expect him to call George Lucas and call him "stupid or ignorant" because he called "lightsabers" the Jedi Knights' swords, although they are not, evidently, sabers.
