No worries, pal. My post was a bit long because I like having substance to my post, instead of just a few lines. This wasn't a "consoles suck, PCs win" post, I was just ruminating about cross-platform modding.Fijiman said:
But, OT.. I would like to see a mod simiar to the Oblivion mod Oscuro's Oblivion Overhaul. I've noticed that Bethesda went with the "world levels with you" idea again, and I guess that's my biggest gripe. I'd also love to see some kind of town-development mod. For example, Bloodmoon for Morrowind had the character participate in a line of quests for the East Empire Company that centered around the ebony mining town Raven Rock.
You can look forward to this, I think. Bethesda actually textured in the land from Oblivion and Morrowind. They're very low-quality, but they're there in correct size/scale. My suspicion is that they were included so that modders could do exactly this. Maybe if we're lucky, they have some kind of oblivion/morrowind expansion pack planned.TerribleAssassin said:
Well I think mounted combat is coming, but as for broadswords, there is a mod called JaySuS Swords that adds 47 new craftable weapons to the game. I'm using a Fine Bastard Sword myself. However, I'm not sure whether it's faster than a typical greatsword.Soviet Heavy said:
Search Wars in Skyrim IV.Bhaalspawn said:
Fus Ro Dah? Also there's a Lydia mod that makes her stop saying that burdens line, and replaces it with "show me what you've got" and "Let's see it" or something like that. There's 3 lines now. Basically there was already pre-recorded lines with her voice saying them, so some genius just swapped them into her dialog.Randomologist said:
Midas Magic adds a ton of new awesome spells. There's also some destruction magic scaling spells for more damage, although honestly my lvl 45 mage has no problems dropping enemies even on Master so I'm not sure what the issue is there.Arnoxthe1 said:
Yes, JaySuS Swords adds a ton of great swords to the game. That one is easily one of the more interesting ones, but there's definitely a lot of cool ones. Like rapiers and cutlasses, knight sword, argonian and kajiit blades, just a ton of stuff.Rastelin said:
I actually just posted a huge amount of my favorite mods on my blog (see my profile for link) so I've spent a lot of time looking for all kinds of cool stuff. Hopefully I'm being helpful here =P
Would said sex minigames include the men and mer races? Because I have soooooo many ideas of things to do with Aela, what with both of us being werewolves, and...Saulkar said:
Oh, don't look at me like that.
Fus Ro Dah didn't work, nor did the whirlwind sprint. I never bother with Lydia now, Mjoll can't carry as much but she does have a convenient habit of being immortal.Wolfram01 said:
Also, "Let's see it"? Matron. Sorry.
I saw that, but sadly the ground lacks any collision and is scaled! but to a smaller one than required to be a full expansion, my bets are it was added for detail.ianeddy44 said:
Hopefully there'll be a total conversion that changes the Skyrim quests into the past Elder Scroll's games quests.
so your telling me, there's no way to have a hot key, to swap character models, that grants one use of the games dragon ability's (flight, fire breath ect) -.-brainslurper said:I have been using it since it was released. What you want is simply impossible, unless they are very small, humanoid dragons.Kitsuna10060 said:i bet it is, since that tool set is out nowbrainslurper said:Interesting idea, probably not possible.Kitsuna10060 said:two words
Dragon Transformations
pretty much explains it self
i've seen the TES modder community sir, i have no doubt its possible, complicated maybe but possible.
Hand-to-hand perks. I want perks that can make my Kajit into a badass martial artist with kicks, paralyzing punches, and the like.
More craftable/upgradeable items. I'd really like to be able to make my own arrows, and apply my smithing skill to upgrade some of the more esoteric armor, etc.
Fix spell damage so it viably scales. This is a general problem with magic in Skyrim - it really doesn't balance well against melee/archery. Probably change the level capping on Illusion effects to be a function of your level, your skill rank, or some relation between the two because illusions are kind of useless in the current version. Also, related in general -
Broader, more interesting spell selection. While I can understand not wanting to have a situation like you had in Morrowind where magic was a viable bypass for a lot of skills (who needs Lockpick when you have Open spells, who needs Sneak when you have Chameleon, etc) I feel they really did par the spell lists down far too harshly. Magic got kind of boring, and that's just a shame. Probably include more enchanting options too while you're at it. There's some interesting esoteric enchantments already out there if you go and look for 'em - Huntsman's Prowess, Silent Moons, Fiery Soul Trap, etc. Put in more interesting/niche stuff like that to broaden out the world.
Broader, more interesting weapon options. The talent trees have options that focus on specialization in axes v maces v swords, I get that, but don't let that mean that those are the only weapon choices we can take. Let us have spears and flails and crossbows and whatever. Hell, broaden out some of those weapon categories themselves. You never see a saber or a club. Widen the pool a bit. Also, let punching dudes be something you can build for without having to be a khajiit; I'm cool with them having a boost to it, but at least let other races have the option of being a one-punch badass without it solely limited to a little brawling minigame.
