/tesg/ ~ The Elder Scrolls General

well you see bud first you need a character that doesn't look like dogmeat

Hey man! That's really good advice!

90% of the people that post here begging for mods never actually post results of using said mods, get used to it.

I did.

wristseam

heres what the abs looked like

That sucks. I had expectations and am now blueballed.

Looking forward to it.

Nice.

...

anyone good with audio?

I need to convert some files to channel 1

post the sounds

8/10

Yeah, I'm a novice to audio. I need these all to be 16 bit wav and channel 1 for creation kit to read them.

I'm honestly just trash at making waifus so I've stopped trying to be honest.

I know you guys aren't exactly the best people to ask this, but how are the super low quality versions of the texture replacers listed on tesgeneral?
I'm on a burning toaster, but I refuse to believe textures should be this blurry everywhere and that it would be that much of a performance killer to just look decent even if not 16k

depending on their resolution, they should look better than vanilla skyrim by default, which is mostly 256x256 and 512x512 with the occasional 1k for certain things. The free HD DLC is a bit better if you have it.

I made my first script dependent mod today /tesg/. I hate papyrus.

here ye go

mega.nz/#!aZkR3KIK!x-lZdfUn-XLpOAz2G-PZC8g7pp8-gFpI5lABNPdY47I

its a simple conversion, you can do it with audacity. just load up a tune -> track -> stereo to mono -> export track -> ???? -> sounds

let me know if there are problems though. you should be good to go.

Same. I just like looking at other people's waifus, they seem to know what they're doing.

I'm looking for somewhere to take screenshots other than Whiterun region.

Are there any mods that add nice world spaces that I can use instead of default skyrim?

I am using it, it's just that it's still very iffy on things like rocks or wood doors
Things I notice because it runs right up into my face

use the texture optimizer with other texture packs and nitpick my dude

fair warning, don't go under 1k for grass.

Me too.
I'm envious of them really. I wish I could make pretty waifus.

They always come out looking jaggy as hell.

Mitt sure is pretty, and it's got some really nice assets, but god is it a buggy piece of shit.

The interiors are really nice. Shame the lighting is shit.

You mean this?
nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/12801/?
Is there a recommended guide for it? I've never used it before.

Okay lads, fresh install of skyrim

I vow here, on my honour:
I will NOT download script-heavy porn mods.

yeah thats it

you usually can just point it at a directory and let it process the textures for you, so nitpick.

Alright, thanks.

Thoughts on beards for khajiit?

>have to play the game on a 5 year old laptop because poorfag
>still got around 150 plugins going but it takes work
>one script too much, 2 extra added NPC's and it all comes crashing down
>can't even have steam open because it would take too much processing power
>every time I start modding it will take me at least 2 evenings to get that precarious balance right with multiple managers, programs and sorters
>mfw i see some kid with a $1300 new rig complain, bitch and moan about how throwing his 450 mods randomly into NMM doesn't work
>mfw later he starts threatening some poor mod maker that he didnt make his mod compatible with Skyre

These people should have tried modding Oblivion ffs

need to be unique for khajiit, not some cheap port of another race's beard

>Shame the lighting is shit.

That's pretty much the most important part to me.

nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/435/?

I've a patch for Blackreach Railroad, that'll fix most of its transfer-related issues. I've also got one for WoL that I'm soon to upload.

If it's any consolation, user, I have a pretty damn expensive rig, and I'm still just as autistic as you are. If not worse.

Some of the interiors literally just have like one ambient light source that lights up the entire place. It's really painful.

>Some of the interiors literally just have like one ambient light source that lights up the entire place.

Just like real life??

...no

Light doesn't come from nowhere in real life.

...

Yeah but skyrim doesn't usually make a lights using an actual light source, so it's a different issue here

Looks weird as shit man, I think there would have to be new meshes/textures where it's just the face hair being longer to make a proper Khajiit beard.

Do you have the fucked up fence textures at all? I submitted some small issues I found to the mod author: imgur.com/a/G0R03

Alot of the interiors have huge hit or miss lighting. I hope he fixes that, probably still a WIP since alot of places have one or two light sources.

Also, can you or anyone who uses Pirates of the North do me a favor? If you find your way to Ashcombe or Frostcombe, can you check interiors for missing tables? You should see floating items in corners. Im having missing tables and the author thinks it could be a missing mesh.

Wait till you go to the new land it adds. It's not amazing, but it isn't bad.

I need something to cover up those fucking jowls. Textures for khajiit suck.

I do in fact seem to have a fucked up texture on that one specific fence. Weird.

I also have the NPCs with the wrong voices.

Surprisingly, I don't have a grey face bug.

Stop modding for SSE

And while I'm at it, any good khajiit hairs?

Does the table still have collisions as if it's there? Or do the items fall down when you bump into them

No.
WoL's patch is up on Xbox, so if for some weird reason you actually play it on Xbox, go to town

Odd with the NPCs, I also seems to get grey face when others dont.

I don't fully recall, I think it has collision cause the stuff just kept floating. Or maybe I didn't get close enough. What's odd is not every table is missing, this must be a custom one.

If there is still collisions, then it's not missing: it's just invisible. I had this happen to a few meshes in Beyond Reach, they all came from a castle pack. Whatever resource had the griffin statues and shit.

Anyway, what was happening was the texture it used was originally built to be a ground texture, so in my game it had alphas for ground parallax.

However, the mesh had an alpha properties enabled in it. Because of the alpha flag value, it detected the alphas in the parallaxed texture and went invisible.

The solution? Simply right click>block>remove the NiAlphaProperty in the .nif and save it.

Of course, it could be something else. But I wouldn't be surprised if that was exactly it.

So basically now that you suck Bethesda's dick thanks them hiring you you'll support anything they do?
When will you offer paid mods?

Never, fuck paid mods.

*MK screeching in the distance*

ayo maze them audio clips good we gucci we goo'd? cuz imma fuck off back into my drug coffin now.

Not him, but paid mods would be sweet. The talent it would attract would be amazing for the community, and the only """negative""" effect would be losers like Apollodowns or Tendo pulling their mods briefly.

The main problem with the implementation of paid mods before were the shitty shares going to modders.

I've been spending a couple days making a mod that smoothly integrates spells left out that were in morrowind and oblivion and so far It looks like a lot of spells were superseded by more efficient or specific ones.

Weakness to disease is useless without a vector system in place. So is weakness to normal weapons because that was taken out of most dremora stats.

Disintegrate weapons and armor is almost impossible without skse because the disintegrate animation is locked in whatever function the disintegrate perk has. I'm looking into other attempts or dummy animations and replacing it with a pile of ash but that's worse case.

Levitation is another monster entirely, so is mark and recall and I have to find out which ones break the game in what dungeons.

I'm then trying to copy the combined casting here, and I haven't even confirmed if it's remotely possible or if I am going to have to jimmy rig hundreds of dummy spells to achieve the same effect.
youtu.be/8PedZazWQ48?t=190

finally I'm trying to set up a separate system on the enchant table to spellcraft discovered spells (Either a player would succeed in combined casting a new spell or they would read a in-game book in skyrim that details the logistics.) I'm looking to use the Disenchant font but I can't find anything on Animation markers for it.

so far I'm 5% done all of this.

Go away Toddler.

The last time that happened Arthmoor put down a paywall that forced people to pay for a needed update or lose their save files and delete the mod.

Hundreds of mods were lost and people stopped sharing assets which really hurt the modding community, and still does with some mods now.

Finally it's a copyright nightmare that will pretty much kill the community. It's a bad idea and bad people abuse it, so let it go.

>talent it would attract
>all the paid mods were shit

Uh huh?

Should I use GCD for my first Morrowind playthrough or is that a bad idea?

The only thing it's going to attract, and did attract, were fuckers looking to make a quick buck, potentially with stolen work.

It's a fucking retarded idea and you are retarded for thinking that there is any upside to it.

What's the armor Yarti's wearing?

Do Madd Leveler instead.

>paid modders
>arthmor
>chesko

>forever free fags
>Apollo "If you voted for trump, I'm pulling my mods" Downs
>SkyREEEEEE tendo

Yeah, nah. The paid mod crowd was full of talent.

Clead uunp

>arthmoor
>has done hundreds of hours of work for free
>asked to be compensated for work
>he is bad.

No.

>work

>The talent it would attract
No matter how generous the implementation, paid mods would never offer enough income to actually encourage new quality modding. There were two groups that paid mods appealed to:

1. Established, popular modders who could throw their mods up on the market to capitalize on their existing popularity (i.e. SkyUI)
2. Lazy shitters spewing low-effort shitmods for a quick couple of cents, mobile-game style

Well this sounds neat: nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/81804/?

Also Haar might like this: nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/81746/?

Oh, thanks for the tip Eiries-senpai. Ill give that a shot when I start working on rearmoring 90% of the npcs the mod adds.

if he wants to be compensated for a hobby, maybe he should get an actual job.

whats the difference between the two?

>hobby wood carvers shouldn't be allowed to sell their carvings because it was a hobby to them. Those damn people trying to get money in exchange for services are the cancer that will kill the community, despite the evidence of every other pursuit in human history so far.

Go away Marx, you're drunk.

>implying that's even close to the only reason arthmoor is bad
The fact that arthmoor was pro-paidmods is itself a criticism against paidmods

Madd Leveler takes less liberties with the system. It's "if you level up skills, your attributes will level up as well", and that's more or less it. Pretty simple.

i thought that was pretty much how it worked with gcd, guess ill have to read into them more

Thank you, did you convert it to uunp?

GCD rebalances a bunch of stuff.

Do you need to be reminded of 1983 video game crash, or the bubble that's about to burst in the mobile market?

What did he do to hurt your precious feelings, besides release at least one mod that I guarantee is in your list right now.

>person arguing for paid mods is a retard

Every time.

>a game market crashed once, then rapidly recovered, and this is evidence that nobody should ever be compensated for their work ever.

Yeah, go die in a gulag stalin.

Gonna need some fresher bait than that.

That's not what I was implying at all, but you're clearly content to fling insults instead of having an actual conversation, so have fun talking to yourself my dude.

>I'm asked to explain my position
>better just call b8 and leave before I have to support something with facts.

>mfw installing all the essentials without even trying the game once

going all in boys

>spent two days modding Skyrim

Just kill me please.

Nah.

>only two
lol

What relevance does the 1983 video game crash have to your point? It amounted to a shitty year for video games, but didn't actually kill the market. In fact, video games have since rebounded into one of the strongest industries in the economy.

If you're trying to use the video game crash as an analogy to paid mods, then what you are saying is that paid mods would result in a short term bad market (observed), before rebounding as people got used to the system into a better market than ever before.

...

Good luck, senpai. Did the same thing a couple months ago when I re-installed and I wound up spending a weekend doing nothing but troubleshooting and drinking. I think it's more fun than playing the game, sometimes.

>two days
Modding Skyrim never ends.

Mistake!
