Any problems I should know about with the steam version of Morrowind?
I know some older games like S.T.A.L.K.E.R. are a shit show on steam and you're usually just better off pirating them.

Is there a real difference between special edition and vanilla?

Can I use vanilla mods on special edition?

Vampirepost

I guess if not using SKSE.

Waifus and lore living in harmony

>Galen shits on nim now
>b-but he's not a shitposter

EVERY FUCKING TIME

harmony post!

GIMME CUTE ARGONIAN GIRLS, STAT.

Remember guys:

2-3 more weeks until we trash Nim. Get your memes ready, the guy is ready for some big time bullying. Gotta have to get rid of cancer like him.

KILL VAMPIRE Nim is cute, she can stay.

Ylfa hasn't seen Harmony in a long time, user

Harmony is the biggest meme.

...

I'm lurking since late 2014 and never saw the harmony.

Reminder that anti Nim shitposting is made by Niko. He is aiming to get /tesg/ team up against shitposters, further improving the image of Nim.

He did the same for himself with the countposting.

I should continue Vigilant some time with her, but can't summon the urge.

Ylfa is working hard on harmony right now!

Shut the fuck up Galen

Take a Argonian instead

Ayleidbro here. I don't believe there is a canonical answer but I'm still trying to deduce this from all of these translations.

***Of interest, why some Ayleid concepts are separated by a space. Par Molag, Molag Bal, Lipsand Tarn, Sardavar Leed. As opposed to Malada, Ceyatatar. Is Molag Bal literally "Stone of Fire" or "Firestone"? Is Malada literally "Highfane" or "Fane of High"? Wouldn't High Fane then be "Mala Da"?

Making dinner for her gallant hero?

Brotherhood post.

Excactly! And cleaning the house!

How do I make my ENB more go-fast? I remember doing stuff like setting max available VRAM in an INI file or something.

Best kind!

Ylfa can clean my house any time

Are there any recommended city mods for Oblivion? Better Cities has some great stuff but the sheer amount of pure crap it's filled with makes it super inconsistent and overall awful. Open Cities is alright but I prefer closed walls and compatibility. Everything else I've come across is Russian.

You need to redate your bsa files if you ever want to use texture replacers. If not don't worry about it.
MCP does this automatically when you apply it.

fuck off

We have harmony in the very early mornings when the only shit that's posted is decent content and whatever waifufag happens to be up posting "ded".

Another copypaste from my doc. I see why noone really FULLY figured out all of the Ayleid shit. And this is all referenced between two games: Oblivion and ESO. With only two tidbits from the Imperial Library.

(RoL) The Remnant of Light
by Beredalmo the Signifier
en.uesp.net/wiki/Lore:The_Remnant_of_Light

"autaracu alata" = Remnant of Light
"autaracu" = Remnant
*may be a compound word
"alata" = light
*We know latta is light. Is alata another form?
"fal sorn glathe" = Cold sunset limit
"fal" = cold
*As in snow? Falmer = coldelf/snowelf?
"sorn" = sunset
"glathe" = limit
"culle-anda" = food-stone
"culle" = food
"anda" = stone
**Food-stone sounds like a stand-in phrase, perhaps a mushroom, but they have no direct word for it. Calcelmo's stone translation also uses "culle" as food. However, the phrase used there is "cullei noue staneia" (foods ours staneia, translated as foods ours stones, or "the fruit of our stones", thought to refer to the poisonous mushrooms the Dwemer fed to the Falmer.)

>the sheer amount of pure crap it's filled with makes it super inconsistent
lol like what

Have you seen Bravil in the most recent versions of the mod?

Which Mer is least intelligent?

Dumbmer

I see, danke user.

Still juggling whether I should pirate or buy though, doesn't seem to be much point to buying a 15 year old game for $20 other than convenience.

Give me your blood.

What about it

Remember that Dunmer were made to be waifus, being such qt's and part of the best race.

I agree with this post, no bias on my end either.

I don't know whether to freeze Woe in ice or roast her over a campfire, but I know one thing, she sure is ugly.

youtu.be/kHYiyv68q2o
agreed

Mistel duo when?

...

It's full of OC NPCs with awful voiced dialogue and out of place anime waifu hair. The awful NPCs plague the entire mod with their bad dialogue in every city but it's particularly intrusive in Bravil. I'm sure some people can somehow look past it but I prefer to only use mods that have a bit of quality control. BC is quantity over quality.

Oh god it's happening again
Last time I installed oblivion I poured 2k hours into it
And now I have reinstalled it

Please help me, whatever creator may be out there please help

...

I haven't seen this meme in awhile. Classic meme.

Sometimes boodies need to be covered.

>Oblivion
Good taste user, enjoy going into hiding

Pff, I wish dunmer were as cute in the game as that picture shows.

GURIFFIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIISSSSSSSS!!!!

Wait, something feels off...

...

No idea, m8. I've never really stumbled upon a lot of Ayleid writing, mostly because I never really played Oblivion. The faces scared me when I was 14 and I refuse to go back to it.
If there's a reason to make a distinction between "Molag Bal" and "Molagbal," then I'd guess... Duality? Like, if it's an important enough distinction to put a space in his name, then it must be to draw attention to the two sides of his character. Or something.

Are you reading from UESP or the Imperial Library right now? If you are, I'd love to skim what you're reading.

Danke herr doktor.

Your face is off.

Best mer.

I will give you a list of references if you want the direct and dirty read-through. These are all references to the language, not necessarily the history of the Ayleids. In no particular order:

OBLIVION:
-Glories and Laments
-The Chronicles of the Holy Brothers of Marukh, Volume IV Or, The Cleansing of the Fane
-The Song of Pelinal Vol1-6
-The Adabal-a
-Magic from the Sky
-The Wild Elves
-The Remanada
-Ayleid Reference Text
-Denel's Dialogue
-Umaril's Dialogue

There are about 4 big missing books/series if you want the Ayleid history. Anything involving St. Alessia, Morihaus, Pelinal, Reman, or Ayleids.

holy shit nice

Woe a cute! Campfire :3

>Mistel duo when?
What kind of duo? I've yet to meet the other vampires.

10/10

That dunmer needs to get impregnated.

finally a album....This gonna be good

Are you actually playing with a vertical mmonitor? How's that working out for you?

nice

No, silly, that would be quite hard.

>The 3 goats use teamwork
A little bit too perfect

Finally, someone uploading something good. Thanks for saving this thread Prest

Purge riften next.
That shithole need to be obliterated.

can you give me your ability to play a game for so long please? I want to escape my boredom

Is Ava too retarded to use shoes?

I've gotten an itch to re-play Skyrim. Not sure if it will last, and with my work schedule, I'm really just looking for something that's low energy, easy exploration, that kind of thing. I have played before with the base game, those two official expansions, Dawnguard and Dragonborn, or whatever their names were, and the one where you can build your houses.

I was just wondering what sorts of mods were recommended, because I haven't played in a long, long time, and not really up on what's out there anymore.

It's called an adventure Clones, you should go on one!

honestly, you just need the files.
use openmw

there is an entire website at the top with mod recommendations on there just for people like you user

give it a read

If you're using MGE (which you should), you need to disable the Steam overlay. It breaks shit.

Can't. All i do now is play comp overwatch or stare at my screen.

When i start skyrim i can't even let it finish loading, have to alt+f4.

I wanted to do that whole story scene thing but with how fucked up my husbando is i dont think that's going to happen now.

just fix your husbando then

first of all look at the op
guardly died for our sins so we could have tesgeneral.com

second of all there's this
www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/58555/
thank me later

>knight
>paladin
>elf
>white

What a stupid naming, its just same as calling dwemers dwarfs. Knight-Paladin, the heck that is supposed to mean. You are either knight or paladin, not both.

Ohh this is good.

>but with how fucked up my husbando is i dont think that's going to happen now.
No wonder why, you probably crushed him with thighs/hips of yours.

>Can't. All i do now is play comp overwatch or stare at my screen.

Force yourself to do it. Download some shitty quest or new lands mod with no enb screenshots and see if its a hidden gem.

>I wanted to do that whole story scene thing but with how fucked up my husbando is i dont think that's going to happen now.

I'd offer to help you with your husbando but alot of people say all of mine have samefaces nor are all that good, so maybe someone else can help you.

Post your girls with default textures.

TAKE A BITCH SWIMMING ON HER FIRST DATE

lol

i already raised the eyebrows a little bit and lowered mouth + reduced lip size. (pic not related)
Its also so fucking hard to find actually good looking male armors. Not much stuff with 2-4k textures and that is properly shaped.

>No wonder why, you probably crushed him with thighs/hips of yours.
They aren't that big anymore! I severely reduced them and settles for longer legs instead.

>Force yourself to do it. Download some shitty quest or new lands mod with no enb screenshots and see if its a hidden gem.
Meh... maybe. If there's anything i haven't tried yet.

>I'd offer to help you with your husbando but alot of people say all of mine have samefaces nor are all that good, so maybe someone else can help you.
Getting similar responses, some people said he looks like a default preset, so i tried to make him unique and people would shit on that too, like that one guy with the weird blonde male elf said "he doesn't even know what the fuck i am doing anymore"

Male characters are meh.

How many goats wear shoes, user?

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paladin

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knight

fight me IRL

All male characters look like generic presets. That or you get abominations like Aylen or full on anime like Ra.

neat

Ayleidbro here. I agree from our language standpoint about the title Knight-Paladin. But in the case of elves and elven language, it's probably a distinction/clarification.

Most elven Paladins are likely primarily casters or not knighted, where he is knighted and/or melee oriented.

It could just be a developer oversight, I guess. But with the nature of Elder Scrolls and shit, I try to justify most things.

Also, he's white because he's a snow elf? I'm not entirely sure what you meant by that part.

Need leather strips to make the beds in my new home. Plan to walk to Riverwood.
Go outside and one of the deer that walk around the house is right at my front door.
I grab my crossbow and shoot it. I have leather now, but I feel like a dick now.

Yes, I am drunk

...

I don't think he looks bad. If you adjusted the eyebrows and lips like you said, I think he should look good. For the pic, that would be my only suggestion. I don't think he looks like preset, either. Male presets look pretty jacked up. I think he looks unique enough.

Male clothing and armor is suffering. If you find something that looks halfway decent, the textures are awful.

Males are hard to work with due to them having so little to use. Really only one good skin texture for males, one body mod and 90% of modded hairs and overly anime.

Ofcourse this is all my opinion, I liked your husbando but his brows were a little high and his lips seemed odd.

My biggest issue with him was his vanilla clothing.

I can't fap to any of that.

lol

>I don't think he looks bad. If you adjusted the eyebrows and lips like you said, I think he should look good
Yeah i made the lower lips smaller, raised the inner brows just a little, lowered the mouth like 3 ticks and did a few other adjustments. Gotta take some pictures tomorrow.

>90% of modded hairs and overly anime.
Thats why i just got rid of the hairs. all the mods i tried were absolutely horrible, so many hipster and fuccboi hairstyles good god.

>My biggest issue with him was his vanilla clothing.
Like the user above you said, there aren't many male armors. I went through years of posts on dragonporn and a few other sides looking to find something, but most stuff is either "i-have-to-compensate-for-something" BIGHUEG armors or 5billion witcher conversions with super low textures. Currently using "Contractor" armor with a few modular pieces from other mods.

are overly anima* oops

Y-you too.

Try this nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/78669/?

I use it for some of my husbandos, it's better than nothing.

>Like the user above you said, there aren't many male armors.
Mashups are probably gonna be your best bet. That or a Witcher port. Find a simple base armor and build off that with modular stuff like bandolier and Aeris armor.

You know, when I noticed all three of the resident goats were teaming up I thought it would be for stargazing and shenanigans in the goat tower, not horned terrorism.

10/10 terroristic threat tier. Would goat again.

>are overly anima* oops
you had it right the first time.

>Currently using "Contractor" armor
Give it back nerd
