Check back this weekend when we've got more activity
There's plenty of anons that play oblivion still.

Rate my custom Skeleton. I need some decent feedback, on what should be improved and what's fine. This was quite the learning experience, without blender.

Put big argonian weener into small argonian

that doesn't really help my cause

It's a very cute relationship and I hope the best for them.

The big horns still need a bit of texture work, the texture looks a little low-res, maybe upscale the UV or something. I would also make his calves/thighs slightly longer as the raptor claws swamp his lower body a bit. He's also got that dead-eyed look a lot of Argonians have, but that's easily rectified by turning his eye texture slightly to the left - it's what I used on Cries' eyes, so she actually looks like she's looking at things and not staring off into the distance. I really like him though, neato big bro Argonian.

I can’t be fucked to go through modding my game again and getting load order, patches, LODGen all done right, so I’m just waiting for Ultimate Immersion’s downloadable modlist.

Redpill me on fat NTR guy.

>consistently

Picture is a bit weird for something meant to showcase a model. Lots of lightning variety, pretty dark and contrast heavy.

But it looks nice. He looks a bit short on the lower body, like his legs aren't long enough for how thick it is.

I cannot get over how fucking brutal the Nord 'accents' are in Skyrim. Jesus Christ, spend an hour with a damn weegie ffs

I might grab a VR headset on boxing day.
There's a VR mod for Morrowind, Oblivion, and Skyrim right? I know there's Skyrim VR but that's far less lewd.

I don't know what this post means.

A strange post indeed. Anyways, how's your sex life?

Someone from Glasgow, which makes this extra ???

Just a friendly reminder that fallout 4, and fallout 4 VR, Skyrim and Skyrim VR would make amazing gifts for loved ones and close friends this holiday season.

>The big horns still need a bit of texture work, the texture looks a little low-res, maybe upscale the UV or something

I haven't gotten around the textures yet, cosmetics usually come last in a designing process.I also remembering someone also mentioning that as well. It's second on my list after custom tribal paint.

>I would also make his calves/thighs slightly longer as the raptor claws swamp his lower body a bit.

On it now

>He's also got that dead-eyed look a lot of Argonians have, but that's easily rectified by turning his eye texture slightly to the left

Do you mean litteraly turning the eye texture like two pixels to the left? Thanks for your input

>He looks a bit short on the lower body, like his legs aren't long enough for how thick it is.

I was thinking it's fine, but i guess not. I'll shape it up a bit. Thanks for your input

Left side is how I positioned Cries' eyes, right side is the standard Argonian eye texture placement. I found that tilting it slightly made eye movements and mfg as a whole look much better. It basically angles the eyes towards the snout, similar to a gecko.

That made it much better, thanks

Last thread I posted the below about choosing between Skyrim SE and Oldrim:

>Hoping for Skyrim to go on sale tomorrow on Steam, but I've been hearing that I should get Oldrim if I want to play with mods.

>It's been years since I've played, and was planning on playing the Requiem conversion mod to put a new spin on things. That, and some arms/armor/race and graphics extensions. Would that plan fly in the SE of Skyrim, or should I start looking for Oldrim?

user in the last thread mentioned Oldrim is no longer available on Steam, which is fine, but I'd still like to know what version I should get if I'm not into lewd photo shoots (beyond the occasional naked nipple) and more looking for a refreshing experience.

It depends. ENB is weaker in SE, and a lot of scripted gameplay and content mods are still locked to Oldrim, but you will have a better experience on average before any mods are installed on SE.

If you want to mod the heck out of it then go Oldrim, if you just want some basic mods and are ok with base Skyrim then go SE.

Thank you for the input. Sounds like Oldrim is what I'll want, since I've already played a good deal of vanilla, with and without mods, but total conversions and content are what I'm in the market for.

I'm guessing the graphical enhancements in SE are still no match for ENB?

Yep, though it will require you to find the right preset for you and then spend some time customizing it. SE has higher resolution textures by default, can support higher poly models and has a few new model shaders that nobody's using right now, but that's it.

Keep in mind I haven't played SE so I might be a bit biased.

>There's plenty of anons that play oblivion still.
Not true at all.

I do

What are your characters favorite things? Ever sense Doc stopped drinking he's had a voracious sweet tooth. Sweetrolls, pies, cream treats, cinnamon rolls, even fruits. If it's sweet, he's all about it.

Scented oils to use as perfumes. He collects them and makes his own mixes. It's the only alchemy he ever liked.

How's he feel about Telvanni Bug Musk then? Fan or no?

I also keep forgetting to ask you where those clothes are from, they're pretty snazzy

Too strong, ridiculously expensive after the Red Year. He's only gotten a hold of a single sample, and it was too pungent for his tastes.

Oh, they're custom. Yarti made them for me.

Her family, her dearest friends, fine living, fancy clothes and honey and bread.

It pleases me greatly that you came up with that off the cuff so quickly. Speaks to a well rounded character and a good writer.

I pose questions like this to myself and give myself 2 minutes to figure it out. It's an exercise in "asking" the character instead of coming up with an answer to such specifics. It sounds crazy but it works.
>Oh, they're custom. Yarti made them for me.
That's neat, maybe I ought to try my hand at making something unique.
Excellent answers. Does she prefer velvet or silk for clothes?

Minori likes clothes, jewelry, and makeup a little too much. She ends up buying so much when she travels that between the clothes and the shipping (to ship to her home since she won't carry it all), she really doesn't have a lot of money. She's trying to work on it, but she kind of grew up that way. Also, she prefers shorts to pants or dresses.

Is it just me or did Yarti's face face a bit lately. She looks younger.

It'd say it speaks more of how comfortable I am with overall lore and Imperial lore, I'd read up a ton on it and been playing Elder Scrolls for a decade now. But thank you for the compliment.

Head too small. Its supposed to be 4 heads to the bottom of your pelvis, not 5. You've increased his body size considerably and barely changed his head. Can't say much else when its so retardedly dark.

Where can I find a tramp stamp and queen of spades tattoo mod? If there isn't one, can anyone give me a simple guide to make it?

There isn't one. What you'll want to do is either use a tattoo mod that adds them as overlays in Racemenu, or bake it onto your character's normal, where you want it.

Everyone has such happy characters, eating candy and silk and shit. Where's the bleak @

I fixed up a few jaggies on her nose but those wouldn't be noticeable. That's the only real edit in a long long time.

I think there's a lot of factors are lending to that notion though. Bloom. The new tkre doesn't have the same old bloom radius section for one. I always had that set to 50. Indoors and out. So my bloom was notoriously low and warm colored. My diffuse probably popped a little more back then. Plus I haven't got my settings worked out just right yet so I'm having to use a bit of ambient lighting that I never relied on before. Those are all lending to her looking softer.

Been changing her hair a lot lately too. And most everything I pick seems to make her look younger rather than older. She mostly still looks the same as always when she has her normal old hair.

The secret to financing those extended shopping ventures is taking up sewing yourself. Put some clothes back out into the market between shipments.

Silk. The feel of the fabric, temperature control and textures are important.

Well, it's part of the story I'm writing so I haven't exactly advertised it but Doc's background is very, VERY dark. His life before and just after arriving in Skyrim was extremely bleak.

Fug the Thalmor :)

Neat. I really liked the overall mood in Skyrim and I feel like it works for darker/edgier characters.

I'm curious how you're writing things. Did you already have everything planned or does it come together as you play?
Pls compress photograph

Maybe not all of mine are currently in bleak situations, but nobody is allowed to happy. No happy, ever.

Oh, sorry I forgot this was a new thread and it's been like 12 hours since I posted my stories.

I'm actively writing backstories for my characters to practice my prose and moods. As for my in-game stories, I generally just follow the flow of gameplay and add my character's perspective to that. Take Notes! is a godsend of a mod as far as this goes.

Here's parts 1&2 of Doc's story, the only parts I feel are presentable at the moment.

The character featured here is a reporter for the Black Horse Courier and is covering the Civil War (and subsequently the Dragon resurgance, since the sack of Helgen happens just days before he crosses into Skyrim) and I'm basically going around and interviewing important characters. For the future though, he is an Imperial and a Great War veteran, and I very much see him getting dragged into the Imperial side of the War, even if it's just as a combat correspondent (think Hemmingway in WWII). So it's a mixed bag of what I'm playing and where I plan to go.

I have another character that's a thief but will eventually become a pirate and a drug lord, but I'm not currently writing any stories about him, it's purely for fun. I also have my canon LDB character that I only intend on doing image sets for.

>Minori likes clothes, jewelry, and makeup a little too much.
Don't all women? She seems to be a fan of gold, does she like silver as well? Or is it not fancy enough?
I think you develop better characters than you give yourself credit for. Research is possibly the most important part of convincing writing after all.
>Silk. The feel of the fabric, temperature control and textures are important.
Velvet is a tad warm for everyday wear.

I'm wondering now what people generally wear beneath their armor? A base layer of linen, possibly a gambeson on top seems most likely. Though furs and skin might be more common in the communities farther North.

Top 5 waifu butts?
Top 5 waifu titties?
Top 5 waifu lores?

Thanks. Not trying to humble brag or anything, just that English isn't my first language, so I feel like I still have a long way to go. I'm also pre-law, so my writing has a long way to go before it's up to scratch for that kind of writing.

archiveofourown.org/works/10399347/chapters/22964121

Here's what I have so far, though be warned the current chapters are being revised for clarity and mechanics by a friend who's a better writer than me. He's my inspiration behind writing Amerigo's story in the first place.

>>I'm wondering now what people generally wear beneath their armor? A base layer of linen, possibly a gambeson on top seems most likely.
The default non-naked body clothing you can literally see in game. You people question the weirdest shit. Like have you been playing degenerancy so long you forgot what the game is actually like?

>pre-law
What does that mean

Can somebody please post any pics you have of bimbo elf in aco, or an imgur album

Well-off nights would wear padded clothes like gambesons because linen underclothes didn't offer the best protection when it came to chaffing, sweating and bleeding.

You get a Bachelor's, you take an admissions test (in the United States, the LSAT) to apply to law school, you go to law school, you get your juris doctor, AND THEN you take the state bar exam to be licensed as an attorney/solicitor.

>>Well-off nights would wear padded clothes like gambesons because linen underclothes didn't offer the best protection when it came to chaffing, sweating and bleeding.
That's nice bae but this is Skyrim where you can punch a dragon to death level 1, literal magic healing exists and even low level non-combatants in villages can be stabbed in the face and barely even care. Not whatever the fuck you think it is. They wear what we see them wear in game. They have no reason to care about the downsides of it because they are all at least slightly superhuman in a world with magic.

The Party Clothes Delphine gives you are a modified gambeson. Maybe dial back the needless aggression. What you, the player can do > the dumbass NPCs, considering how often they get themselves killed by dragons.

I didn't think you were displaying false humility, I know the place you're coming from.

I've made it to Chapter 3 so far, and I have to say I'm enjoying it. It's very visceral and in the moment, and you do an excellent job of painting scenes with very few words. I'm going to finish it later. It's very good man, you should be proud.

Don't respond to shitposters.

Nevermind I'm retarded. I didn't realize it stopped at Chapter 3. Good work, can't wait to see more.

If you need someone that's a native English speaker to look over a rough draft or something just to spot check tenses and things holler at me. I'm usually around even if I don't post.

There is no aggresion. Its just facts. And the NPC's all wear the clothes I mentioned. As do you by default. You asked what people wear, I answered. If you want to ignore what people wear then why did you even ask? If you don't care about how Skyrim works and are just going to apply your own rules? Its meaningles sto talk about anything then because the answer is always ''Whatever suits your fancy''

Ah yes, answering his question makes me a shit poster. BRB installing naked sex fuck whore mods and posers to take screen shots. Fuck me for actually discussing the game and not weird fucked up degenerate fantasies or ''ey guys this thing I can clearly see how it works how does it work? it works how i can clearly see? well calm down geeze wow how dare you answer my question omg''

reddit.com/r/teslore/

since you're going to clash with 3/4ths of the posters here b/c you think it's nothing but tits and ass around here

Tits and ass are great desu

The characters run around in bikinis and loincloths by default, but in a nordic environment (the environment the game tries to depict) you'd typically have this or that under your armor. That's the idea the poster is trying to put out.

Look beyond the game dude, at the ideas it tries to represent. I also don't get the sex mod comments when this thread has been very sfw lol

Only if they're lore friendly.

I gave an example of another type of post we get here in what you quoted: Stupid questions that exist just to validate the guy making Skyrim, a highly moddable game you can make whatever you want, into whatever you want. Why not just change their undies if that's his plan? Why ask what they wear when you can see it in game? Just change them if you want instead of trying to justify it when it by default isn't justified because we already have undergarments in Skyim.

Maybe you would but the Nords are manly and magically resistant to the cold. And my point is still that I don't get why the fuck he's asking what people wear when he can clearly see it. ''What would be cool for them to wear'' or ''What would make sense for them to wear in a world that isn't Skyrim'' would make sense. But not what do they wear because I can go strip a random bandit right now and see they wear ugly whitish cloth like shit.

He's just shitposting. It's what the general is known for and that's all shitposters can cling to aside from "regular drama". Next he'll be complaining about how he's not part of the "circlejerk," mark my words.
Seriously, stop responding.

Water is also wet.

How can titties break the lore?

"Waaaah actually discussion best yell names at people".
Unironically you are the shit poster. Can't even have a discussion without childish insults. Grow up.

Last one from Thrillo looks pretty bleak.

Fake tits looking like soccer ball?

>Like have you been playing degenerancy so long you forgot what the game is actually like?

Nah, you're the shitposter. Picking fights then turning around and acting like you're the victim is what's actually childish.

? Who says they're the victim here? What victim? Its just a discussion. If you mean I'm your victim then wtf? All you did was throw childish insults because you can't handle people talking about the actual game instead of their OC.

The hero that /tesg/ needs, but not the hero that it deserves.

What are you, bored? Stop responding. Please.

I get that it's funny to watch the autist spin his wheels but let it die already.

Cumtears

It's a missed opportunity really. It could actually be really funny but it just kind of comes off as flat and boring.

Like when you see a super smoking hot new pornstar but they just do nothing on screen and its like"what's the point? At least try to put some effort in.""

Fatso should have made a literal Chad and done super goofy poses and faces and it would have been a riot.

Nope.

>Fake tits looking like soccer ball?
I'll tak Alteration magic for 200 Alex.

If you edit npc tittties it could. Like my lydia has bigger titters so the other followers know she's an alpha woman.

Why should we believe you?

sleepy /tesg/

>clones in thread
>goes to shit

makes me think

Yeah, but Dunmer Milk Cows have a tendency to wake me up.

Because I never lied to you.

literally just woke up user, calm down. i wont be around long

Not clones fault someone asked what people wear in a game where people have visible clothing and tried to justify it by applying real world logic to a real world faction neither of which apply in Skyrim instead of just changing his chars how he pleases.

Doesn't matter if he's a Chad or fat bastard. Cucking should be verbotten.

Clones makes top tier waifus but he's an insufferable faggot.
