This is an ambitious undertaking and one that would be worthy of a whole game in it's own right, sound's brilliant. I stumbled on this because I wondered what had become of the Sarah Lyon's character, she was after all both a competent field commander and being groomed to replace her father with strong support among the Lyon's Loyalist's and I wondered what had become of the outcast's but given squire Maxon's rise to leadership they probably rejoined and strengthened his position with a bloody purge of the Lyon's loyalist's. Which leave's you another opening, Sarah may still be alive and a much closer civil war may still be raging or simmering just under the surface and waiting for the right spark to set it off with her surviving forces now outnumbered and beleaguered as they fight a valiant last stand against the return of the Bad OLD brotherhood or hide in plain sight among it's rank's with it's illegitimate new leader whom has not even earned his place and is not worthy of the title elder despite the strong loyalty and motivation's of the traditionalist's whom placed him on the throne. Perhaps Sarah and her follower's have been displaced but are placed to make a strong return hiding out in a former enclave bunker but not wanting to go into a full out bloody war with there former brother's they nevertheless have there spy's in Maxon's rank's and agent's scattered around the former eastern US, cue the Scribe a wandering former brotherhood scribe whom you meet and can recruit into your settlement's, he is an undying Lyon's Loyalist and left because of Maxon, or is he an eye and ear on the ground sent to the Boston region by the surviving Lyon's faction to monitor what Maxon's forced are really looking for which may something other than the Institute. And could a Resurgeant Enclave be also lingering in a hidden base waiting there opportunity with there own agent's among Maxon's forces or even in a twist about face be new allies of either Maxon or Lyon's, indeed could they even be behind the coup that overthrew Sarah Lyon's after her father's death after forming an alliance with the Outcast's whom then returned to the Brotherhood with hidden motive's.

Take bearded draughr, set it as a new race and give it a new AI package as the draughr is set in tomb's and you don't want to act as an undead as whitewalkers are more necromancer cryomage style creatures with a summon Zombie/Ice wolf spell. (the basic draughr AI would be ideal for a Cyberman type character though for Dr Who fans though the animations are not right for that) Make the new white walker draughre race to be 25 percent larger and change the skin texture to ice blue and the hair to white (Would need to set a new texture path for the edited model and redirect to the edited/new textures), make the eye's smaller by retexturing them too with a blue glow effect but remove the Draughr eye glow spell as it is not right and give it white or black fur armour and an icy translucent sword - even a stalhrim sword would do so stalhrim weapon's but enchanted to inflict ice damage. The horse is the harder part but a simple rib bone texure so show exposed rib's, spine etc at it's flanks and on it's back or a horse skull (Arvak would be perfect without the flame and with some flesh hanging onto it's bones) would have the effect so long as these were high level and not a common encounter, make it's AI to summon it's wolves or zombies and to stand off using ice and paralysis spell's until you are already weakened and make it equivelant to a basic dragon on hit point's. Now a playable version, an unfettered White Walker whom had broken free from his/her masters control - weakness to fire and silver, immune to frost, poison, paralysis and 50 percent to shock with additional magica pool but a 50 percent reduction in speechcraft, racial power fear. I am not about to make it but it should be relatively straight forward for any of you whom know there way about mesh and texture editing, the rest would simple creation kit work though the animation need's to be changed from Draughr to male/female human as well so the skeleton used for the character should be the human skeleton.

What you say is absolutely true, I am a conspiracy theory fan but this is not a conspiracy it is a fact. Sadly though as gamers we are stuck to the upgrade path or will miss out on new feature's. Still microsoft had cut themselves in the throat as this will mean that linux will catch up, so microsoft will undoubtedly release new direct X updates to try to stay ahead but given that 12 will now become the defining direct X this means that Wine and other emulators for linux will catch up anyway. Yes I also do not like the interface and did like window's 7 fine but it was like flogging a dead horse as it will soon become obsolete and go the way of XP as microsoft are scheduled to stop updating it soon with window's 8 having about another year or two on top so 8 user's are better catered for but that too is just spyware, well what can we expect from a free upgrade in today's world of big brother surveilance and idiots classifying angry rant's as act's of terrorism on the web. What they like to forget is all this monitoring is not security as it is against democratic free speech but rather it is control and oppression, give an idiot a gun and he will sooner or later shoot it, the same goes for the control of the net and those who take the power to do so.

Just upgraded using the media creation tool from microsoft as rollout of windows 10 is a bit slow, no problem's though for a windows 7 user the new interface is hard to get used too so far so it may be better to go dual boot for some user's and keep windows 7 or 8 as there secondary operating system. Now I have had a few minor issue's, the waves do not display but that is possibly down to a driver issue rather than direct X 12 which is a better version of direct X and much faster than previous versions. My system a 2 core budget CPU at 2.6 GHtz, 8 gig of ram, Gefore 750 ti upgraded from window's 7 ultimate 64 bit to 10 pro. So waves do not show up, some minor graphical glitches but nothing that is game breaking and indeed other than the waves (waterfalls are ok) it has only once been noticible in the loading screen model of the dark brotherhood door were the shadow's and side or the door were not rendered properly but so far no other problems except one possible culprit for this. When I started Skyrim in Windows 10 I got an error message telling me that TESVAL.DLL in my data\skse\plugins folder was not a windows application, TESVAL (The Elder Scrolls Acceleration Layer) is no longer needed anyway as an early official update to the game remedied the problem it was created to fix as did an SKSE update but I had it for compatibility and I think some other plugin or mod may have needed it, it run's fine without it after I moved it to a junk folder in my plugins folder and indeed it is far faster with less freezing that I thought was probably page file swapping on window's 10 than it was on window's 7. So some graphical glitches but nothing too big though sadly now my shore waves are invisible and other than that no problem's with the application or indeed any other I have tried so far. But TESVAL.DLL is not compatible at all with window's 10 even if you forgot you had it in your plugins folder. So it works fine with skyrim, no problem with plugins EXCEPT THE OLD TESVAL.dll or the latest version of NMM either.

I think they are rotten greedy grubby nasty little publishing houses, You dark one know better than any that this is the case as one of the two original mod site creators for Morrowind and your site is a success and the like's of Steam is absolutely Crud, maybe I am getting old but this idea just makes gaming so much less fun, sadly it show's Bethesda have completely forgotten the ethos they had when they created Morrowind and the first creation kit and may pave the way to rental game's with annual leases that expire, not cheaper (steam is full retail price but you don't get the disc or the case or the old maps and books that used to come with RPGs) but they will expire when your paid up subscription runs out and that is a whole scent I absolutely hate, software is on My computer, I paid for it and I regard it as my property in that regard but then even the operating systems are going that way and old style Mainframe cloud computing which as like resurrecting the dinosaurs instead of giving us mini computers on our desktops has resurfaced, to play a pun on words it is terminal for the personal computer enthusiast. I have no problem with modders making money and actually think it a good idea, in fact I think a portal at the nexus for just this would make a good sister site for your premium members to showcase there wares as an alternative to the dreadful steam but then you are up against that set up and they can tinker with the games internal code with an update or legally binding small print so it would probably be a small window and not last, then again they might then offer to buy out the nexus and move it into there's but that would see a huge exodus to whatever other site you then set up.

This is a valuable thread and I think the title is correct as this is the forum and discussion so long as it is not abusive is ok. I agree that and other site's lie SL? have ton's of ripped content and other problem's, the Nexus being so bit that make's it a target that these smaller site's might be able to duck under but you can bet that if these mod's appeared here the nexus would find itself in court so though the moderator's sometimes seem to go over the top in reality they are the reason this site still exists, it was not always like this but the old nexus was much-much smaller were today it is both the premium gaming mod site and very much on the radar of copyright lawyers. It is sad in some ways though as there are some really nice mod's on these and other including Asian site's. The real problem for us as gamer's though it we may innocently download something then think it look's cool so we then post a screenshot only to find out it is ripped content, there is a paucity of modern clothing mod's for Skyrim, not all of us are lore fan's thinking Skyrim could do with spicing up and so some of us go searching but this mean's we run the gauntlet of what is acceptable and what is not, the real problem we have not played all the games in the world so we may think something is original only to then be told it is a ripped mod from a game we have never heard of and I have run foul of this in the past but was thankfully informed by a fellow member deleting my image, fairy tale which was ripped I gather from another game. So two of the problem with black listed site's are. We may innocently visit them and download something not knowing it is copyright breach. We may upload screenshot's which though the nexus does not host the mod may still get the nexus a threatening letter from the copyright holder of the material in our screenshot. Copyright material is often also work and pay's salaries so it is taking the bread out of someone mouth or robbing someone of there investment literally and to steal there work in that way as we all know is wrong but even when it is not paying work it is still the hard work of someone who simply wanted to share there work with other's so when someone then steal's it that is just plain wrong as well, we all know though sometimes the copyright holders of some long dead game's like vampire the masquerade can be unreasonable such as the case with project Vauldery a fan made recreation using the unity engine that will now not see the light of day (At least with anything still recognizable as VTMB)) as a game company in Iceland called CCP game's wrote them a cease and desist letter, yet they have no plans on a VTM game either but own the IP so?, apparently they have shut down a few game's including MMO's by acquiring or already owning the IP though like in the case of VTMB they do not own the game or it's asset's, indeed that is a problem as no one seems to know who does. All this mean's that the Nexus could be sued by some killjoy lawyer who actually does not know the game simply because someone posts an image, it is more conceivable than you would think and because the nexus is so large they do look at this site, without the moderator's therefore we would not have this site at all and personally I can not imagine how they keep track of all the game's.

The nexus is and has alway's been the best site since morrowind and I also am very surprised that there are only 5 of you, your hard work is truly appreciated and obviousely there must be the temptation so sell this site as I am sure you will have had numerouse offer's. Thank you for sticking to your gun's, it is the atmosphere your policy's and user interface as much as the content that make this the very best of the best, compared to some of the other free game download site's none come's anywere near this but you have the right to make a decent living here so I for one would not really care about the advert's so long as the UI and policy's stayed the same, there are many other site's that for instance use a method by were before a download begin's a short advert is inserted with the excuse that it is showing while the dowload is prepared but this would create more time for server allocation and let's be fair it is cookies more than advert's that most of us hate. Thank you dark one. I am shamed by every one else going premium, I am paid on the 8th so will see about a lifetime one then as that is definetly the best value, and let's bee fair you are not paid by bethesda yet you manage to make the modding community far better and the game's with it.

Unfortunately the character I used was replaced by me shortly afterward so from the initial image I have only one other image of the same character in a wolf bears pride helmet and as I have also no viable saves of the character it would be well nigh impossible for me to do a green room shot with it but if anybody has sufficiant abillity use the image any way you wish. Dirk45 deserves speciall credit for making something of nothing but a simple idea and a bog standard image, the same to all of the rest of you.

Who is this sidebar, obviousely a creative individual to name themselves after a part of the windows desktop interface, I would'nt get worked up about a troll or in this case widget coffin, while this is a really good thing you have done, You created this from nothing but a slight inspiration there will be those whose jealousy or simple anti social attitude expresses itself in such manner as they can't act creatively themselve's they will express themselve's by trying to destroy what other's can create, instead of hiding in the dark shadow's of alleyway's awaitng victim's these cowardly subhuman mentality's now hide behind sub name's so don't let it bother you such is there lot they can only amuse themselves'by being negative.

Look's like zerokings image is deleted the url is responding as an error file not found on nexus, I'm trying to keep all the image thumbnails on the first image so anyone going there can logically proceed through them,. Thanks to all of you for creating this expression base for the community.

Dirk you are correct the data is becoming so large on those pages that it take's a longer and longer time to load the image, the only downside would be if multiple people upload and no one knows who was next so I suggest they also are referred to your forum topic were they could have any disputes or confusion adjudicated by the first ten uploaders or something similar (NOT ME) I also noticed that many of you are actually great modder's and am wondering if any of you are tempted to do some sporting skyrim mods because if they are well done, look how many sport's game's sell, remember the old console games and the early commodore and spectrum one's skyrim is crying out for a superior version of the race from oblivion to join the thieves guild or a mad Jarl setting a tournement with a valuable prize. I'm just a player not a modder unless you call my kak handed retexture a mod so won't be doing it. thank's to you all especially dirk for beginning this forum if you don't mind I hand responsabillity over to you I don't mind being the first but you started the chain reaction.
