CARRY ON SKYIM: AZURAS FOLLY W.I.P.

 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YwCQFBMFwCY

Hello all, I think its finally time I pull the proverbial finger out of my backside, stop procrastinating and bleeding well get on with finishing the larger quest...

WHAT IS CARRY ON SKYRIM?



Well at its very heart, the main incentive behind Carry On Skyrim is to pay homage, tip hat, nudge nudge, wink wink, say no more, how's ya father, to classic comedy. Some of it slightly referenced and others completely ripped off..(achem) I mean lovingly brought forth to a Skyrim audience. So far the mod features reference to Monty Python, Derek & Clive, The Two Ronnies and Cheech & Chong and the Hitchhikers guide to the Galaxy.

But aside from the above references, Carry On Skyrim also has a completely original story. I wont give it away here, but I can tell you that it revolves around Professor Benjamin Doon, Daedric Princes and Philip McCavity.

SO WHY POST THIS HERE?

The task is a very daunting one, hence my reluctance to carry on (pun?). I may need your help along the way, so like others here, I thought it would make sense to focus all progress and problems in one place. Besides, Im a numpty when it comes to certain things, Ill be glad of any help I can get.

Help?

I can always do with collaboration in the following areas:

  • Custom Spells (the sillier the better)
  • Custom Dungeons
  • Custom Armour (aiming for silly and pointless armour here)

At some point in the future I will also be putting out a call for voice actors, but that won't be for a while yet.

Okay here's a quick scene ripp..., I mean, playing homage to Monty python. At some point I will voice cast this scene again (It's all me at present). If anyone thinks they can do a good Yorkshire voice, let me know :blush:

Hi hi!

 

I love having Ben a long as a follower at this. At other times I let him sit in my library at home, farting around and finding pennies on the floor...

 

So, anyway! Could you be more precise about what sort of help it is you're looking for? :smile:

Hi hi!

Ah, now there's the question I was afraid to ask. You see, this is rather like frying an egg and suddenly both the doorbell and the telephone go at the same time. Which do you answer first, and what about the egg? You happen to be rather hungry!

 

There is so much to do that I sometimes don't know where to start.

 

Let me explain further:

 

My signature is very much true, I really am learning as I go. With each daunting hurdle, I tend to have to keep head banging at the problem until I find a solution,.. but the thing is, I'm beginning to wonder if I've bitten off more than I can chew alone. It's an extremely slow process for me ( I started this in 2013). So I wonder now if I should be seeking a more collaborative effort. In the end, I'm just a story teller I suppose.

 

Thus far, I have created four chapters of story, all completely scripted and functioning with a host of interesting and silly characters. However, the next chapter is the one that I keep putting off, hence my side tracking with Carry On Skyrim Followers; Ben & Mharphin (although, making them has taught me a lot)

 

Basically, I need to build two very different dimensions (worlds, well sort of, they can be interior) and that's the part that I find least exciting; building dungeons and filling them with interesting things (I've built three thus far for the previous chapters).

 

The other thing that worries me is the lack of content. Carry On Skyrim so far offers nothing but story and dungeon romping. I know that's not an entirely bad thing, but it would be nice to be able to offer a few exciting goodies, like spells and custom armour etc. I've only just begun to scratch the surface of spell making, but I have recently started teaching myself 3DsMax (Hence the Inquisition picture). I think I've just about got my head around it, but I know others can do better than I. There's a saying "Jack of all trades, but master of none". Kinda true in my case.

 

Regarding my scripting capabilities, Luckily, the rather talented Arron Dominion has agreed (I nagged him) to help with a few scripts (see the prawn soup vid on my youtube page).

 

So Things now seem to be finally moving forward at last... Phew

 

But in answer to your original question.

 

I can continue to do it alone, but I know it could be so much better if others got involved. It could be something special I think.

 

If anyone is interested, I would worship the ground they walk upon and send them biscuits on a daily basis for any help with the following

 

Dungeon Level design (needs to be custom if possible, I have acquired some resources for one of them)

Wacky custom spells (I continually beg Darren83, perhaps I need to bribe him somehow)

Custom weapons or armour (again, needs to be silly).

 

Additionally at some point in the future, I will recast voices for characters. I have a very interesting idea that involves recording certain modders and actually placing them in a certain part of the game. :blush:

 

If anyone is truly interested in getting on board, feel free to PM me.

 

 

P.s. Nobody quote this post. It's stupidly long winded... just like me (Purt) :laugh:

... got a little side tracked today. Started recording my lines for Mharphin and suddenly saw a way to link past and present together (Quest mod and Follower mod). It all makes sense in my head.

 

...mmm. now to work out how to create time portals :blush:
