My mods have all been translated into Russian and none of them contain nudity, overdone obscenity, or anime girls... I think mods can be translated into whatever language they want. If you see one in another language, tag it as such and then don't check that tag when searching. For my mod when someone offers to translate, I always just have them host it on their preferred site, so that people who speak only another language (Like RU or CZ) don't have to try to navigate an English website to use the translated version. It works out better for everyone. But some people still post translations here, so just tag 'em and move on.

Nope. Steam only touches files that are part of the retail game files. Verifying and defragging dont touch custom esp's or files.

Child voice actors are really hard to find. I was COMPLETELY lucky with the one I got, and he was one person out of like 80 interested parties. I'd suggest just finding younger sounding adults then stretching the truth with the magic of the players imagination to sell the part. It will be far easier then finding legitimate young actors/actresses.

Make it a master, then if they don't have that master (Don't have DG) the game will crash upon starting until they disable your mod's esp. If you don't make DG a master of your mod, it will load regardless, but any place where a DG model is used, it will be a giant red diamond with an exclamation point in it, signifying a missing model or texture.

They are different and this is a blurry line. You are not allowed to use things from one game in another game, at all. Some people have tried using them then giving instructions for the user to extract them manually, so since you would have to alter the meshes you can't even do that. Which again is walking a fine line. I'm sure you could find someone in the community to make you a teddy bear though.

FO3Edit and FNVEdit? Not out for Skyrim yet. :(

So long as people are not REQUIRED to pay for a mod it is allowed. At one point long ago donations were shunned, but apparantly modding is slowly becoming monetized in it's own way...

Yup. If you have a mod uploaded with over 1000 unique downloads you get access to a 'private' author section so like 95% of the people here can't get in and you can get right down to business. I kind of wish it was 1000 on any site... I don't have access to it yet in the Skyrim area, but my Fallout mod have way more than enough downloads. xD

That explains why everyone 'hates' the nexus for it's unfair bans. Lol. Whenever I ask people 'what did you do' they're like, "Oh nothing. I just [censored] [censored] [censored], [censored] and [censored], but was [censored] [censored] [censored] [censored] because [censored] [censored]." It always makes me laugh... The sad truth is many a modder have quit because to put it plainly, people are dicks. If the dickery feels like it outweighs the complimentary side of modding, they leave. It also has to do with how much they enjoy it. If they don't really like it, they're FAR more likely to leave. I'm in this for a job, so there isn't anything any group of people could say to make me quit, but trust me, I've wanted too before.

To add some perspective to this statement, there are also a lot of stuck up mod users. I get so many people that are persistant on blaming my mod for issues, which are very clearly either another mods fault, or user error. Yet they insist that I must be the one to fix it. Remember, us modders are putting hundreds, some even thousands of hours of our lives into these mods. Sometimes we are treated poorly, and things can get on our nerves. If you remain polite while talking to a modder, no matter the situation, and if they can hopefully do the same, we can keep the community light and friendly.

Nope. Unless the company has expressly stated that something (like those textures) may be used, it may not be used in any other games. This includes the soundtrack.

Pretty much every single thing in the CK is new or better or awesome. I have yet to find a single thing and go "Awww I wish they had kept it the same as the GECK." Of course the CK and Skyrim modding has it's slew of bugs, of course, but it's still so much better!

I hope you do to! :P

Type 'Priest' in the filter box and set the filter to 'All' or 'Static'. If that doesn't work try 'Dragon' as the keyword. It's not hard to find I've seen it a BUNCH while looking for other objects you just have to put forth a bit of effort. :)

Most (if not all) of those mods like Skyboost are no longer needed since Beth did the optimizations themselves and patched them into the actual game. I'm not sure if there's much left that you can do.

Seems legit.

Yup. As long as your new worldspace has functional LOD, the game will load the map. There's a few settings you need to set in the Worldspace window (Copy them from Tamriel, then tweak them to match your worldspace), and it will show the world map for your own world instead of Skyrim when you're in your own world. Complete with map markers and all. :)

You can also just set it's external emmitance to one of the FXRegions. That way it changes color with the time of day. There's normal ones (Bright during day, dark blue at night) and inverse ones (Bright at night, like light coming out of a window; and dark/invisible during day). Something should match your needs.

Awesome. Just a tip; Try to get rid of those fetch quests. I had originally planned Falskaar to have 9 main quests, and 14 side things. About 4 of which were full side quests, the other ~10 being fetch quests. However I quickly discovered that they weren't much fun and basically just wasted the players time. So I'm not turning all 10 'fetch quests' into full blown side quests. I urge you to do the same. Not only will it add more content to the mod, but it will leave the player feeling far more fulfilled.

That just kind of makes it sound like insignificant fetch quests... Will there be any meaningful larger quests? A new city is awesome and all, but if it's just a bunch of new buildings and people it will get old pretty fast.

Hmmm. That's an iffy area. You're using the games assets, so you would technically be redistributing them. However they're all mixed together into a ring tone. So it may fall under the 'parody' section of Fair Use. However I'm not sure at all. Also that isn't really a mod so whether it's legal or not I don't think it really belongs on the Nexus...

You've never been able to duplicate worldspaces as far as I know. The button exists but it's never worked. Not for FO3, NV, or Skyrim. You can do it using 3rd party programs, but I don't think most of them exist for Skyrim yet.

But people were saying things like 'If anything they would release Morrowind' which Beth can't because they don't own the rights to it. Again, Gamebryo isn't an engine, it's a middleware. With Skyrim (Not the other ones, ONLY Skyrim) they've copyrighted their own engine, the Creation Engine, which they now own full rights too. So legally as far as who owns the engine goes, they could release it, but theres still like 3000 reasons why they wouldn't, and shouldn't.

You don't create a two way connection. Make the marker a ref of the rock. The player activates the rock, which then says 'stand at my linked ref and mine' which is the marker. It's very simple.
