As the title says, basically I'm looking to have a much more hardcore Skyrim experience and don't know where to start or where to look but I have a general Idea of what I want so maybe you can take a look and suggest some mods to achieve at least some of these goals - Harder combat generally ( much more brutal with dodges and such basically a combat system where you kill fast and die fast and where it relies on player skills much more than stats) and maybe hand to hand overhaul - Different Magic system, I'm looking for an overhaul to magic where you have a bit more open and diveres spells maybe even create your own spells and just a general rebalance - Dumbed down magic setting, what I mean iis reduction in the number of magic artifacts and reduction of the strength of enchantments what I mean is that even the weaker magical weapons ( such as those with burn or cold damage) are way rarer - Realistic needs, for this I think that I found the mod ( just the top endoresed one in the category is pretty great) - Hudless game or better hud generally - Improved economy where gold is not that easy to acquire and you can't but every thing' even basic gear should be rather pricy ( meaning swords and shields not worthless clothing...) and having an actual economy ingame would be fantastic with prices changing according to reigon and according to supply and demand - maybe some sort of a class system and also maybe some racial overhaul where the races actually feel distinct also stats won't be bad - much more restricted carry options, a lightly armored and weaponized character should be able to carry some extra items provided they have a bag, while heavy armored characters equiped with huge weapons shouldn,t be able to carry much on them so anyone has any suggestions answering some of these criteria? I really want to play skyrim with these settings and I still haven't found the mods to answer most of these and so any help is apreciated thanks in advanced, nashod

I want to start a bardish character which involves swordplay and using illusion and speak, problem is sword play means also blocking which I can't do with a spell equipped. So what I'm sugggesting is a system where the spells act as shouts that cost magicka OR a system in which you have a button to cast a spell which equips the spell in your hand casts it and then unequips it. Any can do such a thing? Thanks in advanced, nashod.

So I was thinking about creating a character that uses the thu'um as a main way of fighting but I kinda got stuck, while shouts can do powerful things they aren't really usable more than once or twice in a single fight and so they aren't a reliable way of fighting. So with the above in mind I started on planning a mod that will allow me to be a master of the thu'um, I believe the best way to improve the usage of the thu'um is to create a perk tree that affects the usage of thu'um, the tree is part of the speech skill but is a separate perk tree from the merchant perks, basically the speech skill would be divided into two parts, the lower tree which is the various trading perks and the upper tree which is the thu'um perks. http://www.freeimagehosting.net/t/9sd1r.jpg the dragon sign shows where the perk tree will be shouting will give speech experience so it will level speech. I have thought about many perks to be in the skill tree but I don't have time to continue writing now so I'm posting the idea here to see the modders reaction and I will continue tomorrow. BTW I had some inspiration from eldiran and his mod found hereso credit to him for the initial idea

hey all I'm mostly a stealth player and I decided to try magic and there's something that interests me does hits with bound dagger(a dagger conjured using conjuration) count towards blade or do they count towards conjuration (both in terms of XP and damage they do)

thanks for a million! u dont know how much u helped me now i can become a lich! edit: it ain't working :( edit2: it was my bad it's working thanks again!

thanks a lot i really appreciate ur trouble as i know how hard modeling is(i tried to model a sword and i just got freaked out from how hard is that)

hey all i need a few items and i can't wait until level 20 to get them so i need u to add them to to the IC market district ive tried to do so but the items didn't appear in the market district the items are: 2 spidal sticks 4 lichor 3 dedra venin 6 void salts 1 vampire dust 1 human blood 1 human heart thanks in advance for any help

so hey all ive been thinking for a long time about a shape shifting class u know ability to become different animals maybe half dragon a lich and more! but as my modeling skills are poor(a bit higher than zero skill) and im not a scriptter or texturer either i thought some1 from here will help me the concept is pretty simple making a class system pretty much like the druid class system(u can find the mod om talking about here) just replace the quest and the skills to more shifter like skills a few shape shift that could be nice are: 1)lich with a boost to magical stats and to all resistances and -to melee stats 2)half dragon with a nice boost to both melee and magic stats but a minus to stealth stats 3)bear high boost to endurance 4)cat with a pretty good boost to stealth stats 5)an eagle just for traveling so his attack power should be low but it should have high speed p.s melee stats are:strength&endurance magic stats are:intelligence&willpower stealth stats:agility&speed so what do u think is it a possible mod?and who would like to create it?

hey ive seen all those daggers u have done and u have got me excited about ur mod so can u please inform me when its out? p.s here are a couple of daggers i found and would wanna see in game so if it isn't a big trouble for u to make them please do dagger 1: http://www.enworld.org/forum/attachments/plots-places/37546d1227025083-death-dragons-rg-dragon-dagger.jpg dagger 2: http://www.reelcollectibles.co.nz/images/avp/avp-predator-sideshow-predator-dagger-prop-replica.jpg

what about an illusionist use a dagger and u will fight mostly by ur tongue command the first enemy frenzy the second and calm the third and watch them kill each other the major skills would be: blade(for back up only) illusion(ur main skill) block(for saving up a bit hp and to be able to pump endurance pretty fast ) and that's basically it u can choose any 4 other skills u like...

will im still practicing at modding races and such and i wanna know how to create textures as the textures of the races aren't just a drawing of a body are so they are some strange drawings that are hard to think off(check the argonian head texture or the body of one of the human races) also how do i make NIF files?

so hey all after crating my firs race with the game DDS files i would wanna use my own DDS files i have a plugin to photoshop and all tools necessary but i dunno how to place it i mean if u look at the DDS files you will see it isn't just a body it has extra thing so how do i know how to do it so it will match the NIF file?

thanks alot at last i could crate my race! really thanks

bump can any1 help me?

so hey all im a starter modder and i have a little problem creating a new race i do everything ok but when i wanna replace the faces NIF and DDS files i unpacked the meshes bsa and the texture bsa i browse to the directory and select the file but the CS says invalid directory what should i do?

will i dont wanna weil an invisble dagger as it will give me extra attack... is there any other options?

is there a mod who allows u to equip shields without equipping a weapon? as i wanna try a sorcerer and i want to equip a shield but not a weapon(like the guy in the class pic) so is there anything alike that?

lol learn to pay attention to what npc's say he said his tired of fighting so u proceed and he stay's there

ty for both of u about the mods i think ill remove the weapon mod cuz i dont like it much(a waste of 2/5k gold to buy a claw i will sell) but can u help me with fighting technique and help me with raising stats? (what should i max first and so...) p.s do u know if theres a spell in the illusion skill that will let me steal somehting in front of the dealer without making him angry?
