I know of a couple: -Agent of Righteous Might: http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/33766//? very well done quest mod, voice acting, new locations, new (more like resurrected) faction and more. Quite lore friendly and fun if you like playing as a covert operative. - Pit Fighter and Pit Fighter Travels: on the Steam Workshop, not anywhere else by explict intruction of the author. Has a full blown Arena fight and reward system, much like Oblivion's Arena. Special Boss fights where you get unique weapons (includes new meshes and textures, plus some new ones crafted with a combo of old and new). Also you can perform quests for your fellow arena combatents. Pit Fighter Travels is a add-on for Pit Fighter and has new locations, armor, weapons, and boss quests.Titles, money and glory await!

ehh..I don't think its odd. As for the voice acting...I could do it, I do have a decent mic and do like to record myself talking (yea I'm that type of guy). As for minor mods...make a mini mod for each part of your grand mod that covers a diffrent mecanic: -such as do a mini follower mod to figure that out -make a mini converstion for a npc to work on dialoge and speech trees. - make a mini quest of "go kill that guy or get that apple" so you learn how to make a quest That way, when you go to work on your Grand mod, you'll know how to do the basics. just my two cents.

Well..stupid is not the right word...ambitious would suit your plan better. :thumbsup: As for the possiblity of getting all of that to work...without any prior experiance....hope you have soundproof walls and a lot of bourbon. cause you'll be doing a lot of this :wallbash: followed by this :sweat: when it works. Its great that you want to pull a mod like this off, but I would suggest putting it on the back burner for a few months and create and release some minor mods to ease into the modding scene and gather that experiance with the tools of Oblivion.

try Oblivion Character Overhaul, its been released for the past couple of months..but in my opinion its the best way to make the faces of npcs and your character more realistic and more Skyrim-ish. oops...smile already beat me too it..still its the best I've found

Well... all of those mods listed are excellent, but I feel you left out three good ones, that I find essential for gameplay; - Reeners Guard Overhaul: http://oblivion.nexusmods.com/mods/5977//? makes the guards less godlike in their ablity to hear and see right/wrong, also separate crime bounties for each of the cities - Oblivion Character Overhaul: http://oblivion.nexusmods.com/mods/43612//? makes all the vanilla races less potato like and greatly adds to the realism of npc and player faces..may not work with Rens Beauty Pack - Vampire Hunting- Order of the Virtuous Blood: http://oblivion.nexusmods.com/mods/30568//? this is in my personal top ten list for Oblivion. It merges several different mods to create this one a fully standalone mod...and it has it all...dialogue, custom armors, custom weapons, new quests, new bosses, and ranks that takes a minor faction in the game that only had one quest and fully turns it (pun intended) to a full blown guild and quest line comparable to the vanilla guild lines. oh..i almost forgot.. Welcome to the Nexus! :thumbsup:

the body replacer should be installed after the unofficial patches...since the mod will override the vanilla clothing with versions that fit to the body replacer your wearing. installing the body replacer before the unofficial patch will cause issues including but not limited too crashing, texture problems, and your oblivion game crapping itself.

yea i still play skyrim...oblivion too....and once in a bluemoon ill whip out morrowind. TES games never truly die...they just like to hide in our closets for a break.

going with pure vanilla (Vija and a few others are so awesome its not a fair contest) Serana is more in detail, wuth story and interaction. Frea is just a typical follower who trips over everything and is just a thrid wheel. So serana wins out of the two but I cant stand either of these two as followers. Frea is just a typical follower, while Serana's whole daddy issue and problem keep reminding me of a vamp teen drama. when i want one, I ll watch The Vampire Diaries. Truthfully im a solo player 99% of the time, the other 1% i order them to attack giants... if they survive i keep them for a while, if not... one less follower to use and more loot for me.

there are several unique dragonpriests each with there own masks. Also there is Karstaag.... more like a major boss ... and lurkers count as mini bosses, so does the Frostmoon Pack and the riekling chief

i always leave a few septims on the dead boss of whatever dungeon or contract for the brotherhood. I always picture myself saying "here...this funeral is on me" then i walk off

hitting the stalthrim deposits with the pickaxe would solve your problem, but if the animation is not working..... do you have other mods, specifically any animation mods? if you do make sure you have the latest version of fores idles, and use the generate tool in the file to update the animations anytime you add or delete an animation mod or go to a new patch or a new dlc.

just my two cents here... get rid of some of the mods, or if you know how to merge mods together that could also work, since its loading each esp individually that causes skyrim to crap itself. Your mod list is over 60 mods and after the 60ish mark the odds of your game acting crazy increases tremendously. i know, i know... "but i need all of these mods!!" trust me, the experience is more enjoyable and reliable with under 30 mods, by merging or just selecting your 30 favorites.

yea! cookies for everyone! i only have 600 hours, but between work and college time has become such a luxuary that when i het some i drink a brew and watch some tv.. latley game of thrones

Becasue Bethesda has a monoploy on open-world do what you will RPGs. as for coming back and playing an elder scrolls game, you can replay it a lot more then Farcry or Call of Duty befoe it gets dull (except for the "Wolverines!" level in Modern Warfare 2, that was a lot of fun)

Bethesda is going to pump out one more decen/large dlc. Then they get more into working on Fallout 4. fingers crossed

its your game. play it as you will. with great power, comes great responsiblity.

i belive you mean Legions 1-3 were from the heartland, 4-8 were from skyrim, and 9-12 from Hammerfell

When I was completing quests for Master Neloth at Tel Mithyrn, I started he Quest " Old Friends" which lead me to a showdown with Neloth's former apprentice who went crazy after something went wrong with a heart stone. anyway I thought it was a run of the mill " Go here" "kill that person" quest, and while it didn't stray from that formula, it had a totally awesome surprise that I was not expecting. If you get her health down to the point wher she is on her knee, stand close to her and press E) or whatever your activate key is. You play a kill animation that has you steady her in front of you and rip ou the heart stone that is strapped into her body with your bare hands. Was the coolest thing I'd seen in vanilla skyrim in a long time and was a pleasent suprise. Has anyone else done that or have you just slain her with a weapon?

@ NomadicA17 You can destroy the Dark Brotherhood in Skyrim. After you kill that horrible orpahange lady and get "kidnapped" by Astrid, kill Astrid instead of killing one of the three victims. You get the Quest "Destroy the Dark Brotherhood" and sent to see the leader of the Emperor's Bodyguard.

edit.. the new forum lagged and i thought i had to retype all that over. double post

Allow me to elaborate: 1. For the ska e of a truly open world, where you have diffrent options, there should be more mods to allow us (the player) to destroy certain guilds instead of joining them, such as the ablity to wipe out the dark brotherhood instead of becoming a member. 2. For the main questgiver, make it Krev the Skinner, since he is the head of the Silver Hand. On a side note, change the Silver Hnad to be non hostile to the player as long as the player is not a werewolf. That way If the player is exploring and they stumble on a Silver Hand camp they can be given the quest by speaking to a Silver Hand member to be directed to Krev the Skinner. - Even if the player has intialy joined, by talking to the Harbinger, don't flip the hostile swithc until the player triggers the scene with the Silver Hand in the tomb when Farkas transforms in front of the player, at that moment have a new sliver hand member confont the player (since the player is not a werewolf) and demand to know were the player stands, with the Silver Hand or with the Werewolves. If the player accepts then the silver hand relaease him and they kill Farkas. If declined then the questline continues as normal. 3. In regards to being shunned out of Whiterun, Id have to say no, simiply becasue the main citites are the main hubs of questing in skyrim, and being banned/ shunned from a city limits the player to do other quests that they want to do. -With that being said there should be some way of letting the player know that people are aware that the companions are dead, such as the guards tripling any and all bounties you may recieve from droping a weapon on the ground to shouting in public or assaulting someone. thats what i got.

You weren't doing it right. If you're going to level it up without training (which is what you should do regardless. Gold, both now and then, both dropped and could be found in stupid amounts, so if you were out exploring you should have accumulated plenty) , then you should be going against things that aren't going to kill you until you can hit fairly consistently. And then you could also use magic to help boost your skill (or attributes. Or attack stat) so you leveled faster. Yes it took a long time either way, but if you have any idea at all how to appreciate something then when you finally got it up there you were proud you did. i was proud when i levled up that skill suceesfully, but the only grip about the class system was that if when you decided to switch up weapon types (referring to oblivion and morrowind skyrim was fine with me) the game took it at times way beyond the realm of challenging to utterly ridiculous.

ok, let me get this straight, you have a possible solution that could work to get you to Skyrim or Solsthiem until this bug is fixed by Bethesda or the Unofficial Dragonborn patch, and you admit to not have trying every possible thing that you could think of to solve the problem. Go back ingame and try the coc command, if that fails (not because you think so) then come back and yes others have had this problem http://forums.nexusmods.com/index.php?/topic/909976-i-cannot-fast-travel-back-to-skyrim/page__p__7306373&do=findComment&comment=7306373 if the coc command doesn't work (after you've tried it) then double check any and all possible mod conflicts, check game and skse patch version.

what i liked about the class system was that it gave you a boost in whatever attributes and/or skills it specified. That type of a boost at the beginning of a new game was nice, something i wish skyrim did, maybe say your a solider class so you start with a perk point each in heavy armor, block and one-handed, as an example which would help you generate the backstory for your character. On the other hand, once you picked a class and went on your way, five or six levels down the road you want to do something else, then your scerwed. you could pick up an axe even if your major was in blade, but it wasn't viable as you got killed quick and then it took a loonnggg time to level it up enough so you didn't suck,that it was frustrating and not fun. It went from being a challenge of learning a new weapon type to dying no matter what "well if you wanted it, you should have picked it at the beginning" since it got that annoying. In skyrim if i try a two-handed weapon, with my one-handed character, I suck but i suck just the right amount to show that i have to work at it, and make it challenging until i get better. in closing i like the way that allows more breathing room and freedom, so no classes is fine with me.

that would make killing some marks in the Dark Brotherhood too easy...
