    Skyrim Main Quest Overhaul [WIP]

    in Skyrim LE

    Posted

    Hi, Sorry for not replying.

     

    My job searching suddenly went into full flow, from next to no replies to CV to every other one replying. May even have a job by the end of next week (fingers crossed).

    So cant guarantee having time to help any more, which is a shame, but will keep watching the development.

    Skyrim Main Quest Overhaul [WIP]

    in Skyrim LE

    Posted

    If youre still looking for writers I would like to offer my support.

     

    As for an aftermath story, what I've always thought was missing from games like Skyrim is an attack on the player themselves, or what they have striven to build. This was actually what I hoped Dragornborn DLC would be, I hoped Milaak would attack the Player's allies to starve them of support forcing the player to learn the new shouts and maybe find new allies in order to combat the new threat.

    It also struck me that Dragons had previously fought for dominance and to be proven the strongest dragon, surely with Alduin gone one would try to take his place.

     

    For immediate aftermath, I've always thought you were never praised enough for defeating Alduin, maybe thats just my character's ego :P, but lets be honest you've just saved the entire world. You should be popular amongst the populace, particularly the none warrior Nords (being the Dragonborn alone should get you some of that, you're the symbol of the fight against the dragons). The Jarls and nobles should want to affiliate themselves with you, maybe even offer up unmarried sons/daughters to make you family. There would be a lot of politics behind such an event as Aludin's fall. For instance, why send the triumphant Dragonborn on a Test to see if s/he is fit to join the legion/stormcloaks? Surely they'd snap your hand off if you offered your support.

     

    Rambling now, so going to stop myself as I know some of this strays from the main quest lines, but I hope its food for thought.

    Main Quest Idea

    in Skyrim LE

    Posted

    I've put this here because it's not a request, rather I want to see if this idea interests people, maybe enough for people to start making it. If they did I would want to contribute, though I am not a modder, so if I was going to start this would certainly not be the way to.

     

    Anyway the idea.

    Usually in games like this, you are the hero and you have followers or parties that follow you. Recently I've been playing as a new character using Live Another Life and have completely avoided anything to do with the Dragonborn (as much as possible anyway). So I got to wondering, if you could play as a different character and someone else was the Dovahkiin.

     

    I already know, this would be a massive overhaul, but it could be a very interesting way to approach the game. You'd have to have a Dovahkiin NPC and contrive a way for you the player to be dragged into the story. Maybe you'd be a Stormcloak imprisoned with Ulfric and the Dovahkiin, or maybe you're a Whiterun guard at the Tower where the dovahkiin learns his/her power.

     

    Like I said it would be massive, all main quests would have to be overhauled with the Dovahkiin NPC leading the way. They'd have to be rewritten, but in such a way to use the actors voices that already exist. (this is where I think I could get involved, I'm not a modder, but I am a writer). They'd be animated (for example, you'd watch as the Dovahkiin met the grey beards).

     

     

    Any thoughts, like I said this isnt a request, rather a discussion on feasibility/interest. If something came out of it then great, but I am genuinely interested in hypothetical discussion too

    Problems with BBP

    in Skyrim LE

    Posted

    The odd thing is though, I had it all working before. With the exact same setup, it just seemed to suddenly decide it no longer liked it. I got CTD every time i loaded the save game, which stopped as soon as I removed the armour mod.

     

    Maybe I'll just use UNPB for my character and BBP for NPCs.

     

    Cheers

    Problems with BBP

    in Skyrim LE

    Posted

    Hi all,

     

    I'm using sillumlt's UNP Replacer Configuration Package to install UNPB. It's been working fine ever since I first got it, but recently I've been having issues with the BBP. Using the package I've installed:

     

    UNPB Base

    Navesta face/skins/muscle

    Xp32 Skeleton

    BBP 2.2 (also tried 2.4)

     

    Everything works fine with NPCs, they can wear the armour and they get the BBP effects. But when I try equipping my player with a BBP armour I get a CTD. UNPB works though. Does anybody know why this could be?

     

    Oh, btw I'm also using Temptress Vampire Race (with Better vampires).

     

    Thanks!

     

     

    Strange load

    in Skyrim LE

    Posted · Edited by Dice42

    I've recently started a new Skyrim game with Live Another Life. Everything was working fine until I tried to add Better Horses. I tried to load and got a CTD. So I got rid of it and tried again, still got a CTD.

     

    When I try going to an earlier save it does open, but my character has no clothes, no skills/spells (still the correct level), has loads of potions of 'unknown effect' and the wrong colour hair. All the quests I've done have gone save for the initial ones given by LAL and Helgen Reborn. It's as if I have started again but at level 6.

    This is a load error I have never seen before. Trying to rearrange/remove/readd mods to get the latest save to work, but wondered if any had seen this weird load problem before.

    TUTORIAL: REMOVING UNWANTED MAGIC EFFECTS FROM THE PLAYER

    in Skyrim LE

    Posted · Edited by Dice42

    Hi,

    Dragonborn issue: Sometimes when my character is hit (and can be anything, sword, arrow, spell) there is an explosion of tentacles from the ground where my character is standing. I'm not sure what they do, i think they hurt my opponent, either way I find them more irritating than anything else.

    Does anyone know what they are, and if so, how do i get rid of them?

     

    cheers

     

    Edit: think its from Mirrak's robes (though i dont wear them)

    Uninstalling and the NMM

    in Skyrim LE

    Posted

    Hi, just a quick question

     

    I'm now a bit fed up with all the little issues my game has built up, so I want to clean install, clear out a few mods and implement the ones I'm keeping roughly one at a time.

     

    If I uninstall and remove any related skyrim file (including the data folder), will the NMM still have copies of the mod which can then be installed without having to redownload them? My guess is yes, but I want to double check.

     

    Cheers

    Sexy female giants, Part 2

    in Mod Ideas

    Posted

    I've just come onto the nexus to request such a mod. Id think it would need:

     

    Race to look better, maybe more like Nords, just bigger

    Both woman and men

    They should be bigger (giants are too small on skyrim) I think 2.5 scale works well (on normal human character scale)

    Dragonplate/scale UNPB Armour

    in Mod Ideas

    Posted

    Hi,

     

    Wondering if anyone was making/ would make a better Dragon armour for UNP/UNPB/etc..?

    There are lots of great armours for UNP and I have a mod to convert vanilla armours to the bodytype. I'm working on giving my housecarls/stewards a sort of dragon armour uniform (They work for the dragonborn, they all have dragorn amour, fits nicely :D), but the armour doesnt look that great tbh, and whats the point of having a body mod if the armour hides the shape? Not that I'd want it too skimpy, but a little shape and skin wouldnt go a miss ;)

     

    Cheers

    Shadows Offset

    in Skyrim LE

    Posted

    Had a search but couldnt find any fixes pass the stripped shadows.

     

    Recently every shadow is offset from where it should be, my character's shadow for example is cast from the left of the screen rather than from the feet of the character. ANy idea why this might be?, it can be really off putting. They also translate wrong when the camera moves. I can rotate the camera and a large shadow will cast over my stationary character, it's really odd

    Cannot complete Attend Wedding

    in Skyrim LE

    Posted · Edited by Dice42

    Trying to marry Lydia and all stages work up until the 'Attend Wedding Ceremony' "quest".

     

    I attend and the wedding starts, but when it gets to 'I give you both these rings...' and the quest should end, it doesnt. Instead I regain control of my character but the quest remains incomplete. If i talk to anyone they just congratulate me, and lydia just says 'It's our wedding day...'

     

    If i move Mammual (sp?) follows me repeating the 'do you want to marry' question, i can always give an answer but it never completes. He just keeps following me and re-asking the question. Some people just cant take yes for an answer it seems.

     

    Any ideas what the issue is? It was happening yesterday and I have since (having upgraded to win7 64x) reinstalled Skyrim and have minimal mods, none of which should have affected the marriage quest.

     

    EDIT: or if anyone knows a console way of doing the marriage that would be just as good. I've tried setstage, which will bring up attend wedding as complete, but Lydia doesnt seem to get any wife options in speech

     

    Thanks in advance

    CTD at Dawnstar and other places

    in Skyrim LE

    Posted

    Hi guys,

     

    This is a problem I've had for a while, but it seems like it is spreading over my world map. It started north of Dawnstar, towards the sanctuary, I would walk north and enter the area near the sanctuary and without warning or error message the game would CTD. Now the same happens whenever I try to travel to almost anywhere in the Hold. I've continued playing, just avoiding Dawnstar, but now a few other places seem to crash, such as near the Bloodlet Throne near Riften.

     

    I've literally just tested a theory and have managed to enter Dawnstar, even get to the sanctuary with a new game save. Which suggests to me my save game is corrupt, is there anyway to rescue it? Otherwise I'm very much considering using the console to speed my way back to where I was with a new game save, though that means retracing nearly 100 hours of game play. So obviously not ideal

    Player Transparency and lighting issue

    in Skyrim LE

    Posted

    Hi guys, wondering if you could help

     

    Recently I've started noticing that my player occasionally becomes slightly transparent, mostly I notice around the shoulders. I can see the amulet she is wearing through her and a few details (mostly scenery object edges. Any ideas what could be causing this? (I do a few mods on: better females, no helmet, skimpy armour)

     

    Other issue, I've always had, though i did put the first mod (better females) on very soon after starting the game. When near light sources like fire places or similar all characters seem blocky, almost as if they were made from lego, i think it's shadowing effects, as though there are small ridges across the contours of the body casting a small shadow.

     

    Any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance
