I'm doing the official Quest Creation walkthrough, and get stuck on this page very early in: http://www.creationkit.com/Bethesda_Tutorial_Creating_an_Actor When I go to create the Bendu Actor, I don't have any options available in the Race dropdown. It's completely blank. I also don't have any options available in the Outfits dropdown in the Inventory tab, so that might be related. I haven't changed any directories/locations with any of my files, everything is set up as default from a clean Steam download of both Skyrim and the Creation Kit. If anyone could help out with this I'd really appreciate it! I bought a second copy of Skyrim (originally played on Xbox) just to teach myself to mod, and it'd be a real bummer if I couldn't get past this. :\ Haven't been able to find any answers from normal Google searches. Thanks!

@FishFiend: I do plan on picking up the scripting tools, particularly in relation to quest building, combat, and NPC interactions. I don't have any work to link to, so I guess I'm unfortunately an unknown quantity at this point. I know that doesn't sound very appealing! @Budz42: Oh, thanks for this list! I didn't see this before, this should definitely be helpful. Awesome! @blazingsentinal: I'll look at it, but unfortunately I'm not familiar with that book series. Really hope you find someone great!

Hey everyone - please let me know if this is in the wrong spot, I couldn't seem to find a better place for it. I'm a long-time RPG player looking to joining a team that's creating a robust, sort of "stand alone" mod for Skyrim. For example I'm interested in projects creating a new town or series of dungeons with their own questlines. Mainly I'd like to provide support to any teams working on adding "content" to the game. My strength is level and narrative design. I have some experience with scripting and other modding toolsets (NWN) but have never done any modding for any of TES games. I'm working through the available tutorials to expand my knowledge, and I'd love to tackle the smaller (and more tedious) aspects of a larger-scale project. I have worked on many game projects before, so I'm familiar with what it takes to be a team player. :) If you know of a project that a newbie like me could contribute to, please get in touch. Also, if there's a better place to be posting this, I'll be happy to relocate!
