Ho-lee-she-it! A day early no less. To the Nexus I go!

No worries. I understand how life can get in the way sometimes. Be right back, gonna get some aloe for that burn.

I am most intrigued. :D

Alright. That works.

Alright cool. I have tons of weapons and ammo to give them so it's no big deal. Are they each getting a unique outfit or something? I don't mind giving them an outfit as well if I have to.

Like a boss. I know all about Payday 2. One of my coworkers loves that game.

Well I'd say that's a successful Dark Souls II adventure. That mod time frame tho. I definitely understand the "maybe" part, as I'm no stranger to working in retail during the holidays and going into my 7th year.

Just in time for Halloween. :)

I guess you could say that this is "Good news everyone!"

Woo! Fur textures! :)

No worries mate. The way I see it, you deserve a little treat for workin' on teh ponies. :tongue:

Ooh I like this armor glow mesh idea.

I concur.

Well then I guess the old saying "form follows function" applies well here, heh. It's a shame about the Nexus glitch. I check this thread regularly though, so it doesn't bother me much, but I can see how that would cause issues on your end. Okay cool. Language barriers aside, I like Type 6 because I use the Daughter of Ares race which uses that body. However, I'm perfectly fine with the ponies using the Type 3, as that is the most popular body and there have been so many armors made/modified for it. I'm glad to see a fix for the "nefarious neck gap" too.

Regarding Celestia's "new look" I think it's an excellent example. Regarding the double power sword great stance, it indeed looks stupid...bordering on ridiculous. :)

I can get on board with that as well.

Very nice.

The way I see it, anything can happen in the 204 years following a nuclear apocalypse.

Regarding the subject of release, how many votes for one way or the other are you taking into account before you make your final decision? So far I seem to be the only one who would rather not have an early release but that's fine by me if it comes down to that.

Alright I'll give my thoughts on this, since I've been following both the original mod and this forum from the beginning. 1: So this means that the race is there but if they were to be put into the game via the G.E.C.K. then they would just be NPC's wandering around and unable to be spoken to? 2: That's fine. Sine the "missing head" issue has been fixed, it's easy enough to just give them any outfit from my inventory like I would with a vanilla companion. Do they all use the same body type? And if so, what body type do they use? I'm guessing Type 3 or a slightly modified version of Type 3 which is what the original race mod uses if I'm not mistaken. 3: This is also not an issue for me as I don't mind giving them a weapon and ammo for it like I would any other companion, then take it away along with any ammo related to it before I switch ponies. 4: You say at the moment, which I'm assuming that you have yet to hear back from a few people to know for sure if there are any more? 5: If it's anything like the follower mod you made long ago for the original race mod, it wasn't terribly difficult or confusing to navigate. If it has been tweaked/changed from that setup, I'm not sure of an alternative method that would be better. 6: So are there basically Vault Boy icons used as placeholders or do they just show up as "Error: File not found" or whatever it says? I really did like your choices for the custom icons that you showed earlier in this thread though. 7: I agree that the original style of the textures looks bland in comparison to your new texture work, but I was able to get used to it due to using the original race mod for so many game hours. My only issue is the occasional bug that fills any indoor area with some elongated meshes that completely obstruct my view in 3rd person, so I would have to either switch to first person view for the entire time or quit to title, then reload my save. This caused the issue to go away for awhile until it came back at a random time later on. Are there still many ponies that use the original texture work? If so that's fine, I'm just curious. 8&9: Alright that's cool. 10: I hardly ever fire a companion so this wouldn't be an issue for me. I have discovered West Side but I don't fast travel as it breaks immersion for me. So is this home empty until you fire a pony and they go there or is it where all the ponies physically wander/stand around as a kind of "holding cell" until switched out for others? 11: That's great about the dialogue and I'm perfectly fine with the lack of voice acting. I've played plenty of quests where there wasn't any and it didn't bother me, and I have an NCCS companion who is not voiced so it's no big deal. Besides, Willow and Niner both do enough talking to make up for it. I am intrigued by the use of smaller eyes for the head models. Regarding the resource usage, I'm running a fairly beastly machine so I should have no problems there. Bottom line: I'd be alright with a release of this mod in its current state, but I'd prefer waiting some more to allow you to fix/change the things that are really bugging you about it before releasing it. Perhaps releasing the mod in its current state with updates later on would be the best of both worlds, but if I recall correctly, you have stated how you don't like releasing things in increments, so that's not really an option I guess.

Well someone's brutally honest.

Maybe he is, maybe he isn't. Can you take the suspense?

Wait so have you already beaten Dark Souls I or did you just start with Dark Souls II?

Multitasking like a boss. :)

Hmm, I never really thought about it before but you're right, Milkyway and Rarity do have very similar mane styles. Learn something new every day.
