  1. DreamBurrow's Regal Assassin Armor (www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/24342/) is my favorite armor mod, but although it's 2K it seems a lower resolution in game. The chainmail in the front, the sleeves and the scarf in particular... Is anyone willing to do a retexture please? :turned:

  2. However, the ultimate bottom line remains: Just because you couldn't post a comment doesn't necessarily mean you are personally being censured.

     

    It's the man trying to hold you down. It's so obvious OP is the sole purpose that the thread was removed because the site saw him writing his post and deleted the entire thread before he could even post in it.

    The Nexus is a conscious being with the powers of foresight.

     

    I'm sending in the thought police.

     

    VERY funny comments. I thought my first post was clear, but it looks like people here are more interested in ridicule and personal attacks. My post was simply meant to defend what that modder intended to say, because I shared his views. I never said anything about myself being censored.

     

    Anyway now it looks like his mod is back online with the following notice:

     

    Admin have allowed this mod to stay with conditions of course. Comments will be disabled.

    If they wish for me to remove it immediately, i will comply with no questions asked.

    To everyone who has PM me, thank you very much for your kind support, i may not be able to reply to everyone, but know that i appreciate it very much.

     

    Anyway please go on, I would love to see you twist my words again. Have fun!

  3. I second what kingtitan said,the nexus staff removes posts that have the potentional to turn into a flame/troll war and considering the way you speak about "Bethe$da" as it would be a sin to want to make money, no wonder it was removed.

     

    Except for the little fact that as I said I didn't post any comment...

     

    Did any of you read what I said? The mod was made "by Phyber", to "raise awareness", I wanted to post a comment but I couldn't. There was "no abusive language or fighting words". Hope it's clearer now.

  4. I was going to post a comment on a mod (can't remember its name) made by Phyber to raise awareness of the direction in which Bethe$da and the rest of the gaming industry is pointing with MMOs... and when I press the submit button, *poof*, the mod and its thread are completely gone, zilch, nada.

    There was no abusive language or fighting words, so that's clearly not the reason. Looks like you're not allowed to have an opinion over here unless it conforms to everyone else. NexusMods is not different from Beth's forums after all.

    Oblivion Graphics Extender (OBGE) if you feel like adding experimental graphic extenders and effects: http://code.google.com/p/oblivion-graphics-extender/downloads/list

     

    tes4lodgen (easy to use LOD generator), OR tes4ll + tes4qlod + tesannwyn (better and more complete, but command line programs)

  6. If Skyrim wasn't such a dull province, there were more side quests and NPCs(also more variety in side quests...) and if the faction questlines were longer and better, Skyrim would be much better and way more immersive.

     

    That's the point, I think... that's why my hopes for Skyrim are moderate-to-low :confused:

     

    Imagine this: a couple of years from now we'll have LOTS of mods to choose from (mostly body replacers and bouncing boobs stuff probably, but that's another story), however we're stuck with a monotonous province (some like this sort of TES/Fallout crossover, I don't), and we can't improve NPC interaction and questlines either due to the lack of sufficiently developed voiced dialogs.

     

    OTOH I reinstalled Oblivion and a couple of gigs of mods and am enjoying it immensely :happy:

  7. The movement issues were gone, but the player only moved at half the speed he was moving with the gamepad. Makes me wonder if the config for xpadder has run turned on somehow? I don't know if Oblivion had a run feature.

     

    Yes, by default the left shift key (or toggling caps lock) on the keyboard is used to run.

  8. I've thought all along that Bethesda really missed an opportunity to make Skyrim a contender for best game ever. Quests are boring, choices have little or no consequences and many of the skill improvement tasks start to feel pretty mundane. I never played Oblivion so I can't compare it to that but I did play FO3 and FONV. I think both were much more immersive and had a lot more substance. Yes, if I had to put my finger on something I would say Skyrim lacks substance. I think I was hoping for Baldur's Gate I and II with awesome graphics/scenery but all I got was the scenery. I'm still playing Skyrim and will finish it. Probably more than once... but only because of the mods. The scenery must still be enough for me and I haven't seen a lot of it yet.

     

    IMO... TES4:OB > FO3 > FNV > TES5:SK

     

    I can totally relate to your comparison with Baldur's Gate...

  9. Skyrim was great fun and was more addictive than any known drug... but as soon as I ran out of things to do interest in the the game went plop. With Oblivion, I was able to keep creating characters and trying new stuff - somehow, its replayability was so much higher. I'm not sure if it's Oblivion's mods - I didn't actually use that many, but the ones that I did use I really enjoyed.

     

    I agree, and I'm starting to think I should reinstall Oblivion after all. I'm spending week after week trying to customize Skyrim a little, enhancing playability and applying bugfix after bugfix (currently struggling with a shadow striping epidemic)... and I just cannot shake the feeling that many things about this game feel unfinished.

     

    Anyway there are a couple of very good mods to improve Skyrim's bleak mood: "Imaginator" (my favorite) and "Ultra Realistic World Lighting" - both have zero fps impact and can be used to enhance color balance and saturation, lighting and contrast, although Imaginator is more realistic and customizable.
