  1. >Simplest version of this mod, would be to allow replacement of limbs You know, reading this, I think a mod that lets you full on play as a sort of custom robot with this system would be amazing, too.
  2. https://imgur.com/gallery/hCFZz So that's what I got so far. I'm not a coder, that's not my thing. I've been scouring the forums, reddit and some other sources to find out as much as I can about this. Excuse me if this doesn't make sense, but... so far what I've got is some stuff about idle anims and such which I don't understand, powerarmorHUD / g_powerarmorHUD nodes, and the issue of "so we know how to get the thing to actually display; simply add the PA perk (0001f8a9) and now you have a PA UI!'. The issue is, it doesn't display. Well, I figured that out by smashing my head into a wall for a good hour. I added the PADashPipboyScreen.nif to the Camera node of the first person Skeleton.nif. Above is what I got. So it seems to display, I can control it. I got it to actually get on screen by editing the axis of the screen mesh in nifskope and simply placing it in front of where the camera is. Oddly enough when I click around it only rotates the selected inventory item regardless of where my mouse goes (I've clicked everywhere), so I imagine there's something else to getting mouse controls to work, but as it is right now it technically works. So obviously my question/request now is... Can the blur be removed? Can it be stretched to fit the screen? Can mouse control be enabled so that clicking is accurate? I think that may have something to do more with the .swf or something else, but I know practically nothing here. Optionally, can a script be tied into a mod for this that auto-removes the pipboy entirely *and* automatically adds the respective perk to the player when installed?

Obviously my experience using the site. Kind of a pointless question, don't you think? EDIT: Sorry if that came off as hostile, by the way. Didn't intend that. Why is that relevant? Obviously no experience, and average knowledge about the topic. Yes, I would, actually. It's a very hyperbolic expression to get across a general idea. It's like someone calling a moderator who deletes posts for being in the wrong forum the "fun police". Obviously that person is not a member of law enforcement. Obviously they're not trying to kill your fun. It's an exaggerated expression, just not on the same level as this. As for the Godwin's law bit, I don't see how that's relevant at all, but it's nice to know. I haven't seen as much moderator presence on the Nexus lately, so fair enough. Fair enough, though I personally disagree with a mod author having the ability to censor free speech simply because they can't handle it. Nobody should feel like they can't share their thoughts (so long as it's constructive). We may just have to agree to disagree due to a difference in core opinions on the topic. Honestly? I think I kind of just had a brainfart while typing. Ranting while tired is confusing. The point before that is what I had intended, I think I just stopped thinking for a moment and contradicted it like a moron. :( I'll edit it with a strikethrough and a reason why but leave it so I don't look like I'm editing s#*! out of my post for the sake of looking less stupid. See, here's my issue with that system. Mod authors seem to have difficulty actually tagging their mod, mostly because it comes down to a matter of opinion with some genres of mod. Bringing up skimpy mods again, some people may find a type of robe that shows the character's thighs and cleavage but covers the rest and isn't clearly 'sexualized' gear (IE something like BDSM or clearly intended to look like a sexy armor set) to be fine, whereas others may consider to be super skimpy. Thus, the mod author won't tag that as skimpy and it won't get filtered out. Vice versa, a mod that genuinely *isn't* considered to be skimpy by some will be tagged as skimpy and will be filtered out, leaving you oblivious to it ever having existed. The only way I know how to solve this issue is to block a mod author, and that's more of a band-aid than a solution, and, on top of that, if that mod author suddenly does a 180 and releases something right up your alley, you won't even know. If there's something I'm missing here, please let me know as this issue has been my single biggest issue with the Nexus for years. Yeah, and I'm sure a lot of people *dislike* it too, but because it's what's popular, it's what people will create if they're looking for recognition. See: social media in general. You have to at least acknowledge that a fair amount of a Mod Author sharing their mods is for the recognition of it. They could just as keep it to themselves and upload the mod to a private area in case it's lost. First off, I want to clarify something. When I say a "thumbs down" type system, I don't mean a system where you click a button similar to an endorse button and it counts towards any sort of true effect on the mod (IE having it less likely to be hidden, hurting its chances of going to the hot files, or becoming a top file, etc). Literally no effect whatsoever on that for the mod. I mean a system that's displayed similar to "Total Downloads", which is there *purely* as a visual statistic. Nothing more. The positive effect? People who disagree with the mod and would like to voice their opinion can do so, even if they're unconstructive about it. On top of being able to simply block an author, I feel like this'd cause a lot of the older, more salty people of the community who aren't happy with it ease up a bit now that they have a way to actually voice what they feel. Being the Nexus, I figure it'd probably be best to allow the mod author to *hide* this statistic, as I know it'd discourage some modders. It'd just be a nice feature, is all. As for the analogy, if it affected the statistics of that article and it was a well-written article with effort put into it, sure, that's shitty. But the key point there is if it effects the statistics. If it doesn't, you have *every right* to downvote that article. Why? Because other people who dislike those types of articles will do the same, and newer people writing articles, if they want to, will potentially write an article that appeals to what people want, thus making more people happy. The football fans will keep their articles (As that's just a silly statistic and they enjoy doing what they do), and the other writers who want to appeal more to what seems popular (or are just seeking recognition) will write the rugby/cricket articles. Hopefully that actually *explained* what I'm trying to say, as I'm starting to feel as if I'm just bad at illustrating my point (and I don't mean that in a hostile way, btw.) So rather than people having a (optionally removable) harmless way of expressing distaste without actually attacking anyone, you'd rather they are completely silent and thus the opinion of what is popular never really shifts? I mean, really. How long has skimpy armor mods been a popular thing for Beth games? Don't you think, in all these years, the general opinion has shifted a bit? Yet nobody is allowed to express this, and thus that's still one of the most popular genre of mods on the Nexus, so much so that for Skyrim, it's almost difficult to find non-skimpy mods (if you, like me, have issues with overly specific tastes, borderline OCD-level type s#*! where the smallest detail can ruin it) because your choices are to endlessly wade through thousands, maybe even tens of thousands of mods looking for something, or filter out a lot of these options, most likely filtering out a potential choice for yourself. That kind of loops back to my previous point, which, again, the conclusion of that is "Maybe I'm doing something wrong, and if I am, let me know.". I agree the *quality* of the mods would not improve, or if it did, it'd be marginal at best. I'm saying that I think a genre shift could occur, or at least more genres will become a bit more popular and thus everyone will be happy. Though, again, I think we'll just have to agree to disagree. Ultimately it's your site and what I say doesn't really matter, you'll run it how you want, and that's fine. I just like being able to voice my opinion to *hopefully* see change implemented, even if that opinion could actually be harmful (and yes, I do understand how the concept of downvoting mods could be abused). It's like how venting to a friend can help you feel better. Just a bit salty with seeing the state of Nexus mods in general over the years. It seems like some things improve, like the Nexus moderators (Which I'll admit, I was wrong about. They HAVE improved, I just haven't noticed it as I don't go out of my way to look for it, which is, in itself, a testament to how it's improved.), while at the same time some things stagnate (Like the current popular genre of mods, which has remained the same for a very long time)

TL;DR means "Too Long, Didn't Read". It's used on the internet to paraphrase a long-winded statement. That was called a "reply". You should use that thing called Google. It'll help you understand these things better.

Did it hide mods or anything? I figured having it more as a background thing that doesn't effect mod visibility or anything, just allows people to display their opinion freely. Shouldn't negatively impact the mod.

Finland is a country. Being born in Finland does not make you a "Finnish" race person. That's called "Nationality", not race. Good try tossing out the race card because you have no valid arguement, though. You tried. Pat yourself on the back. And yeah, it probably is cultural, though I don't know much about Finnish culture, so I could be totally wrong. Still, the Nexus is meant to be culturally neutral, and thus that kind of attitude isn't justifiable. :/

Basically the founding principle of the Nexus. Some of you guys seem to have forgotten that. I'll be moderating these comments as necessary. There's a difference between hating on something and criticizing. The Nexus is fond of running a borderline Nazi-Germany type system (in my experience) where if you don't circle-jerk a mod 100%, and instead appreciate the mod but offer *CONSTRUCTIVE* Criticism (IE: Good mod, but I have a problem with <X> and would recommend <Y> as a solution), you're likely to get bashed and *potentially* even banned. Modders turning their comments into safespaces because any sort of constructive criticism "triggers" them is pretty pathetic. I understand not wanting your comments to devolve into unrewarding shithole where you go to to simply offer criticism and report bugs and such and never *thank* the author, instead having it as a mostly positive place, but the way the Nexus handles comment sections is just a complete joke. Punishment for being constructive is dumb. Punishment for being a shithead who bashes someone or unconstructively bashes the mod is dumb. (EDIT: Brainfart, contradicted what I had just said after stating what I had meant. My bad. Leaving it there with a strikethrough to indicate what part it was, though.) I honestly feel like a sort of "thumbs down" system would really help to fix this problem. If people disagree with a mod *so much* and are so sick and tired of seeing that type of mod, they're going to want their voices heard. I think you'd be surprised to hear how many people hate some genres of mods but *can't* voice their opinions on the matter for fear of the banhammer, thus they're stuck in a repetitive cycle of seeing hated mods endlessly and other modders seeing these mods "doing well" because nobody bashes them, thus deciding to make those types of mods (See: Skimpy armor). If people could simply click a "thumbs down" button to express distaste (and if they commented, the "thumbs down" icon would be attached to that comment to indicate what their opinion is) while not worrying about punishment, the quality of mods would greatly improve and the community would become a lot less tense overall. Then again, from the years I've been on the Nexus I've seen it as being this type of horrifying "forced smile" type thing. You have to be positive. You have to be appreciative. Gotta keep that up, can't actually be honest with anything or you could be punished. Also, sorry about the oversized rant. Gonna add a TL;DR for convenience. TL;DR People need to learn the difference between useless criticism and constructive criticism. Being able to constructively criticize a mod (respectfully) would be very useful and would help to improve the quality of mods on the Nexus, and, in my opinion, help some of the "salty Nexus vets" feel a bit better as they can finally voice their opinions without feeling like they might be persecuted for it. A simple "Thumbs Down" type system, with the thumbs down symbol tied to your comment, I think would help to fix this and would greatly help to show the general consensus on some types of mods, something I feel is woefully lacking due to the fear of being punished.
  8. No clue if this is the proper section. If not, I do apologize :( I didn't see any "Request" topics, though I may very well have overlooked it. Anyways, my request is for the "Foreign Garb" from Bloodborne. To sum it up, it's a victorian era Waistcoat with suit pants and a cloak. It may not *COMPLETELY* fit into Skyrim, but I personally think it'd look awesome. Anyone else? Relevant link: http://bloodborne.wiki.fextralife.com/Foreign+Set Pic is on the bottom. It's a bit blurry, but it gives off the general feel. Female version welcome, too! :)
  9. I was fighting a group of bandits again (I play on master, use SkyRE, and have only light armor.). I saw the bandit running at me, and he charged me, lifted his blade for the power attack, and I ran to the right in an attempt to dodge. NOPE! He followed me... He somehow rotated himself despite his forward momentum and hit me. WAT. Any idea if it's possible to make it so when an NPC Uses a power attack, they don't lock onto you and follow you, rather they go straight ahead, giving you a chance to dodge?
  10. So, I'm trying to reskin the female journeyman robes to make the 'skirt' part of it transparent, effectively making it a normal outfit. However, whenever I use the traditional *Select area and hit delete*, which works on almost every other outfit ('Cept for the Silencer's vestments armors), It doesn't do anything ingame. SO, I tried applying a mask to it. Nope, nothing. I know at one point I got it to be an 'opaque transparent', basically where it was invisible, but opaque. Blocked my legs and such, leaving a void there. I know I didn't make the legs transparent, because if I tried to look up the skirt (Pervert mode, GO!), then I could see the legs. Anyways, my main reasoning for doing this is to modify the 'Silencer's Vestments' robes, thanks for reading! x3
  11. Well, my dad does this ALL the time IRL. For the most part, people who do this are 'just kidding'. Hell, my dad LOVES our dog... but he doesn't show it. On topic; The mod can probably be done via just removing the dialogue options that hate on dogs. Though, adding new ones would be possible, they'd probably be silent.
  12. Erm, I think you meant to post that in the FNV Section, right?
  13. http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/6002 Be careful, it's very glitchy... but it's what you were looking for. :D
  14. I believe you can do this in the creation kit. You can replace the vanilla armors with 'slotless' armors, if you want to potentially mess things up, or make yourself custom armors. You'd simply open up the CK, go to armors, find the armor you want; For example, iron. Right click > Edit Find the list of slots. "Head, Upper Body, etc." Simply unselect ALL of the slots. Bam, your armor takes up no slots. I'm not sure if this would clip, but now you can atleast have armor whilst wearing clothes. As for actually wearing the armor under your clothing, I'd assume the best tactic would be to take the custom / vanilla armor, and make a second version. Version 1: Armor under clothes. Delete the mesh / Texture so it's completely invisible. Version 2: Armor. Leave the mesh and such, this basically being for when you aren't wearing clothes ontop of your armor. Please excuse the wall of text. I get really indepth when I try to explain things... that and I'm reaaaaaaaaaally tired.
  15. http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/30092/ http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/4020 Bam! Those should keep you covered. Not sure if they're incompatible, but I saw them earlier today. Didn't install them myself but I probably will.
