  1. .: Introduction :.

    Hey everyone! I've been working on a content mod for Skyrim over the past few months and I thought it's time to let people know about it. It's not yet finished but it's getting there. A lot of content is ready but a lot of it isn't. The mod is very much based on exploration, discovering epic and beautiful locations, finding the secrets of the island and uncovering ancient mysteries.

    I will be updating this thread as progress happens, as well as showing new screenshots.

    .: Setting :.

    The mod is set on a remote island off the coast of Skyrim. It used to be a small mining colony due to the island being rich in ebony. However, as time went by, the miners started falling ill and it was soon believed that the black ore was cursed by the undead from the ancestral tombs that exist across the island. The miners and their families burned down their village and left back to Skyrim, never to return.

    Nowadays, the island is still mostly uninhabited, but groups of bandits have found the island to be the perfect hiding place from the authorities of Skyrim and other provinces.

    The island is also believed to hold grandiose treasures but no one has been able to find them, or haven't been able to return alive to tell about them.

    .: Features :.

    These are the planned features for the mod when it is finished.

    ~ Beautiful new island roughly the size of Falkreath Hold ~

    ~ 8 new dungeons of varying sizes ~

    ~ 9 points of interest ~

    ~ New quests ~

    ~ Fully navmeshed and voice-acted ~

    .: Progress :.

    - The island's overworld is entirely finished.

    - The island is 40% navmeshed.

    - 3 dungeons are entirely finished and navmeshed.

    .: Potential Problems :.

    There are several problems that I can see that will most certainly slow finishing the mod down. First of all, I am terrible at scripting, and due to this I wouldn't say no to some outside help if anyone is willing to become part of this project. However, I won't be taking just anyone. You and I have to 'click' if we're going to work together.

    Second problem I'm seeing is the distant land (or LOD). I have some experience on this but very little, and even with tutorials I haven't been able to do it 100% right. I haven't tried it yet for this project and will as soon as I am sure that the island is as I want it to be.

    .: Finally :.

     

    Finally, I wish people would get somewhat interested in this project as that would be incredibly motivating to try and finish the mod faster. Also, to overcome problems. So if you're interested, please leave a comment and if you have a question, all you have to do is ask and I'll answer :)

    You can also follow me in tumblr here: http://sinathor.tumblr.com/. I sometimes post updates on my mod progress there, as well as other stuff (related to games, game development and music) if you're interested.

    .: Screenshots :.

    Here are some WIP screenshots of the mod. Please note that these do not reflect the quality of the final version, and please note that there is no distant land at this moment.

  2. Hey everyone!

     

    I am terribly sorry in advance if this has been answered somewhere already, but after an extensive search, I can't seem to find an answer to this anywhere, so I'll ask it here.

     

    So my quest mod is nearing its completion, and it adds a pretty large island to the game. Now, my question is, how can I make the player access the map of my worldspace when selecting map on the menu?

     

    Thanks in advance!

     

    Edit: Typo.

  3. Hey everyone!

     

    I started up CK today again and started working on a quest, and later I realised that my render view couldn't load adjacent cells to the one I was in. This is the first time this has happened and I have no idea what is causing this to happen. Have I switched some option somewhere accidentally or what? I've tried everything that came to my mind.

     

    Here's a picture of the problem in case I couldn't explain it clearly.
