Advice/Suggestions/Opinions On New Tombstone Mod

Hello, I am working on a new mod to add unique epitaph's to each tombstone in the Imperial City. So far all is going well but I am just curious as to whether you all think it would be better to use a MessageBox in the Script or just Message. Also the current scripts I am attaching to each activator I have made Is as follows:

 

Scriptname ACustomTombstoneScript02

 

Begin OnActivate

 

MessageBox "(Unique Epitaph Here lol)"

 

End

 

I am hand placing the base and top of each stone in the exact location of original stones using the same nif's. Tedious but *Shrug* Only downside is I already have around 50 individual new scripts and activator objects. Also trying to use names that fit races. Big thanks to Silgrad Tower's Name Generator.

Just curious as to whether that is the best approach or not. Any ideas/Input welcome. Going for an immersive feel here and as it is my first attempt at a mod all advice is welcome. Have about 50 stones done so far I will include shots below thanks a ton in advance for feedback, input, advice, etc... :thanks:

That looks awesome! I would definitely download that. But watch out, werent there a few tombstones which were also switches to open doors for some quest? The one I believe is called the Unhonest Merchant or something like that. The one from IC were there is the merchants union and the new guy.. You go into the tomb and get ambushed.

I believe so, but the good thing is the tombstone will... SHOULD Be marked as a quest item if such is the case so It should be fine =) Will take a little while to finish but thank you for commenting on it and if you have any ideas or suggestions for the epitaphs or whatever just let me know :biggrin:

By The Way, Will anyone use this mod? It is designed mainly for a more immersive Oblivion. :whistling:

 

Are you kidding? I can't wait til it's all said and done, you'll get a huge kudos from me on it.

 

I loved the cemetary in the shivering isles, where people you killed appeared on the tombstones with their funny epitaphs after you killed them. Have you looked at those scripts it might be neat to add a few like that, like that guy in "unfriendly competition" perhaps?

In The Future lol, first mod gonna keep it nice and simple :) After I get all the kinks worked out and the big picture put in place then maybe... :shrug:

 

I'm sure you'd get help to make it work perfectly, save the idea til you're nearly finished. It would make this a true standout project.
