Slawter500 Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 Nothing wrong with idea guys. If there was a very talented modder who didn't have a very good imagination, then an idea guy is born :P Seriously i know of mods that have started this way.

LoginToDownload Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 Sounds like cell-designing would be a huge amount of work, and Inuhead would be doing that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No no no no!~ not at all im really exited to work on this im doing voices and telling the scripter what to script telling the blender what to blend lol and many more!This guy is awesome... Don't forget what you're asking...From what you've told that is at least a year's work...I doubt anyone would do that.But then again, you never know...But I would lower down things a bit...50 new weapons and armors? C'mon...You'd be creating a new game/..it would be 3 years of work..and I'm not kidding...These things aren't 'just' created with a few mouseclicks :). Mods this huge never finish in the first place..the time it takes will take down the ones working on it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haha loool :P I'd agree with Pronam here, finish that underground worldspace you were talking about would take long enough, then add those towns, and maybe one or two armours and a single quest. Then you could release it and add more to it afterwards. Start small, get bigger. EDIT: that would still take about a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grmblf Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 hi there! I know it may sounds redundant but really I think you don't even glimpse how hard is to put out such a big mod like the one you're describing or you're too much optimistic about it. In any case I'm not here to confront you nor to tell you how to do things, but maybe you could appreciate a few tips that can make your life as modder a bit easier. If you don't, then, simply ignore them. - first off, I'd suggest you focus your mod to a specific aim. What's the final purpouse of creating this mod? Is it simply creating the biggest mod that ever existed and claim it as yours? or is it creating a new environment that isn't found in Oblivion (nor in any other existing mod) with a unique atmosphere? perhaps certain environment is ok and you simply want to add/expand some quests on that ambience? are you going to re-create a new race or culture that must have unique items? what would be more important, usable items for the player or NPC's to interact with? Can you use default OB objects instead (weapons, characters, buildings, caves, etc) or you MUST use something different that hasn't been done?I'm pretty sure you'd choose doing everything, but thus the mod remains unfocused (if that's the word) and with no specific goal is hard to go further in any direction. - Take priorities: In case everything you want can't be done, state what's a must have and what's dispensable. This will save you a lot of work that may end up not being used, (and that's frustrating when happens), so focusing your goals and sorting them by priority you could get a clear what-to-do list that you could follow in order. Working in blocks is easier as you don't have to remember everything you have done at once, and also because in fact you're ending something, wich makes the averall process can be measured by real things instead of a simple percentage. Since now we only know it has to be underground. - Plan your work and use common sense to do it, so no single previous stage of develompent has to be repeated, ie. you build a town up on a mountain, and after that you realize that in fact according to the quest it should be instead in a plains. Of course you can then edit the worldspace, but we'd saved a little time doing it before. - Write it all down! so often we forget things that afterwards appear to be important. And usually big and original ideas look better in one's head than once are written, it's just because there's always a lot of things we don't think of before writting'em. Also, since humans don't have (yet) telepathic powers, writting down the stuff is the way you can let others know your thoughts and ideas and that's specially important if you want them to contribute. man I'm sry if this has been too long, I'm not good at short advices :pinch: Anyway, these are not rules that have to be followed nor something similar, these are just opinions I've ended making up with based on my experience so maybe they're not as useful to you as they are to me but at least I think you should consider them. good luck with this mod!

Slawter500 Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 It'd take more than two weeks for a town :P But at any rate good luck to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
