Skyrim Modding Tutorials

[Mattiewagg]

Added some new posts and fixed some issues with the site homepage. The site itself is complete now, though of course I'll still be adding posts to the blogs.

Added a poll I'd like you to answer, if you've got the time. I'm thinking about including "guilds" so people of a certain type can gather, for modders to find. Since there's already a voice actors thread here, though, it might just be better to post on the Nexus Forums. You tell me. I've already made the Level Designers of Skyrim thread (if you're a level designer, please check it out and think about adding your resume), but I'm thinking about making a Mesh and Texture Creators of Skyrim thread.

 

The second question is what you'd like to see next. I'm currently working on 2 new modding tutorials/articles:

 

Screenshots and Trailers: Skyrim Modding Article (about how to take good screenshots to show off your mod).

A Comprehensive Guide to Voice Acting: Skyrim Modding Tutorial (A complete guide on voice acting well, importing into the CK, converting, and more. The first (that I've seen) tutorial that covers the process from start to finish.)

 

The third question is whether or not I should reorder my skyrim mod reviews to be more organized. Right now they're just a lot of paragraphs broken up by some empty lines. I was thinking about reordering them to look like this:

 

Mod Summary/Mod Name/Mod Author - the first paragraph, so the reader can get a sense of whether or not they actually want to read it.

Mod Version tested/bugs/compatibility stuff - the second paragraph, so the reader can skip the review if the mod tested conflicts with one of their mods

Big Description - a more full description of the mod, completely unbiased

Pros - the fourth paragraph, about all the good stuff in the mod

Cons - the fifth paragraph, about all the bad stuff in the mod

Conclusion - wrapping it up, my opinions on the mod

Gallery/Pictures - some pictures of the mod in action, if applicable (there would still be some other pictures sprinkled throughout the review)

 

So if you could answer those questions, that would be great. Even just checking out Skyrim MW would be great, if you haven't already.

I'm going to introduce something new to the site - allowing other modders to write tutorials. My full reasons and an explanation of the process can be found here, but if you're interested then you can PM me or email me at matthiaswagg@gmail.com.

 

Thanks!
