goranga Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 (edited) I have this new mod in preparation. It will allow you to form any kind of relationship with other NPCs in Oblivion. Some of those relationships are: friendship, follower, lover, romantic relationship, marriage, customer (prostitution, renter etc) etc. There will be other features that resemble "the real life". Features in this mod will be:- pregnancy and having kids- kids will grow up- being able to bring "people" to your house- night life and socialising with NPCs- renting properties- jobs- friends will help you solve some problem that you might have- you will be able to make some sect (or guild) and have a small army of followers- in interatction with some objects, player might catch some disease- need to eat, sleep etc- there will be also features from my old mods, but the system of interaction will be different... This mod is in "concepts making phase", so every input is welcome. If you have some interesting suggestions, please post them.

Majic_12 Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 This sounds like a good mod, especially the eating/sleeping part of it (I'm guessing drinking also comes under this category). Realism FTW! This should help me reduce the number of mods I use. :thumbsup: As for suggestions, any chance of being able to get drunk on alcohol, to the point of passing out? How about getting sick from eating too much at once? Since you mentioned socialising, will interacting with NPCs in different ways cause you to gain or lose respect with them?

How about getting sick from eating too much at once? Since you mentioned socialising, will interacting with NPCs in different ways cause you to gain or lose respect with them? I'm all about immersion and gameplay. I make things that you can play even after you complete all the guests. There are already excellent mods about eating, drinking and sleeping. My version of this was to make it more like "energy" in old games. For example, if you eat an apple it gives you 1000 energy (or calories what ever). After that, you spend that energy in running, fighting etc. So, maybe you will not need to eat for two days, depends what you have eaten. That solves this thing to be immersive and interesting. I know some great mods where authors wished to make the mod as real as possible and made you eat 3 times a day. That one broke immersion. There will be variables such are tiredness and energy that you spend. When you eat and sleep, you restore those. If you don't eat or sleep, you suffer penalties. I don't know if you played my Goranga dating system, but this mod will be expansion of that to all kinds of relationships that you can make with NPCs. Those relationships can get better or worse for sure. If you are a good friend with someone, he can help you solve some problem by teaching you something etc. Also, you will be able to start romantic relationships and get married (as in Goranga dating system). You will also be able to bring people to boring player houses (and rent them too). There is only one small problem...When your wife gets pregnant (or yourself if you are female player) and have kids, those kids will be ugly as hell, because they will be resized NPCs. I don't know if there is some modders resource with nice looking children. If someone knows, please tell me. Goranga Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have your other two mods (available here) downloaded, but I have yet to play them. It should make the playing this summer more exciting.

slygothmog Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 There is only one small problem...When your wife gets pregnant (or yourself if you are female player) and have kids, those kids will be ugly as hell, because they will be resized NPCs. I don't know if there is some modders resource with nice looking children. If someone knows, please tell me. Dont think I have ever encountered that...One way would be to create your own race and attach the HGEC AA cup size body ( with underwear ) to this race via a script..Rebel O' Connor has written an excellent tutorial ( + scripts ) that you should be able to use for this.I will tell you how to get the file via a PM.

ub3rman123 Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 For the kids, can you do the trick with messing with the race height and width? Then again, I've never tried to make kids, just dwarves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TabuKuroshi Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 I tried your dating system and thought it was pretty cool. This sounds like a great idea as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goranga Posted July 2, 2010 Author Share Posted July 2, 2010 For the kids, can you do the trick with messing with the race height and width? Then again, I've never tried to make kids, just dwarves. Yeah, but female children will have boobs. This thing that Slygothmog mentioned with HGEC AA, A, B can simulate female children growing up. I need meshes for NPCs with clothes for those body types (and permission from author to use it). Also, the problem is the size of the head to the rest of the body, because children have slightly bigger head. There are also other proportions that are different in children than in grown people. It would be nice if someone solved the whole issue. I remember this one mod that adds children and more NPCs, but I forgot the name. I don't know if author used some special meshes or just resized the body. However, I can't find it. Changing size is option for male children.

Xantesh Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 Very nice idea, I'm looking forward for this. But there should be an upper limit of the stuff one can eat during a day of course. You shouldn't be able to eat 10 porks or something and then never have to eat again :thumbsup: Maybe you could also make a misc item to customize the immersion. For example, if I don't like the sleeping immersion anymore I'd like to disable this and keep on playing with the rest of the mod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eshenaleros Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 If I might make a suggestion, this would probably work best if it was modular. Personally, I'd love the whole "Date, Raise a family" thing that you've mentioned, but eating to keep up stamina? That would turn me off of the mod, no matter how cool it is. Everything else though sounds dazzling, and I'd love to take part in it!
