Making a mod

[coffeelot]

Okay I'm making a mod for vampires, but I need some help. I know some moding, but I need people to make npcs to talk to an quests.

 

The mod:

It's gonna be a safeheaven for vampires, with some quests for the new "Brotherhood". Kindoff like the Black hand / Dark Brotherhood but its mostly for vampires or wannabe vampires.

The Brotherhood still needs a name, but it im thinking about something like The Nightfangs or something like that. Well as I said i can make some stuffs, but I can't make doors to connect to the "real world" in oblivion cause my CS is sick, and noone knows the prob. The So far made

Thats what i have done sofar, you'll find it (in CS) under "Interiors/VampireLair" I'm gonna make the next rooms wich are going to be kinda like the Liberary in IC. I havn't done so much yet, its only the entrance, but I need help.

 

You can add my MSN if you wanna join the crew "[email protected]"

Or you can just type ideas, and post the updates to my stuffs here.

 

And before the whining starts comming in about my crappy moding, I KNOW! I suck at modding but this is my first thing I have tried to make somthing! Keep that in your mind!

Nightfangs? Seems a little comic-bookish for Oblivion. How about:

 

The Nightshade Brotherhood

The Wolfsbane Society

Vaermina's Children (the nightmare daedra, remember her?)

The Society of the Reborn

Second Morning

 

There are plenty of great quest tutorials around, including on this site in the "tutorials" section, but you should definitely check out the Construction Set Wiki (google that phrase and you find it instantly).

Thanks for the name ideas SickleYield.

But it would be better if I can get more people to work on this, I mean so that One person doesn't make it all. Cause to make something great you need some experience, and going with tuts will take forever and then It won't still be as good as some of the modders can do. And now im talking about Npc acting and making quests

Er. Before Vagrant0 or Peregrine gets onto this thread...

 

Asking for experienced people to join you and do the hard parts for you is probably not going to get you anywhere. Learning to mod is hard. That's true. So put in the time to learn, and then you won't be dependent on anyone else. If your idea is good, it will still have an audience when you know how to execute it yourself.

It's not a good idea to ask for lots of help when you have no evidence of a mod so far. Especially when you've shown that attiutude

 

and going with tuts will take forever

 

 

 

That line alone would get you flamed if I was in a bad mood. Learn yourself.

 

 

 

I was lucky to get experienced people to help me, and only because I put in the hours and learned a lot myself. I know very little about scripting or texturing, but people are willing to help me with that because I do know plenty about general CS use and AI. That plus I do 75% of the work on my own mod.

 

 

 

If you can't learn everything, than specialise. Learn as much as you can about one or two important parts, and people will be much more willing to help you with the rest.

 

 

 

If everyone specialised in something, the community would probably be a lot stronger as a whole.

Well I'm self learning to make structures in CS but I still need someone to link it to the world, cause it's impossbile for me. And yah following tutorials doesn't often get my way. It's always something missing, and Well I did follow one to learn the main things in CS and I sort of did, but I still have the problem that I can't make things work with Tamirel.. I could probably learn to make atleas some Npcs in the caves, but they wont do much else than explain what the brotherhood does.

And by the way, i can't take pictures of what I have done so far cause I can't get there Ingame... Or well i might screenshot some from CS..

Okay If someone is interested I have made some more on this mod.

Bugs:

1: First room disapears, only the doors and lanterns there.

2: The doors say "dummy cell" or something like that.

3: The last door you reach , in the last room, says ocheevas quarters.

 

I'm gonan fix all these but feel free to check it out, and it is dark, cause vamps don't really need light.

The entrance is located at the bottom of the dark brotherhood sanctuary.

Use TLC or whatever it was to fly to the next door in the first room. It has a lantern above the door, so its kinda easy to see.

 

And yeah, not sure if you have to uncheck the old one.. but i don't think so.. i din't :P

 

Removed the old link.

 

http://rapidshare.de/files/35090133/Vampir...eaven2.esp.html fixed the problems. No new what I know about.. And the Entrance will be moved.. when I feel like it :D

There are no Npc's but that will come.. If I feel like learningor if a very nice person comes and save me from the knowledge of that.. and makes it him/herself :P
