Bored? Want to collaborate on a mod?

[thisaccountisuseless]

Hello, I'm looking for a few people.
The first person I'm looking for is a female voice actor. She will have to be able to either match the quality or surpass the quality of the stock Skyrim "FemaleSultry" voice.
The second person I need is a scripter. Someone who knows Papyrus really well and has lots of free time.
The third person I need is a 3D modeler and texture editor/creator. I've tried NIFSkope and a few other tools and I can't get the hang of them.

If you're interested, message me here at the Nexus with the following info:

Your first name
Your age
Your past/current employment (if any)
On a scale of 1-10 how good your skills in the requested area are
How much free time you have
Your willingness to blindly follow any directions I or other people involved in this mod give you

I know that's a lot to ask, but it's necessary to make a quality front-page mod.

Now, you may or may not have seen my mod - Shadowmare and Shadowmeer - Voiced Horses. What I want to do is make the mod more personable, and eliminate Shadowmeer and make the horse entirely female. I'm going to keep the default horse AI, unless a scripter wants to make a new one or other people have better ideas.

So Shadowmare is more than just a horse - she's going to be a follower. After combat, you will go up to her and ask her if she's okay by activating "E" and initiating a conversation. She will reply with "I'm fine, my health is <fine, slightly damaged, I'm wounded pretty bad, I'm almost dead> " respectively to 100% following -25% increments to 1%. If she dies you will have to wait the 10 days or you can travel to the four corners of Skyrim to gather re-spawning ingredients (daedra heart, jarrin root, crimson nirnroot, and void salts, all labelled with "Shadowmare's <ingredient>") to perform a 'ritual' which summons her back immediately, but you need a large outdoor space like the plains of Whiterun. Along with that there's going to be a thing where once every 3 days or so she can become human from the time of activation for 24 hours. Then, regardless of whether or not she's in combat she will horse again and her current inventory will migrate to yours, or completely drop unless she has another mod which enables horse inventories. Her human stats will be leveled with the player with an MCM variable offset up to +10. She will transform completely naked, similar to a werewolf de-transformation. You will then be able to initiate follower dialogue and equip her with things. The human form will also be leveled with a static +3 level offset. The default horse dialogue will consist of only "I need you to attack something" and "Are you okay". there will possibly be a "horse care" optional file in which you have to feed her and spend a minimum amount of time with her, which I'm hoping to contain a petting animation. There is the possibility of her human transformation only being available after completing the DB questline AND a side quest for Shadowmare.

If ANYBODY has any ideas, suggestions, or wants to offer help, now is the time to do so. PM me and/or post to this thread.

And? While the sentence itself sounds rather daunting, it's just saying that the mod isn't yours alone and you have to follow the outline I've provided.

EDIT: I shouldn't be snarky. In all seriousness to the original OP, you're not going to get any help from anyone who actually knows what they're doing if you ask in that way. Also, you only get what you give. Help out others with their mods and make some further progress learning to mod on your own... In short, build up a skillset you can share before asking someone with real skills to share them with you to make the mod you envision.

So, I'll ask what I always ask. WHAT will you contribute? Because the people helping with your mod will be offering their time and dedication, and that's a lot.

 

Read this, please, all the way through:

And lastly - most modders aren't bored. If you're a modder, you can do something. That means you'll probably be doing something. People who offer their time do it because they're interested in the project, not because they're just bored and hanging out or whatever.

[Matth85]

Oh dear. What a new twist. You need a moddler, a scripter and a voice actor. What, exactly, are you going to do? If you dare to say "I got the idea!" Or "I write", I am going to humbly ask you to re evaluate your position.

Why would 3 people with proffesional skills help somebody with none?

[FrankFamily]

Not to repeat what others have already said i'll keep it short, if you want people to contribute in a project you have to capture their attention with some stuff already done and a really good idea, they won't help you because they are bored but because they love the idea and see that is going to be finished one day and are willing to contribute to the project.

 

About the idea itself, which is basically all you offer, isn't really interesting, so shadowmere talks and turns into a nude female at times? meh...

Plus most of it could be done in ck imo , not huge times of scripting needed and you haven't even said what you need a 3d modeler/texture artist for.

 

About your requirements:

 

Your first name -> Not needed, you got the nickname.

Your age -> Not needed at all.

Your past/current employment (if any) -> So, you are looking for profesional people and not amateur to help you make a free project in which you only offer the idea??

On a scale of 1-10 how good your skills in the requested area are -> Someone willing to help you and having made some mod related to that "skill" should be enough.

How much free time you have -> rather how much time are you willing to put on the project.

Your willingness to blindly follow any directions I or other people involved in this mod give you -> LOL.

 

Professional requirements for a totallly unprofessional "job" offer... And if you have nothing to offer to the project other than the idea then it belongs in mod requests.

He needs someone to make a animation file to don't forget

 

I filled out the W-2, included my blood type and am ready to be yer slave son

I know that's a lot to ask, but it's necessary to make a quality front-page mod.

None of that is necessary. NONE of it. The only thing that matters is that you've got some determination and a willingness to do things yourself. If you can get a team - great. But you don't need to know their personal information, they don't need to have boundless free time, etc. I understand the want to know how much time they can contribute to the project, but asking someone to rate themselves won't do you much good anyway. Ask for samples, so you can judge for yourself.

 

The last one made me laugh for a solid 5 minutes.

Hey, another one of these threads, sadly matt already got here before I did, but let me remind you that nobody will help you unless there's actually a user named "nobody" that wants to actually help you, which btw the chances are 0 in 1 million and by the time you actually do find someone this community will already have died off.
