Long Lost Child Mod


lnsurgent

Recommended Posts

The mod seems simple enough in my mind, then again I don't know much about mods...

A courier would arrive with a letter stating a child that is biologically yours has recently come up for adoption due to the death of the mother. From there you can choose to adopt him/her, skipping the idea of pregnancy/baby.

Not sure how customizable the kid would be or if it would have to be a preset race/gender, but am I the only one interested in this?

Seems like a lot of demand for family mods.

Well, it sounds to be very good idea, however I see few problems-The mod has to be scripted for male characters only, not female, that it would require Hearthfire DLC, and if the child's location before adoption would be Honorfall Orphanage, then Innocence Lost quest would have to be completed in order to adopt.

 

But still very good idea! :smile:

I agree with Moonflower, this is a very good idea that I would definatly endorse. But the unavailability for female characters kind of bothers me. Maybe a child could come from before the game, seperated crossing over the boarder or something similar. Perhaps it could be a child claiming to be the cousin of the draganborn, or maybe a neice or nephew.

Heh, wow, so I've actually been working on pretty much this exact thing. You can only have a son at this point, and I haven't found a solution for elves and orcs, as I didn't find any elf or orc child mods that I was happy with. The only thing I did differently was I made the child a recruitable follower rather than being adoptable, as I wanted to take my kid adventuring, and getting the actors to switch back and forth between acting like a follower and acting like an adopted kid is pretty hard to do. It will allow the player to be the mother or father though, and your son will address you appropriately.

 

I hope to get around to doing the daughter version eventually, it's just that crawling through lines of dialogue looking for which ones I can use, and working backwards to create a dialogue tree based on those took me a pretty long time.

 

As for the son part, it's just about ready for initial release. There's a regular one and an RS kids one. I'm just waiting to get permission to upload it. The khajiit version is based on My Little Kitty, which in turn uses assets from Pretty Khajiit, which states in its permissions section that anyone who wants to use the assets from that mod need to get permission first. Unfortunately tktk1's inbox seems to be full, and I get an error when I try to message him/her. I've left a comment in the Pretty Khajiit discussion section, but until I get an answer I can't release anything. This being my first mod release, I want to make sure I do everything the correct way and respect other people's assets.
