Goodfortitude Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 I got hooked on gaming through the Tomb Raider series when TR II first came about. I loved the 3D adventure theme and really loved their use of color schemes in the level. I felt that it was the lighting that really "made" the game. Naturally I look for levels/games like that now. Oblivion as BRILLIANT as it is, with the exception of the horizons which are gorgeous, comes in 2 colors; yellows and Bright Green (night eye). I really like a lot of different color lighting inside and outside buildings. I've been looking for some playable quests/areas which sport this feature but not having much luck. I have Gamluvr's Magic Lanterns and Lamps of Oblivion which I love, but those are more of a "doit yurself". I really liked City of Sunev (very nice job BTW) but you couldn't do much with it as it was not really completed. I think there must be a few colorful and visually stunning quests/areas out there. plz tell what you know, I like options!! Thanks, GoodFortitude Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goodfortitude Posted July 10, 2007 Author Share Posted July 10, 2007 Oh, c'mon...You'd think I asked for the mod where the spider-man battles it out against Humpty-Dumpty in the Imperial City Arena. It's just good use of color. Do I have to learn how to use the CS and make my own quest? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goodfortitude Posted July 16, 2007 Author Share Posted July 16, 2007 Make my own quest? I'd know it inside and out. That's no fun! :) In all honesty, I've thought about doing one, if I can get the time. But, I noticed something from making mods for TombRaider and Morrowind. The game loses it's mystique when I spend time in the editors/construction sets. The more time I spend creating fun levels, the less I really enjoy the mystery and adventure of exploring the game itself - the "principle of diminishing returns". I didn't want that to happen with Oblivion, such a great game. Although, the more time goes on...the more it seems to happen anyway...(laughs to self) hence why I look for fun mods. So, I've thought about doing one anyway. I'm beginning to think I would have an original mod if nothing else. Although, I don't know if I am up for competing with Ultimate Landscapes or some of the more comprehensive MODs at that. And, as far as writing code or scripting, or anything too "geeky," I really suck. Don't even know how. I'm more into visuals. And, I haven't used the CS yet, but I think that the programs probably get more and more complicated to learn and use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeusXMachina Posted July 17, 2007 Share Posted July 17, 2007 It's not a quest, but it's visually stunning (imho), and you'll need some time to explore it: Septim Mansion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And, nice job. thnx for the link! BTW, does the Deusx in your "thingy" stand for the Deus Ex game? I really liked that game and was very disappointed in pt 2. I thought pt 1 was a ton better. So, I played the first Deus Ex several times over even though I had the second one.. Hope they make a pt 3..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I never played Deus Ex, though I have been asked this quite often :)It comes from Deus Ex Machina. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goodfortitude Posted July 19, 2007 Author Share Posted July 19, 2007 I see. And, now I understand the name behind the game. Well then, you might like the game, if you don't mind playing older games (quite old actually) and you do like shooter/adventure. I thought this link was interesting, sort of combines the two. http://www.deusex-machina.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeusXMachina Posted July 19, 2007 Share Posted July 19, 2007 Thanks for the link :) I have another one for you concerning your request. If you're interested in a magnificent dungeon crawl, you should try this mod. The modder did some amazing work and produced something really "dwemerish" (if you played MW you'll know what I mean).

Goodfortitude Posted July 20, 2007 Author Share Posted July 20, 2007 Wow, that's a freakish mod. I'll definately give it a try. Thanks again "DeusEx", UR on fire! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
