MastrGunZ Posted July 12, 2007 Share Posted July 12, 2007 I was thinking about a mod that would be able to "change" you into a bandit or any of the other groups(Conjurer, Marauder, Necromancer). It's just kind of stupid how if you wanted to become a necromancer and deck out your character in necromancers robes and everything then walk into a cave full of them instead of saying "Hey looks like he wants to join us/is one of us" they say "ZOMG die!"So what about a mod that can change you into one of them? The mod would make all the bandits/conjurers/marauders/necromancers friendly to you. There would be 4 esp files(one for each group) because you can only become one of them not be a marauder and a conjurer at the same time. On the flip side it makes all guards attack you on sight and puts a permanent bounty on your head and you can't pay it off. So basically you won't be able to go into towns anymore. So how would you buy supplies/sell things? This mod could also add NPC's to bandit camps or necromancers caves (depending on which one you are) that sells equipment and will buy loot. This could be an awesome mod for those that play on the other side of the law. As suggested by Simon a small quest line involving your new faction would be great.

Sypron Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 You wouldn't have to make seperate esp's for this to work. What you could do is add some form of amulet, that, when equipted adds you to the faction of the desired group. That would be ultimately all you need. There may however be unforseen consequences.

SimonConnor Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 Using an amulet makes it seem very, very mod-like, that it just shows the pure mechanics, spoiling some immersion. Also, maybe a small questline would be nice, like "Bandit Initiation" or the Necromancy Initiation, where you must hunt and kill a mage, and return with his bones or something.

Sypron Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 Whatever floats your boat. My point is the that you can easily (via script) be added into a faction (such as necromancer). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MastrGunZ Posted July 13, 2007 Author Share Posted July 13, 2007 I don't know if I was supposed to specify this but I was requesting/suggesting this mod....I don't know the first thing about modding as I have never even tried. Plus I'm too lazy to do things like that lol. So if anyone could be kind enough and let me know if they take up my idea so I can watch out for it when it's released. Thanks.

martine94 Posted July 14, 2007 Share Posted July 14, 2007 I' always wanted this kind of mod, And i've been thinking of a little feature to. I often see people who pilgrim beetween cities and camps on the roads , I hate to kill them just to take their loot , I have theives arsenal which help a bit with that (Especially with the black jack thing) but is it possible to make one of thoose and knock people unconsius without being in sneak mode? Then i would 100 % download this. Good luck :ph34r: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sypron Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 That feature would probably part of a different mod. Like I have a mod that allows you to push people over. Once their down you can access their inventory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vagrant0 Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 Coulda sworn I saw someone working on this sort of thing somewhere. Can't seem to find the thread though... Anyway, the real issue with a "join the bandits" sort of mod is that it just doesn't work too well. There just aren't enough NPCs in town you can kill without interfering with some aspect of the game. Naturally, because of this, you couldn't have it where guards attack you since others would likely end up getting caught in the fight. That and something like rigging questlines where you ambush travelers would require someone who understands scripting, packaging, and other stuff well enough to control them, just to perform something which you can already just do on your own with a crowded roads mod active. Frankly I never saw the point in going through the trouble trying to setup a faction just to give people an excuse to go on a rampage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But when you finally become one , What the heck should i do know? At least some kind of hijacking etc feature should be included. It's hard tho..
