Gryphex Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 (edited) I have been waiting for this game for 4 years and finally they released it but still no rideable boats.in oblivion there are so many rivers and even a large bay so boats are absolutely necessary for transportation.but I thought they will release it in their next version but still it doesn't have any rideable boats or ship. at least please consider to release this with an expansion pack.some people raise a question are there any rivers in Skyrim? of course it does have. but not many but it's sufficient for boats though not for large nordic ships. I suppose if they allow player to ride on boats and other NPCs. so people can actually fish, use the boats for transportation. this will be nice feature. and also add some rideable carts and some missions so player can transport merchandises to any city. it can go like this way. player is received a mission from one of shops in whiterun city and the seller expects those stuff should be delivered to the Solitude somehow. now we should able to load those merchandises into our cart and travel to solitude. once we got into solitude we can received our award from the other seller. we can either use boats or carts to transport merchandises.also even NPCs should have ability to do what we do now. I meant basically it's really cool to have rideable boats and a proper trade system. I know there are horses but what's wrong with adding some boats.?just look at Two Worlds 2. it has lot of cool features even it is rendered by DirectX 10.Skyrim is a very nice game but still it is lack of some important features.they can add them in their next expansion pack if it's possible. Do you know Russians use small boats even in winter to transportation. ?they do have the similar weather to Skyrim. can anyone make a mod for this? Thanks.!

xaliqen Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 (edited) There are a few threads on ships of various kinds (both flying and sailing): Thread 1, Thread 2, Thread 3 There's definitely interest in a mod like this. Once the construction set is released, we'll see how easy it is to implement. Edited November 20, 2011 by xaliqen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gryphex Posted November 20, 2011 Author Share Posted November 20, 2011 but Not sure when they release the Creation Kit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aulliwyn Posted February 2, 2012 Share Posted February 2, 2012 This is something I have been thinking heavily about. I want to be able to go to a shipwright and buy a boat and sail it down a river. I want to have that "oh sh**!" moment when I realize I sailed a bit too far and my boat is heading towards a very steep, very tall waterfall. I want to have a mod that actually has fishing....and I do it from my boat! I want I want I want!...No really, I do want these things. :D That, and the ability to at least talk to people passing by me while I'm on horseback.

robsy128 Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 So... now that the creation kit has been released, would anyone like to work on a boat mod for us all? There's no need to add different kinds of boats. We already have the models in the game. I think it would be awesome just to have the option to get in a boat and ride it down the river and rapids :D Is anyone else with me? Although I have to admit that it would be a bit of a challenge. I mean... wouldn't you need to add animations for the characters using the ores, and the boat in the water leaving a trail, etc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the wake, we have the ripple effect if you walk in the water so that's half done, oar animations are iffy but probably doable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vortexhlp Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 [inserts obligatory, don't bump threads it'll get locked by mods if you do comment here] I think the biggest problem with this, is that there's not much ocean to explore. So having an extended map with sea monsters, perhaps sea dragons? I think it's possible but a huge undertaking. Basically in order to make a boat mod actually worth making, there would have to be an ocean expansion, at least that's how I feel about it. Who knows though, maybe there will be a legitimate DLC that expands on this idea but unlikely I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robsy128 Posted March 12, 2012 Share Posted March 12, 2012 Why do you need an ocean for a boat? I'm talking about small boats, not massive pirate ships like the one where you... see the emperor on ;) I think it would be cool, simply for immersion sake. Maybe even add fishing into the game and people would have a field day :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
