Addicted to modding and it's all your fault, I mean hi.

[IdentityZero]

Hey guys,

 

Pretty new to the Bethesda modding scene, been lurking Nexus mod shopping for FO4 and Skyrim mods since FO4 was released, never really started doing it til a month ago. I totally understand how modding is a labor of love. I love it and I hate it, that's something we'll just have to work out in a little locked room.

 

Gamer all my life. Atari, NES-GameCube, Sega, PSX-PS4, Xbox, PC, you name it, I've probably played it

 

Other games I've modded? Minecraft (giggle), Half-Life 2, Gary's Mod, a little bit of Dragon Age, extensive modding of Ultima Online servers (admin, world creation and item creation with C#), nothing else coming to mind, does the Game Genie count? (damn I feel old)

 

Best game series? Ultima series, Elder Scrolls series, Fallout series, Battlefield series, Half-Life series, Metal Gear/MGS series, Warcraft series, Lufia series, Final Fantasy series.. just to name.. a lot..

 

Best games? Chronotrigger, Secret of Mana, Earthbound, Ultima Online, Age of Empires 2, Counter-Strike, WC3: Dota/Dota 2, and I could go on here as well..

 

Mod Authors so far that I like? aMidianBorn, Elianora, EotW, Pfuscher, DDProductions off the top of my head. You all are (and everyone else) contributing here are amazing and thank you.

 

Anywho, finally nice to stop lurking, will donate soon. If anyone else is new I've been working on this spread for the last month:

"extensive modding of Ultima Online servers"

 

Do you think it would be possible to extract the UO game files and export the landscape to a skyrim world? I too am new to modding but have time to learn and want to recreate Britannia in the Skyrim engine. (I know, a HUGE endeavor) but I think there would be a lot of interest and would surely bring old UO players in to purchase Skyrim.

 

Just getting the map layouts and house/tree/mining/etc placed properly would take forever. I don't even know if the Skyrim engine can handle the size of UO.

 

Copying from scratch just seems too time consuming and unrealistic, especially when you add all the interior dungeons.

 

Would value your opinion. Thanks.

Enjoy your stay with us!!

I don't personally know what requirements would be needed in a compiler, I would say that it would be a pretty big endeavor. That does sound like a great idea though. As for every other aspect of the game, wouldn't be a chore in comparison. Besides models and animations. The Creation Engine would be perfect for building on everything else. If anyone could get the world space converted, would obviously need to be scaled out. It would be an amazing project to be part of UO is EASILY the greatest MMO (and first). My mind would be blown if I could build a house with FO4's construction tools in Skyrim. Even more so if they expanded upon the Skyrim Multiplayer Mods, even a 12man game? Bladespirits, Balrogs, taming Dragons, the Dark Father, Lich Lord room in deceit, deadly poison, yes please! I would devote all my spare time, which sadly isn't a ton :sad: to making that happen.

Thanks! If you have Sneak & Peek, Joust, Surround, or Tanks where and when! It's hard for me to go back and play most games that old, anything farther back then SNES is a chore, unless I have it on emulator and can speed up the game through some of the slower miscellaneous dialog/combat, depending on the game. Currently hard at work going back and modding FO3 and FNV.. I didn't realize until 2 weeks ago there is a STEP for both, almost everything I've picked out is on them.. sigh. At least I know quality when I see it. Massive spreadsheets of mods.. TES3/4/5 and FO3/NV/4 that I've been building in my spare time at work. Mostly FO3..if interested:
