Nyhilisa Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 Has anyone tried adding to the variety of water creatures? was thinking of minnows specifically, but skyrims lakes are rather lacking in the sense that only 5 or 6 creatures/species inhabit them. (+ the bugs, l suppose but anyway.) What I'm thinking of at the moment is simply creating minnows & other smaller fish via the scale method, but thats rather limited in the sense that the skins etc will still be the same. I have absolutely no skill in this sense, but I'm working on a house mod where the previous owner had a tendency to experiment on live animals, and kind of need something like this. Any advice or options? I'm still very, very (very) new to modding, so even a place to look in the CK is great. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gengrimm Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 don't minows already exist? those small fish used for alchemy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nyhilisa Posted February 10, 2012 Author Share Posted February 10, 2012 don't minows already exist? those small fish used for alchemy. those're the size of perch in real life, really. l'm thinking things smaller, probably faster. doubt i'd want actual properties attached to them or have them be - catchable?, though. Also, if you look at a lake or pond, there're water spiders, tadpoles, frogs, etc. doing all of that is probably unrealistic, but even another 2 or 3 models would be really helpful. l'm just not sure l can do it on my own.

CampanaAliquanta Posted February 10, 2012 Share Posted February 10, 2012 I've been working on some models. I'm new-ish to modelling so I started with simpler stuff first - seaweed, a starfish, an eel and half a redskate. They're not rigged or animated yet, though. It will probably take me months to get a decent pack of water creatures together, but even if I don't manage it I expect other people will be making them too. I'm planning to make mackerel, pike, trout, otters, grey seals, a beluga or narwhaal, and maybe a Greenland shark. It would be enormously helpful if someone could invent underwater combat or fishing, because then there would actually be a use for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol. that is exactly what l'm talking about, though - l've noticed even with skyrims animal life, there is fairly little variety. You have elk, rabbits, foxes, fawns, the bugs, and not much else. For a world as large as skyrim, you see the same models repeated very frequently if you explore. Also, side note. the light bulb in my lamp just popped and started smoking. wtf?
