Real Forts and Outposts

[Setterhead]

So i want to talk about forts, outposts and small settlements in Skyrim.

As for me there is a big problem, associated with such things in the game (actually i had the same problem in all TES games, wich i've played). And the main point of the problem is that key Skyrim roads, mines, even rather big areas are controlled by some crazy mages and bandits. But I would like to see all this points, owned by strong Skyrim factions.

 

For example:

1. All forts, wich belongs to Civil War Company should be filled wih stormcloacks/rebbelions from the very start of the game. And soldiers must not just stand on the walls as some kind of statue, they should perform there duty, sleep, train and so on.

2. I just hate Forsworn faction. This quest was just unfinished and there is some s*** with Forsworn in the Reach - they control every part of the hold except Markarth, but can't do anything. And Markarth guards do nothing as well. In this case outposts and forts of Reach should be occupied by forsworns and Markarth soldiers both. And in general Forsworn guest must be remade.

3. If a fort belongs to a quest line it should be changed after you finish it like that Nocturnal shrine from Thieves Guild company.

a) Fort with silver incvisitors from companion's quest can become companions's outpost in wilds.

b) Fellglow Keep from college's questline can be mage's experement point.

c) And so on...

4. Optional:

a) If you have cleared a bandit tower/camp it can become hold guard's encampment.

b) If a nord\dwemer ruin cleared it becomes a research point of Synod/College and so on.

 

Actually i don't want to fill all dungeons with guards, but a part of them should be changed in this way. I think it will make the game much better.

So tell me please, do you like the idea. Is there any mods, wich change the same things?

Thank you.=)

 

P.S.: Sorry for my english. ;)

The idea is something that is actually "makeable" and it would be sweet to see such turn of life in the game, making factions presence more heard and seen. Fact is, this mod is probably one of the most difficult and timetaking a modder could start to do, and that is why it would take a lot of time for someone to even come out with a pre-alpha version! I hope you find the right modder!

[Setterhead]

Why do you think so? I don't talk about any new models or textures. I think you should just make the same thing as bethesda made with civilwar city retaking.

And a modder can make a little part of the mod. For example just Fellglow Keep editing.

 

Thanks for your answer)

No problem, just to let you know, I wrote that it is a simple mod as idea but it takes a hell of a time to create those thing known to us as SCRIPTS. And hell, I hate scripts.

[Setterhead]

But were can i find modders who like scripts then?X)

 

Can't you just try to make a little work with a firt/tower and show your code to people. That can attract some people for imroving the mod. X)

Try to ask THIS GUY. He's good with scripting and will probably offer himself for this.

[Setterhead]

Hehe... Thank you.=)

 

But tell me, is it a good idea at all? Or is it creative? Will it attract people?

 

And were can i try to study script writing for Skyrim?X)

I'd pay for a mod like this. Yes, dollars. Real one. Skyrim needs to be more alive and this idea\concept is not everything skyrim needs to be the best game ever but surely it will help to improve it to own that kind of title. Good ideas and for the next time, good work!

[Setterhead]

Oh... Thank you.)

I hope someone will help me.

 

In a pinch i can try to find a modding team in russian comunity. But you know, they are so busy with that Andoran...

[TheDarkPrince]

Can't wait for that mod, btw!
