JackNitro Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 What's the point of a Bards College in Solitude if you can't even play the flute? With this mod, I aim to change that. Bard hero will allow the player to play any instrument that the player finds on their travel (drums, lute, flute, etc.) or even sing (don't know yet) for tips from onlookers. It will add a slew of new songs, the technicality of which will depend on your speech skill, and with it, the size of the tips you will receive. As your speech skill rises, you will unlock new songs that you can choose to play, and become the best bard in Tamriel. Its a similar idea to the Lute action from Fable II, for those who are familiar. I'm fairly new to modding, but this idea seems simple enough. The animations for playing instruments are already there, and I'm sure I'll be able to scour the internet for audio files that can be used as songs (someone's bound to have recorded a lute before, right? Right?!) I'll almost certainly need some help from people who are more well-versed in the Creation Kit and maybe even Papyrus one I get down to the nitty-gritty, though. If anyone would be willing to help, don't hesitate to tell me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Korodic Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 I dont know about doing it like guitar hero style, but you can certainly allow the player to use the instrument. Also make sure you get permission to use those audio files, directly from the author or from a page officially stating you can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'll just make the instruments equippable, at which time it'll bive an option of what song to play. You'll probably start with a simple tune or two, like "mary had a little lamb" type things, but you'll unlock more, better tunes as your speech skill increases Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
