Need Information - Google wont help me

[MrCooper2006]

Hi guys.

 

Need some information on the above - I have all installed with FCOM and can see traces of them in the game, but I cant see anywhere to find out what they do or how to work them...

 

 

 

Ive seen "pure ebony" for sale in Smiths for example

 

Ive seen a spell given to me from picking up a Ruby

 

It says you cannot bash this lock sometimes.

 

 

But i dont know exactly what to do...

 

Can someone explain how to Lock Bash and what it involves? (I know theres the options for turnin the difficulty down and being able to lockpick in combat n change security requirement etc) But how do you actually do it?

 

Also, what about the hunting crafting? Do i buy the ebony/iron then somehow forge my own weapon?

 

ANd whats the geomancy about? Do you exchange gems/rubys for different spells?

 

 

Help pleaseeee

1.) Geomancy.

 

First you will need to read the book, "Report

on Ayleid Geomancy". You can find this book in the lobby of

the Arcane University (you do not need to be a member). It

will explain what geomancy is, and the effects you can

expect from different stones.

 

After you have read this book, spells from geomancy will

be added to your normal list of known spells whenever you

pick up gemstones. Select and cast them as you would any

other spell. You can identify them easily because they

will have "Geomantic" as the first part of their name.

Every time you cast one of these spells, a gemstone of the

relevant kind will be lost forever. Each kind of gemstone

(like ruby versus diamond) has a different type of spell,

and each quality (flawed versus flawless) has a different

strength of that spell.

 

2.) Gem Dust (by Turgothh).

 

If you have a mortar and pestle in your inventory, you can

click on a gemstone in your inventory: it will be ground

into a dust, which you can use to help with your potion

brewing. If your alchemy skill is very low (less than 25),

there is a 50% chance that you will ruin the gem without

getting anything useful from it. Flawed gems will give only

one portion of usable dust, normal gems give two, and

flawless gems give three portions.

 

This one and lock bashing were individual mods integrated into OOO 1.3. They're still individual mods, but not needed if you have OOO installed. Now researching hunting/crafting.

ATTENTION USERS OF earlier Hunters MOD versions

------------------------------------------------------------------

I had no problems with my save game when switching out the ESP file

to Hunters MOD v2.5. Having said that, it is always a good idea to keep

a backup copy of your save game before installing new mods.

 

If you encounter any bugs please let me know! [email protected]

 

 

NEW IN VERSION 2.5

------------------------------------------------------------------

-Many creatures now drop Bones, Brittle Bones, Large Bones, Ribcage,

Rawhide Skins, Feathers, Rare Arrowheads and Goblins even carry tools and

materials that can be used with this mod and Axebane_RealHunger25.

 

-Fletching Tools can be found that allow the creation of many types of

Arrowheads & Arrows, including

Bone, Barbed Bone, Silver, Flint, Obsidian, Ogre's Tooth & Daedroth Tooth.

 

-Leatherworking Tools can be found that allow the creation of Light Armors

like Hide, Hard Leather & Bone Studded. Rawhide Animal Skins must be turned

into Cured Hide or Tanned Leather before you can craft with it.

 

 

 

Simply go hunting and find some prey. Save the Bones, leave the Brittle

Bones & Ribcages because they are unusable. (Large Bones will be usable

in future versions of the Hunters Mod to create shields and heavy armor)

 

Then find a set of Leatherworking Tools and some Fletching Tools and you

can start making your own ammunition and armor. Check in all barrels and

crates and you will find some. The tools tell you how much materials you

need for each item you try to make.

Thanks Shadow,

 

Altho i seemed to have the spell from picking up a Ruby... and iv never seen that book. Maybe you just get them anyway but the book explains them better. At least i know what they are tho... cheers

 

and your googling skills must be better than mine Shadow!

[Shadowcran]

Hope I helped out. I learned a few things while doing it. Realized since I had OOO up and running, I didn't need the MMM one for gems and gem dust, so that left me another place to put another mod in my bloated game.

 

Nope, I went through my read me's. I keep them all in a separate folder just for occasions like this. One of these days I'm just going to move them all into one big document. For Geomancy, I just went to the Nexus entry for the individual mod and copied and pasted it's read me.

[MrCooper2006]

Ohhh....

 

 

Ive seen the Rawhide skins after hunting deer but thought they were just like Wolf Pets, just something to sell.

 

 

Not seen any fletching tools or anything tho yet, maybe iv just missed them. This could be interesting thanks again Shadow.

 

 

By the way, any idea how to actually "Bash" a lock?? I cant seem to do it.

[Shadowcran]

I haven't tried yet. I've succeeded in lockpicking all but the ones that say "this is beyond your skill".

[MrCooper2006]

Yeah i have that too... mainly for the very hard ones, altho you can turn that off with the "options" tab in your inventory from UOP. (I personally left this on as it gives some reason to get expert in Security, altho i turned off the "No combat lockpicking) as i find it very annoying.

 

 

It seems to think your in combat even when theres one lone Goblin at the other end of a dungeon..... hmm.

 

 

Still cant find anything on bashing tho.... Iv tried hitting one with a warhammer when i didnt have lockpicks and it said something along the lines of "you tried but unsuccessfully bashed this lock"

 

 

Also with OOO, the traps are OK, it said "You feel there may be a trap on this lock, do you want to try and remove it"

 

I said yes, two seconds later I was dead with serious burns..... lol

[MrCooper2006]

Oh sorry mate didnt notice the earlier post ... the one describing exactly how to Bash a lock......!!!

 

Anyway this is exactly what I was looking for, thanks alot.

 

 

I guess the actual bashing is for ppl poor in security skill or who cannot do the lockpicking game.

[Shadowcran]

or for people who like to bash things, lol?
