He's back...to make Tamriel great again

Great like Kvatch after the daedric invasion you mean?

Well lets talk about something funnier then, shall we?      I would never add that face into my game. I have seen some cool suitable images though. I do suspect that Roger Stone will succeed in the revolution in USA 2028, if he still lives by then it is. This will be an interesting period, well is it? I am a bloody Swede after all and what do I care honestly? it does not effect my economy at all, not directly as politics is economy not much else, well and skin color too, according to some parties.

So what about skin colors?  I did a couple of edits a few days back as the faces in F3 and FNV do look so damn pale and boring, like a bunch of Albinos. I did start slowly, succeeded in making very odd faces, like dolls but I went back top the realism again. The doll faces did not appeal to my liking at all. As I bet you know how a face looks like in F3, lets go ahead and look at the doll face.

Cross - Doll face - Well the Afroamerican color is tricky to get right. The color of the lips should be more brown I guess.

Sarah - Doll face

 

This is the final Screenshot of Sarah, how she looks this very day, more natural but still nice colors. More colors at the right places as well. She is the most beautiful girl in F3, daughter to the Brotherhood leader and she is highest in the field command of the BOS and now my companion.

Mip map test. Different distances and light. No doll face

The beauty Cross and also Brisa. Well Cross looks best without make up really. She is also a BOS officer. Brisa? Player made Vault Dweller. She do have some nice comments sometimes, well mostly just pure bullsh. I did turn off her comments when they did stop to make sense. No doll faces.

Cross is a pure hottie. It is a shame she is extremely dull person though.

-I am yours to command sir!

This is not a beauty, but an interesting char never the less, Sydney. She is very cool really and hot in her own way. I like her a lot as she seems to know what she is doing in the world. She fears nothing. She is an artifact collector and that is where you meet her as she is a temp real Bethesda companion for a mission, made to become a real one by a player and she seems to have more hidden dialogue as she sometimes do make new and odd comments.    With the same voice, from start to end. Maybe AI voice?? Her voice is darker then the others, masculine in some way

This is the outside of my base by the way. It is a place that is under constant attack, to train some battles, well simulate them, but that does not make them less deadly. The base is set to be under siege every 3rd day or less. I do have 10 guards + 4 companions guarding it + my own companion, a male one I did show earlier.

I did gave him a new face as well, less pale, but still he needs more colors.

Different sizes to test mip maps.

 

This one was made by @JimboUKI like this one a lot really.

The last one by JimboUK seems like an Oblivion character in Fallout. By the way, your characters are marvelous. I always envisioned Sarah Lyons as a blond. In one of Thuggysmurf's mods for Fallout 4, she even became a mother to Owen Lyons and the Elder of the Brotherhood of Steel.

I also edited the fat Boss in Vault 87. I do not really like fat NPC as where do they get all that energy from becomming big as a baloon??  The only survivors, in game do workout and stay fit to stay alive. Fat is good, no doubt as it is a reserv, but you must build up that reserv. Is there enough food for that? Well yes really.

I quote Heather Casdin:

-Ones I ate a whole Mirelurk and I did not need to eat for a week after that.

Or correct me @Moksha8088What did she say??  I do not have the game installed, well the files are here but...    I did reinstall my comp. It is not important. She ate a whole Mirelurk anyway. Can you see it? Well she is fit as a Russian gymnastics. Strong as an Oxen. Nice hair.

I just gave my companion Sam Colt a Pip-Boy? Why? Well it makes sense really. Otherwise, from where does he get all his info that he shares with his team and how does he do all other weird stuff he can do? Well with his Pip-Boy. I added it this morning. Does such a small detail really matter much? Well yes, it sure does. It also looks cool. He is the one that adds most to the group, as he is both a guide and the initiator of 26 missions by now and there will be more. I have been adding quests to him now for a month. I will play 2 off them today I guess.

Is it fun to play your own missions? Well, firstly, I make up the quests the same day. I know where they start and end but not what will happen between A and B. Sometimes I do have a map marker and sometimes I don't. My journey will of course differ from everyone else, except that the goals are the same, but that's it. What is funniest? To get to the goal or the journey there? Well make a guess.   When the journey is over, I need to spend 1 more hour with GECK (CS) and how fun is that?

This is the staircase in my home. I did not make this home mod as it is so good, that I do not need to make one. Well, some more space could not hurt. I will not make a new home mod that took me 2 years to make.

Why 2 years??  Well see my videos and make a guess. 

 

 

Here is my first video, as I was forced to make it, to show off my frustrations when I tried to make this bloody room to work. It works perfect now as DraketheDragon told me how to make it work. So this is all thanks to him.    If I did not have this issue, I would never made videos.

Which tools is best? Well the dynamic sorter, that saves so much time. I hate fixing with my inventory as I want to play the game, not bother with items. I do miss this in Fallout and maybe I add it. I know other did as well, but I want full control over my chests really.

So, the house was just meant to be a simple space for companions in the beginning and it became something else in the end. It was a fun journey for sure. What else can I add to it? Well not much that I can think off, as if I did, I would have added it already.    What is missing??  Well, Nothing.

I think I did record all fun stuff available in this mod, 12 videos all together I guess. Some do have bad sound as it sure lagged with my older computers while recording, but not any longer. I think it is good to go back here and watch them as what could be transferred to other games? Well, all of it, but that will take a lot of time. I focus right now with making fun quests instead. And yes, This house mod has over 60 quests included and more can be made really. I might pick it up one day, checking if the player are done with the quest dungeons, adding new quests and stuff to them, scripted of course, and that will make them different to play as well. Imaging my book burglers taking over all bloody caves in the whole game.    They will...  

When O think about it, I never recorded a quest. Well that might spoil the fun, but maybe I should anyway?  IDK??  One day maybe...

If I record today, it will llok like this and this is recorded when I did test one of my current quests I made in F3.

 

F3 DLC01

So nervous...  Out all alone, an infiltration mission. I have not been alone for a long time...  Can I do it?  Well time will tell.  What on earth am I wearing?  Slave stuff?  I do think I did find a suitable head gear as well, a druids hood?  Where the hell am I? 

Damn, it is so high up here. I wonder if anyone is spotting me yet?

Well I did STOP, so what now?

 

Before I got here, I did have a thought...  So what is this mission?  Should I bring the army? Should I bring anyone? Well, I relaxed, thought, and decided to go alone. I do fear that my companions will ruin this specific mission. Why bring them on a job like this one?  I did also leave them behind at a similar DLC in the FNV game and that just worked fine. I did bring lots of food and 3000 bullets, which should be enough really. I know at some point that they will strip me off everything anyway. Who? Well the raiders or slavers will. This whole area is a big Raider facility. The goal is to get close to the leader... Not to demolish the hole place.

If I would need them, my companions, I can always call for them. Should I?  Well actually no. This is a one man mission. I really think that this one will be funnier that way. Usually I am a lazy f'ck, letting them do the dirty work, well I fire of some bullets and that's fine. How fun is it to kill 300 dragons or deathclaws alone? Well, not that fun in the long run. Raiders? Well they go down fast, no need for backup really.

Lazy? yes I am lazy, why would I otherwise made the house in Oblivion the way I did built it?  because I am lazy and like convenience and I like to have everything served in game on a silver plate, that's why.    That house and its staff, serves the player like nothing else does. Show me something similar?  You will fail. 

So what about the house in Skyrim, the Legacy of the Dragonborn? Well that is in Skyrim. My mod does not provide the player Air ships, the ability to fly, a big castle, the biggest museum ever built, damn good adventures like archeology expeditions and stuff like that, but in Oblivion, there is nothing like it, not that I know about at least. I could make mine bigger, no doubt, add more stuff to my museum really. But...  Yes, quests in Fallout...  That is really needed. These games needs more of that stuff. We must stop and think...  Where do I spend my time? Inside my big house or out at the field? Do I really need to store and sort 300 different arrows with my sorter?? Sort resources, weapons, armor or whatever? What for?  Immersion... 

Honestly. When you get used to the house, it feels good to just spend some time there, relaxing after a couple of hours fighting and exploring as that will make you tired, your brain needs to recover and it needs to make new connections, build more and new neurons and synapses. So therefor a nice and familiar house will provide that, a place for recovering. But what will happen when you first visit it? Well, it will most likely blew your mind off and make steam pop out from your ears. You get instant access to everything and that suits me if I replay the game. I do not need to bother getting new stuff. I just make sure I have enough money to buy the basic stuff and after 3-4 dungeons, I am completely outfitted for the rest of the game. Yes, I usually pay for my own stuff, which makes me feel better and less as a bloody cheater.  :D

Another good way to relax is really to turn off the screen and go to bed. But before I do that, I do spend some time in the house, to get the speed down. Watch the crew, go after my companions, see what they are up too. I do not have their schedules in my memory. So they can be anywhere. Well at night, they all sleep in the same room. I love Oblivion AI. It is great. The AI today is amazing. Have you seen the latest AI available for Skyrim? Well go there and have a big laugh as it is hilarious. So extreme, so tight and extremely well made videos. Bullfrog is really a damn pro.
