LordSarcasm Posted March 4, 2013 Share Posted March 4, 2013 Yea but theres also snake signs but no snakes as well, hmmmmmm maybe the cold waters of Skyrim is too harsh for whalesUmmmm... whales live in both the Arctic and Antarctic and have fat almost two feet thick in places. It's most definitely not too harsh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaradin Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 I'm fairly certain that there are sea creatures in the Monster Wars and Monster Mod Replacers collections. I've at least seen sharks in one of them in the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCoastIsBen Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 I would expand on this saying if there are going to be underwater monsters there needs to be underwater combat. One of the most frustrating things in Skyrim is getting out of the water only to realize your follower is staying behind trying to attack a slaughterfish that won't seem to surface so you can kill it. I do however think a good first step would be to make some massively impressive creatures like blue whales or giant squids that aren't hostile, just impressive. On my first or second playthrough I was exploring the northern coast by winterhold to see how far the map would let me go... and with it being so murky and eerie under water i kept expecting to turn around and see some huge creature just swimming by... alas nothing but a few slaughterfish.

Adecurus Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 You could do a good mod adding some small island with a whaling town on it, say that the whales migration path only goes past that island, so all of Skyrim's whaling industry has died or moved over there. When the player goes whaling they can encounter sea monsters like the kraken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VanKrill Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Well, the point of whaling always was LampOil and Whale Bone. So I guess you could create an area with lots of Horkers in large herds just off the coast, and make the town a Horker Hunting outpost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I plan to set them up with Scripted Spawn Markers which will create a Preditor / Prey numbers simulation. There is allot more Diversity in the Marsh and Reef fish sections by Design. The Cave Fish are made for putting in the Grottos and Falmer Caves. They are usually dangerous. My Survival Simulation is heavily dependent on being stranded alone on a small isle in the Sea of Ghosts, so the Aquatic Life is central to the game play, hence the level of effort. - Edited May 2, 2014 by VanKrill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sclogan1813 Posted February 2, 2015 Share Posted February 2, 2015 How is this project going ? Would really like to one day go underwater in skyrim and have something cool to look at Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GetTheJojDone Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 I'd love to see whales in Skyrim, I think it'd be a good idea to have right whales, humpback whales and maybe even Basilosaurus. Other good ideas would be seals, basking sharks and whale sharks, maybe others as well, and maybe plesiosaurs/mosasaurs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
