Skyrim Mods

Well I know what I’ll want to do in a couple weeks

by

I heard through the grapevine that another Skyrim multiplayer mod is in the works, and it looks fairly interesting!

I remember when some friends and I attempted another mod that was aiming to be multiplayer, but during our testing I ended up between two naked men with man voices and a never ending amount of dragon souls being absorbed for no apparent reason.  I mentioned on stream recently that I would love a more successful mod, and this could possibly be that mod! It’s currently in a closed beta stage at the moment, but in a week or two it will be releasing to the public. If anyone else is interested they might want to stay tuned to this particular Twitter for more details… although with a mod like this I wouldn’t be surprised if all the big gaming news sites decided to cover this a little more extensively.

If this works out it would be a dream come true for me, and I’m sure other Dragonborn that got tired of sitting in chairs and thrones all by their lonesome.

We can all go the the spa together, and I can introduce my friends to my friend corpse buddy! We could adventure together! Sit around the campfire telling stories about the love affair between Nazeem and Jarl Balgruuf’s backside. Bonus points if it’s more stable than Fallout76, though I’m aiming for the sky at this point. :v:

Now for your viewing pleasure: My melons

Suck on deez melonz.

I streamed Skyrim this evening, now with more melons! I’ve discovered a watermelon atronach spell and just HAD to install it. You can either watch my VOD on Twitch, or watch my YouTube video below:

With help from Yutram we explored realms of Skyrim not meant for mere mortals (or console peasants in this case). We went to secret or forgotten levels that Bethesda never took out of Skyrim’s game files. I don’t even think we’re even halfway through the list of different cells, which means we’ll have more streaming of Skyrim in hopefully the not too distant future. 😀

I did manage to score a higher res copy of the stream for future editing. Will get to that as soon as I finish up my other works, though I can already tell this is going to be a fun one to go through, and animating it… 😛

I’ve gone Elswyer

by

I’ve finally made my way to Elswyer, the version included in the Legacy Of The Dragonborn mod. The voice work has been kinda hit and miss but I’ve been enjoying the tropical sights and the story in general.

Fighting the Thalmor, who clashed with my airship above the Elswyer province.

So far I don’t have many complaints about it. Other than maybe the lighting, and as I’ve said above the voice work. The voice acting itself sounds great, but the microphone quality for some of the NPC’s just didn’t mesh well. If it were more crisp I would have found it more believable.

Have some epic Skyrim pix

Guess what I’ve been up to?

Yep, always something interesting going on in this game.

I really need to get to Solitude at some point. I have lots and lots of swag for the Dragonborn Museum sitting in my ever expanding cybernetic backpack that I don’t need to keep hauling around, but I’m closer to Windhelm. I could cheat my way there but I’d rather wander around. And with this game there is no shortage of wandering. 😛

Do you believe in magic?

New to the campus

Made it to Winterhold today. I have the College overhaul which makes the place look much more immersive. I’ve already spent an entire in game day wandering around looking at all the cool stuff and doing some of the college quests. I even helped a dragon remove food particles from their teeth:

Sunday Skyrim Thread

by

My current game has been going quite well. I’ve crafted a katana with electrical damage and soul trapping:

This time around I’m mostly relying on materials I find within the game rather than spawning them in the console (with a few exceptions such as my playermodel/armor and anything that doesn’t have a place in the game). I’ve even been crafting the scarves and halos from scratch.

Fun fact: To make that scarf I had to use a white scarf and red mountain flowers. Some of the ingredients to put scarves together are rather… unique. Like using butterfly wings and metals to get the desired colours. Fortunately I have a lot of stuff in my inventory with room to spare… Which to be fair I did increase with the console, but that’s kind of part of my character’s story. I can carry a ton o swag.

If you have Wyrmstooth you’d better hold on to it

by

wyrm

In case no one has heard, the creator of Wyrmstooth has taken their mod off of the Skyrim Nexus, Steam, everywhere. They also took down every website and account at other websites that they could. It’s sad, I really liked that mod. I still have copies of it though. I was actually wanting to review that mod at some point when I find time to do that sort of thing again. But it was a beautiful mod with great scenery, adventure, and brilliant humor and voice acting for something fan created. It’s a total shame this DLC sized mod was pulled. 🙁

Open Thread

by

Yesterday I was too busy/tired to write anything. My main job wiped my ass out, and after work I went over to the doc’s office to take care of their SSL certs. I’ll be heading over there again next week to discuss other things involving the site, and also I’ll be doing some photography for them. They wanted to take pics of the offices using a smartphone, I volunteered my camera for the job. It has more megapixels. 😛

Then when I got home I played around a bit in Skyrim and made dinner. We had a nice chicken potato curry, and there’s lots of leftovers which will ensure that I’ll have plenty of food for work. 😛

So today I decided to relax instead with the usual activities. I’ve been following the Path Of The Druid quest and gained the ability to become an ice wolf.

There are other abilities I can obtain, like fire and earth. Right now I just think it’s funny being able to shapeshift into an ice breathing wolf at will. 😛

Oh, and I had a scary occurrence.

This guy… He looks like Tommy Wiseau. HOW?!?!?!?!

Guns and a TARDIS, the joys of Skyrim

by

Figured I’d share these pics:

I forgot that I purchased a “gun” in the Wheels Of Lull questline I think? It’s either that or Dwemertech… I had it loaded with electric bolts, really packs a punch even with regular ones. 😛

Now I have a new thing to find (like pretty much the rest of everything I’ve installed), a TARDIS. Should be fun when I find it. 😛
