  1. Time flies, and now after almost 10 years since starting to play TES games, I'm coming back setting up my mod list and going to try to get back to things. Dragon's returning to roost.

      Probably yes, but thank you. Been here for awhile and life's taken me away from things.

      Welcome back Vou. I as well will be rebuilding.

      I'm pulling hair out over installing the mods again and it seems MAYBE FNIS is not playing nice... not to mention it seems Wrye Bash doesn't like me using older mods.

  2. It's been so long since I played Skyrim, nevermind modded it. And with other things I wonder. Should I return to it? Is it worth it? Or move to other ventures?

      Honestly? I don't know. I have been working on other projects here and there. Attempting streaming and trying to get back into art. I -hope- I still have my backups of my old project. I'd -love- to make it into a whole quest but seeing the works of others? I have a lot more work to do to make it worthwhile. There's other things I'd like to do, but honestly? I don't even know what I'd want to try building this time around.

      Just keep us in mind. :)

      I do, I'm still here! I'm just in a massive funk.

  3. I have pc parts coming in for my first actual EVER pc build. Ryzen 7 1800x with an awesome mobo and case. Granted I'm starting with cheaper amd 4gb video card for now. I'll be upgrading to a 1080ti hopefully by year end, and then a 4k monitor next year. May even look into going SLI as well for stuff. Also will FINALLY returning to roots and doing art/learning how to and maybe even do commissions. Finally getting into the "build your own pc" crowd.

      Wow ... congrats.... looks like you went with liquid cooling??/    Can`t see what brand.

      Corsair's H115i AIO. I love it, and it's quiet. A low "hum" is all I hear. And yes! I got games. For now guild wars 2 is installed on my SSD. I'll eventually get back to Skyrim on PC. Have a list of games/programs I need to install. Just installed one of my artprograms. I just need to install the free photoshop cs2 from Adobe and I -should- be good to go.

  4. Still recovering, entering a more grueling phase I think. Exhaustion's here, but so too is recovery. The mental part is exhausting.

      Glad to see that you are recovering! Courage, the light is ahead! :)

  5. So digital art may become a thing for me. If all works out right and well? I could enter he field there, atop of streaming.

  6. The joys of trying to create a channel name for streaming, and a official name for a world your building... and do art when the brain is not cooperating.

  7. So... I got ESO finally for my ps4, given laptop is 'okay' desktop is dead. So this, and potentially streaming is going to be a thing.

  8. I'm still alive. Despite the year grinding me down and denying me to work on artwork and my other skills. Course if certain rumors are true, I may return to modding. Without a desktop I cannot do certain aspects of what I want to do.

  9. Disappearing(more than I do already) for awhile, dunno if I'll go back to modding or not. Have a lot of re-evaluating to do in my life right now and not sure what's next for me.

      Good Luck, whatever you decide to do :lucky:

  10. Back to basics, teaching myself how to draw and do artwork. Manga style first then work more realistic. Since clearly other aspects in live aren't working out.

      I've been there or a site similar, they're great for gesture drawing. If I had the money I'd be neck deep in anime/manga doing research and practicing the styles. Well that and art stuff. Stuff isn't cheap.

  11. All this suffering with the allergies/post nasal drip was made worthwhile when I saw the Final Fantasy 7 remake trailer.

  12. I am not doing so hot, apparently having a reaction with my chloresterol medicine. Dr trip tomorrow and hopefully I'll be fine.

      Well throat's red, not strep throat, but the office doesn't think it's an allergic reaction to the meds, just a nasty case of allergies that irritated the throat or post nasal drip.. that just conveniently kicked in at the time I started new meds.

  13. So apparently to make my new tablet work on the desktop, I need to disable part of security that checks for the liscenses. Thus making the computer at risk. But i need to do this so I can work on learning digital art.

    1. HeyYou

      HeyYou

      Huh? That seems rather odd.... what tablet? (this may merit its own thread.....)

      It's a regular intuos. My problem is aside from meaning laptop is when I upgraded the hard drive I was tired of having the windows alert flag thing. So I deleted some stuff I forgot now, lost the repair disk and now I had to go into disabling the driver sign check. Can't change settings or access anything on the laptop like recalibrating the sensitivity but it still works.

  14. The rollercoaster continues, what this comes down to is, we still must remain vigilent. But the damage has been done and we now know who wants the money and who's doing this out of love for the community and wish to share great things. Didn't last a week, but good to know that the voice was made very clear.
  15. Interview over... here's hoping for good news

      It's fine, I'm just officially done doing retail jobs. Let the Highschool kids have it.

      Them too, what I DO plan on doing in working on my art skills and go into drawing, concept art/illustration and such. As well as learning better texturing techniques including mudbox/zbrush

  16. Emma I love your work and dedication to all of this. We do this out of the love for the games and want to contribute to the community.
  17. I think I could get behind that... and I might need some to get the stuff I want to get done.. done.
  18. I saw that too! I was like.. wait... what? What's going on?! I'm confused!
  19. Or experiment and mix both and have a wild time by seeing macho man and MLP dragons flying around?
  20. I'm calling it here and now, since Gabe basically endorses this mindset. Since Dota and other games started because of basically the total conversion(basically making a game from the main game's resources) we'll in time see that someone will take Skyrim and make a game, then sell it. I'm calling it right now, this is what's going to happen. The downside, unless they dig very deep and can manage to overwrite the settings in Havok at the engine level to where the full 16x16 quads for heightmap can be used without bugs, the sizes of workspaces will be minimal. HOWEVER Guild Wars 2 uses a system of massive zones, that all lead to one another via basically a "portal" This will be how a massive game could be done using Skyrim. hundreds of times more work but that's how it'll be done. I am wondering now though how many of these people own either a Liscensed version of 3ds max, maya, mudbox and other autodesk products right now before the buying mods, how many use unliscensed versions and finally how many use gimp/freeware. Because selling models made in an unliscensed version of 3ds max is against the agreement. How to prove that though would be difficult.
  21. Well now I can settle in and teach myself stuff in an all in one package.
  22. At this point people who know what they're doing and if they're on these teams and do not agree with the lead developer's choice to go for profit. We might be seeing them leaving the team and start up their own project that is completely freeware. All of that this is going for some is helping companies see who only want to do things for money. And some companies will hire them because greed rules. Other companies will hire them for the passion and either make good on that passion and let them create wonderful things, or drain them into a very jaded developer whom retires from the industry long before retirement age. Now I still plan on doing modding, and perhaps even go back to Oblivion in time and make some new mods for that, but also return to projects I started but never finished. As for future tes games, or moving onto fallout I don't know. However other games that offer modding capabilities whether in the rpg and fantasy genre, or something more modern I don't know. The fact that how the various sites sounds makes it clear. The rift in the community is split, and as bad as Nexus has been, the fact that they're remaining free and donation based, means a lot. We'll be looking for other places to host our mods and I'm certain that there'll be a compilation of sites that host mods for free. Edit: So TotalBiscuit has a video out talking about this whole thing and he has some sound points on this.
  23. There's a bad vibe I have with all of this. Modders can go "If you buy our premium version, you'll get exclusive content and content ahead of the free versions, or even content the free version will not have." I have a bad feeling.
  24. The only thing for SKSE as Mage mentioned would be to host it on non profit sites, as I believe Nexus is the only place that still isn't for buying. Donations yes buying no. So they could easily say they will not endorse any steam hosted mods. And could contact the modders via steam(as I'm sure there's tags to search for requirements) for a cease and desist. This whole thing is going to get ugly fast and may cause a huge rift in the community and may make things much more difficult for future mods and modders for current and future games. The implications will ring and echoe back to the developer in time.
  25. I can gaurantee with how some things go, there might be some cases coming up within the first three months of mod theft. Even though "technically" mods you make could be in a sense property of the company, any assets you make with this violates liscenses.. and even if you have a liscense you could still bring suit for theft of IP you yourself made. Steam is going to have to do a lot of policing and research into making sure mods belong to the owners and aren't being ripped off and someone else profiting.
