Amazing write-up Khettienna. And you put this tut together so fast! The amount of useful info is huge and very well organized. Since my next planned mod is going to be very large compared to my previous ones, I will be using this info as much as possible and I will also be using testers as well. Thanks for all the time you put into this. Come on CK!

Shouldn't have anything to do with an AI package for the PC. Adding the skill/spell to the creature/npc, and getting them to use it in combat should be all that is required. If the PC is hit by the spell, he should be affected by it regardless of the spell type.

Thanks much....did not know about the library! I think Dollparts will be a good asset aw well!

@ charlescrowe....I have the wiki's on speed dial...the main problem is that once I start, I click on link after link after link then 5 hours later realize I have spent way more time than I should have! OB and Skyrim have so much depth it is hard to absorb it all---let alone Morrowwind which I have never played. @Dollparts...that's exactly what I am looking for. In my previous mods I always added some sort of back story to flesh out my companions. But this time I want to go even deeper into her background/history. I will contact you with more info and see what you think. I just have a general idea, so there is a lot of room for ideas/fleshing out. Thanks for volunteering.

One of my faults as a mod author is that I get very wrapped up in building it, but take very little time to actually explore the game and all it's lore. I have played quite a few hours in Skyrim, but the bulk of it has been looking at locations for my mod, dungeons, buildings, studying the follower AI's and so on. While I understand a lot of what is going on politically and so forth, I am sadly lacking in the major lore such as Falmer, Daedric, Dwemer, and all the inter-race relationships/tensions, etc. I would like to find someone who is capable of writing a few story telling books, and who understands and can collaborate with me on the lore part. My mod will consist of a new companion/follower, a new castle/fortress and a newly discovered cave complex with quests to connect all of them together. The general story has Anora (the companion) and her family (originally tied to the Mages College/Winterhold) living in the castle that they are restoring. The father goes missing, and the PC comes to the rescue. Books I have in mind: Mother's Dairy---(she is now deceased). She (a disillusioned mage) talks about falling in love with a Winterhold Guard and moving to Forlorn Point (tentative name for castle) to follow his dream of restoring it. They have Anora and she talks about life up until she dies when Anora is young. Anora's Dairy: Picks up about the time her mother dies and talks about her surrogate mother raising her, life at the castle and stuff in general. Fathers Journal: a general log of the work going on in the castle (gives a quest clue). Other misc. books related to history/dungeon. Well, that's enough for now. If any of you are interested in helping out, just holler! I will be posting a full mod WIPz soon.

March is probably about right...if the CK comes out at the 1st part of Jan, that should be about right. Humm....beer with cookies.....I'll give it a shot! Thanks all!

Thanks for the welcomes....I love cookies! @greenwarden....you have a wonderful! voice---I may have a character for you to voice, if you have the time later.......I'm still writing the dialogue so it will be awhile yet.

Hello fellow modders. I have heard a lot about TESA over the last few years, but since I had not modded Oblivion (played it on Xbox and loved it), I had not really thought about joining until I saw a topic on the Bethsoft forums recently about your Voice Actors group. I have done a lot of modding for the Fallout games (making companions and player home mods) in which I used all in-game assets for voice and such. But it is now time for me to start creating original dialogue and other new things as I continue to grow and learn. I have known I would be modding Skyrim since I first heard about it because my true love of games is fantasy/scifi. After looking at all your group has to offer with the Enclave and such (I am a novice scripter with a lot to learn as well) I have decided to join. I didn't mean for this to be a wall of text. I hope to get to know a lot of you. And if I can be of help to anyone, I would love to hear from you. I am on the Nexus and Beth forums under the same name as here. Well, off to the other forums!
