Greetings. For the first time I am adding new creatures for a mod of mine, and now I just realized how different it is from Oblivion. In the Construction Set, it was just to open the creature window and there is a "model list" with all the meshes available. In the Creation Kit there is no model list in the creature (=actor) window, but there is an "actor body part data" section. Yes, I created a new body part with a new mesh, which is already there in the meshes/actors folder... now what? How do I add the "new body" for my new creature?

I use "realistic Lighting", it is just perfect for dungeons and caves. It makes torches and night vision spells much more useful than in the vanilla game.

Greetings. I have figured out that many people are splitting their mods into .esp and .esm files. I have seen some people claiming that this reduces CTDs. Is that true?? Splitting mods in .esp and .esm files makes them more stable?? Why?? And how should I do the trick??

A dwemer slot machine would not be lore-unfriendly, it will be another dwemer device. I miss an arena similar to Oblivion´s one. Actually, a fighting pit would fit in well.

Well, still invisible in game. Any other idea?

Yes, I did. Are you saying that in Skyrim copying one cell to start a new dungeon causes this? They are invisible ingame, not in the ck´s render window. I will try to fix this the way you told me. Thanks for your help.

Greetings. I am trying to get my first dungeon in Skyrimn done, but now there is another problem: the cave cells I tried to make have invisible meshes all around, until I get very close to them. It is as if there was no dungeon at all in several spots, then when I get closer everything shows up. The nord ruin cells I made worked just fine, but all cave cells I tried to make showed this problem in some areas. Any ideas about what may be causing this?

Greetings. Here I am again, asking for help. I cannot add water to my dungeon in the CK. I click on the "has water" option, set the water height, then whenever I exit the "common Data" dialogue box, it resets water height to 0 and my dungeon has NO WATER AT ALL, even at "0" height. Am I doing something wrong? Is adding water to a dungeon very different from Oblivion´s CS and I have not figured it out?

Aaaah, just fixed it! Thank you VERY MUCH Windmill Tilter !!!

Actually, it is EVEN worse than this, StarX: the "data Files" option at the Skyrim launcher screen is not highlighted, I cannot even access the mod options through the game launcher. I tried to activate an .esp file using Skyrim Mod Manager, and it didn´t work: it is like my game was crippled, with no modding options.

Greetings. I´ve got an issue here... a terrible one... my skyrim is version 1.4, I have got the cK... but the "game files" option in the Sk launcher do not highlight!!! I know, I know... I should set "bEnableFileSelection=1" in my game preferences file. I have already done it, and it STILL does not work!!! I play Skyrim in my notebook, which is most of the time offline. Only recently I updated it, from initial release straight to version 1.4. Now my new PC is coming and I am eager to mod it, the CK looks like it works fine for me... but I cannot play any .esp mods!!! I would be very pleased if someone could help me with this issue.

Just loved your art, mainly the skeletons. Have you considered doing something similar with the Draugr? Keep it up and I hope it will be available for us soon!

Thanks a lot, I´ll try this!

Greetings. I need some help with AI packages. I know how to make NPCs "go to sleep" at any time I want since I put some beds near them at the same cell/worldspace. But how do I make an NPC which spends most of the day outside his house go inside it, look for a bed and sleep on it--- and when sleepy time is over, he goes outside the house again?

Greetings. I was thinking about this alot, so I decided to explore your opinions. I can fill my mods with resources, adding to my dungeons lots of new clutter and eyecandy because it is my HD I am jamming and not anyone else´s. However, when it comes to share my mods, I must think about it: People with slow Internet connection or low patience may feel disencouraged to download a big mod, and sometimes stuff included on it (like tapestry, rugs and paintings) add too little to gameplay. If you are going to DL a mod to play, what would you prefer? A faster download of a mod with the most necessary resources only, or a slow download of a mod full with eyecandy?

I liked them all, just didn´t like the orc. Resembles the Urukh-ai from the Lord of the Rings rather than anything orcish from the Elder Scrolls series. Too humanoid for an orc, maybe it will be up to modders to fix this.

Thanks ub3rman123, I´ll check Meo´s armor, in case I decide to do myself I´ll ask you for tips.

Thank you everyone. Now, one last thing: does anybody know where can I get a static armor?
