[DarkRider]

Looks very good Shaddow. Your footpath leading up to the house could use a bit more landscaping, it's still quite rounded like the original hillside and a path should be more distinct, especially a cobblestone path. Take another look at the example shot of the footpath and try to lower yours a bit more to match. It helps to move the camera around from every angle, landscaping can look brilliant from one side and still be off from another.

Full marks for your credit challenge, creatively done, repost a pic of your path when you've tweaked it a bit more and I'll award the rest and move you forward. If you have questions let me know.

[Shaddow]

Thank you for the reply, I fixed it to the point it look hacked in to the mountain, I hope it looks better

Very good Aralore, you'll want to smooth your path a bit more and use a cobblestone path texture to earn full marks for this lesson. Remember to smooth sharp points and potholes to make a well defined path. You have a very nice start already just do a bit more smoothing and paint that cobblestone on and repost the finished image. Don't be discouraged, you're on the right track.

Hows this look?

Also I want to take a sec to thank you and the rest of TESA for doing these classes. I have played Oblivion for a lil while now on XBox 360 but recently got it on computer. I want to learn how to mod this game cause I got a few good ideas.

[DarkRider]

You're most welcome. Coming from 360 is exactly how I got started at this too. I hope you enjoy it as much. Your path is much improved, you are ready to move on to Lesson #4 full marks.

Looks great Rosswell, full marks! You may move on to Lesson #4

[Game3nder]

All done, except for this blasted grass! I have gone over it with the same "NoGrass" version of the texture at 100% opacity many a time now, but the buggers are still there in full force in this one section. I must be missing something, but I have no idea what.

Everything else is set:

Basement Pathgrid

MapMarker

Stables, barrels, lights, and a unicorn!

Trapdoor to Basement

Basement Studio

Basement Storage

Basement Microbrew

Animated Door

Back to House

And the underwater landscaping

[DarkRider]

Grass is the modders bane, there will be times you do EVERYTHING right and it's still stuck there. It tends to bleed over from neighboring cells and you don't want to alter those cells unless you absolutely have to. So, I'd say you've done all you can about that one.

Everything looks great, you can head to Lesson #4

[oT4YLORo]

There isn't much clutter on the front porch and on the basement; I'm aware of that. I know this may not sound too good but the house I'm building for now won't be used for anything; instead, I'll opt for the release on the final exam. I have been thinking about a nice cosy home for a while and the exam fits the bill.

[WhoGuru]

Not bad at all Paredon! You have missed one thing from the homework that I can see:

Add some shrubs near the bridge start from WorldObjects>Tree

Now, as for the using a different mod for your release project, I can't pass judgment on that. Rider should be back Sunday night or Monday and I'll leave that discussion between the two of you. I'm just here to sub in and make sure you guys don't get stalled while he's busy.

Get those shrubs in and post an updated screenie so I can award your points and pass you on to the next class.
