The animals are always watching, leave none alive [editline]5th September 2013[/editline] See that butterfly over there? Cut it's throat before it squeals

[QUOTE=hypno-toad;42091518]The animals are always watching, leave none alive [editline]5th September 2013[/editline] See that butterfly over there? Cut it's throat before it squeals[/QUOTE] Actually, butterflies aren't animals, they are just activators scripted to move. In papyrus. I wonder how many times the guy who coded them mashed his head into the wall.

[QUOTE=Excalibuurr;42091594]Even the ants watch you.[/QUOTE] Absolutely nobody watches the ants, though

[QUOTE=hypno-toad;42091725]Absolutely nobody watches the ants, though[/QUOTE] I think everyone should zoom in on the texture of 2D ants gliding forward without moving their legs.

[QUOTE=hypno-toad;42091518]See that butterfly over there? Cut it's throat before it squeals[/QUOTE] I hunt them with Crossbows

I never noticed that this game had ants [editline]5th September 2013[/editline] what a waste of resources

So I went into Jorrvaskr and the dunmer & nord that are usually fighting instead decided to attack me. Noone cared that I killed them afterwards.

I've got a rudimentary fix for the CellRefLockEnter thread deadlock and can successfully load 21^2 cells (as opposed to my previous max of 13^2). EDIT: [url=http://i.imgur.com/qtJh1tg.jpg]uGridsToLoad 21[/url] [url=http://i.imgur.com/i8tLHNo.jpg]Extra contrast to show distant terrain[/url]

Anyone else get an ESO beta invitation?

I got an ESO invite, shame it's only for 3 hours.

[QUOTE=Sgt-NiallR;42092628]How molten will my PC turn? [editline]6th September 2013[/editline] HNNNNG DAT IMAGE[/QUOTE] That's 416 more cells than the game is made to handle. That should give you an idea of the framerate that comes with that.

[QUOTE=Altimor;42091450]Why do these damn Whiterun guards know that I killed someone in a secluded area and took his sword miles away I even get the "last witness killed" message[/QUOTE] [IMG]http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f278/katietiedrich/comic233.png[/IMG]

[QUOTE=cdr248;42087747]Khajiit have barbed penises tho[/QUOTE] There's nothing about that from that book on a Dwemer table near Riften. It goes in detail about inter-species marriage of playable races, but even with mythical beasts. I don't know whether I regret reading it finding out that or to be grateful my Restoration skill went up reading it. Related to which I regret, when the player picks his player character to be Khajiit, Argonian, or Alt/Bos/Dunmer, do you get disturbing imagery of how the player came to be? Dragonblood must have been craving some cat/lizard/weird action.

[QUOTE=cdr248;42087747]Khajiit have barbed penises tho[/QUOTE] For anyone curious... [url]http://uesp.net/wiki/Lore:The_Real_Barenziah_%28Daggerfall%29#Part_IV[/url] This specific part doesn't appear in the versions of The Real Barenziah in Morrowind and onwards. It just shows up as "This passage has been censored by order of the Temple".

Just got my beta key for ESO tonight!

Ok guys Skyrim is in your hands. What are the best texture/graphic mods i should use. Also which ones work best with the official high res pack? I just built a new computer today so it should handle anything.

Take a fully-loaded Morrowind Overhaul out for a spin - you should be able to get a cool 30 FPS in it. Luxury!

I guess i should of mentioned what game i was playing :v:

Take a look at [url=http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/11]STEP[/url] for it.

[QUOTE=The Jack;42095786]I was actualy thinking that upon arriving they'd imprisoned him for decades with some sort of cruel asian method.[/QUOTE] I always assumed neravarine just stayed in akavir after stopping whatever issue there was. There was too much treasure in his treasure larder in morrowind and they wanted to over start again

[QUOTE=Kommodore;42096070]Something about that dialogue seems off. "Akaviri" and then the randomly capitalized Civil War.

[QUOTE=Wlfius28;42096303]Perhaps the randomly capitalised Civil War served as a basing stone for a future plot point in the series? ie, they remembered it in time for skyrim?[/QUOTE] I'm thinking it's fake. Given all the spelling errors and weird grammar issues, and the fact that adding something like this to the game would take all of 5 minutes.

(Just thought I'd let everybody know) ... man using the construction set made me realize how much shit's in morrowind to do.
