The Elder Scrolls Megathread XV: A Song of Ice and Draugr - Games

[QUOTE=SadisticGecko;43265074]It's even worse downloading large files. I spent two hours yesterday downloading a 500 meg mod because the servers were chugging along at the speed of smell. 84 kb/s is not cool when I can usually hit nearly 300.[/QUOTE] Honestly I think theyre doing it on purpose to try and get people to buy premium, if the situation doesn't improve I am tempted to make a thread on the nexus calling modders to move to a new site. It probably wouldn't do shit and will get me banned off the site, but this is just ridiculous.

Trust me, it's not faster at all right now since all the servers including the premium ones are slow as fuck. I can't even download more than one mod at a time, and usually it takes 2 minutes for the mod to start downloading.

I've also had the issue of them refusing to start downloading.

Actually can you even log in with the nexus mod manager yet? I know they blocked it from accessing their servers when it was DDoSing them.

I'm seeming to have a problem with LoD, more so than normal. Whiterun doesn't even appear untill I'm pretty close up onto it, after this reinstall I just did. Anyway to fix this?

It is quite retarded. [quote]I'm seeming to have a problem with LoD, more so than normal. Whiterun doesn't even appear untill I'm pretty close up onto it, after this reinstall I just did.

Do you have the draw distances maxed in the video options ingame? Since everything is maxed out though, I think steam fucked up and didn't download all the files it needed to. especially judging by that 2nd picture, the lod keeps base models there, while that is just blankness.

Re-verifying my game at the moment to see if that will help. [t]http://i.imgur.com/wutzLoY.png[/t]

No real Arena update for now, as I'm back to doing side quests for cash. I have around 90,000 gold now, making me only around 170,000 gold short of being able to afford a full set of Ebony Armor.

[QUOTE=ROFLBURGER;43265097]That actually sounds smart. Would this work in Oblivion if you're planning to use magic only or would I have to spend an hour hoarding ingredients after each Oblivion Gate dive[/QUOTE] Sort of, I've done it but you kinda get screwed early on in the game and magic skills are really hard to level up. Not sure if the stores in oblivion have infinitely restocking stuff There's also more fortify magic stuff in oblivion so having a huge pool isn't as important... whereas in morrowind if you want to cast some massively destructive "kill every living thing in the room" spells you'll need a huge magicka pool.

I was wondering: are you able to legitimately get Indoril Armor without causing ordinateurs to attack you? If so, are you given it through joining the temple?

Jesus Christ, all I did was add Dat Grass and Somber ENB. Now even the Skyrim Launcher stops responding and if I use skse_loader even the startup movie stutters at the rate of 1 frame per 10 seconds. What the [I]fuck.[/I]

Did you ignore my advice, lie to me and make yourself the mage birthsign?

Goddammit Arena just started throwing Vampires at me. Part of me thinks I should go on an artifact hunt to see if I can get the Oghma Infinium again and use all 50 points of it to boost my willpower so that my magic defense is not shit. Or just use the 15 "resist fire" potions I bought more often. Or both?

Has anyone used this mod? [url]http://www.nexusmods.com/oblivion/mods/44337/[/url]

[QUOTE=_Maverick_;43269098]this breaks all the time for me cannot use bows with it, magic looks broken as fuck and two handed weapons just look wrong other than that though it's a really sweet mod[/QUOTE] I wonder if it's possible to have it so you have the usual first person animations but you have legs under you, sort of like in the first Left 4 Dead. It seems like it'd be a good solution to the animation issues that come from it but I'm not a modder or anything so I don't know if it's a viable option.

I never understood why so few games seem to have first person legs. Maybe I'm just spoiled because the first FPS I played was Halo and that had them, but it always seemed odd to me when a game doesn't have them - especially these days, when it's not really a case of "well technical limitations..."
