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

[QUOTE=1chains1;43481746]Wait, you're telling me they gave it a finite number of pages....? Like, I understand the quest for immersion and all, but why would you limit the number of pages you can write in?[/QUOTE] Probably script limitations.

hey guys what did the wood elf real estate agent say to her dark elf client "i like what you've [i]dun[/i]mer with the place"

[QUOTE=arthuro12;43465958]Sup I have the shittiest pc of Facepunch and I use this: [url]http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/15425/?[/url] To get something like this: --snip-- Good luck![/QUOTE] So far so good. I haven't messed with the settings, but so it already looks better and I'm not noticing much performance hit. Most of my performance loss is in Frostfall and Hunterborn, really. I'm thinking about dialing back some of the settings on Frostfall to see if that helps. And the newest version of Hunterborn is supposed to improve performance somewhat. Can't wait until I get that new rig.

[QUOTE=Kurahk;43481608]Damn, I'm almost out of pages for that Journal mod. It's amazing how much more tolerable it is to write down what you've done over the past few days than it is to let your actions go forgotten.[/QUOTE] I stopped using it after 3 in-game days :v:

Oh, we're doing puns? What do Orcs use to keep their armor from chafing? Orichalcum powder.

If the Pink Panther were in TES (as a Khajiit), his theme song would be "Dunmer. Dunmer. Dunmer dunmer dunmer dunmer..."

how did cyrodiil become a temperate forest? well, there was a council to decide back then, but they couldn't come up with any good suggestions until Tiber Septim chimed in

chim isn't pronounced chime, but I'll give that one to you because it put one of those "wow that's really stupid" smiles on my face.

why were the sailors of the Katariah so upset? they had discovered that they lost their mede

What is the thinnest book in the world? Heros of Blackmarsh

Man my game is so fucked right now. Crashing everywhere for some reason. Wonder if its because I installed the full version of skyrim floral overhaul recently, or its script related issues I don't think its video memory or anything like that because I've reduced all my textures down to vanilla res not to mention things run nice and smooth. I wonder if its the memory setting in enblocal.ini. I only put how much vram my video card has, not the full amount of ram in my system, since it implies its for video ram (was getting infinite load screens on the latter).

Any mods to makeskyrims combat more pleasing?

[quote= Skywind Team]At this stage, Skywind is not available for public release anymore, due to its very alpha state. [/quote] I'm having a hard time appreciating why they would do this. I reformatted today and didn't have enough room to back up my old copy of 0.9 so I guess that leaves me shit out of luck for no particular reason.

How is an elf guard called? [sp]An Haltmer.[/sp]

Since you all started posting novajam vids.. This one was posted before one time, but it's just fucking gold. [video=youtube;_WEiacIb8VM]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_WEiacIb8VM[/video] wabbajack my skyforge I'm dead.

I'm OK with this though, I'd honestly rather play it when it's finished.

[QUOTE=war_man333;43484097]I was just looking at the same thing haha. I'm OK with this though, I'd honestly rather play it when it's finished.[/QUOTE] It's their mod and I totally respect that, but I just don't see how anyone benefits from this.

The Beta starts at 11pm. Guess I didn't want to sleep anyway...

It makes everything so much better.

[QUOTE=DChapsfield;43482688]how did cyrodiil become a temperate forest? well, there was a council to decide back then, but they couldn't come up with any good suggestions until Tiber Septim chimed in[/QUOTE] Then the TESO devs come along and shit on that, saying it was never a jungle to begin with. That was a "transcription error". I'm really hoping TESO is not counted as TES canon.

I love Novajam's videos, but with all the glitches they get I sometimes wonder if it's more the fault of their rig than the mods. They're getting glitches with nothing active but the official DLCs; glitches I've never encounterd. So I don't have trouble believing that [i]some[/i] of those mods run better on their creator's rig than on NJ's.

So of course with that amount he'll definitely have bugs. But thing is, it's not about how bug-free those mods are, it's about how poorly made and dumb they are. You wouldn't call "wabbajack my skyforge" a bug, right?

The dialog in some... no make that nearly all... of those is horrid. The 10 minute auto-pilot horse ride through nothingness is stupid. But sometimes he draws attention to bugs that I don't know can be assumed to be the mod author's fault. Things like lighting or AI.

[QUOTE=Araknid;43485409][img]http://i.minus.com/iIdYHkEZNA6QR.gif[/img][/QUOTE] My first thought was that someone imported a character model from Oblivion into Skyrim as some sort of horrific joke monster. But even the most diabolical, sadistic, psychopathic monster wouldn't subject anyone to having to look at Oblivion's character models any more than they have to.

[quote]The planets are the gods and the planes of the gods, which is the same thing. That they appear as spherical heavenly bodies is a visual phenomena caused by mortal mental stress. Since each plane(t) is an infinite mass of infinite size, as yet surrounded by the Void of Oblivion, the mortal eye registers them as bubbles within a space. Planets are magical and impossible. The eight planets correspond to the Eight Divines. They are all present on the Dwarven Orrery, along with the mortal planet, Nirn. [/quote] Have I said how much I love TES Lore?

[QUOTE=imadaman;43486327]Have I said how much I love TES Lore?[/QUOTE] Things like this is what I love in TES, when lore is truly written as lore - I just crushed so hard on the god/planet concept when I first encountered it, it's so original, clever and mysterious
