[QUOTE=_Maverick_;52541800]I'm always torn on which perks and skills overhaul to use.
What do you lot use.
(I've always gone perkus maximus as a default)[/QUOTE]
I always play with Requiem personally, but not a lot of people in this thread like it
I use Ordinator currently. I like Perkus Maximus but so many reports of technical problems put me off. I kept my eye on it for a long time, but as T3nd0 isn't modding anymore I doubt much will be fixed.
I use Ordinator because PerMa requires clean saves and I didnt feel like giving up my main save file or getting it corrupted somehow.

Honestly I use PerMa because I hate Ordinator, SkyRE, and Requiem is just Requiem. I've only come across 2 bugs and it's the focus enchanting perk, and nor being able to reset all the perks with a respec potion despite them being PerMa perks.
Since my current character is just a warrior, I've declined the use of any perk mods in favour of uing Ultimate Combat, attack commitment, and TK Dodge/Hitstop. If I were to make a more generalised mod list, it would include [URL="http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/68587/?"]Path of Sorcery[/URL] to buff up magic but even I think it's a bit too much guff. I guess the idea of it is that you can make one school carry a character rather than take a bit of everything like vanilla mages need to. Also seems good for a paladin character.

I always look at these perk overhauls and none of them really grab me. They always seem over-complicated or gimmicky.
A full Sheva post soon, but first I want to post some pre-Winter Overhaul postcard shots I've taken over the years.

Also, who here had that orc waifu?[/QUOTE]
I think you might be talking about me

Maybe, I wanted to know what body and maps you used now that I know how they work.
So I had the idea of making a short miniquest within the mod that builds trust between the follower and the player. I wanted some monster to kidnap the follower, and I noticed that there was a daedric spider asset.

"oh cool, i mean she looks like waifu material but if I make her skin pale as fuck and make her hair black as night I can make her look menacing"
I spent the last 2 hours making a level then I remembered that this mesh was made by the same guy who made a vagina mesh for an android model
[URL="http://i.imgur.com/WdS6A1G.png"]lo and behold it has tits so i can't use it[/URL]
You know, there's only one kink I don't think Skyrim can cater to.
Four-armed girls.

We shall see.
Since I really liked the idea in my head I'm not going to abandon the idea and instead just make it so she insta kills you via telekinesis or some bullshit if you get too close.
[t]http://i.imgur.com/VYotoi5.png[/t]
Made her less attractive but more empathy-grabbing with her gloom. She basically steals the follower while he's sleeping, his screams wake you up from your own sleep and you have to track it down into this claustrophobic cave section, not knowing what you'll be up against.
You'll figure out it's just an lost spider daedra just wants a friend. You'll have the option to kill it or spare it. If you kill it you're rewarded will an evil spell since you [URL="http://en.uesp.net/wiki/Oblivion:Ten_Commands:_Nine_Divines"]disobeyed Stendarr's command[/URL]. If you spare it, you'll probably get a lesser reward or something.

Just because it has tits doesn't mean you can't use it. Just crack that thing open in your favorite model editor and just flatten that shit.
[QUOTE=_Maverick_;52544603]We shall see.[/QUOTE]
I'll buy you a £7 game on steam if you can find a mod with that kink that's animated. Not just some wear armor conversion that adds a cosmetic pair of arms, though I'd be impressed if there's even that.

Alternatively, fuse her hair with the booby. It worked for Quelaag in Dark Souls

Why do tits mean you can't use it?
[QUOTE=GHOST!!!!;52545092]Why do tits mean you can't use it?[/QUOTE]
Avoid having to categorise his mod as 18+ on Nexus most likely
It seems a lot easier to flatten the nipple or even just making it skin-coloured than having to make weird gameplay design to avoid it. Someone's inevitably gonna get close enough to see it anyway.
Those are some pretty nice spider nipples though, not going to lie.

That's what Mortal Kombat is for.

But I need to turn Skyrim into any and every game.
[QUOTE=GHOST!!!!;52545092]Why do tits mean you can't use it?[/QUOTE]
Like someone said I want to avoid sexual content. Sexual content in my mod will just be too distracting.

I might pay someone $2 to do it for me since I don't even know where to start. My friend refused when I asked.

Meant to post this here and forgot; [URL="http://monkeytruth.net/forum/index.php?topic=24.15"]an interesting (and very rambling) post by Kirkbride back in 2009 on an old Elder Scrolls forum, talking about how he came to work for Bethesda.[/URL]
It entertains me that, at least at the time, though they got along well he only remembered Todd as Todd (Someone) :v:
I can delay no longer. Finally, it is time for Sheva.
Now, it's been a long time. There may be some new faces amongst us so a reintroduction is probably a good idea. So, who's Sheva?
[quote][img]http://i.imgur.com/abiakQs.jpg[/img]
This is [URL="http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/82675/"]Sheva[/URL], the daughter of a Redguard mercenary and Khajiit merchant. She was born and raised in Elsweyr but her mother insisted she learn of Redguard cultural traditions as well. After a cultural identity crisis, Sheva believed the best way to discover herself was to travel to Hammerfell herself to experience the 'motherland' firsthand. Due to Skyrim's ongoing civil war, less troops are watching the western border there which would allow Sheva to slip into Hammerfell with less beaurocratic interferance. Unfortunately, the civil war would be more of an inconvenience than a help as Sheva was mistaken for a Stormcloak mercenary after wandering into an ambush set by the Imperials to capture Jarl Ulfric Stormcloak himself.[/quote]
I wanted that to be shorter, but oh well... She's the character this thread suggested I play so I wanted to keep people updated on what's going on. She may look a little different this time. That's because I witched from XCE and the basically unsupported Dream Girl body (because I found a Redguard-ish clothes mod for it), to UNP Skinny and Mature Body texture which I won't link because boobs and more. She looks less South African and more North African/Arabic with this skin texture but I guess they're meant to be like a real version of what the rotten tomato Reguards in Oblivion were meant to look like.
This is the second time I've "rebooted" the Sheva story due to wanting to add or subtract mods to the game. So just what am I playing with? Well, the big thing this time I'm playing with [URL="http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/61711/?"]Skyrim Winter Overhaul[/URL]. It overhauls Skyrim to be all wintery.
[quote][img]http://i.imgur.com/qhNGcsx.jpg[/img][img]http://i.imgur.com/7fySy2U.jpg[/img][/quote]
I'm also playing with [URL="http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/27563/?"]Wet and Cold[/URL], to really sell the chilly atmosphere. I have other mods but I'll post the full list another day, there's a lot and not all of them have .esps.

This is the Skyrim intro. Sheva did the things that happen in the Skyrim intro. Not much else to say this time[/quote]
This post is getting long so I'm going to leave on that open note. There will be more little posts of funny stuff, and more big posts of story stuff.
I was bored and wanted to see if there was any riddles to the elder scrolls or meaning to it's texture. There's only been thing "solved" so far and that [URL="http://i.imgur.com/xxcJykO.gif"]the thief's constellation can be overlaid with the scroll to match some of the points.[/URL]
[URL="http://i.imgur.com/WuH8W7u.gif"]I looked at the skyrim's nebula file and I also found the thief there (I think) but it's skewed from another direction.[/URL]
The main menu background is based on sovngarde skies, which can be seen in game. Probably doesn't mean jack shit and the scroll thing was probably only meant as an easter egg since the elder scrolls texture is based on the one you obtain in the thieves guild quest.

Is Akatosh's inverse spell a concentrate spell? Because using a weapon while casting is a pain and limits options. A lesser power, constant ability, or a fire-and-forget self-cast would be better.
Maybe call Frenzy Cloak, Spreading Hate or Wave of Hate or something like that. Call Kynareth's Necrotize or something sicknasty. Add a bit of spice, you know? Right now it's a bit dry. I can understand the descriptions needing to be clear but you can play around with the names.
