  1. I don't understand what the effective difference is between asking someone to code a mod that hamstrings another mod's functionality and just not opening the MCM menu and removing the tattoo? It sounds to me like you're asking work out of someone to solve a problem that only requires self-control.
  2. UUNP vs UNPB

    Top Model is too skinny and too top-heavy at high weight, immediately making it worthless.
  3. getpos, setpos, getangle z, setangle z. Much more precise than trying to nudge your character into place over a still NPC. Basically what you do is select your character or the character you want to move in the console and type "getpos x" to get their position on the x axis. It'll tell you a number. Then you type "setpos x {number)" where the number is where you want them to be on the x axis. So, if I getpos x and it's x= -2366.80, and I want to shift them over, I'll type "setpos x -2350". You can setpos to the hundredths place, so you have very fine control of where your character will end up. Same goes for setpos y. Getangle is a little trickier. Your character can face any of 360 degrees. You can getangle z to see what degree they're facing, and tweak it to your needs. But they won't turn if tai is toggled off! As for free camera, use tfc 1 instead of just tfc. tfc 1 freezes time, basically, so no one will get pushed away until after you tfc again. It makes shots in the rain or shots that rely on animated things difficult, but it's reliable.
  4. Story Driven Adventure Mod Req.

    Claudia's Little Secret, gotta be. Really good mod. Good characters, solid writing, good comedy, all together enough to keep me playing even after it turned into a futa-infested cesspool. But thankfully, due in part to my pushing, it has a lot of options to avoid futa if you prefer, just at the cost of a good chunk of the content. I'd recommend it to anyone who wants a good, funny, sexy quest mod for Oblivion. Technically the mod Sexy Maid of Chorrol (now known as "Maids 1") is also in continuity with Claudia's Little Secret, and if you play with the explicit stuff on, is much in the same vein. The creator is continuing the story in the Skyrim mod Maids 2: Deception, but it's a much, much darker mod with all the adult aspects of the previous entry amputated in favor of edgy grimdarkness. Might be a good mod, I don't know. The author is really dedicated to making a quality product, though, so it might be fantastic. I haven't played it since it strayed so far from its roots. I'd love to see a huge adult quest mod more like that come out. Closest thing we have at present is Bestial Essence, but as the name would imply, the subject matter is a bit more... niche. It's not as overtly a comedy as CLS was, but it's not really dark either, and it's every bit as good quality-wise as CLS. It's probably more similar to Sexy Maids of Chorrol, really, given its more serious subject matter spattered generously but not excessively with lighter moments. There's also Get Stripped, which isn't a huge quest mod so much as it is a series of small unrelated but thematically similar quests. Where Bestial Essence lacks the custom animations CLS boasts, Get Stripped shows its true strength in the sheer variety of small but immersive animations. It's not strictly a comedy either, and the Riften episode is a bit harsh, but it's not super dark either, striking a fine balance between light-hearted writing and public humiliation. Not an easy task. Neither is really a true contender for the title of "this generation's CLS" but they may scratch that itch well enough.

    "Taking screenshots".

    Oh golly, profanity on an adult website?! Perish the thought! But yeah if I were a guard I'd punish her by shaving her, too. I'd be doing both her and the public a huge service, and simultaneously destroying something she apparently loves (that will just grow back later so it's not really that cruel).
  7. Show your Skyrim counterpart...

    Besides the fact that it rolls off the tongue about as well as red-hot caltrops and makes me feel dumber for having read it? What was wrong with the word screenshot that the tumblr hive mind felt the need to replace it with an objectively worse term? At least waifu is an applicable term to what occurs in the screenshot tumblrsphere. The word screenarchery seems to have been invented just to make me angry. >:C *takes a deep breath* ...I have a lot of pent-up anger.
  8. [Humor] This should end the lore debate.

    Shit, there's more than just the Arena cover art to support skimpy armors in TES. Take, for example, some of the bras and dresses on this headache-inducingly blue sprite sheet ripped right from vanilla Daggerfall. Further, some of Skyrim's fur armors are hardly modest, and the Ancient Nord armor is revealing in a Star Trek TOS' William Weir Theiss costume design sort of way. In essence, anybody who says skimpy is inherently lore-breaking is stupid. That said, there's definitely an argument to be had about the style of said skimpy armor and how effective it should be relative to other armors - I can't speak for Daggerfall, but in Skyrim, skimpy is largely trash tier, except Ancient Nord, which is still overshadowed by Dragonbone and Daedric. Then again, Morrowind didn't have any, and Morrowind has been the golden rod against which all TES since have been measured, so I guess technically that means Skyrim failed in this regard where Oblivion, hilariously, succeeded? Right, sorry, humor thread. I'll see myself out.

    Try Puppeteer Master. It allows you to play the decapitation animation on your character or any NPC you select, though it also kills you. To delete your game, assuming you're installed through Steam, just open your game library, right click on Skyrim, and delete local content. I don't know what either of these things will accomplish in terms of your mental health, but if it keeps you from hurting yourself until you can find professional psychiatric help, then by all means, do whatever you want to your characters and game. And please, if that's really what this is about, seek real help. The internet is not real help, though reaching out to online friends may help you find support until you can move to solve your own problems.

    It's Manly Monday (On Tuesday)! And today I have a special treat for me. Not you, really, since you don't care, but I'm pleased with it and will show it off regardless. I decided to try Sculpt in RM3. And, praise be to Talos, a miracle happened. I FIXED MAECHEN'S FACE. Before: AFTER, MOTHERFUCKERS: Caution: Maechen Yv'Nalaryn, Master Conjurer within!
  12. Screenshot Discussion Thread

    Just don't let ENB become a crutch. It's no substitute for good composition. Having it will help with things light lighting and atmosphere once you find a setup that works for what you want to be doing, but none of that matters if you can't frame or compose a shot properly. Even for waifu glamour shots, you still have to keep your background in mind, make sure nothing distracts from the character or messes with where the eyes are drawn on the image.
  13. Show your Skyrim counterpart...

    Yeah, withdrawing to your blog is only going to accomplish one of two things - you'll get completely ignored since nobody even uses the blogs, or you'll wind up with a tumblr-esque clique atmosphere that may help you improve but will ultimately just lead to creative stagnation as all your friends fawn over your beauties and you all jack each other off while saying words like "waifu" and "screenarchery". Neither is a pleasant outcome. I like how TESAdventures has ours set up - we have a whole section for screenshots, where everyone can make a thread just for them. You still get situations where only friends may pop in, and active threads may bury less active ones, but it gives everyone a fair shake at being noticed rather than hoping you get reblogged to new people every so often. What you might consider doing is what Blarrgh suggested - do both. Only, don't post all your shots here. Post two or three and link to your blog for the full set. Consider it advertising.

    No transgendered individual would look like the ones on LL without a hell of a lot of hormones and surgery. So barring a genetic defect, which will have problems all its own and still not look like what people like to post, no, they simply can't be "born and raised" as such.
  19. (Discussion) Elves and Skyrim

    Depending on how you spin Conjuration and Alteration, it's not really unthinkable. For instance, Conjuration could conceivably be used to bind a smeicorporeal, partly-functioning phallus to oneself. Imagine a strapon, but with a dick that actually gets soft and hard and twitches and acts like a real dick, sans only the fluid secretions. For the more macabre-minded, one could just as conceivably preserve a full cock and balls, reanimate them via Conjuration, and have a living, functioning strapon. Alteration can take that a step further. We know as a school it can harden skin, alter weight, sense life, force sleep, create light, and even give one the ability to breathe water. If we take that, then take the term Alteration at face value, it's not a stretch to assume it could be used in body modification; say, growing horns, adding scales to one's skin, even... grafting or generating an entire cock onto someone that hadn't had one previously. It's not backed by any lore that I know of, so it's possible true manipulation of the physical may be beyond its reach, but it's not unreasonable to assume given what we know. I theorize the Galathil may utilize Alteration in addition to her "face sculpting" tools. Y'know, for a guy who despises futa, I seem to have put a fair bit of thought into how it would work. :\

    I was reading the ditz-speak thread for lulz when this popped into my head. I am now listening to it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SUiLrQ_eImc
  21. There are more kinds of Atronach than the fire one. Ice and Storm exist, though sex animations with at least the Storm one would prove... tricky. Though the results would be spectacular if it could be pulled off. Imagine - a flurry of flying dick-like stones tripe-penetrating the player while she grips two more!
  22. Post your sex screenshots

    I've probably said it before, but I'll say it again. I love how Arielle is written in these situations. This sort of thing feels like a natural part of her character. It doesn't feel forced or random like a lot of beast content does. She just enjoys doing stuff like this every so often, like it's fun for her and not that big a deal. Hell, even when she's outright getting raped, she just sort of... rolls with it. Ultimately she's having fun, so I have fun reading it and looking at your screenshots.
  23. No, they're correct. They don't seem that big when you're fighting them, but they don't rescale when sex initiates. They really are Rodents of Unusual Size.
  24. (Discussion) Elves and Skyrim

    Only within the context of The Elder Scrolls. I like Tolkien elves just as well as any other, they just have no place in TES.
  25. (Discussion) Elves and Skyrim

    LET'S PLAY "JEXSAM IS A LORE NERD AND DEFENDER OF ELVES" So there's definitely some contention among people as to the looks of elves in the Elder Scrolls series. Now, to get it out of the way first and foremost, everyone is entitled to their opinion, likes, and dislikes, and nothing said here can take that away from you. Mod as you like, and by God, more power to you, because that's why these games are great. Now here's why you're (mostly) wrong. Exhibit A: The Elder Scrolls 1: Arena's Dark Elves. These are some typical Dunmer characters from Arena. They're super low-res so there's a lot of room to argue fine details, but what's inescapable even in pixel form is the strong brow ridge on the male. Red eyes are also evident. We can clearly see the femnale is softer and more human-like, but retains some elven sharpness to her looks - a point for the pro-Tolkien crowd. Exhibit B: The Elder Scrolls 2: Daggerfall's Dark Elves Daggerfall is weird. We'll look at the above first, though - we see clearly that the male has a very strong forehead region, resembling but not identical to Skyrim's ridge setup. What is almost identical is the sunken cheeks and sharp, alien features. This is where TES's elves, or at least their Dark Elves, really come into their own look, moving away from the more traditionally elven Drow. The female, again, is softer, but still elven in style. Interestingly, her less pronounced brow ridges fits Skyrim's sexual dimorphism pattern as well, so it is arguable both ways that this is either a more humanoid example or a precedent for the Skyrim example. Again, low-res pixelness makes fine details debatable at best, but this is still a step up from Arena. The weirdness I mentioned comes in the form of Morgiah, a Dark Elf born to Queen Barenziah herself, yet she looks like... Both her parents were Dunmer, making her skin color bizarre. She's an exception to the grey-skinned rule established in Arena and otherwise upheld in Daggerfall. It's a small, single example, but still worth mentioning. Exhibit C: The Elder Scrolls 3: Morrowind's Dark Elves Here we see the modern Dunmer codified. Every detail I extrapolated from the pixels in earlier games is present here in still-kinda-low-res but much more concretely visible form. Pronounced ridges, alien features, almond-shaped eyes, males have stronger brow ridges while females are reduced I'll try and get a larger image but this is the game where modding really took off and I'm not familiar enough with teh vanilla heads to know modded from vanilla except in very obvious cases. Boy would I look silly if I used a modded image to support my vanilla elves stance... Exhibit D: The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion's Dark Elves PFFTHAAHAHAHAHAHAHA These were terrible. Objectively awful. Lazy, cheap human recolors with eyes twisted to be almond-y because elves. The middle image is the closest to previously established Dark Elves in the franchise, but it still visibly suffers from the recolor plague the elves in this game suffered. I'm almost amazed they bothered to give them red eyes since Alterm didn't even have gold and Bosmer lacked the solid color eyes they had since Morrowind. Exhibit E: The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim's Dark Elf concept art It's not what we got in-game, that much is obvious, but I link this because it is, as I have demonstrated, completely in line with the Dark Elves we've seen so far. What we actually got was this. Which is fairly close to the concept art, but we can see they definitely took the wrinkle stick to the women's faces somethin' fierce. So, in review, Skyrim's elves are not in any way wrong. The idea that there's only one way elves can look is wrong. TES's elves have been largely consistent in style through the franchise's entire run, with only Oblivion presenting anything blatantly different.   The fact that my game is modded does not preclude my liking how they handled the elves artistically in Skyrim. You might note my smoother elves, particularly Uthallu, the example to the right, is only marginally less angular than the concept art version of Skyrim's elves, and squares up well with Arena and Daggerfall's. Selune, the lefthand example, is definitely more of a departure, but still not egregiously outside what we can see in my above post. She does break a few rules I'd usually have in my Dunmer designs, but that's because she's a close friend's character originally, made specifically for me, and I choose to keep her as she was made. Keep in mind I also have a character that looks like this, and of course we can't forget the character that is also my avatar. Cherry-picking only the examples that support your claim isn't a good way to argue. EDIT: Cursory glances at other races because I have to sleep eventually. Altmer: Huh. These guys were definitely different when they started out, being dark-skinned to the point of basically just being a kind of proto-Chocolate Elves. They didn't find their look until Morrowind, which cemented them in the haughty high-society style and gold skin we see to this day. Again, Morrowind and Skyrim designs are definitely similar, with Oblivion being a stumbling block. Still, there's definitely an established look at this point, no real room for Tolkien fuckery. Bosmer: These guys have always been fairly generic, with their skin tone not really setting them apart. They didn't inherit their signature solid-color dark eyes until Morrowind, and even that got somewhat dropped for Skyrim, which allows you lighter browns and even greens. These guys are pretty much constantly in flux, with the only real consistency coming from Skyrim and ESO, which I haven't used for examples because it's not a main-line game. Same reason you don't see anything from Battlespire, if there even is anything from Battlespire to cite. Other than being short, dark-eyed and woodsy... you really could get away with a Tolkien look. Eh. 2/3 ain't bad.
