Waiting for CK

The TESV-Skyrim player community has been awesome so far in terms of coming out with mods. The Creation kit that was scheduled for a January release is still slated for a January release, however with just 5 days left in January, seems to be likely to have a launch schedule slip.

While the game itself is pretty awesome out of the box, and most would most likely not miss the various mods that are up for grabs right now at the nexus, those that get the mods are spared situations like the one depicted in the graphic below:

Of course all the console players will miss out on the mods and stuff, but hey, you dont "need" the mods to enjoy the game. Just that some of these are really good and enhance the enjoyment factor a bit more.

The mods i have running right now are:

  • Beauty Faces for females by necKos 131 ---- Makes for a better non ugh experience.
  • Dovahkiin Hideout --- Adds a super basement to your home, with doors to all your homes. So like a common basement spanning Skyrim, with loads of stuff and libraries and bookshelves and stuff
  • SkyUI --- Makes for a better inventory and trade UI
  • Tyatnis Mod -- crafting, non horse ride-able beasts such as mammoths and bears and wolves and saber cats... Better spells graphics..

Yes that enables me to craft arrows.

The gripe i have witht he delay of the CK is that, without it, modders are unable to create navigational meshes, or NPC pathing routes if they are creating a new Zone or building or area in their mod. So your NPC cannot follow you into the Dovahkiin Hideout [actually a blessing at times]. This pathing would be a cinch with the CK, or so the game makers tell us.

So yeah, waiting for CK.

I want to get an arrow crafting mod, carry a half ton of dwarven !@#$ out of ruins on my back, then make thousands of arrows.

You need to install the Tytanis Mod. Craft the following:

Metal Arrows | Metal Fire Arrows | Metal Lightening Arrows | Metal Frost Arrows

also other arrows categories like Daedric etc. So yeah, the Dwarven arrows are covered.

Just be careful while rendering stuff down to metal scrap [for making ingots], your crafter stuff shows up in the list as base stuff. For example if you made an uber Ebony Bow Legendary, enchanted it with a Soul Trap and Life Steal and named it "Outreach Program" and went to a smelter, and started melting stuff you dont need to make ingots... your Outreach Program would show up as "Ebony Bow" :( you can see how that can be disasterous. On the other hand, the mod lets me ride Mammoths and also break down wooden bowls into firewood for making charcoal, which i then combine with Blisterwort to make Blackened Blisterwort salad which in turn gives me health regen when consumed. XD

You do need to try out this mod. This Tytanis team is also now working with the Skynet team to make Skyrim Co-Op. You hear that? There is already a Skynet mod out, wherin people can join your game, but they show up as jockey short wearing nude nords. But hey, it is the concept, and it works.

I'm running Tytanis Mod, Quality World Map- with roads, Realistic Water Textures, Skyrim HD- 2k Textures, and SkUI.

I built a computer specifically for this game, and it is quite epic. Can't wait for the rest of the needed mods to come out, something like OoO or Francesca's Mod from Oblivion
