Amazon Warriors? Why do they have two breasts?
Hah, how perceptive.Elwro said:Amazon Warriors? Why do they have two breasts?
To be fair, it's nothing more than a retexture of the female Huntman's armor (or something) already in-game. Honestly, it's much better retexture. If Beth was going to make bikini armor in the first place it could at least have looked half-decent.dongle said:Nope. I'm a Graphic Whore, remember? I clicked the link, clicked on "screenshots", saw Amazonian bikini chicks in the first two shots, lost all respect for the mod author.Lord Chambers said:dongle, did you read the entire readme, or are you just parodying an ESF poster's reading comprehension?
You know what I'm finding? Turn all the graphics off, turn everything right the fuck down in all those video sliders and you know what you're left with? Crap. Utter crap. I think if I was looking at the kind of nice trees I had in Morrowind then yeah, I'd enjoy the mindless romping more. Riding around might actually be fun because I could look at umm.. the trees or something. Instead, I'm looking at grey blobs and bland landscape. It's actually quite awful how bad it looks with everything turned down. Morrowind looks better by comparison and fiven that, I'm not exactly sure why I need a super computer to run it considering Morrowind ran just fine.ViolentOpposition said:Homepage.
If there ever were a mod to redeem the fact that some of you may have spent money on Oblivion, it's this one.
Like the Khajit and the Elf to her right are wearing in the pic I linked? I have to confess I missed those in the stock game. I suppose it wouldn't surprise me tho. . . .Monica21 said:To be fair, it's nothing more than a retexture of the female Huntman's armor (or something) already in-game.

I honestly think Morrowind looked better than Oblivion. Certainly for it's time, and even on an ultimate scale in some ways. I might have actually felt Oblivion was worth the time I spent playing, if it weren't for all the graphic glitches and bland design.DarkUnderlord said:Morrowind looks better by comparison and fiven that, I'm not exactly sure why I need a super computer to run it considering Morrowind ran just fine.
He should have polished off the leveled list mod, maybe add some other transparent fixes, and called it a day. If he wants to do a B00bie Warriorz mod, fine, but keep it separate.
I missed the Elf, but I think the Khajiit is wearing the retexture. Not sure what the Elf has.dongle said:Like the Khajit and the Elf to her right are wearing in the pic I linked? I have to confess I missed those in the stock game. I suppose it wouldn't surprise me tho. . . .
I have to agree with this. I'm not sure what people are talking about when they talk about how bad the graphics are, but I think even with the stock graphics the game looks perfectly fine (although it may just be nostalgia talking). The scenery is far more interesting than trees-grass-trees-grass-trees. I'm one of those people who even liked the Ashlands.dongle said:I honestly think Morrowind looked better than Oblivion.

Hey, there's a fair test of pretty on pretty much any game. The test certainly succeeds (or fails, depending on your perspective) with Doom 3. Turn the graphics down and it's not only ugly as shit but still boring.Turn all the graphics off, turn everything right the fuck down in all those video sliders and you know what you're left with? Crap. Utter crap.

This pack adds “Spell Tomes†to the world’s random treasure. These books grant you wondrous and powerful magic spells, just by reading them! Now Mages will also gain instant benefits by treasure hunting. Friend and foe alike will bow in awe before your power.
I guess there is a reason for the existance of the puking smiley on TESF.
Yeah, I had heard of that early on, back when I was still considering modding this game. Haven't been paying attention of late.VenomByte said:Except of course, that with Oblivion's new CS & mod system, you literally cannnot merge mods & levelled lists, or have them share global variables/scripts/objects etc. Thus if he made the two mods separate, it would be impossible to use them together correctly..
Well, that makes sense. If two mods try to edit the same thing I can forgive the engine for being a bit confused. Part of the price we pay for the easily plug-able in-able game.VenomByte said:If the mods edit two completely different levelled lists, they'll probably work fine.
However, consider that to make Oblivion playable you need to completly overhaul every levelled list in the game (a la OOO).
Therefore, if you also want to use any other mods which alter any list, you'll break it.
I'm posting on the CODEX, remember? :DRK47 said:Dongle, you're so negative.
Don't forget, at Lord Chambers' insistence I read the whole entire readme, whew. :D I think the things he did in the "fix" category look well thought-out and sound like an improvement. I think the "additions" category look childish and would ruin the mod for me if I ran across them.RK47 said:You only based your assumption on screen shots, why don't you download it and try?
I don't think it's that excusable. Morrowind merged two different leveled lists with the same id, I think.dongle said:Well, that makes sense.

I can see that to truly fix the level scaling we need to edit every list. Still, edit them, fix some weapons/economy/ai/combat issues, etc. Maybe throw in options to fix the interface, stop spoilers in popups, disable the compass, etc. Do that without changing the flavor of the original. You'd have a mod that I'd definitely be interested in playing, well if I hadn’t already finished every quest and gotten sick of Oblivion inside of three weeks.
Now, add your Bikini Warrierz faction, your Steam-Powered Cyber-Whore faction, your Pirates-Who-Don't-Wear-Pants faction, ad nauseam. Deep immersion all around. :shock: Do these with separate dungeons, separate clan headquarters, separate leveled lists, separate spawn points, etc. Maybe sprinkle some stock mobs into your new locations so it's not quite so jarring. I wouldn't necessarily want to play those particular mods, but I understand they are quite popular.
I don't see any technical limitations to separating the two types of content.
I don't see any design advantage to bundling them and forcing it all on the player.
What the fuck? I guess you really like Oblivion.dongle said:Why don't I try it? I played Oblivion for three weeks. I talked to everyone there is to talk to, did every quest, became master of everything, explored every road and waterway, collected complete sets of every weapon and armor, picked every fucking nirnroot. I could start over, make my guy's nose a bit longer, and do it all over again exactly the same way, but I really don't care to.
Meh. I thought I'd give it a chance. Didn't have anything else I wanted to play.Lumpy said:What the fuck? I guess you really like Oblivion.
