Bloodskal Blade's energy blade is from power attacks (vertical from standing power attacks, horizontal from strafing power attacks).

Rising Dragon · 2013-03-04, 21:28

Yes, I'm well aware of how it's supposed to work. My problem is that it won't work regardless of what I do and regardless of what's been installed. It's frustrating.

I'll wait instead until 1.9 gets finalized. For now I'll have to live with a 17mb long-loading gamesave, and a Khajit camp with no Khajit outside Whiterun.

Hey, does anyone know of any mods that sort of reward you for reaching the max level of a certain skill?

Sort of like the skillcape system in Runescape if any of you played it, when you get level 99 of a skill, you get a unique-looking cape that has an image of the skill on the back of it, that can perform a special animation that can only be performed while wearing the cape, it didn't really have any other purpose(prayer bonus, which was decent, but there was better capes) and was more of a status-symbol and gave you a sense of achievement....of sorts.

Is there anything like that for Skyrim that isn't like, broken or overpowered?

Rising Dragon · 2013-03-08, 20:26

Well, it's not for maxing out skills, per se, but you can try Achieve That!, which gives a number of in-game Achievements for you to accomplish, some of which have minor boons (extra skill points, an extra perk point or two, some slight damage buffs, etc).

Argh, I give up. Spent the better part of three days trying to get Open Cities to play nice with my mods. I just can't get it to work.

Fuckin' Xbox. Fuckin' Microsoft. Damnable memory gimping.

You're trying to run the mod on the 360, and is it completely updated?

Yes I'm running on 1.8 and no I'm not trying to run it on the 360. But the game being built for the 360 meant that it had to fit in system constraints and thus we got the five walled cities in Skyrim, instead of everything being out in the open like in Morrowind. So I curse Microsoft for that, because it hurts things for PC users.

sa547 · 2013-03-09, 20:24

I see. I haven't tried it yet, but given that I have mods that tweak Whiterun and Markarth, I think I'll install Open Cities in my next playthrough.

Rising Dragon · 2013-03-09, 20:48

I wanted to use it for Command Dragon, which allows free control over tamed dragons, and given the walled cities...

But no, Bethesda had to be busy fellating Microsoft and the Xbox 360...

I like the way you think. Yeah, I fully grasp that "programming for the lowest common denominator" seems to have gripped the industry -- doesn't mean I'm amused by the concept when good programming practice would mean "check your run time hardware environment and dance accordingly".

Rising Dragon · 2013-03-09, 20:56

Well, as it stands, I'd been trimming the hell out of my load order, and optimizing the hell out of my .ini files, but in the end it just wasn't good enough; too much I want to keep to use it.

sa547 · 2013-03-10, 21:15

All right, my gamesave's been screwed by the phantom quest that I was forced to pick up someone else's gamesave and edit it to match almost that of the old one. The tricky part was to get the exact same facial features, so there was the new RaceMenu, which allows me to load the old gamesave, type the modified showracemenu command, "save" the face data to Clipboard (and in turn paste it to Notepad), before going over to the new gamesave, open the racemenu, and from the Clipboard, load the data. All this without the hassle of older methods.

THIS MOD HAS FINALLY ARRIVED! Now if only there should be an uninterruptible connection or a high-speed mirror... I want to be there and swim.

This guy on the Nexus is having some trouble with mods, and player created elves come out all messed up for him. He posted a pic. This is supposed to be a Dark Elf.

So of course, I had to make this.

Rising Dragon · 2013-03-11, 15:10

He forgot how to Dunmer, obviously. :k

It's Far Cry with swords and magic.

Best rationale for skimpy wear I've seen so far (applied to the whole population).

I'm using it now, and it's really hot. Probably the best gaming equivalent of a great vacation. I also coupled it with Project ENB to bring it to colorful life.

I find it funny and sad that lore-mongers have gone up in arms, thinking it's a travesty.

I'd only recommend it after a few dozen play throughs in the snow. Just for a change of pace. But it is pretty neat looking - and brings up the notion of an equatorial RPG as a nice change of pace.

sa547 · 2013-03-18, 18:55

New update is out now, which means I have to update the rest of the game, plus unofficial patches and SKSE.

Hope it works with my third playthrough.
