Glad that's sorted for you, JeanK!


Tracy, I do like that cabin a lot. I thought Anise was this sweet old lady for most of the game and then I picked the lock to her basement and saw what she had down there. Then when I came out she yelled "now you know my secret." and attacked me and I had to kill her. *lol* I've read that most of the containers in her house are safe for storage. I'd check that out though, just to be sure. The Creation Kit should be out this week or next Monday/Tuesday. I can't wait!

First thing I'm doing is making all the animals friendly to me. I'm so tired of going out to pick herbs and getting attacked over every hill by something. Then I'll start making houses. One of the first ones will be for sure a dwemer home, like the kind you see in Markarth. If any of you have been in The Hag's Cure, the alchemy shop in Markarth, it'll be a copy of that interior and I'll be adding a basement to it. I just want to get started. I haven't modded anything since November. I hope I'm not too rusty and that the Creation Kit is not too different from GECK, the kit for the Fallout games.

oooo - a video game where you get a sickness, and you have a choice of whether to have that disease for the rest of the game or to get cured of it....this sounds a lot like my life, folks. my best friend compares life to a video game regarding the choices we make on a daily basis. I'd like to know more about this disease in this game, how you get it, what it does to you, what it is, and how you get cured?

Hi Oldman , Thank you for the response. I will definitely choose one and start working on completing the quest.

I just found this on Youtube and thought I'd share.

That one makes me giggle, Annie. Especially the pickpocketing part. *lol*


I found a mod that actually disturbed me....

And for any members here that might be fans of the show Futurama, you'll probably get a really big kick out of this mod here.

Annie, that was funny
Thanks for the laughs.

Annie, that was funny!

Annie just wishes she were that clever herself.

AnneG -- thanks for sharing that one. I will remember to watch the skies!

How do you cast the "Clairvoyance" spell? It supposedly helps me to find quest targets. How close do I have to be before something shows up? I was thinking it would show like a light trail or something, but I don't see a thing.

Ok got that figured out. Now how can I assign hotkeys for weapons or spells? I need a strategy guide.

AnneG--that's cool that you've found that cabin too. I had the same thing happen btw...there she was in her robes looking all elderly and "normal" and the next thing I know I was having to kill her. Wow. LOL

Love your ideas for a Markarth-style house btw. I am in love with all of that Dwemer architecture in Markarth and so I'd love to see what you end up creating!

btw---since I am a total newbie to modding, I was wondering if sometime down the road I might get a few lessons and tips from you? I'd still love to learn the Construction Set for Oblivion, but also the Creation Kit when it comes out, and I just haven't known how to get started when it comes to modding.

Take care and btw, no pressure! If there is another person or website that gives modding tips I'll be glad to use that instead. I just figured since I was here GB-ing I'd ask.

Tracy

Of course, Tracy. I'll be happy to help. I'll look and find you a few good tutorials that helped me but I tell you, I learned most everything by good old trial and error. It almost seemed like cheating but I think I figured out things the most by opening up other people's mods and looking and seeing how they did things. I'd add things, delete things, change things around, just to get a handle on them. It can get overwhelming at times but it's so exciting to see the changes you can make in the game.

Hi fellow Skyrimmers
I have been lucky enough to get 23/24 of the unusual gems. The 24th, unfortunately, is in the Thalmur Embassy where I am unable to enter anymore. Hopefully the ps3 patch 1.4 will fix this quest ender.
Did anyone here find a way back in after the Diplomatic Immunity quest has ended? (I have seen the ones on YouTube and they are difficult).

Manxman, I just went back to see but I also can't get in. The door needs a key which I don't have. The guards outside don't carry a key. I tried entering through the cave where I exited before but I can't jump up on that ledge. I guess I won't be able to collect that b.stone either. When I was in the embassy before I was too worried about staying alive that searching for stuff that wasn't in the direct path just didn't enter my mind. I hope a patch will solve it. Guess i just have to wait.

Well you could always cheat using the console.

Anyway a funny thing just happened to me. I gave my follower, Illia, a circlet to wear so she wouldn't show that ugly hood all the time and it worked fine. But now, out of the blue, she shed her robe as well and is wearing nothing but her bra and panties (or it could be just shorts and halter). Anyway I thought it strange and maybe a while later will try to dress her again but for now I'm getting a kick out of it.

I thought of striping down to my shorts as well but it's a little cold in the snow capped mountains.

sounds like your playing the x rated version of Skyrim oldman
