Meridian posted:Yeah, I always thought that translating obscure weird metaphysics lore into a gameplay analogue was kind of stupid. Cheapens it, a bit. the concept of dragon breaks at the very least was invented as a way to allow multiple endings to be canonical. that's not to say all of the weird esoterica in elder scrolls is just gameplay concessions, but at the very least it's something that happened sometimes.

Oh sure, but I mean that's not saying "x thing happened in the lore so here so it means that entity y knows they're in a game." That's a cute way of unifying contradictory endings while at the same time actually using that to better iron out their setting. A Dragon Break, as an example, is still self contained within the lore, it doesn't lead to any sort of "Vivec can use the console" nonsense.

i dont recall that npc but probably, time travel via one means or another isn't really rare in TES though time travel isn't really anything like a dragon break. dragon break is more like reality snaps and you have multiple overlapping parallel universes occur at once only instances of capital DB dragon breaks I can think of are: Marukh and the alessians danced to break the dragon in first era leading to a thousand years of history getting lost Red Moment during the war between the nords, dunmer, and dwemer that lead to the dewmer disappearing with the numidium turning on Warp in the West with the numidium again turning on

I 100% remember it being a thing tho.

I mean, it's not like the Player Character being diegetically special because they're the Player Character has roots deep in PC gaming which went on to influence the language of virtual environments or anything.

Also, what am I to do with the bsa. files and JAR file which is there? I know how to run the JAR file with MO, but what am I supposed to patch with it? EDIT: Installation instructions have not said anything about the JAR file, so I just registered BSA and added a patch for MRM and MGE XE errors.

Never ran the JAR file, as official guides said nothing about it. My Morrowind setup is basically done except for a few tweaks in the code patch.

So is that just to fix bugs and being able to make their own changes, or is it mostly for graphical improvements? What annoys me about modding, in general, is that the people will put in tons and tons of work into a project and provide tons and tons of information. But not bother to take 5 minutes to write down what it is, what it has achieved, what it is trying to achieve etc. I can try to infer as best as I can, but just a simple clear-cut answer would really help. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gXKa4H9_F-0 Midig fucked around with this message at 04:32 on Jul 3, 2018 |

Penpal posted:Is there any lore or anything about life on the moons, evil or otherwise? Or even a mod. I want to sword and sorcery in a weird lunar environment and look up to see Tamriel on fire or something. Probably beaten, but yes. The Aethernautics mod is based on some of the "deep lore' by kirkbride, and Kirkbride's c0da is set on the moon after Tamriel gets rekt.

But you asked about mods and actually they are planning on fully supporting community mods and there are already a bunch, mostly graphics mods, but somebody already made the groundwork for modded factions so anything is possible.

But very few people try to catch a train/bus for its own sake, they take trains to reach a destination or to meet some other end. What are they trying to achieve by making the game work on the unity engine?

Although most importantly is that it will actually run at all on newer operating systems. I can think of a few games that you just can't run without a VM or something, usually one's that ran on Windows 95/98/ME natively.

What are they trying to achieve by making the game work on the unity engine? Alright, so, what happened was that there was a guy who used to be known as Interkarma who wrote some tools to look at Daggerfall stuff and perhaps try some modding. And one day he decided to make a resource viewer using Unity as the engine so that he could focus on the resource handling part and not have to write his own renderer and stuff. This progressed so well that when the guy who made DaggerXL disappeared forever, he thought he could turn his resource viewer into a full-fledged game engine recreation so that we'd have that since we won't have DaggerXL. What is being achieved this way? Well the same thing as what DaggerXL was supposed to achieve. Modernized interface, runs natively on modern OS, less bugs, higher resolution, same game otherwise.

Universally one of the worst aspects of modding is the only way to get answers to any basic questions is to sit through a 10 minute video (at least 90 second of which is xxxtreme epic intro with a rad metal song) from the most shrill youtuber possible. Don't forget to smash that like, follow and subscribe!

Some mod descriptions feel like trying to understand the Tabletop game Nobilis. In fact, modders, in general, remind me of people who spend too much time on DeviantArt. Makes something that doesn't make sense to people, cant explain what it is, bad at taking criticism, way too much lewd stuff. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V3RNnL715tM&t=302s Midig fucked around with this message at 09:49 on Jul 4, 2018 |
