How does this work?

Post by Sabian »

Right, so I dont get how so many people can contribute to something. first off, how is it that all of these peoples works are added to one file? example:

I make a book for TR. How is it added to the TR_Data.esm?

Sabian: with 'merger' Jedak means a person who is in charge to merge all the completed, reviewed and fully approved claims into a single file, of course. This person needs to be a TR Modder or a Reviewer to do that, as regular members usually doesn't have access to the TR wip files. Being a modder, that person knows how to do the trick.

Who wants to modding for Tamriel Rebuilt needs to be a TR Modder before claiming something.

You know what's also popular? Enormous flying cities and ridable dragons. Maybe TR should invest in navigable ships and underwater cities.

there are different merger peoples for different parts. the head of 0oT merges 0oT for example. the maps are usualy dont by someone in the core who wants to do it (or is forced to :P). sometimes other people do it... its a case-by-case basis.

Why don't you try joining TR then and get some skills here? TR is like one of the best places to learn how to mod(some other skills are also very easy to be improved here, working in a team skill for example :P)
PoHa: how can we best this trio of trouble? who will save us from this menace of sub-par models? what will we do?
PoHa: I know! we'll shoot an Aro at them
Aro: you have only one Aro missile!
PoHa: yes, but its heat seeking and quite possibly indestructible

Aro: I've posted a showcase and was told that i wouldnt get a response till after X-mas.

Lady N: awesome, I have TESame, and i had no idea what that merge did. The CS merge functions makes the file dependant on other esp's i believe. D:
