Monkey Man's Showcase

Monkey Man · Post by **Monkey Man** » Sat Apr 25, 2009 3:34 pm

This is my random idea thread for morrowind. Comment on anything you like, please. Also vote for you favorite idea.
1.A daedric quest where you must go around and assasinate temple leaders to remove the competition
2.A quest trying to figure out how Sotha Sil made his creations
3.A set of twin colored and material armor and weapons like the bipolar blade
4.A quest with something to do with the fork of horripilation and possibly a spoon of horripilation.
5.A set of pearl colored armor with more of a knightly appearance.
6.A set of bone weapons and armor
7.Adding additional spears, because that is the one item type that is lacking in the base game and expansions
8.A great house war quest
9.A set of hand to hand weapon strength boosters(brass knuckles and the likes)
10.A tomb quest that requires killing room after room of skeletons
Thank you for your time, Monkey Man =)

Ok I learned how to do interior modding from Yeti, so I will start on that today.

A large scale House War would be epic. I'd do it myself but my priorities are packed as it is, and it may require a level of scripting that I have not reached yet.

8 and 10 would most likely be impossible on the Morrowind Engine and I don't understand 3 or 5 (5 especially).

Why are you asking by the way? Are you going to make a mod out of the idea with the most votes, or are you just asking?

I may attempt to make a mod using the idea with the most votes, I just want to see what other people think of my ideas. I have changed 3 + 5 so they are more apparent and so that what I see in my head is hopefully what you see when you read this.One quick idea would be for #10 you could have constant spells put on hand equip items that increased hand to hand skill, or strength, because everyone wants some spiked gloves

Also, even if I don't have a very large support for the Great House Wars I may find a way to create the quest myself

Why is this in the showcase forum then?

Yeti · Post by **Yeti** » Sat Jul 25, 2009 3:29 am

Here are my thought on your ideas that I'm guessing are for your showcase. I'd first recommend doing something more simple. A basic "go here do this quest" for example or an interior of a manor or something. I will also state first that I find a lot of your ideas a bit strange... to say the least

1. Very basic idea for a one time quest. Doing it on a large scale would be a little repetitive.

2. I'd actually really like to see more questlines exsplore Sotha Sil; who is by far my favorite member of the Tribunal. I can't see how your idea would fit into the game though.

3. huh?

4. fork of horripilation? wasn't that that thing in the Sheogorath quest?

5.

6. These would be neat if done well

7. Sure, why not.

8. A large scale one? Probabily too complicated to pull off. Certainly too big to do just for a showcase.

9. I guess these could be neat.

10. Massive waves of skelletons + Morrowind's combat system = Repetion city

Anyway Monkey man, if your interested in joining TR I'd go for a more simpler showcase than any of these wild ideas. A simple interior or quest is enougth. Make sure to look at the tutorials to see what you can learn and also read other showcase threads to see how everything progresses here.

P.S If these ideas are for TR itself I can tell you now that they won't be used. (some more so than others

)

P.P.S don't double post. Espeicelly if all you are going to add is a smiley face.

Becuase I will change it to show whatever is either popular or whatever I like and can do when I have what I decide is a decent amount of data

You do understand what the showcase forum is for, right? You should make a small mod such as a quest, model or interior to demonstrate your skills.
If it's good enough, then someone can recommend you to be promoted onto the team. If not, we'll try and suggest how to fix or improve upon your submission.

Thrignar Fraxix · Post by **Thrignar Fraxix** » Sat Jul 25, 2009 5:17 pm

indeed, making something large would be kind of a waste, and you really should just make something small. 9 of your ideas are quests that would not be included in TR for one reason for another, and one of them is simply a request for more resources, which we have.

Do what you want, don't do too much though because the showcase is just a practice demonstrationy type thing.

Monkey Man · Post by **Monkey Man** » Sun Jul 26, 2009 2:35 am

I just learned that my computer makes using the Construction set for interiors is nearly impossible to do for me... I will try to find something that i can do to help

Yeti · Post by **Yeti** » Mon Jul 27, 2009 12:32 am

Why is it impossible? Maybe I can be of assistance 8)

Tyrion · Post by **Tyrion** » Mon Jul 27, 2009 2:16 am

Yeah, if you're talking morrowind CS it should run on just about any computer.

Monkey Man · Post by **Monkey Man** » Mon Jul 27, 2009 4:05 am

It isnt that it doesnt run its just that it doest work well with my touchpad =(

blackbird · Post by **blackbird** » Mon Jul 27, 2009 9:17 am

Cna you install a mouse and a keyboard on your computer?

Tyrion · Post by **Tyrion** » Mon Jul 27, 2009 12:42 pm

Just plug a mouse in.

Monkey Man · Post by **Monkey Man** » Tue Jul 28, 2009 2:22 am

Let my showcase rest for a week, I have someone who will help me with the construction set once i have a lot more free time, considering I am booked all day, every day this week.

Thrignar Fraxix · Post by **Thrignar Fraxix** » Tue Jul 28, 2009 2:25 am

just remember that all showcases must be solely the work of the modder posting them.

Monkey Man · Post by **Monkey Man** » Tue Jul 28, 2009 3:12 am

This will help me with my making of the interior, not having the person do it for me, just helping me get a hang of it.

Yeti · Post by **Yeti** » Wed Jul 29, 2009 2:18 am

Just because I don't like keeping secreats: the guy he's talking about is me

Don't worry TF; I'll make sure he does his own modding

OK on that note, can I get a suggestion for a small house type?

Thrignar Fraxix · Post by **Thrignar Fraxix** » Mon Aug 03, 2009 5:01 pm

just pick an exterior, then make an interior for it.

Monkey Man · Post by **Monkey Man** » Sun Aug 09, 2009 10:44 pm

Hey I finally made an interior woo hoo!
EDIT: I made the interior as the last place in the list of places, and i know how to use gridsnap.

ALL PRAISE GRIDSNAP!

Its been a week so: BUMP!

Katze · Post by **Katze** » Mon Aug 17, 2009 10:52 pm

Your mod is dependant on book rotate, please only have your showcase mods be dependant on Morrowind.esm, Tribunal.esm, Bloodmoon.esm, and preferably also the latest version of TR_Data.esm

Monkey Man · Post by **Monkey Man** » Tue Aug 18, 2009 2:39 pm

How do I remove the need for bookrotate, because I have nothing from that in the mod. Also I have downloaded the newest TR DATA file

Katze · Post by **Katze** » Tue Aug 18, 2009 5:31 pm

TESDTK can remove dependancies, I believe.

Monkey Man · Post by **Monkey Man** » Tue Aug 18, 2009 10:16 pm

where can i find mentioned program?

Monkey Man · Post by **Monkey Man** » Sat Aug 22, 2009 1:26 am

Just have done the changes I have been asked to do and the TESDTK is dowloadable directly off TR

Kiteflyer61 · Post by **Kiteflyer61** » Sat Aug 22, 2009 3:06 am

Your showcase is STILL dependant on book rotate.esm. You will have to remove the dependancy to get your showcase reviewed.

Monkey Man · Post by **Monkey Man** » Sat Aug 22, 2009 3:09 am

OK I gotta update my mod again then...
EDIT:Here it is I didn't locate my "clean" version of my mod right away

Kiteflyer61 · Post by **Kiteflyer61** » Sat Aug 22, 2009 4:43 am

OK, here is my review...

-Too small
-A little too bright on the light settings
-Snap to grid either not used or too low of a setting, room tiles overlap. Try using a STG setting of 32
-Chair floats
-Sack floats
-Not enough detail
-Barrels used have "floating" scripts
-Large crack at bottom of door
-Fishing pole stands straight up, not leaning against anything

If you want to be a modder for TR you'll have to spend more than 10 minutes making your showcase. I suggest you look at some of the other showcases to see what kind of work is expected for promotion. If you look at my showcase files you'll see that they are a LOT more detailed. This is the kind of work that is needed to be promoted. Take your time and build somthing that you are proud of and that will catch the reviewers eye.

I was told to make something small...
And I took the Light Settings STRAIGHT out of the House of Earthly Delights, being that it is in Suran and of the same style.
