Update from Bethesda, Creation Kit and 1.2 patch issues Options

[Thomas Kaira]

What Bethesda currently has planned for Skyrim

A few highlights:

The Creation Kit is slated to hit in January. This will include a tandem release of a Creation Kit Wiki and several tutorial vids to help you get started if you are new or get acquainted with new features if you are a returning modder.

Bethesda is working with Valve to make it possible to distribute mods through Valve's own mod distribution service: Steam Workshop. A notable feature: you can browse for Skyrim mods anywhere you have an internet connection and flag mods you like, and then when you return to your game PC, thyey will be downloaded and installed automatically.

And for those of you who can see the obvious holes in such a system (particularly pertaining to Bethesda mods), you can still use modding sites like Skyrim Nexus to get them.

A hotfix for the backwards flying dragons and broken resistances is slated to hit next week. This time, they anticipate PC will get it first. :tongue:

Finally, we can anticipate most future small updates to be obtained by the PC users first, and more often (title updates will likely still see tandem releases to keep things fair) because update certification is not required for us.

I just hope they keep coming with more patches, that actually work though, faster. The only issue I had previously was a few random crashes to desktop and on rare occasions texture bugs, but hardly anything other that that. After the 1.2 patch that hasn't change - except that it happens more often now.
