Screenshots from Jerric's World Options

[Grits]

I have some screenshots. I’m afraid I’ll get too unruly for the characters thread, so here we are.

This is my first attempt at everyone. Tips, hints and comments are very welcome! I don’t have any mods yet.


The original Jerric on the PS3. I know, it’s a photo of my TV.

Jerric casting frost in a cave.

Darnand in the Anvil guild hall.

Abiene and Carahil. I think I need to make Abiene’s face thinner, with a longer nose.

Abiene and Anvil mages.

Lildereth cuts a deal with Morvayn.

Thanks, mALX! Valdi has a lot of spirit.

SubRosa, the Roadstroker’s outfit was one of Lil’s requirements, lol. I couldn’t find a UNP conversion so there’s a bad seam at the neck, but now she has a necklace that at least distracts the eye. I’m resisting the snowball effect that happens when you decide to change one small thing. My first solution was a craftable leather collar that hit exactly the right spot, but when she put it on I discovered that it was as advertised a dog collar. D’oh!! Late night downloading is a mistake. I just love Natural Eyes. Jerric has squinty eyes, so he doesn’t show them off very well. Eyes were another Lil requirement.

I agree about the wrinkles. That’s why I jumped through hoops with the male Nord face. It’s not easy to hit a weathered age 40. I guess I never saw the freckles even after so many characters because if the first two sliders are “decrepit” and “ancient,” then I figured the last two must be “diseased” and “draugr.”

Thanks, Elisabeth! I had a very specific look in mind for Lildereth, and so far it’s definitely her. She looks somewhat angry and unapproachable in the game, lol. I made her the same height as Breton women, so she kind of glares up at everyone. (Head tracking mod, yay.)

KC, thanks! It’s been quite a journey for Lildereth. Waaay back in the early unpatched disaster era I brought Lil in as one of my first characters. She made it as far as Riverwood and literally quit right in front of my eyes. The height for Bosmer women was very messed up, and standing next to Alvor she looked like a towering, scrawny stick insect. She was taller than the Nord men! Plus she hated her clumpy “Nord hair,” and the vanilla Bosmer eyes… Well, it would be quicker to say that everything was wrong. Mods made the difference. I’m going to try the spectral animal summonings for her as soon as she gets to that level (around 2016, lol). She won’t survive in Skyrim without some backup, and she was not going to start summoning daedra. Oh, remember when I said I was sick as a dog after playing on the laptop for the first time? Unofficial patch solved the problem. As far as I can tell it was a mouse issue. All better now.

You can fix the item name very easily with the Creation Kit. It is just one field where you can type in anything you want. Like "Darnand's sexy bitch's collar", or whatever you feel is more appropriate. Or just go the other route, ditch the Roadstroker outfit, and kit her out with some hot bdsm gear

Edit: I tried the Sky version of the Roadstroker outfit. I see what you mean about the neck. That is not a seam, its a crack! I wound up deleting it. Not because of that though. It was the way there are twenty different versions of the outfit all with the same name, and no real explanation of what the difference is between them. I would have to do a lot of modding to put in the basic things like descriptions that it should have come with to begin with. I just don't have the patience to do that with something that is broken as well.

btw. I just uploaded an updated version of Skyrim Nature Summoning, that makes the potent and guardian animals more powerful, and changes the potent bear to have a snow bear skin.
