@ King Coin - Thank you KC !!! I loved the humming - still love it whenever she does that !!! I agree, it is very fitting to her personality. Thank you so much KC !!!!

@ Grits - Thank you so much Grits !!! The humming was one of those sample files they tell you to delete (like the pictures that come in wallets) - I just couldn't dump it, fell in love with it the second I heard it !!
The sound came for waiting. Every time you ask a follower to wait they either complain or act too obsequies, (I really prefer the complaining) - that is how all the player sound files were too. All these sound files were in a different language (Asian) - so I was just dumping them after a quick listen. When I came to the waiting and heard this I went nuts over it !! As it turned out, I kept half the files that came in the mod.
When Maxical sings or exhales loudly (and some combat sounds that weren't in the vid) - those are the little Asian girl's voice, but you really can't tell it doesn't belong with Anna Torment's voice - it just fits right in with it !! I would give anything to know who the little girl is that did that singing, just to tell her how much I loved that singing. I laugh every time I hear it, lol.
Thank you so much Grits !!

@ Acadian - I don't know when I have been more excited than getting to hear my player speak !! Thank you so much for telling me about Buffy's talking and explaining that it was a mod - I would have never known such a thing existed !!! You ROCK !!! And yes, FINALLY got it working !!! Lol. I absolutely love that singing too, thank you so much Acadian !!!
***************************
And now ... TADA !!! My very first mod ever, "Alix the Mouse!"
As everyone knows, I am as dumb as a brick when it comes to computers, lol. So this was HUGE for me.
Alix is made from the great NIF files of "Wasabi the mouse," and some scripts from the mod "Fufu Rabbit."
Alix is supposed to follow Maxical, he has all his own sound files (hand selected from months of scratching through thousands of shrieking mouse sounds), he is supposed to love sweetrolls and follow Maxical if she has any on her - and if any sweetrolls are just laying around he is supposed to seek them out. When asked to wait he is supposed to make a cursing sounding squeal, and when the player returns and tells him to follow again he is supposed to make a, "It's about time!" sounding squeal.
Alix is not geared to pick a fight, but is supposed to defend himself and Maxical. If provoked, he can take down a Deadroth if necessary, his combat package is pretty hefty.
Well, so far all he is doing is following Maxical, and I can't tell if it is because she happens to have sweetrolls on her (because Vilja also demands them).
The dead rat you see was one I tossed into Skingrad to see if Alix would kill it - he did !! So far so good...and that is where the good news ends, lol.
I had to cut the scene where he stood by and watched as a highwayman nearly cudgeled Maxical to death ... I guess I need to up his agression level some, lol.
I didn't get to hear him make any of his special sounds yet either - which he should have been doing. His summon ring is also supposed to make a "conjure" sound - it didn't, nor did it summon Alix. I had to go find Alix, thank goodness I stuck him right outside Maxical's house in Skingrad, lol.
Somehow in placing Alix in Skingrad I may have ... inadvertantly pushed around something I shouldn't, because now when I close this mod out on the construction set it is giving "Furniture reference warnings" - which it wasn't doing till I stuck Alix down in Skingrad. So I did it - just not sure what I did.
Then there is Maxical's tail. For some odd reason Maxical's tail broke at the end of this vid - could it have to do with the furniture reference? I don't know, but I need to figure out what these issues are or start making Alix from scratch and delete this .esp file. - At least I have all the steps down pat now, lol.
So anyway, still some tweaks need to be made. KC made the great suggestion (which I plan to do) to remove the sweetroll package and get the "follow package" working properly before trying to add the sweetrolls - I think he is right that the conflict may be over having two follow packages.
Anyway, Alix is here and following (if nothing else, lol) - and it is the first real mod I ever made !!!
PS: The end of the vid shows both Alix and Wasabi together (proving I didn't just rename Wasabi). Note Alix's size compared to Wasabi's !!!
Ready? Heeeeeeere's ALIX the Mouse !!!!
