@Rogue Sum, that movie is awesome - it makes me envy the people who have a descent graphic card!

@cyborgakadjmoose, did you know how cool your character is? I would hardly say she is a Oblivion character, she's just like something we would see in WOW!

@Highpressure: Trevaia is very welcome... and lovely shots!

Thanks Leomorg! Yeah...I based her off the Draenei from WOW. I think they are a very interesting race, and I had to try to make one for Oblivion (which is ten times better than WOW...).

Ah well so much for movies, windows movie maker won't save my project, gives some crap message about checking the save location, bugged pile of shite!

[Yorkmaster]

Well Floydian just keep to shooting shots and posting them seperately, cause I doubt we'd be able to dl movies that have the same quality that your shots have. they'd be way to big (I guess) or watch them on youtube, you'd have to make a compromise.
I'll just save a lot of your screenshots and watch them as a slideshow with minimum time between the pictures (that might be a good idea ) the same way you can make a cartoon by flipping pages very quickly.

@ kalia - That first pic looks like a rather relaxing spot

@ Jazz JR - Definitely a talented kitty.

@ Radicus - She looks rather uncertain about holding that sword. Probably to her advantage.
naughty, naughty, naughty!
Aaww! I need that mod. Gonna go look for it now.... BTW, any idea when Tamriel might be getting pigs, chickens, cows,...

@ Sinharvest - cool armor. One wonders why there isn't more trade between the provinces. The empire doesn't really seem interested in keeping up it's strength either militarily, or economically. Maybe it is time for the Daedra to take over.
Oblivious citizenry. One of the top 10 reasons for the game's title.

@ VanOa -

@ Chiglet - Wow! That new male Dark Seducer armor by Kikaimegami looks ... wait a minute. These are my pics. Silly me. On to the next comment....

@ Soul Slayer - I see female armor now comes with even more distractions for the male NPCs (nudity)

@ Floydian1 - LOL psychotic chili.

@ Rogue Sun - Beautiful

And now to start on the new thread....

[Lady Blue]

@ Highpressure- You have one gorgeous character, i love her skin tone =D

@ CapsAdmin- She's a true piece of art, very realistic looking girl

@ Chimera- Goldie is marvelous looking, one of the best wood elves ive seen so far, though Trinity is still my favorite of the bunch

@ Yorkmaster- I really like your character, she looks more like a real women then most other female characters

@ Hector- Nice story hehehe, but their chests are HUGE

@ Shadow- AMAZING shots, soooo shiny

@ Radicus- Bo has always looked unique to me, she's among my favorite characters here

Post #24: She looks amazing. For her age I would have to say late teens to early twenties, the large eyes make her look younger than she is (Something I noticed with anime characters)

And the end of another post....here is the point where I talk on and on about nothing useful or important but merely do it fill space. Which in fact is kinda ironic since the space wouldn't be their unless I type something in it I am shutting up now...

[Petrovich]

@ Petrovich - Those are some damn funny shots. Almost feel a bit sorry for poor AF.

There's no need to worry for AF. Doctors in Cyrodiil are good.

[Ryu Doppler]

@Treetop Smoker: Ugh I am so bad with names...Selena right? She certainly looks relieved to be played with again! And it looks like you joined the whole Badass gun craze as well! I remember back when the craze of the day was decapitations...good times.
And also welcome back!

@highpressure: Damn! Now thats what I call firepower! Wouldn't want to mess with her on a bad day!

@Yorkmaster: Your tweaked nord certainly will impress a lot of ladies, thats a certainty! Well done!

@Chimera: Very impressive collection of fine ladies. Suki and Goldie and Trinity all look lovely.

@Floydian1: Quite a collection of Shineys you got there. Reminds me of how rich one can easily get in Oblivion. Sia seems to be having a good time too! Which also reminds me never to get on her badside either!

@greatfool1: Heh, the Adoring Fan get to have all of the fun in that movie! Well done!

@Soul_Slayer: Nice pictures of your girls as always. This picture got my attention in particular. The glowing eye and all. Keep it up!

@Ginnyfizz: An Altmer Orc? Well that certainly is a new one. Kudos to Chairon de Celeste.

@Hector the Hooded: Hector seems to have quite a nice little niche for himself. Course, being Lorkhan I would expect nothing less from the Trickster. Hope he can get that whole Dagon mess under control though. But then I start to wonder...what will Hector do after Dagon???

@Rogue Sun: Very nice movie, even if it was only 2 minutes long. The only bad thing would have to be the Fraps logo, but thats really about it. Great job!

@CapsAdmin: Wow...just WOW. That is great work! Very great work!

@cyborgakadjmoose: I don't think Chandrakanta is boring at all. She definitely one of the most unique characters here!

@Shadow: I know what you mean by juggling games and such. I must have replayed several games in the past few days. Bioshock and Crusader Kings got me currently hooked, as well as...Tecmo Super Bowl 2006 update fan-hack. Nice screens by the way! Good Job!

@Radicus: Well, Bo seems to be having quite a nice little day. Looks real serene.

@Lady Blue: Ah, Erika certainly is looking real lovely today. Is this a past present picture? You thinking about doing a full story for Erika? She certainly seems to know a few people from her past so I'm just wondering. Unless those are random people of course. Your other pictures are great as well. She seems to like her share of tight fitting outfits too. And in this picture she seems to be quite relaxed. Daydreaming perhaps?

Post #40: Well that sure looks warm, should be useful the next time some cat leads you off into a frozen mountain range

Suggestions/answers to questions/questions: From what mesh was your new cloth wrap made from?

Shivering Isles mesh. Originally part of the Patchwork Shirt (Path = DLCShiveringIsles - Meshes.bsa, meshes\clothes\lowerclass\sedementia\m). One big problem is that cloth wrap is actually part of the underling shirt. By great fortune though, the Vertices between the shirt and the Cloth aren't connected at all, so it was just a simple matter of deleting everything that wasn't part of the cloth. And with the right adjustments, it fits quite well with the cape.

I can't claim the originality of that idea though. Navarris from the Bethesda board was working on his Ranger's Shroud, which took the similar idea I had with my own armor, and attempted to make some Ranger's armor based on the popular Hashshashin armor, and a sort of Fits-All-Cape using the Normal Capes and Cloaks mod which looked something similar to my character's own former tweaked cape. You can view his first attempt here.

However, in his latest attempts, he went about using the Patchwork Shirt chest as a base, and building off of that. Producing this as a result, although it suffers from gaps in between the mesh bits because I guess they weren't rigged correctly. Seeing this a light went off in my head on how to revamp my own character's gear. So I separated the cloth, scaled it, and fitted it accordingly until...bam! Sweet Spot!

I still need to rig it right though. The neck portion doesn't really move realistically at all, since it was never rigged to do so to begin with. I might also have to scale the texture down a bit.

@ Yorkmaster - Is that how they keep the dust of the streets off their clothes?
I think they will be impressed.
Makes for a really neat effect

@ Floydian1 - Very interesting. It hhas a puzzle-like look to it.

@ Ginnyfizz - Her body is a trellis for a lovely plant

@ Hector - Classy and sexy all rolled into one package. Jump on this one while you can Lady Blue.
Excellent story and pics

@ Rogue Sun - Wow, wow, and wow again. I got chills down my spine. You definitely have the right touch with the movie type videos.

@ CapsAdmin - I would guess she's about 17

@ Chimera - Excellent work That Dremora seemed to be perfectly content to stand and watch. Until, that is, someone dumped a bag of ants down his greaves. (I think I fell off my chair laughing at that point)
Very pretty characters

@ cyborg - Very cool character

ADDING SMOKE TO ANY PICTURE USING PHOTOSHOP:

The more detailed the instructions, the better. For some of us at least. Now if only my photoshop would actually open....

<snippety>

These completely off-topic links are especially for you, kalia. Enjoy

Something I should mention for anyone wanting to try a video with companions (I will put this in the SS Guides):
A few tricks that would have saved me some time - all the girls and AF are companions (from Divine Avenger). My pc is not in it because he is the badass dude and he didn't fit in to the theme. So the trick is to start the animations in the general area you want them to dance (or doing whatever), and then have your pc out of sight just below the floor in the middle of them (using TCL, of course). This will have them less oriented in one direction or another, especially in terms of their gazing. Just be careful when you TCL and move your pc because if you go too far below the floor or elsewhere, all the companions will try to follow him and all their animations will be reset to none.
Also, there are some new emote animations that can be added to your other animation to make them look surprised, etc. (Link is in thread noted in prior post.)
Edit: Also, my lighting sucked. It seemed fine at the time, but when the video was compressed, it looked pretty bad. So make sure you have lots of light. Also my editing sucked, but oh well... that is a whole other matter.

Thanks for the tips gf! These would probably also work when taking stills as well.

Useless Fact of the day: When under extreme stress, such as when held in captivity, some octopuses will eat their own arms, which grow back.

Useless perhaps, but it would be nice to have that ability. The growing limbs back, not the eating one's own limbs. (btw, are you on myspace?)

Ehr... nice screens, as always... just make sure to pass by CI forums and say hello there too!

I'd visit more often, but find CI rather confusing to navigate.

No my course work probably sucks the creativity out of me: I'm a Political Science major, though I am a theatre minor (don't ask...). Thanks for the tip about the program, I'll have to look into it.

Sounds like a diplomat in the making. Or one of the world's grestest producer/directors if that trailer is any indication.

,snip> still can't wait to see a feature film of Oblivion

I am in complete agreement. Be great to see something Oblivion on the big screen, and probably totally doable with today's technology and as a trilogy. Just need a good enough screenwriter, a studio willing to take a small chance, and the blessing of Bethesda to get that ball rolling.

Well I am sure some of these are useful to someone (after all, I believe that no information is useless) So it is more a general name than truly useless facts (I do have some of those )

Oh and yes I do have a myspace account (created due to the whole stolen screenshots issue) however I never use it.

Chapter 9: Secret alliance with the Dragon.

"There, right over that hill is the warp bad!" Hector said, cooler than the snow upon he stood. "Well, it better be!" Caria yelled, "My feet are killing me me!". "I carried you half of the way. Uphill." Hector said. "Well, your built for manual labor Iggy!" Ithen squealed. "Shut up, Ithen." Replied Dho.

"Stop your bickering!" Hector said with his booming and commanding voice.

"Ah! Here we are! Everyone leap!" Ellea said. "Ithen, Dho, Ellea - show Caria to her room. And tell her to mind the guards, they're under my command but the have recently become quite.....testy." Hector told the three. "Ughh...." Whined Caria, "Not more hocus pocus mystery!" "Ah, but mystery is all around you my dear. Espically here, be sure to get Ellea to show you the waterfall...you'll enjoy that." Hector said, winking at Ellea."

"Ahh.....sweet padded throne, how I have missed you..." Hector thought to himself.

No sooner had that lovely thought finished than had a unique figure appeared in front of him

"My...my lord Lorkhan" Said the beautiful, Golden and Blonde figure kneeling to the ground. "Rise, Razihel." Hector said, and with that she stood on her feet.

"Lord, I have bad news - Mehrunes Dagon plan is currently in execution, his forces will soon assault this Stronghold, you've already lost two others." Razihel said, without even taking a moment to catch her breath. "Damn! Damn it all!" Hector yelled, shaking the large castle itself. "Tell me, Razihel, where is Gisele? She should have arrived days ago." Hector asked her, "My lord...went Hinsman Keep fell....Gisele was captured. But Gisele keep did not fall to Mehrunes Dagon!" Rhaziel exclaimed. "WHAT? How does my Captain get captured? Who? Dagon will pay with his blood for this!" Hector yelled. "My lord... it was not the work of Dagon. This was the work of Sheogorath." Rhaziel said, not looking Hector in the eye. "Oh? Ohohoho! Excellent!" Hector's grimace now turning into a smile.

Rhaziel's confusion grew by the moment.

"ITHEN!" Hector yelled. "Yes my lord?" Ithen said, teleporting right infront of Hector. "Here are my orders - I have to leave with Rhaziel....we have a rescue mission. Your duty is as followed - protect Caria, I sense we will have unwanted guests." Hector told her. "It will be done my lord" Ithen said, giving Hector a squeeze and wink before she left.

"RHAZIEL. We march to Brellach, to save your sister and my captin." Hector said, in a oh-so official tone. "Yes my lord!" Rhaziel said.

Soon, the guests and guest of honor would arrived. Too bad they won't be staying.

You know i was thinking about doing a story for awhile and i might, though that kind of stuff is hard work i think. Ill take a few shots and see where it leads to =D
About the daydreaming thing, if you can daydream in the imperial city prison, then sure

@Karandras- Yeah, in a way its a repost, though its an alternate outfit one that i never posted before
