Estel: Alright, already! Yeah, VanQa is cool and it is her birthday, but hey look at me - am I hot or what?!!!

She IS very hot, VanQa.

Very cool video! I particularly liked how well you kept the fighting going and filming at various angles simultaneously.

And yes, Happy Birthday!!!

Estel: thank you thank you thank you thank you gf1 ! *smothers with hugs and kisses*

[greatfool1]

Estel: thank you thank you thank you thank you gf1 ! *smothers with hugs and kisses*

gf1: OMG, Estel! You are most welcome!
Estel: I feel a little guilty, gf1. This incredible outfit was actually something I was going to give VanQa for her birthday, but I like it so much, I decided to keep it!

gf1: I see... Yeah, that is a magnificently regal outfit. It really looks great on you! So what did you give VanQa instead?
Estel: That picture of me in the outfit, silly!
gf1: But the way you are posing there kind of seems like you are saying: "VanQa, don't even try to get this outfit from me!"
Estel: Good! That should work then, right?
gf1: Whatever you say, Estel.

Great shots, VanQa!

Btw, in that video, I presume she is your main playing character (given the stat bars). How did you get her so involved in fighting and also angling the camera differently at times? Was that editing or ??? It looked very cool regardless.

[VanQa]

gf1: OMG, Estel! You are most welcome!

VanQa: hmpf Estel... *louder* ESTEL !!! Behave. Stop giving gf1 those looks...
Estel: But but but... he's so nice to me !!! Stop giving me that look too! You're not getting this suit...
VanQa: No fair. You get all the nice clothes...

The character is Estel and she is my main yes. Her hair looks different a bit cuz of wig and the head gear hehe. I really didnt do anything fancy other then hitting the button sometimes so fraps would start recording things. Here and there i turned the menu off or used the TFC mode to float around No other editing at all except for the editing of putting all the bits of footage together into one movie.

Well you are a lot better at video shooting than me. I only have my companions doing stuff because they will fight automatically and more or less sanely. Every time I tried a fight with my pc and then TFC, the pc would get walloped and twisted around, and be swinging away at a wall or whatever. Companions make it a lot easier in this regard.

Other than a dance video with the Adoring Fan I posted a while ago, I haven't filmed anything worth putting on Youtube. I have gotten quite a few views with the AF video though - must have something to do with the Key Words: Sexy, funny, Oblivion, Adoring Fan... heheh... Marketing 101. Here it is ... again:

[VanQa]

Hehehe love that movie!

[Andaius]

Kalia I love the new outfits Who does the Archmage have to kill in Cyrodil to get these Exnemized? Wonderful work!

[VanQa]

oooo now that is a really good idea Andaius. I'd love to see those exnemized too !

[kalia]

Well, quite a few pieces use Babarized version of exnem bits - and almost everything else is BAB stuff, and I believe those are already exnemized, yes? The meshes I've done are fairly simple (cause I'm a total beginner at Blender) modifications of BAB meshes, so I'd think whoever exnemized the BAB stuff wouldn't have much problem exnemizing those. 'Course Floydian'd have to give his ok too. Oh, and we might have to actually release the mod first.

Tho I could suggest y'all switch back to BAB.

[greatfool1]

@ VanQa - Thanks! Companions dancing are even easier to control than their fighting - that is for sure. Though editing took me forever - I think I spent at least 12 hours on that video. It was a lot harder and way more time-consuming than I thought it would be - and of course I kept finding little ways to make it a little bit better... repeat endlessly ... I still see way too many flaws in it. Heheh.

Tho I could suggest y'all switch back to BAB.

Yours and Floydian's work are making this more and more tempting, Kalia. I asked at one point on CI if anyone knew whether there would be any issues with all my companions (mostly from Divine Avenger) if I went back to BABs, but no one ever responded, so I didn't do it.

Regardless, the collages and clothing look incredible!!

Any ETA for the release yet?

[VanQa]

mmm as beautifull as i think the clothes are, I simply like the Exnem body better then the Bab one soooo ! this girl will hope to see all the lubly clothing exnemized one day

Kalia, unfortunately Zhu, who was working on the BaB dress convertion hit a bad case of RL and has put the converstion on pause for the forseeable future. So unless some new person is going to pick up it may be very long indeed before we see anything BaB converted over. You've make wonderful outfits that so tempt me to try them to see how well they work using them with Exnem just to have the outfits! However you'd earn my and lots of folks down in the EC's community's eternal gratitute and be an instant Hero to all of us if you did mangae to take this on. (hint hint)

You and Floydian do wonderful work, I love to see the new stuff you cook up. You, and Sinblood are the two author's I'd love to see make stuff for Exnem aswell. Keep up the good work!

[Rumpleteasza]

Ryu - I'm really starting to want a Glenn companion so I can do my own shots! I love these ones you're posting <3

Kalia, those outfits are gorgeous - every time I think you're finished, you churn out another one, and they are all so beautiful! I don't recognise the pose you're using a lot now - where's that from?

Glad you like them. Shamanih has been pretty fun to adventure around with. On those few times that I've actually sat down and played the game without working on modding at least. Terminerai's heightmap/landmass is being so relentless right now. I've actually had to redo the whole thing because the beach was too receded.

Anyway, I might be persuaded for certain other things in private discussion.
