    I wish there was a mod that adds like a epic One Handed Hammer that looks like it should be two handed

    I just released a mod that allows you to cover up certain parts of the skin with chainmail or another texture using Body tattoos and RaceMenu.

    Check it out!

    Hey Gopher, I'd love if you did a video tutorial for us dumber/lazier mod users on how to easily set up the Lootification mod:
    http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/32339
     
    It's supposed to sort out all your installed weapon and armor mods to be properly distributed in the leveled lists, WITH enchantments added like they are to vanilla weapons, but it seems a little complicated to set up, and you always explain things in a way that makes it easy.   It involves sort of registering all your weapon and armor mods with it.

    I would especially like to know if it would work with SkyRe and the Reproccer, and how.  I was going to install it, but then it wanted to overwrite Reproccer files, so I cancelled and played it safe lol.

    Thanks for any help man, and it would be awesome if you made a video about this.

      Because you know his sword only glows around goblins. The NetImmerse Override could possibly be used to make a sword only glow when around certain actors theoretically. Or make the animation pulse faster when those actors get closer.

      In Elder Scrolls-verse, I guess the equivalent would either be Rieklings or Orcs.

      I keep thinking about Falmer myself. Imagine going into an unfamiliar cave and suddenly, blue glow. You've been warned. You'll either be fighting (or fleeing from) Falmer in this cave.

    A while back Wyldtats and I were trying to figure out a way to get glowing tattoos for his Noiral, but I wasn't smart enough. I was also toying around with a way to combine my mods Glowtastic and Animated Weapon Enchants into an Animated Armor Enchants mod, but again, wasn't smart enough to make it work. Maybe this can bridge the gap to genius.

    One thing I love about modding is how it can inspire other folks to do something better or slightly differently, and they start making their own mods.

    Not sure if you can change the complete texture with this method, but I think different textures for items is a feature planned for AV (Automatic Variants), SkyProc opens a lot of possibilities too.

    Speaking of SkyProc, has anyone thought of creating a SkyProc mod to unify all the mods that add warpaints, eyes and hair to the character-creation? That would be kind of cool to reduce load order, ensure compatibility with stuff like custom races and prevent having the same new things multiple times.

      Even if complete textures aren't possible, it's clearly able to overlay multiple shapes, patterns and gradients of varying opacity. So it should be possible to give armor a damaged, battered or worn look. Or to give characters wounds, boils and bruises without changing the underlying skin. Great possibilities by any standards.

      Dynamic scars. That would be awesome.

      Dynamic scars would be very interesting. If you do not successfully block a attack maybe a small chance a scar will appear. Then if you want to get rid of scars. Face Merchant in Ratway, or Healing Ritual Quest. It would really expand the possibilities for Immersion gaming.

    Glowmaps are saved in the .nif, it's a model thing, not a texture thing. So you couldn't change color, but you could have it where the normal texture is all black thus disabling glowmaps, then the script changes to a glowmapped texture thus illuminating the item. Just my $0.02

    hum it opens up new possibilities but they are all bunched up in a submenu ? not very practical
    I think I still prefer ECE http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/12951/?
    seems more advanced to me for now

    opinions ?

      Those are different kind of mods so you can't really compare them. One is Race Menu interface overhaul and the ECE gives you a whole lot of new character creation options. Not to mention that they work together almost flawlessly too.

      If you want to compare ECE to something then compare it to RaceMenuPlugin and CharGen Extension as those give you a new options during character creation too, but both of them are optional and not needed at all.

    There's another mod that allows something similar to netimmerse override. Model manager http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/37328/? allows you to use an MCM to select between texture mods for weapons and armor.

      Model manager is for out of game mod installation, NIO is for in game dynamic alteration of the textures on models.
