Today is my first time to know about the Singer and heard her song,her voice is beautiful ,I'm just subscript immediately :D
The mod is working great I think I well always take this follower by side. but don't know why after the song end, skyrim's music wont play anymore even reload a old save. maybe is skyrim's bug or my mods conflict.I'm still trying to find out the solution.Any way Thank you for the great mod! :)
I have a question.may I have your permission to do a appearance change replacer ?
Thanks, nice to hear you're enjoying it. I will take a look. It's anyways overdue for an update... But let me know if it turned out to be a mod conflict.
Go ahead with your appearance changer. You got my permission.
I use the 0.4.3.1 version for test and background music well playing while singing ( naturally that is Fixed in Version 0.4.4.4 ) but skyrim's music well work normally when using an older Version,so I'm use the older Version for now.
Thanks for the permission I will do that right away. :D Sorry, i forgot to ask about when I finish the replacer is that ok if I port it on Nexus website ?
Yes there is. If you know your way around the creation kit a little bit, you can load the mod and go to Miscellaneous -> ColorForm -> MODHairColor01Joy and change the color. It is a bit of trial and error to get the color you want since it shows up differently in the color selection then in game. (Let me know if you need assistance with that. Otherwise I guess I could upload a patch file for a different hair color)
I went with blue because she had blue hair in a lot of other videos and the profile picture.
naw that should be enough information for me thank you :) trying to get back into modding myself (havent used the creation kit since oblivions launch) and you actually have made basically what i was planning on making here :) so guess i gotta work on my next idea (lol keep an eye out for a small dungeon pack (have 3 places in very early concept stage right now a cave that leads into a hidden ayleid ruin, a house with a darker secret beneath it, and a generic dwarven ruin that hopefully i can figure out how to tastefully attach to blackreach)) thanks for the tips again :)
Thanks, nice to hear you're enjoying it. I haven't stored the lyrics in the mod itself, but you can find the lyrics for Joys original songs "The Last Dragonborn" and "Black Wings" in the video descriptions of the songs on YouTube (A link to her YouTube is in the mod description). As for the covers the lyrics shouldn't deviate too much from the respective original versions and should be able to be found somewhere on the internet.
Thank you for the honest opinion. Very much appreciated. I know it feels strange and isn't really immersive. Including a lute could help a little bit with that, but since the songs themself were never intendet to be bard songs in skyrim, it's never going to be perfect. That she is singing at the spot you request her to inside an Inn is also a thing I have to change.
I guess this mod is better suited for Joy's Twitch community than the common Skyrim player.
As a general observation, the mod "Become a Bard" is loaded with songs accompanied by instruments not in the game. It doesn't matter. If you're bothered by that sort of thing, you stick to the vanilla songs, or don't use the mod at all. This will suit some people perfectly, others not at all, and a whole bunch will be in the middle - same as most mods.
I can't promise too much polishing, as this is not included in my current skill set. (Currently I'm happy if i get things to work xD) Right now I'm working on a new following system for her, with an option to let her follow you around without engaging in combat, so she can sing during battles. Also I'm trying to figure out how to get her to sing randomly without request.
The comment blew up indeed, but I actually didn't even notice the comment until after I started with the mod.
At some point i want to add custom spells for her. Creating a unique viocetype and making every dialogue custom would also be great. And letting her play the lute or something while singing. Unfortunately I can't say when I will have the time to do all of that. May take a while.

I brought up the mod to joy after first finding out it exists, and she said that she would be willing to voice act for the mod!
shes mainly active on discord :)
that has been in the back of my mind for a while. I will talk to her about it.
You can make a friendly suggestion to her on her socials and if she decides to sing it I will for sure add it.

I'm thankful I wanted more bardic songs.
I have a question.
I would like to translate the lyrics, where are they stored?
