@Tirloque When will Malicia defeat Uranach? ❤️

 

? VS ?

It's Urunach. Uranach would sound a bit too much like Urag Gro-Shub, which would mean Malicia would get instantly defeated the moment she sees the name. ?

Yeah, but Uranach is fusion of Urag the ruler of the library, bane of Malicia and Urunach the crazy forsworn.

 

Only the fusion of Malicia and Caramel can with stand such unholy thing ?

Okays, here's another silly question, cos I obsess over stupid small details instead of actually working on my story \o/

 

I like Unslaad Skin. I think it's a pretty good balance between looking pretty and realistic, whereas something like Fair Skin looks pretty but is a little too perfect. I don't mind so much for random screenshotting but for story purposes I'd rather have more realistic skin, but also not something like Mature Skin which I feel ages characters a lot.

 

However! I've always been bothered by the hands. They look a little weird and wrinkly while the rest does not. For example: Fair Skin Hands / Unslaad Hands.

 

So I'm wondering how difficult it would be to take the textures from Fair Skin and get them to match the rest of Unslaad for those cleaner/smoother looking nails and fingers and such. My best (uneducated) guess would be that some GIMP/Photoshop magic on the .dds files would be involved, but I don't actually know. Obviously if I just paste files over the colours don't match.

So in principle it's not that difficult.

What you could try out first is just mixing different specular and normal maps with different diffuse maps.

For example I use the mature skin diffuse map, but the fair skin normal - and specular maps. As long as you take a set from the same texture set it won't be a problem.

For mixing textures like diffuse maps inbetween sets, like fair skin hands and mature body (both diffuse) you get problems at the connections and need to create a transition yourself. 

For necks / heads those already exist (check texblend), but for hands you probably need to make them yourself. 

Also different diffuse maps have different colors which is another thing to consider so you need to adjust the color. Fair skin is much whiter then mature skin for example, so you need to adjust that as well.

I'd suggest starting with chaning the normal/specular map first and see if that's already enough for you.

And that includes regular commercial content if ever an illustrator passed by there.

 

I'll reproduce here your status update :

Looking for any artists who can draw a high quality webcomic or whatnot for a joint venture. I can write the stories and provide the world and lore and you can draw or animate it (if you wish), letting us both rake in the jack, as i know my stories would sell if marketed correctly and especially if there were some solid, quality illustrations behind them. Let me know if interested via discord at Mad Waves#5486 and feel free to also hmu if you wish to commission a story, sext, chat, rp or something like that.

This may be rather long winded, but I want whoever answers this to have the context. I am a professional writer in real life. 35 books on Amazon in the scifi or fantasy genres. Three hundred thousand sales, great ratings on Amazon and Goodreads, well over a half million earned in seven years. I have recently released a Scifi-erotic novella under the pen name of Stephanie Strange, with a new one in the works. Added to that I have a three book series with a traditional publisher to start releasing next year. And I play a lot of Skyrim SE and Fallout 4, heavily modded. Both games have Interesting NPCs, which I won't play without. For Fallout I use the AAF mods and Magno Cum Gadio, which covers all the bases of what I need. For Skyrim I use Sexlab, Sexlab Romance, Defeat, Solutions, Radiant Prostitution, Jail Rape and Fertility Mode, which covers about all I want.  I have played in the past with Amorous Adventures, but didn't add it to this current game. I wish I had, since it adds so much content.

While playing Skyrim last year I wondered what a game would look like in which the Sole Survivor had to fight Alduin with a set of X-01 power armor. I was fascinated by the idea, and started a story on An Archive of Our Own about Nora, the Second Dragonborn (after the first got his ass fried by a dragon through his own stupidity).  After she had tamed the Institute, Brotherhood and Railroad, and was well on the way to building the Commonwealth into a mighty military and industrial power, Kynerith grabs her and pulls her to Skyrim in her power armor. Only problem is she has limited energy and ammunition, and she must learn how to fight the way the Nords do. Already an expert at stealth, lockpicking and the silent kill, she embarks on a path of learning how to fight with bow, sword and magic.

The stories have a lot of violence and quite a bit of explicit sex, including rape. In my games I always play my female character as a prostitute at some point, since spells and equipment are expensive. It didn't make sense to have Nora, as Thane and Dragonborn, sell herself in this story, though her backstory does include stripping and prostitution to pay for college. I also gave her some metabolic advantages through a serum developed from Lorenzo's Oil, which not only made her faster and stronger, but heightened her sex drive. Add to that the PTSD she suffers from killing people, not the easiest thing for a former crusading lawyer to do, and sex is about the only thing that will wear her out enough to sleep soundly. Most of the chapters, the majority in fact, have explicit sex scenes, lesbian and hetero, but not all of them do, and they never take up the whole chapter. I have posted seventy chapters on An Archive of Our Own, about three hundred and fifty thousand words. To put it in perspective, the novels I write, about a hundred thousand words, take about a month and a half for the first draft. I did two hundred thousand words on this tale in a month and a half. It is a labor of love, a passion project that I will never make a cent off of, but feel compelled to write.

It has been well received by its readers, but I was thinking I might want to put it up here as well. I'm only half way through the tale, and still have some shockers ahead. So, can I post it here? And if so, do I post it somehow on Lover's Lab,, or do I just link it to An Archive of Our Own? I want to know what is permissable before I step in some shit. Need any more information from me just ask. Oh, and I highly recommend Nemesis over FNIS, as the animations play so much smoother and the game loads more variety of them.

I have attached a sample chapter for anyone interested.

Well, while for the sake of anonymity, that can't really be ascertained ; it certainly sounds impressive. Some of us are considering to go professional, and might be inspired by that.

Not gonna lie, combining universes that much apart from each other seems like at delicate bet at best. Fallout lore and TES' one have nothing but their current editor in common, their writers are originally completely different, and they do not belong to the same category of fantasy.

 

Yet, proof of the pudding is in the eating, and so it would be ill inspired to make a judgment without a least a bit of reading.

Loverslab is indeed a suitable place for that, as it does not limits you in terms of content (with the notable exception of underage content), and naturally applies for fanfictions ; which of course can't really be officially licensed. Yet the club is only a place to make those easy to find, and to allow the authors do exchange over storytelling. The place you'll want to publish in is the blogs section (or in the fictions subforum, but it may get less exposure)

 

Keep in mind that due to the competition with subtitled and comic stories, and pure screens blogs, pure text stories aren't the most popular media on LL. Yet we have some notable, quite well written ones, which do benefit from the exposure of LL, and from the ease of navigation of its blogs interface (some of us have made really evolved blogs in terms of ergonomics).

 

I would also advice to publish them little by little (1-2/week) on a regular base, rather than all at once, which isn't efficient to get followers, and not really considerate towards the authors having published entries right before you.

Anyway, should you go for the blogs section, it'll be a pleasure to discover your works, BrotherOfCats.

Thank you for your response. I am really busy on a paying project right now, but soon I will start posting. A chapter at a time is fine. And I think this crossover might surprise some people. You would be surprised how many creators on Youtube post playthroughs of both, and pretty much have the same audience. Not for everyone, and I learned the hard way that there are some very particular fans out there, such as those who love scifi and won't touch fantasy, and the opposite as well. I grew up reading the Roberts, Heinlein and Howard, so have a love for both genres. As far as checking me out on Amazon, I really don't care about being anonymous on here, but I can understand the policy and will abide by it.

Hi. I have a question, maybe a simple one but I can't find the answer : What is the good size for the "feature photo" ?

Mine are always random. I went through blogs and I saw some nice of this thumbnail (thats the good word ?) so I wanted to try the create a good one for me.

@JyJyporridge My bad, I already read this post few month ago, didnt remember that part at all. Thank you.

No problem, you're welcome!

[Qalefir]

Hi everyone.

I've been working on it for 3 days but I can't find a good enough idea.

I'm looking to make a detestable character (a rich young woman here) and I want to setup some situation to show this. But I don't find any idea of this. If you have any idea, I take it.

[JyJyporridge]

@RDA

It depends what you want to do with your character.

You can make her humiliate others, maybe some blackmailing?

Do you want to make her a mischevious mastermind or only an obnoxious sassy rich girl?

Some ideas :

-Show that she can buy anything or anyone.

-She and her close circle of rich friends mock other people for being inferiors/poor etc.

-She got success in every thing she undertakes.

-Most everyone loves her because she's that lovely girl when she's in front of influent people, hiding her true nature.

-Every men wants her cause she's both beautiful and rich.

 

Hope it can help to start something. ?

Option 2, but this is the main character. Thank you for your help. I think I will make her a spoiled and racist spoiled woman who treats people as inferior.

the best are the ones that are passive aggressive. The ones where they say self-entitled, demeaning, racist things without saying it outright....but at same time, actually implying those things in how they say it/micro aggression.
