Absolutely breathtaking! In my opinion, I think you should not upload this race mod to the steam workshop or the nexus. I say this because Lovers Lab should get some of its own fame for all of the intricate mods that the community developed like this one. And anyway, you know those sites have haters that simply don't understand are not even willing to either... Damn trolls
Lopenguin Posted April 15, 2012 Posted April 15, 2012 Can't post adult mods on the steam workshop, anyway.
UnlikelyH3ro Posted April 17, 2012 Posted April 17, 2012 This race has come a long ways. I've been visiting this thread since it was started and keeping myself updated on all the progress. GREAT WORK! The thing that makes this mod unique compared to every other mod is that the race isn't completely humanoid and looks more beast'ish. I'm not exactly sure I'm saying that right but I hope you know what I mean. This reminds me of the frog race on Everquest. They don't look like humans at all, which made them my favorite race to play. Even though I said this mod is good the way it is, I think it would be kinda cool to see what a female Cellan would look like with a more curvy human like body and animal face. I don't want to sound like an unsatisfied brat, so I apologize if it sounds that way. Just wanted to share my thoughts in case it might be something you guys would be interested in pursuing. I'm happy either way. This race is turning out WELL! Thanks again for all the effort.
jeffdraco Posted April 18, 2012 Posted April 18, 2012 I think it's perfect the way it is. love the progress and how fast it is going. for a more curvy race like it a mink is very close although smaller than a otter. That may go good as another race is this goes well(and I have a lot of friends looking very much forward to this release so I am sure it will). On a side note are they going to work with the base animation or are they going to have to be done specifically for this race?

On a side note are they going to work with the base animation or are they going to have to be done specifically for this race? As far as I know, the base animations work perfectly with them, after importing them in nifscope. Unfortunately there is the unfortunate effect of having them explode everywhere when I put them in game, a problem I ran into once with a female body replacer once. (Literally there was these nightmarish hoards of polygons that just were exploding all over the screen whenever a woman walked by, suffice it to say I removed the mod right away.) I think I might be able to fix it without much work but its a confusing problem for now. Perhaps a curvier animal for a later mod? Speaking of later mods, what do you guys think of sexual dimorphism for animals and monsters a la sexualized monsters for oblivion? Its something that has always bothered me and I was wondering if any one else feels the same.

[/quote'] The third paragraph where you mention curvier animal's for a later mod, that's exactly what I meant. This mod is PERFECT the way it is looking right now. Maybe later, a more sex appealing curvier female body and muscular male body could be implemented into a new mod. Would definitely be first on the download list if it was pursued. I would help but I am terrible at using these programs. All I can do is just sit back, relax and enjoy what is given to me. As for the last paragraph, I agree with you as well on the sexual dimorphism. All the animals/monsters in game look EXACTLY the same. Which one's female which one's male? I think they all are the same sex and reproduce asexually. lol!

Lopenguin Posted April 18, 2012 Posted April 18, 2012 I think its refreshing to see another race that doesn't have a human body. Maybe once someone figures out how to easily add completely custom races, I would love to add other unique-looking ones.

[/quote'] As it turns out, its surprisingly easy. http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=13561 I just am awful at modelling, and have trouble with even the simplest things in that department. Really. I have hundreds of thousands of ideas. Its just the lack of artistic ability that gets in the way of most if not all of them.

It's also nice to have a cute little furry girl character with a female human body too. hehe

I can easily see them as lovely and curvaceous, perfectly shaped, well if you like pears anyway. Big round hips, voluptuous rump.
Lopenguin Posted April 18, 2012 Posted April 18, 2012 Psh, humanoids are easy, just model the head and tail.

They had black dots on their hips and thighs.

jeffdraco Posted April 19, 2012 Posted April 19, 2012 i think it would be great. I am sure they will be very skilled thief...Treasure Hunters:dodgy:. One i had thought of but have to little skill to make is the rest of the lycans. They have only done the wolf and boar but they have never released the bear, crocodile, lion, shark, and vulture. I really don't think the crocodile would be able to survive in skyrims harsh weather but the rest could most likely be able to make a home in the nord lands. I always thought it would be cool to have the rest of the lycans and if they had a bit more of a sex appeal all the better. and who would not want to play a cute little cellan that turns into a 8' werebear:D
Yanazake Posted April 21, 2012 Posted April 21, 2012 Ok, NO MUSCULAR MALES - There's already enought of them in Skyrim as it is. This is coming along great, I salute you and hope to help once you get the race working in skyrim. You know, you'll have to convert the armors to them! I'm sure I have enought skills with modelling to help you with that, my only problems are importing and exporting stuff. About the Lycans... 1: La Femme Lycanna and Derrax male werewolves are just perfect. I'm playing a custom race called Waalsark [something like that] which is some kind of artificial canid race. My female char turns into a female werewolf just nice [and thank god for that, since I don't have a horse and when I get overemcumbered, I can just transform and run to the next city xD] 2: about the other lycans, YES, PLEASE, someone has to add them. There was a project to add a lizard and a werecat, but the modder kind of disappeared. That said, if someone works on the rest of them while hoping that the bear is released... Alright, that's it. On a last note, I'm sure I can do some good models if someone points me the basics of import/export stuff - that's my main problem right now. I've been trying to fix one of the headgear that don't fit the beast races in skyrim, but no luck to even get the model into blender. Ah, right - something about the locations makes things interesting: Not sure where the werewolves should stay - maybe some random caves, or glades. The boars should be found in the plains. Vultures, they go into the mountains, maybe with hagravens like slaves. Sharks, up in the ocean - there needs to be more stuff in all that wather up there... The crocs... well, there is a marsh in there, right? The bears, caves again. Finally, the cats. Not sure about them, but maybe in the areas with more vegetation, small forests and glades too?
Lopenguin Posted April 22, 2012 Posted April 22, 2012 I want a minotaur race. They are lore-friendly too.
infectious Posted April 22, 2012 Posted April 22, 2012 I want a minotaur race. They are lore-friendly too. I think on the nexus i saw something like a minotaur outfit.
GDelscribe Posted April 23, 2012 Author Posted April 23, 2012 Nifs are coming along slowly, but alright.
infectious Posted April 27, 2012 Posted April 27, 2012 Rigging is hella difficult v-v; Agreed, Back in my modding days, i used to rip models from games and port them into fallout 3 and GOD did it take forever to rig them...
