Custom loading screen help

[Guest]

I am a big fan of the Sextreme loading screens, but i wanted to make my own mod (for personal use ) with my favorites in it. However, when i go to the creation kit and make a new loading screen, i can't select the nifs of the Sextreme loading screens, they just don't show up in the list of available loading screen models. I have made sure that the meshes and textures of the loading screens are in my Data folder. I have looked all over the internet and have pretty much gone over the creation kit 10 times in order to find a function that would allow me to add those nifs to the list of loading screen models, but to no avail.

 

So, please help me, kind people. I have been trying to do this for two days now -.-

TWO days???

 

Well fuck it I will let you strugle a bit more then. Took me a week to find all the required information. !!

Struggled enough yet?

 

 

 

 

Nah.. I am just fucking with you :-)

 

So, lets get started.

 

Every loading screen is made of two things. A Static object (that can be any nif. Preferably an amzing one made by me) and the actuall loading scrren. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

First you need to create a statcic and choose what nif it should be:

 

 

 

 

 

 

After you have created the static of the future loading scrren you need to create the loading screen too, and tell it to use that static. Now this part is a bit tricky. You also need to possition it correctly.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Now create the loading screen you want and as a loading screen select the nif you want (the one you just created obviously). Put in the text you want, And position it where it should appear. Every Sextreme loading screen (yes, every single one of them) has its unique positionig offsets. So if you want to recreate them you will need to wright those down first. 

 

I suggest you copy an existing loading screen when you make yours as the camera path nif is required for the loading screen to move, and it is not included when making a new one. It is also stored in Skyrim's .BSA you you can't browse to it either. Unless of course you are nuts enough to extract the entire .bsa. 

 

Another thing you can also do is just load up Sextreme loading screens as active in CK and start deleting stuff.

One thing I forgot to mention.

Here you will set the propability of your loading screens poping up

 

 

 

 

 

If it is 100% this loading screen will almost always be used. Occasionaly a vanilla might pop up.

So if you make one loading screen, even if it has 100% chances vanila loading screens will be seen occasionally

If you make 100 or 200 loading screens that all have 100% chances (when obviously you cannot see all of them at the same time) vanila loading screens will propably need a mirror

 

 

so they can properly kiss their ass goodbay

 

 

 

You can also set specific conditions there too.

For example for a loading scrren to appear (well, try to) only when entering Dark Brotherhood Sanctuary.
