What is TID?

Things in the dark, a big story mod centered on falmer. Lot of potentiel, buy bugged as hell.

It needs a full rework, but I failed to redesign tne city.

For now, I'll just rewrite the first chapter, as dark investigation like.

I see you developed your concept.

I'm interesting to see your drawing.

Okay, found one of my concept drawings.  Hopefully this will make some sense to you and I'll post notes about what is where and some reasons for doing things a certain way below.

 

The map, Juutvol Isle

Spoiler

805178621_JuttvolIsle.thumb.jpg.07dd0af2b914c3c4a5e8a004da8ec13b.jpg

 

A - Fort Ingmarsen, the Jarl's residence

B - High District, where the wealthier and influential residents live

C - Market District, main part of town where you find the market building and various vendors and traders and warehouses (one warehouse has an entrance to a secret tunnel which connect to the hidden pirate cave).

D - Common District, this is where most people live.  Includes the communal bath house which has a natural cave with hot springs beneath it.

E - Herders houses - homes of people who keep herds of reindeer, goats and some cows to supply meat, milk and cheese

F - Old Lighthouse - connected to the town wall by a "harbor wall"

G - Mushroom Farmers - couple of caves in the cliff behind it are used to grow mushrooms.  Another farmer grows a crop of snowberries in fields outside (2-3 farm houses here)

H - Web Wood - tall pine forest covering this area.  Infested with frost bite spiders who nest in the trees and drop onto the unwary.  The edge of the forest overlooks a cliff with the farms on the plain below.  This mostly keeps the spiders in the forest and the farms safe. 

I - Pirate Cave - this large cave contains a small harbor with room for a couple of ships.  It was built by the Imperials who built the fort and there is a tunnel connecting to a warehouse in town and also to the fort which was meant as an escape route.  Its now used by pirates who are all also cultists.  The entrance is partially hidden by a rock outcrop.

J - Ice Fields - large glacial chunks of ice cover this area which slopes down into the sea.  A few old Nord stone huts can be found here, some half buried in the ice.  There are also steam caves in the ice, some inhabited by frost trolls.  Horkers can be found closer to the coast and are hunted for meat, fat and their tusks.  The Nord structures are from the first settlement which was build before the island froze.

K - Cauldera - the blown out crater of the now inactive volcano.  Rocky, difficult to traverse and covered in hot steam vents and fog.  There may be mineral deposits here or gem geodes.  Not much else of interest, the hot steam can be dangerous (does damage).

L - Ship Wreck - this is the wreck of an Imperial ship that was bringing food, vegetables, fruits and other supplies to the fort.  In the captains cabin an old log book can be found.  It tells of how a week out of port on their way here two sailors died in the night, then more, and the crew feared the plague until a large dead spider was found with another dead sailor.  A search revealed empty eggs among the fruit, a clutch of frost bite spiders had hatched out.  It was too late, they had grown to the size of dogs now and began attacking the crew.  By the time the ship neared the island, most of the crew was dead and the survivors were locked in the captains cabin.  The ship wrecked on a rocky beach and broke apart.  The spiders moved inland and found a new home in the pine forest, this is how it became infested.  The log book is over 100 years old.

 

The harbor would be how the player arrives and leaves the island, aboard a ship docked here.  There could be other trade ships, up to you.  It would seem a normal harbor.  The pirates/cultist are hidden away elsewhere in the cave, which will make that stuff less obvious and harder to find.

 

The ancient temple is now mostly buried, but, perhaps there might be part of it that could still be accessed somewhere in the Web Wood or through a steam cave in the ice fields... this could give an investigating player an alternate means of access in case they've managed to turn the whole town against them.

 

There are a couple of reasons for splitting the town into sections.  One, it gives you more control over what the player has access too.  Maybe they have to get permission or earn a certain amount of trust before they're allowed in certain parts which makes sneaking around and snooping dangerous if they get caught (not that that will stop people).  Also it gives a way to hide occlusion planes which help reduce the strain on Skyrim's old rendering engine so FPS doesn't drop too low.

I don't know.

- I don't know to link death alternative mods... It's why dark arena is incompatible with death alternative.

- The idea is simple : of Dagon appears, you're so close to the greant ancient you'll just die (like most of the other cultists :))

Counterpoint 1: We're Dragonborn and thus not like 'most of the other cultists.'

Counterpoint 2: We're a Player and want to have as much fun as possible. If there is going to be tentacle sex and breeding, it'll be a crying shame not to see it, if not outright join in.

Things in the Dark, ein großer Story-Mod rund um Falmer. Viel Potenzial, kaufen Sie verdammt verwanzt.

Es muss komplett überarbeitet werden, aber ich habe es versäumt, die Stadt neu zu gestalten.

Fürs Erste schreibe ich einfach das erste Kapitel neu, so wie dunkle Ermittlungen es mögen.

 

I'm a big fan of the "SL-Parasite" mod - which sheds a completely new light on the Falmer and the Chauruse.


I wish for something now...
...a loose thematic link - there doesn't even have to be a real interaction between the two mods.

I got a glitch on the Inquiry: Frelys quest where when you play rock paper scissors with Norren nothing happens, and you just stand there whether you win or lose. I got all the requirements but not all the soft requirements. Anyone got any ideas? Appreciate the help in advance.

The inquiry frelis quest seems to be broken as once we play rock paper scissors it only plays for one round unless its a tie. After he strips noting happens and if I loose nothing happens aswell without even stripping. When I choose the other options to playing his game nothing happens aswell after the conversation stops. Could I get the quest Id so I can use commands to skip that portion.

stuck on finding the spies can someone help 

You need to talk with someone who serves Dagon but not the Cult itself. Search Insmouth carefully, and don't leave any door unopened.

The answer is below, if you just want to end the quest by now.

Spoiler

It's the Priestess on the Boat. Why does she know? Why doesn't Mankara know? Why don't the invisible Lurkers know? Why can't you just use your keen deductive racism to ID the spy via them being the only High Elf in Insmouth? Who knows!

Tested the introduction quests on SE:

-Black faces on every mod NPC

-Rock paper scissors is broken(had to skip to the end of the quest stage 300)

-Winterhold the same thing: pathfinding is broken for npcs, its does not register the stage where you talk with chieftain for the first time(setstage has done most of the work, together with move to player)

-Solitude and Windhelm work as intended. 

 

@Delzaron will you continue this in the near future? Read your plans for both this(Thief like) and for your other mod(DI like). Both mods are fantastic examples of going beyond Skyrim's simplified questing(shame DI was not continued). It is quite an undertaking you are going for here.

I already advanced and solve some of that bugs.

But there is still work to do.

I worked on Ravenous until recently. Ravenous still need fixes, specially for the last implemented quest.

 

But yes, FTD will advance.

Dawnstarr navmeshe is fixed, I need to work on wintherhold one, but the navsmeshe in the riekling cave works.

Rock paper scissors is updated, but not tested.

For rikelings, I need to remove the hook : the two npcs can't be proceeced the same time. instead, I'll add a cout.

Black face is normal, no face gen for now.

All right, will test the next version when you update it and send a detailed bug report. Doing something on the level of Thief/DI is a great undertaking, and I would like to help in that.
