Thanks ;)

Guys are so much easier to make in this game than girls for some reason. I think it has to do with the jaw/cheeks... but the hardest part of this char was actually the skintone.


What's her profile if I may ask? And that sword looks weird...

What do you mean by her profile? Like what class/skills? That pic was at lvl 10, and she's mainly a blade/light armor... but i had her start off with heavy armor because 1) it was better at low level... 2) to build up endurance so i can get more health.

As for the weapon, that's just a plain elven sword.

Here is a pic of the frown I was talking about. I'm not sure why she does it to some NPCs and not others. It's not disposition, in that pic she's frowning at an NPC who has a disposition of 86 towards her. I went there to see if she'd smile!


She's hot! I did'nt think it was possible to make a hot chick.

Thanks :beer: I'm happy how she came out not looking all girly. She looks like she might kick your @ss! :Q



I doubt it - my leveling system assures 3 x 5 Stat ups the whole game. Like lvl 8 now with str and endur of 80 already!! :p By lvl 20 I'll be maxed in all.

Do You have the prison save of her so I can play her after ability reordering?

Thinking of

Nord - Atronach for heavy spell resistane and unlimted mana in a fire fight.

Primaries (which I hardy use except for when I want to level)

Athletics
security
Merchant
Alchemy
destruction
block
Sneak

I did the same thing too... and then realized i put way too much time into maximizing things rather than playing the game. Heck, i would sit at my computer casting spells over and over so i could get +5 in INT or Will Power. And the game was getting way too easy when you max your character like that. I Had to increase the difficulty for some challenge. So instead, i've put some often used skills in Majors like Block and Heavy/Light Armor... but not something like Blade or Restoration... because that would just level me like hell. I can level without purposely needing to focus on it... but it's not so quick that my other skills can't catch up.
Well It's more the principle of the matter I mean if the game makes 3x5 available to you it's negilgence IMO to not max out every level up. Race, gender, class & skills should be designed to squeeze as much out of the system as possible. Also it's fun to plan right: part of gaming experiance. Third I remeber from Morrowwind when I straight leveled - Picking skills I use most as primaries- I was extremly weak by about lvl 10 with only +1 an +2 ability modifiers. Got kicked in most battles. Anyway whatever works for you.

PAIN- You got prison level save of your Nord?

Hey... make your own hawt Nord lady :p

I do have a sewer exit save of that char - just plain old Warrior template on it (not what I'm playing her as now) - if you seriously want it, I'll send it to your gmail (or PM me another)... Nords are kinda crappy as casters though, at least to start out - only 30 INT makes for a lousy mana pool...

Farmer how does the game run on your rig? I have a 6800ultra and a very similiar rig as in terms of performance, what resolution do you run it at? settings? Bloom or HDR? What kind of fps are you getting? I just want to make sure the game will run okay on my 19" 940b before i splurge the cash. thx.

It runs great; may get chuggy at some places, but otherwise, it's smooth as butter at 1280x1024, max settings. Keep in mind, though, I have HDR enabled, and the game for some reason does not allow me to turn on any AA whatsoever with HDR enabled, so you can obviously notice the jaggies in those screenshots. I could definitely force AA via the nVidia console, but I have yet to try that.

To keep it short, yes, it's more than playable, and it looks good.

For some reason, only the X-Box 360 version can run with AA AND HDR at the same time. I don't know why though. It would be interesting to try to force AA through the console like you said, Farmer.

It's also encouraging that the game runs so well in your rig, Farmer. Mine is similar and I'll be getting a 7800GS (AGP) soon to play this game at 1280x1024, so hopefully I can expect similar results :)

For some reason none of the female characters in this game look attractive to me.

Seems I won't be making manginas when I finally get it :(

where'd ya got the armor :eek: ?

He cheated. ;) I didn't encounter any ebony armor until level 15...



I don't cheat. I found some warrior in a cave ruin and whooped arse. I've already hit about 50 caves/ruins so I'm rich too - got about 10K. I really don't level up fast way I play (picking major skills I don't use as discribed eariler) I doubt i'll hit lvl 15.

Here is a pretty looking character. I don't know her race though, looks human, am I right?

No, she's a Dunmar:
