Big Thanks to mardoxx for finding this

"Next DLC will be called Dragonborn. It is set in Solstheim. Main locations are Raven Rock, Miraak Temple, Castle Karstaag and Telvanni Tower. You will might be able to ride dragons. Also, new armor types, possibly horse (?) Bomemold, Chitin, Nordic and Stalhrim.

There are references to new creatures too, Riekling, Scrib (lol), Netch.. etc

PS3 DLC will come soon and so will mounted spell casting.


(*from)


This could, of cause, be an elaborate troll on Bethesda's part! The naming in Translate_*.txt is correct though, http://tsdr.uspto.go...pe=statusSearch

BenthicLurkerCharacter.hkx
Boar.hkx
BallistaCenturion.hkx
HMDaedraCharacter.hkx
NetchCharacter.hkx
RieklingCharacter.hk
Scrib.hkx


Character00 and Character01? Also Apo* and Benthic* if that means anything to anyone?

Idle animations IdleChiselStandingWipeBrow, IdleChiselKneelingWiggle, etc

MagicMountedBehavior.hkx --

Someone with more experience with CK games can probably extract more information.

Mounted casting is more important to me than flying dragons, to be honest.

There are some files with "vats" in its name. Whether this is left over from old Fallout 3 code or a new system is up in the air. I'm hoping its old code that just wasn't removed. A couple files pertaining to Dragon Mounts were in there as well so the argument for that has grown.

I'm hoping for some chain mail type of armors, but it will be so cool to see Stahlrim (spelling?) in a new render.

I agree. I wonder how this dragon mount thing is going to work.

I'm 98% sure that the VATS references are Fallout leftovers.

Along with the new armours, I'm hoping for some legitimate TOWER shields, as well.

I literally have zero experience with coding for games so I just read what I saw and jumped to conclusions. Hoping your right.

What do you guys think the nord armor will be like?
I'm thinking they will bring back Wolf armor, Bear armor, Ice armor and Nordic Mail for a speaicl stype of armor.

And the returning morrowind armors.
In the first thread about this. One of the post said something about the Dunmer controlling Solstheim. So I think all of the Dunmer armors would make a come back. (Because it would be strange to have an area controled by them and not have any of their culture. Skyrim is lacking that for Whindhelm.)
-Netch Leather.
-Boiled Netch Leathe.
-Chitin Helm.
-House helmets.
-Bonemold armor.
-Indoril armor.

The question then becomes which category do some of these fall into. Given that some were 'medium' armour types, which no longer exists as a separate category.

Seeing how DG gave armors to all vampires in the game, wouldn't be surprised if some of the new items find their way to Windhelm and Riften.
