Okey Dokey So I have just bought Skyrim and this mod has been on my want list since I read about it and so it is now installed via the Nexus Mod Manager.

I have read this in the readme...


Having just started the game and I'm now just past the point of creating a new character do I still need to wait / rest for the above actions to take place..?

Thanks for the mod and sharing it with us

No,If you just started a new character no need to wait out the respawn

that is for existing characters when you need to do that and when I make and update..

Enjoy..

Thanks and I'm sure I will enjoy.

Really excired for this project! I cant wait to see how it develops over time. Are you basically working alone on this Core PC? Keep up the good work!

I have friends

BellyAche his Animal and Creatures so that will be main Texture for Variants,
Starx provides his Talents.
Team Alpha but most of them are working on own project or handling Oblivion stuff.
The Community for input and feedback and the Resource they create..Has that is where most of stuff will come from with permisson..

But I have pretty much built all the rest outside of textures.. I am a Jack of all Trades when it comes to modding, expect I do not do scripting, quests, dialogue, advanced modeling and animation..I leave that to expert's in that area and they contribute.




I have the community to take input from and I go with it from that

I`ve just installed this and am looking forward to seeing what critters I can find roaming around Skyrim. I`m pretty busy with work at the moment but at the weekend I`ll try and grab some screenshots for you.

I feel soo bad lol. Last night I had to reinstall skyrim and delete my mods for bugs I've never experienced and also things looked fuzzier than usual in the distance.

Anyways I reinstalled loaded your mod with a few others that dont conflict but never waited 10 days. So I did my usual test of starting from whiterun and headed west across the tundra and the first thing I noticed was wild horses actually acting natural this time. But on the other hand there was still too much prey and I didnt run into any predators.

Then I went to the shipwreck by winterhold and ran around. Spawns were very scarce, and running around for 20 minutes I only ran into one snow wolf, one frost atranuch, and a snow sabrecat and a cave bear that never fought eachother and was only coming after me. So core do you think my experience was because I didnt wait the full 10 days?

Man I dont know if I did something wrong but I waited 10 days outside and Saw only sabre cats no lions in the plains, regular giants at a giant camp located in the snowy region near dawnstar, I seen two spriggans near dawn star, a cave troll a few yards away from the spriggan which should of been a frost troll, still not enough spawns I found my self sprinting for 5-10 minutes to find a hostile creature. I did see a couple of plains trolls. I honestly dont know if it installed right or what. I installed via the Nexus Mod Manager so I dont know if I had to do anything else. But its pretty annoying to run all over skyrim and be disappointed. Any help would be appreciated

More Pics. By the way Core you can put any of the pictures I take on the nexus or wherever

I changed the spawing system a little bit with addition of even more nested leveledlist. Need a little more fine tuning already working on it.

Frost Giant will never appear directly at Giant Camp, they only spawn from list and chance of both Giant and Frost Giant are still very slim.

Cave Troll close to Dawnstar could be handplaced will check in ck..

Getting alot of Plains Trolls, myself..

No I just did not spread the Big Cats out enough into region's - Already revamping leveledlist for .26

I love the Pics from above and you should be able to add pics directly to SCA on Nexus..

The First LIon Pic is great..

===============

Areas with nothing around, we need more wilderness spawn added flat out to fix that problem..

Anyone want to take a certain part of world and start placing LCharAnimal List every few cells

==============

I was thinking perhaps I should move the skeever into the Prey list..So foxes, hares, etc do not spawn so often and get something hostile in those areas where nothing else hostile is around..

Ok I noticed that there is no problem with your mod, but the spawns. Need more spawns as you already stated. On top of of more actual spawns I think certain animals should spawn in groups of 5 or more this makes battles more intense.

Here are some frost giant pics by winterhold, I know you cant really see him but I couldnt really resist with such a nice view.

Man if I knew how to help mod I'll definitely help on your project. Just need to know where to start

Another thing is I noticed you mispelled Flame Atranuch and put Fkame Atranuch. So I tried to go into the CK and fix it, but when I tried to overwrite the esp it said it was already in use. So is there a way to overwrite any changes without making a new esp?

oops not sure how that happend..

make sca active in ck and then edit it that way..find enc_flameatronach and fix the full name..that will fix all the other flame atronach that are set to use enc_flameatronach has a template..and fix sca1 and sca2 has well..

else I will have version .26 out later with some revamp to list and the name fix..

Has for placing new leveled actors in world, it is really just drop and place. But you have to pay attention to where you at, pathgrids, what region are you and what list should be dropped..

Do I load the skyrim esm and make your esp active?

Edit: Disregard I fixed it.

Hey I think each different creature should only have their own faction plus spriggan faction. For example, Lions should have a lions faction, so they will fight other big cats not a part of their species. You see it in africa, leopard gets a kill and hides in tree while lions try to get the kill and they will attack the leopard or cheetah.

Anyways why is it not possible to spawn your creatures via console command?

Lion, Leopard, Tiger Faction consider it done..I may have to make so other faction adjustments to get everything to behave has expected. But I will see..

Not sure I do not spawn things from the console..I hope to run into things..

I asked about the spawns because last night I spawned a regular sabrecat to adjust the size bigger but not too big. So when we see sabrecats we can really tell the difference in size vs lions tigers etc.

So could you check out 1.0950 for scale and tell me what you think for sabre cats? I also wanted to scale the other cats but couldnt spawn them and they are hard to find too.

As far as factions if you are really ambitious you can do something similar to what bethesda did with goblins in Oblivion. There were different tribes of goblins all over the place. So maybe we could do this with creatures that it fits with. Like add random packs of wolf that have there own pack name, or different pride names for lions. So there could actually be a chance of lions fighting lions wolves etc. Basically a territory thing.

I would actually do it myself to help, still learning the CK. Also wanted to bring to your attention that bellyache has an updated lion because the lion I saw in your mod looks like he has stripes so you might want to check it out.
