Hi guys,

I'm working on a project involving virtual navigation, and I'm looking for an engine that will fit my needs.
I was hoping you could help me out, before I dive into Creation Engine for nothing.

Basically, I need the following,

- I want to be able to walk around in Skyrim, specific locations object don't really matter...
- I need the first person view of this to be saved either as individual frames or as mpeg/avi videos (I want to avoid having to use some kind of third-party screen capture software).
- Most importantly: I need to get some kind of measure of the path that is being walked, such as x-y map coordinates / direction heading and speed etc.. Ideally, this would be recorded in a simple a format as possible (such as in a text-file).

Does the Creation Engine allow me to do this, and, as I have programming experience but no experience with modding or game engines, how much effort/time would this cost. Anything from 1-3 days of work would be fine, I just don't want to end up spending weeks on this.

Thanks for your help!

well the measuring part could be done by dropping invisible markers behind you periodically, then measuring the distance between the last two, adding that to the total, deleting the furthest one, and repeating the process. It would, of course, break down if you entered an interior cell.

Unfortunately, there is no way to output the to an external file. You could create a Linked List and save the data in each node, but I know of no way to save the info out.
