Castle Hvitkald

Post » Tue Oct 12, 2010 5:10 am

1st: looks cool
second:I like solstheim castle alot better
3rd: Lower your ego. Just because you put in words like "epic" and "kickass" does not make the mod so. Respect other peoples efforts in mods, and dont belittle them in front of your own "Kickass"castle mod. there are tons of awesome projects MUCH better than this one, and dont even dare to call them rubbish, just because you dont like them.

I second sasuke21's sentiments. You have made a cool looking castle, but it's not the greatest ever. I agree with you that you can achieve nice things without re-texturing everything or creating new meshes and what have you but that doesn't make other peoples work that makes use of such things any better or worse than something without the use of new media. I personally like the flavor of vanilla morrowind and don't use new textures or anything within my own game (with the exception of things added by the various province mods I work with, but they don't change the vanilla game they add to it) so I can understand where you are coming from, just don't bash other peoples work to voice your opinion. It can be done in a better way.

Happy modding, and hopefully happy commenting from this point forward.

Opinions are fun.

Yea I never said mine was better than every single other mod... Please don't misinterpret my enthusiasm.

Please feel free to point out where I name and shame other mods as being specifically worse than mine. The issue with he neverhalls mod is simply an incompatibility. I'm not going to start crying if u say you don't want to use my mod, haha ive got other things to worry about than little things like that.

I made his mod for myself, I have already stated that it is not 100%my full effort. Just a simple mod I put together for myself, Whig I decided to share with others.

There's only one person I wanted to please with this mod, and that's me. Mission achieved. If even one other person gets a kick out of it(like many already have) then that's even better!

You guys need to take a deep breath.

Looks like this conflicts with the location where the Wolfsbane flower grows, thus ruining any chances of ever completing the Lycanthropy Cure quest.
Or did you move the flower somewhere else?

Don't worry, he added an alternative to get access to that plant. A merchant inside the castle sells it.

--------------------------

Lack of extensive questing aside ( which is admittedly not what I usually do in in own mods) I still believe this is a better mod, at least in terms of game life


Yea, but neverhalls is boring. Castle Hvitkald is a long term use mod, not some short one use mod.
Bias aside, this mod is better.
I can't, and won't, move the entire castle just for that mod. Maybe neverhalls should move for this one


I have been made aware of this mods incompatibility with the Neverhalls mod that a few people like.. Having also played with that mod, and subsequently having removed it due to its limited game life and general boringness, I have and will not attempt to make this compatible. This mod is a long term use mod, and I believe if you don't use this mod, just because you now won't be able to get into the essentially useless neverhalls, then goodluck to you. Perhaps any rumored new releases for neverhalls should make themselves compatible with my mod..


...No contest IMO but ...


Like you said, just pointing out :whistling:

Maybe if you read what I said, yu could have saved all that effort. I said where do I say mine is better than any other mod CONSIDERING I have already pointed out that my issue with neverhalls is not that it is inferior, just that it is not to MY taste and that I like my mod better.

I would still love to see where I specifically point out and NAME another mod that I said is specifically worse than mine.

Got to love the internet

It's unfortunate that this mod conflicts with the Neverhalls. Because of this, I don't see myself ever actually using this castle. The Neverhalls is just one of those esps that will never ever get unchecked from my mod-list. I am pretty certain I'm not alone in this, either.

I do hope you make the castle mod you are hoping to make, however, and I hope it is a satisfying experience for you. <3

Unfortunately, a mod can't be rated on how much the author loves it.

You just got done trashing the Neverhalls back there. Does that one count?

Oh, and...
I havent used plastic looking, crappy models/textures

Plastic, and crappy, like http://i974.photobucket.com/albums/ae229/SG-Monkey/Skyrim/Morrowind2010-08-1321-17-12-56.jpg or http://i974.photobucket.com/albums/ae229/SG-Monkey/Skyrim/Morrowind2010-08-1501-49-22-44.jpg

I am allowed to like my own mod. Of course. Given the positive feedback its gotten, id say im not alone in my opinion.

I have not trashed the Neverhalls. I have said that it is a short-term use mod, which it is (complete quest, no real point to ever go back there). I have also said that i dont run the mod. This does NOT mean that i dislike the mod. I have played it, i have been impressed by the work done on the textures and was mildly entertained by the questing. Due to its uniquness, i probably agree that it deserves its HoF place. Its just that once it served its purpose, i put the 250th mod spot to better, long-term use.

Please, guys, think and read before you type.

Edit: and you are still unable to name another (non-neverhalls) mod that i have specifically named as being worse than mine. (just to save your time, i havent). So saying that im 'saying im better than every other mod' is simply and purely nonsense.

lets try and be positive guys.
