Slof's Vampire Illusion

Edit: On TESNexus; see post #149.

From http://www.slofshive.co.uk/index.php?page=news , an exerpt:

Yep, I really mean it this time. Years and years and years of insults for simply sharing my creations freely. I guess it builds up after a while to the point where it just cannot be tolerated any more. My mods are gone. They will remain gone.
.....
I ask that my mods not be uploaded anywhere else. To do so is in direct violation of my wishes. No further permissions for use will be given. That's it. It's over. I am moving on.

~~That's pretty clear. I share your disappointment as it is one that I also cannot seem to locate.~~

You might do best looking for a copy from someone, passed privately rather than uploaded somewhere, in respect of Slof's wishes. [YMMV. Folk have differing views about the 'take backs' and 'reuploading' issues.]

Vampire Illusion may be one that she'd be more willing to allow back into general use, since there are other mods that rely on it and because it wasn't a solo mod; I've noted that several of the mods she co-wrote with Peter have remained up. Someone who is already friends with her would be the best to ask that though, at the moment I'm guessing she is likely getting swapped with emails from people begging her to put stuff back up and as she said part of the reson she took them down was health reasons, being hounded is unlikely to be helpful.

Agreed. As much as I hate to see her work removed, I understand the reasons behind it. I also share Ronin's opinion that her mods should be shared privately rather than linking to a temporary download on these, or any other, forums as that would just add insult to injury.

As for Vamipiric Illusion, I would hesitate to contact her or the co-author at this point. As Morgrim said, it's possible that she'd be willing to upload somewhere, but being deluged by emails is no mod author's idea of fun.

I've got a request for you that might be rather challenging. I remember a while back I found a mod that took the house part of the Anastasio The Great mod (which you can still download) and moved it to Balmora. It was accessed by a secret door in an alley. You had to hit a switch to make the hatch come out of the ground. I like the original mod, but the Balmora location is much more convenient. Thanks.

I'm looking for a mod I stumbled upon awhile ago. It changes NPC enchanters so that when you use them to make an enchanted object all the spell effects will be available instead of just the ones you know how to cast. So if I wanted to make a Jinkblade but don't know any spells that paralyze I could get an NPC enchanter to make it. I don't remember anything about it's title. All I remember is that I saw it on PES.

Was it http://planetelderscrolls.gamespy.com/View.php?view=Mods.Detail&id=3823?

No but it will work just as well. Thanks!

ok there was a soundpack i used a while ago that had music similar to the stuff in the conan movie, but i cant seem to find it anywhere now, halp?

Lilarcor talking sword pack came with the music from conan. Here's a link, but I'm not positive the updated version has it. http://planetelderscrolls.gamespy.com/View.php?view=Mods.Detail&id=953

It does, because I remember deleting those sound files.

<_< That was embarassingly easy to find. Thank you. I just assumed the mod wouldn't still have the original name in the title.

Hi, I looking for Faction Service Requirements v1.4.3 by http://web.archive.org/web/20050204015834/www.angelfire.com/games5/vanhikes/, it should be an updated version based on vanhikes wellknown http://planetelderscrolls.gamespy.com/View.php?view=Mods.Detail&id=4548 v1.3. I was able too : retrieve the http://web.archive.org/web/20050209075105/www.angelfire.com/games5/vanhikes/Service_Requirements.txt with help from the Wayback Machice. sence Thelys was a frence mod site my best guess is that it's possibly hosted at the frence Elder Scrolls fan site/mod site. Just an idea. Hope it not loose.

I would also be interested in a copy if someone can find it.
It appears that Version 1.4.3 was probably not on TheLys before it folded but rather on Morrowind-mods.org from Euro-morrowind as 20030705_0021_Service_Requirements_V1.4.3_Vanhikes+_26+make.zip, uploaded there by StaticNation. Hope that helps someone to locate this mod.

And for a change, a link to an older mod that I had lost and recently replaced, again thanks to the inestimable Beardo:
http://www.mediafire.com/file/v0bihdmyejy/opendaedrichelmet.rar - author unknown. No readme. If this is the mod that I think it is, there is a Khajiit wandering around Bal Sur [?] waiting for you to loot this helmet from his corpse; a Daedric textured Dragonscale open face helm IIRC.
Enjoy.

Hello. I was wondering if anyone knew where Taddeus' Balanced Alchemy mod was. I used Yacoby's search and look in PES and couldn't find it.

~~I'll upload it once I get home if no one beats me to it.~~
Nevermind, a quick google search for "taddeus balanced alchemy" found it... on the first page too. http://wikiwiki.jp/morrowind/?Mod%2F%B7%CF%B6%E2%A1%DD%20--%20Taddeus%27%20Balanced*. Just click the link to the whole balanced mod pack as it's included in that.

Long time ago I saw a mod that turned the player into a sort of ghost after their character died and placed them in a random position. The player then had to find their way back to their character's corpse to resurrect themselves. Shenanigans may or may not have happened along the way. I wouldn't mind giving this mod a shot in the near future if anyone's able to direct me towards it.

Yes, there are also a couppla older pre-MWSE mods that are similar:

http://www.elricm.com/nuke/html/modules.php?op=modload&name=Downloads&file=index&req=getit&lid=420 by Max a.k.a. ~NOBODY~ & Marbred

This mod gives you a chance to become an immortal, but powerless spirit, after death. When you die, you may be transported to a semi-random location on Vvanderfell(Ancestral Tomb, cavern, or just in the middle of the Ashlands), and recieve the spirit's curse: Nobody sees you, you can't attack or use magic, but you can fly at good speeds, and have the freedom to explore the "beauty" of Vvardenfell. You will also recieve a spirit amulet, which you can't unequip. This will continue, until you find your corpse, and after that everything will return to normal, until you die another time.

http://planetelderscrolls.gamespy.com/View.php?view=Mods.Detail&id=1613 by Dale Stocker

This is for you gamers that don't think the last saved game is fair to use till you finaly make it past that monster with no regard for how many times you die. With this MOD when you die you go back to your start. Yes, the magical Amulet teleports you back to the temple on your death and there they resurrect you. There will be a 200gp bounty added to you for payment of the resurrection 1. New start location, Balmora Temple. 2. On death you are transported to the Temple. 3. Amulet of Resurection
