Everybody.

Been reading over this thread and have to admit, looks awesome.

I've played Lithians' Nature Of The Beast and Terran Vampires (which was great but I didn't find too RP or Lore friendly)

Anyway, want to add just in case no one stated or anything but if the storyline involved obtaining Molag Bal's blood, it could be done through obtaining his artifact.

I think that the "Blood Of The Daedra" quest might have been forgotten...

Perhaps make a new Molag Bal artifact and have a struggle between the factions to have possession or control of it. I won't go into effects or anything.

PS. Sorry if too late. I was reading past posts and practically screaming at my computer to let me put this there. Oh and if I missed something lorewise or threadwise, my apologies.

EDIT: Wait, seems like it is way too late. Oh well, seems like a nice add-on or end-quest.

I'm pretty sure there aren't concrete plans for molag bal yet so your idea may be considered. I kind of like the idea of making something using the blood of molag bal. And since molag bal likes to cause conflict I could see him giving power to both of his kin(rogues and covenant) just so he could enjoy the fight. I would be interested to see what artifact would be made/or power given is. Still can't wait for this mod to come out. I'm counting the days till halloween. Hope your RL projects are going well madmole.

Holy cow manure Madmole I've just recently started playing Oblivion again...now I'm going to put it on halt and go play some other things until you have this finally ready. I remember playing your "Romance" mod several years ago, and it is still one of my absolute favorite mods, which I burned to one of my mod archive DVD's for quick access. I've read most of the postings in this thread ( until my eyes became tired ), and I've looked at everything you have up showing us what is to come. I don't think I've ever been this excited about any other mod I've ever seen...including back when I was awaiting that first run of OOO to come out. I have NO suggestions...I think you have things WELL in hand as usual...take the time you need, as others have said and release this when you feel it is right. I'll check back from time to time, to keep abriast of what is going on until that time!

2 HUGE THUMBS UP Sir !!

Respect,

Hey Fal, I remember you! Good to see some old fans come out of the woodwork.

Update: I've been crazy busy with RL, and I doubt I'll make the halloween beta. I do want to start working on the mod again VERY SOON.... I'm just about done with saints row 2 and once thats done its MODDING TIME!!! I will probably start off with playing it a bit and documenting any bugs. I will probably start a new character and get back into things that way. Playing is the best way for me to get back into it. Anyhow, I'm glad to see you guys still here and waiting. I hopefully will start posting some real news soon enough

sounds good madmole :goodjob:

btw, how are you going to handle being cured of vampirism? will the player still be in the vamp faction? still have vamp allies? or will everyone just want to attack you on sight again?

Oh Madmole, just a question...I recently downloaded and started using that CuteElves race...what can I say I'm a total svcker for attractive female elves Ren's, CuteElves etc, etc. I assume that it won't matter what race someone chooses to play that everything should still be ok? Or should I just download the Raven Elves ( never even knew about them until reading this thread ) and utilize that...or maybe I can use both races?

Thanks MM,

Fal

I have NO idea how this posted Twice...sorry MM

I'm pretty sure it shouldn't matter, the only problem I can see arising with any other race mods is the googly eyes you get when you become a vampire. But I think madmole addressed that a long time ago and said he would help out if there was any problem. :icecream:

I've been watching this forum for a while and great job madmole!!!!!!

if make what u say i say say everything you want

As I turned vampire a couple of times but always reversed by restarting on older save, because I could not find any vampire mod that fit me, I stumbled across Nekhanimal's Awesome Vampire Mod! And he adds something that I did not see in your info - that vampires don't attack each other on sight. First I thought that it would not work since I got OOO and other mods adding vampires but it seemed he scripted it so vampires become less hostile. And I found this most satisfying; it also seems most probable to me that the "brotherhood of vampirism" would be somewhat tolerant of each others. Then one might expand this, some are less friendly, some even hostile etc.

Cheers!

Well there will be opposing factions of vampires. I'm not sure if that is what you mean. As far as vampires you meet in caves and ruins I'm not sure how they are being handled, I would like to say they will be untouched by this mod. But I'm not 100% sure. So you will have friendly vamps and aggressive one's though. And if that isn't quite what you want you could add yourself to the vampire faction making them friendly.

Actually, this behavior isn't uncommon with the Oblivion vampire mods. If I remember correctly, Scorn's had this years ago. If your fangs were showing, vanilla vampires didn't attack. Training Cattle allows the player vampire and vanilla vampires to collaborate in establishing vampires as a visible force in the world. Starx Vanilla Vampires Revised had vampire allies and enemies for the player, and Modular Oblivion Enhanced had a whole string of vampire quests. I'm sure that the same is true of other mods I don't remember.

I'll provide instructions on how to fix the eyes on custom races.

UPDATE:
Well real life has blindsided me with some serious obligations. It looks like I won't be able to continue serious modding until December now. SO sorry for the delays and such. I thank everyone for their patience.

Don't worry about it, real life beats video games any day

Don't worry about it! We Can wait however long you need us to. Besides, I always found that mods make great Christmas gifts.

That's this "Real Life" you speak of?

Indeed.

NPC's can follow, stand guard, stay put or resume old lives

What better way to celebrate Christmas than to become a vampire? haha Well hope everything goes well madmole
