The Ace Posts: 3,316 Group: Member Member #9 Joined: December 3, 2007	To start, let me say this is my first mod ever. Its been in construction for 6 weeks now and Ive made reasonable progress considering my skill level and amount of free time. This mod revolves around the little villiage of Weye, adding life and atmosphere to the once dull, one house, one inn, "town". NPCs will have full schedules that relate to their assigned ocupation. So far (most likely final) I have 9 custom NPCs: -A Warrior, kinda like the leader of the town. He will be the central source of the MQ -A Shepherd, and what would a shepherd be without a herd of sheep -A Hunter, yep... he hunts deer and drinks ale The hunter has a wife and a 'kid'. -A Farmer, complete with a small farm -A gardener who has managed to germinate plants from all over Cyrodill in her backyard -A stableboy/blacksmith -A fisherman There are 3 more planned NPCs complete with a house and schedule. One will most likely be a general merchant selling general items, weapons, armors, scrolls, and possibly a select few spells. The other a butcher and the other a scholar. Along with the new NPCs, I made new custom houses. One house is a player home which will likely be rewarded through quests. EDIT- UPDATE 10/14 The Main Quest was inspired by the Triforce; courage, power, and wisdom. Aganor, a retired Legion veteran and resident of Weye, has reports of heavy Bandit activity to the West. He send the player to investigate. After completing the first dungeon, the player will start to uncover secrets of a powerful item (wip- hopefully a sword that shoots lightning but idk if its possible) which can only be possessed by one who is Brave, Powerful, and Wise. There are three shards which are found in their corresponding dungeon. Aganor, with his many years of experience, will guide the player and possibly help along the way. This Item cannot fall into the wrong hands. (keep in mind this is still in the works) I have >3 custom dungeons: - (Currently undergoing cosmetic changes) Mine of Reticent Courage - which gives the player quite a chalenge making him utilize his trained skills. Rather short but challenging. I might make the mine bigger than its current one tier layout but only time will tell. (progress= 85% complete) - EDIT- 10/14 The second is a testing grounds of sorts It will be a test of skill and strategy. The player will face off against 5-8 Guardians progressively in several different areas. Areas include 2 custom worlds, which Im pretty proud of, a couple custom dungeons, and a surprise or two ;). The player will have to utilize his/her surrounding to defeat the Guardians if they wish to move on. (progress= 50%) - The Wisdom Dungeon will be, as I said before, a test of wits and careful planning. The player must endure riddles, traps, and mazes to make it to the end of this large dungeon. Plans of making more than one dungeon, i.e. Aleid Ruin, Fort Ruin with more traps, riddles and mazes than you'll know what to do with. (progress= 5%) Once the player uncovers the Lost shards, a map/clue/something is revealed to him guiding him to the Hidden Item. Once the item is in the players hands, an evil is alarmed of the Items uncovering. This evil is drivin only by the power of the Item. It searches constantly and eventually finds it in the hands Aganor the Warrior. You must now defeat this Evil being and send it to Oblvion! Become the Hero of Weye! Im still trying to work out a solid story line to fit in with all of this cosmetic stuff so stay tuned to updates. Still looking for feedback/suggestions/critisism and ofcourse some testers. /EDIT- UPDATE 10/14 Im not sure of an ETA because brings something new but if progress is as good as it has been, then this mod should be hitting the DL sites in the next few months or so. The reason I posted this WIP so soon was because I wanted to ask if anyone would be willing to do some Beta testing. I have almost all of the visual aspects (houses, landscaping) of this mod wraped up as well as being completed with the NPCs scheduals. If you would like to help me out, I would be extremely greatful. Just let me know! Screenshots!

The only issue that can come out of that is that the mod will never be finished. I'm not saying this won't, but I am warning you. But, it does sound pretty fun.

The Ace Posts: 3,316 Group: Member Member #9 Joined: December 3, 2007	I know its big and that's why I'm so stoked! Its like 49% DONE and I just started like a month ago. All I have left to do is Quests and the dungeon (which would be a first for me also) and that shouldn't take too long. I have the main quest like 10% planned but it's not going to be started until its 100% thought out anyway. In the mean time I'll create the dungeon and think of more Misc. Quests which are about 40% thought out already too. That and create my sword... I don't think I'll be making the armor because Blender is WAY more confusing than I originally anticipated. The only bad thing about this whole mod is that there is another, very popular mod that takes place in Weye. Its called AFK Weye and it sounds pretty uber. I honestly don't think it looks that cool. I mean, you do get to basically build the town from two shops to a bustling village but its just that... a bustling village right outside the IC. Why would you need shops and merchants when you can walk across the bridge and have it all and more? With that said, I am going in-game to gather some screen shots and I'll post them tonight. P.s. Im still looking for testers cause my machine can't catch everything SCREENSHOTS ^^^^^ Edited by aceball69, Oct 1 2009, 10:02 PM.

The Ace Posts: 3,316 Group: Member Member #9 Joined: December 3, 2007	Alright, well the expansion of the expansion is finished but the next update will be when i finish designing the new world space. should be in a couple weeks or so. i could give you the current BETA but textures are missing and some things arent 100% finished. for example, my new trader doesnt sell anything, or a couple NPCs dont have complete schedules. But im really looking forward to letting you test this. Just keep your eyes open in this thread for the update. like i said, should be about a week or two. THANK YOU!
