    i give it one or two months for the script extender. then it will blow up. [assuming that the new tools don't have one built in.]

    they wont miss that date, they had it marked early for a reason, and pete hines and todd howard have stated several times that its WAAY on schedule. should go gold some time soon..if not already. yeah i think im gonna use a pad for this one as well for at least one playthrough, it just seems like its made for it this time. i have my ps3 afterglow working -finally- i say don't get the xbox version IF YOU CAN HELP IT. though if your not interested in mods or have to play from your couch or something then i understand why you might want to get the console version.

    some reports from the various expos show more than 3 levels of detection, but the manual only shows 3.

    also wondering if anyone here has any experience working with tes? do you think climbing could be implemented...in a limited way probably, but you think its possible? i have seen a few attempts on youtube, but nothing that gave me hope for anything substantial or useful like mantling in this mod.
  6. ok, the manual leaked today and it revealed some interesting information that im sure some here will be interested in. one, there are 3 levels of ai detection , calm, suspicious, and alert. its effected by light, line of sight, and sound. also the type of weapon you have out, what kind of armor you are wearing, and i think encumberance...not sure about that part though. arrows/traps? can be used to make noise and distract ai, causing them to be suspicious. [another note, detection levels play a part in your stealth damage. with daggers in your undetected state you do 15x damage, which probably triggers one of the finishers since its most likely an instant kill.] crime is the same as in oblivion, basicly if your caught pickpocketing/lockpicking/shoplifing you will "pay the court a fine or serve your sentence!" or "YOU SHOULD HAVE PAYED THE FINE!" one last thing that remains to be seen is weather npc react to missing items [if they didnt see you steal it obviously], what the hell those traps are and some other things that i can no longer remember because im tired all that's missing from this is climbing, sneaking blunt knockouts, and a way to put out those pesky lights [ just found out lights CAN be doused in the environment] I really hope there is an unconcious state , and moving bodys is easier than it was in oblivion, so knocking a guard out and draging him into a stable would be awesome ...wakes up 30 min later "where the hell am i" im just leaving the building XD
  7. looks like everyones running it fine now? ill try again tomorrow morning. keep up the awesome work. ( yay, im a member now XD)
  8. oh, and the new file works just fine..dont know what you did but the masks look great. i even followed them to the stairs to make sure everything was ok. very nice now.
  9. ok, did that. still the same thing. it doesnt bother me much at all really, i just thought you should know. ill reload and try again.
  10. lol, don't sweat it. this is better tech support than im usually treated with. glad to see you actively participating in your own beta and no i did not :/ thanks. ill try that now.
  11. i have re installed it a few ways now. i still have the issue. may just be me though. i like what i see though, great job.
  12. i see black boxes on peoples heads...thats not normal is it?
  13. lol..right, like that wasn't a total exploit :/ not suggesting anything game breaking not anything that will get in the way of any existing, or soon to be, game mechanics. and nexuiz is a great example but i was thinking more along the lines of smashball combined with wind waker. or something else..its a grappling hook, i think we know what it does. just keep it in the context of the situation. say you have to use it twice during a mission.. a hammerite fortress has only two viable entrances into the complex. one is up and above the walls, one is through a sewer entrance down by the moat. provided you have the hook already you can scale the walls, but if not you can go through the tunnel below. the tunnel provides you with an obstacle, there is a deep cavern with a rope bridge, the rope bridge is out and there is seemingly no way across. a quick search will reveal that there are materials to mend the bridge nearby. one of which is -duh- a rope and hook. so now you have the means to traverse the cavern...if you can. the cavern requires balls because the window of success is slim, but the rewards for getting across are substantial enough to warrant a try. how i imagine the swinging to work would be this, you need something to catch your hook on like vines or tree roots, a metal grate might work, and certain other objects would do nicely, i leave that to your imagination. if your a chicken you can go back out to the exterior of the fortress, a massive 50 foot wall with seemingly no way in but the obvious front door, you spy up on the ramparts a few weak spots that look good, you aim, toss and it catches, you begin the climb the same way you would if it were a rope arrow, only this can hold your weight a lot better so you can swing side to side while your climbing. climbing up a wall means you are going to be making a bit of noise, so you should watch the ramparts for torches and stay still if a guard is above you. [just an example] keep in mind this is just my 2 cents, stupid suggested feature in some opinions i guess . i know you guys are going to have substantially more creative freedom soon and a lot less hurdles to improving and expanding the mod. that doesnt mean that anything and everything is possible of course, and i know the technical hurdles you face already.
