I'm not sure I'll be able to keep up with this mod now that my dad's gone, but I really dont want to discourage you all. You are all incredibly talented modders, and I'm glad I met you all. But at this point, I'm not going to be able to lead you. DJ, please dont let this team die, Boe and Quix, you both have incredible talent, and I'm glad you joined me in this venture. I'll do my best to stop by and check on progress as much as possible. But ATM i'm turning power over to DJ. May the Nine watch over you my friends, and may their guidance bear you on better winds than mine.

Operative Posts: 506 Group: Legends Member #3 Joined: Mar 8, 2008	thanks Quix. I'm leaving it up to you three to make sure this project doesn't die. I promise to do my best to check in on you all every day or two.

I promise to do my best to check in on you all every day or two. Well, my first act as new leader of the project is to make Quixote second-in-command, or rather First-Officer because that sounds better 'cause it has "first" in it rather than "second". Also, what that means is I'd like you to be in charge of keeping everything organized-most of what I want to have "first say" in so-to-speak is the plot-line, but then again can't have everything there either since there's several things you're not too flexible about and i respect that so I won't push the matter too much if you're insistent. I'm not sure how much I can do atm for the project but I'll try to do some leader-type stuff every now and then when necessary. Just note I'm back in college now and I'm wanting to be able to actually do the work this time and that may take away from the time I can spend on this and the numerous other things I like to do-especially computer gaming and such 'cause I've got an awesome laptop rig set up for myself now. But basically, I'm handing most everything except status as Numero Uno to Quixote. Just think of it like the story that's going on in the mod, I'm the Emperor but I'm bed-ridden so you're the Imperial Senate and have to more-or-less take charge of things. Also, Sabian I hope you still drop in here now and then and maybe help out a little and such. Sorry about your Dad, too.

I might work on an Icon as well, especially now that I've got Photoshop CS3 I want to try it out on actually making something cool 'cause so far I've only used it for enhancing Photos. Feel free to make your own attempt, though-it'd be nice to have some different options in case mine turns out to totally suck or something. lol

Well, I was thinking of finally upgrading you to Admin, although it's interesting I think I made you a moderator of some time yet you're still in the "Members" group. How'd that happen? Anyway, whipped this little icon thing up-it's a transparent .png file but I've also got the Photoshop source file saved. Note: It can be resized to fit over whichever image it's used on.

Earl of Quests (and, y'know... stuff) Posts: 980 Group: Admins Member #2 Joined: Mar 8, 2008	so i kind of want to pull a little advertising trick, by utilizing our posts at the Bethsoft forums a little wiser. one way we can do that is by not making any announcements or anything until we've got some good official screens to show off. that's why i want us to work on a few isolated exteriors in different areas of Cyrodiil, so we can get some good screenshot setups. then, when they see a post over there, and they're like "oh, yeah, i almost forgot about PC", they'll be rewarded with some nice visuals instead of just a couple of basic, barely fleshed out screenshots and an unnecessary bump. we need to get more folks working on the project, but it's not going to happen until people see something that excites them from our camp. i'll start working on some myself if i can get an answer about what resources we have.

I learned to model in my absence... Here's a couple things I'd suggest doing. One, get Pwin back in here. We need his scripting help. Two, see if you can get PL's help with a couple more creatures, and get him more involved. three, contact TOYB and see if he's willing to finish up those walls for the IC for us. It would be a tremendous help.
