I am a massive fan of morrowind and would love to help. But after reading on the forum what is going on I am not sure where to start so I made a list:
What sdk tools are you using?
Any videos explaining how to start?
Will my SQl skills be helpful?
Will my c# or java skills be helpful?
ok thanks for this mod please tell me what to do and how to do it and I will get it done.
To be honest the most useful tool at the moment, I guess, would be the Elder Scrolls Creation Kit.
At the moment there are a few things going on with regards to that, the biggest at the moment being (as far as I know):
1. NPC converting: http://morroblivion.com/forums/conversion-to-skyrim/conversion-to-skyrim/2483
2. Quest converting: http://morroblivion.com/forums/skywind/skywind-development/2762
Personally, I don't know where the programming skills will come in handy, but I'll bet you anything that they definitely WILL be wanted for one task or another.
I'm not 100% clued up because I have no real modding or programming skills, I just like to lurk and put in my two-cents occasionally.
EDIT: Holy BAJEEZUS how many times did I type "moment"? Not editing it out, kinda funny.
Join the Skype group! Sorrow probably pmed ya it.
Looks like I got lots of reading to do and some playing around with the creation kit. thanks guys I hope I can help.
Good luck, and I hope you find something that you are good at to do. :)
welcome,I'm a java/sql
welcome,
I'm a java/sql engineer as well so I know that it won't really help for the scripting itself. Although having a programmer mindset definitely helps, I guess ;)
The script language for skyrim is papyrus. I suggest you check the official wiki http://www.creationkit.com/ , the official forums http://forums.bethsoft.com/forum/184-the-creation-kit/ and Skyrim Nexus has forums that can help for technical questions.
(although please don't mention morroblivion or skywind on any of these sites)
If you know c++, there's a link on the homepage of this very website.
There are three main parts of this projet : the converter (that created the skeleton of the master), the conversion of assets (models, textures, etc..) and the generation of content (master doesn't not have all the content, eg. I'm implementing the quests, which were not converted).
hope this helps.
