Free Sabre Cat Mount Mod by M7

Sabre Cat Mod



M7 2014.

DESCRIPTION
I re-skinned an existing Horse to make this Ride-able Sabre Cat Mount. The cat is found lying on a bridge near Whiterun City. It will lower itself for you to mount, you then mount an invisible horse (and WAIT) and then onto the cat itself. From there you can ride it - no jumping though.

Merry Christmas!

Fixing Screen Resolution For Laptop in Skyrim CK

How to Fix the Screen Resolution on Windows 7 for Skyrim Creation Kit:

There are some Players who cannot see the bottom portion of the screen using a lap top computer, as with "Packages" or "Dialogue" in the Skyrim Creation Kit. 

1.  If you have a spare Monitor from a Desk Top PC, connect the Monitor plug (Blue) from the back of the PC and into the side of the Laptop (separate from an adaptor plug).

2.  Right click on the lap top PC screen (windows 7) and select Screen Resolution.

3.  On Display: select "1. Mobile PC Display - 1366 x 768 (recommended)" & "2. Display device on VGA - 1280 x 1024 (recommended)."  Orientation: Landscape. Multiple Displays: Extend these displays.

4. Select Okay and Keep.

5.  When in the Creation Kit, under "Packages" - move the Packages window to the far right of the lap top screen until it appears on the spare Monitor screen, then edit it from there.  This also works with Dialogue. Also you can use TAB key to scroll through the buttons until you reach OKAY button. 

I hope this helps.

Neterworld Mod

http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=346066382

Neterworld Mod by M7.



Neterworld Skyrim Mod by M7, Version 1.0 (this uses all 3 DLC):

From Ancient Egyptian Mythology there was a place called the Neterworld, where the dead souls visited in the afterlife.  This Modification adds several Cities and other monuments to Skyrim, but first you must visit the College of Winterhold and find the trapdoor in the Arcanaeum leading to the Neterworld Player House.  Use the Magic Book on the table in the far back of the room. Then enter Neterworld from the ladder, and you will find a large area of land surrounded by walls.  There is a possible Player Home in the Fields of Reeds, but first you must find all 7 Parts of the dismembered Osiris in order to receive a key.  Each part is found scattered all across the Neterworld as indicated on a Cheat List that is purchased near the entrance of the Fields of Reeds.  

Features:

Apu City – A City with farms and working mines, General Store, & Town Hall.
Antes Fort – Complete with Guards in custom uniforms.
New Amenta – First Player Home (temporary).
Camp Anubis – A Part of Osiris is found here.
Giza Pyramids.
The Great Pyramid.
The Great Sphinx.
Bubastis – home of the Temple of Bast (Cat Goddess).
Lake Victoria – Source of the Neterworld Nile River.
The Fields of Reeds – A possible Player Home with its own temple, mines, farms, etc.
Temple of Amun-Ra – contains the Tomb of Osiris.

Bugs:

Mostly I noticed graphics errors like missing land textures.  If you fall into one you will land on a landscape not water; entering buildings sometimes fixes this.  Also some rooms may have “grass” in them occasionally, this also fixes itself.  Horses and people tend to levitate sometimes, due to Navmesh issues, which is fixable by riding the horse or moving the people. The exterior (world space) has some Navmesh, though I don’t recommend using a companion or follower here (there is no need to bring anyone yet).

Parts of Osiris are in Closed Reed Baskets.

Why DLC causes CTD on Skyrim Mods.

If you experience the Skyrim game to CTD while using all or some DLC, the reason is because both or all DLC use the same files, causing errors. 

(Downloadable Content = DLC -- Hearthfire, Dawnguard, Dragonborn).

Skyrim Character development

http://hubpages.com/hub/Hot-to-Turn-Your-Skyrim-Character-into-a-Follower

 http://hubpages.com/hub/better-looking-characters

M7 2014.

Start a new game, design a new character (face) and when done go to Console command (~) and press SPF (SavePCFace) and the Character name (SPF + space + Name) to export the face to the Data Folder. Make certain it is spelled correctly. Then exit game.

Create a new NPC.  Add Unique and Essential, with a Voice (for marriage NPC followers find one that matches)from VoicesFollowerAll form list.  Disposition above 75.  Set level (etc.).  Factions: (-1) CurrentFollowerFaction and PotentialFollowerFaction (0).   PotentialMarriageFaction (0).  Relationship = Ally.  AI = Aggression (not anything higher) and Foolhardy (won't flee).  Set Morality to Any Crime.  SAVE MOD.  Import character appearance. Character Gen Parts tab = Import Tab - find character image file and select it (name.npc).  Once you've imported your follower, click OK to save your work then select them in the Object window and press Ctrl + F4 to export their face settings. If you try to export your character's face and nothing happens, make sure that the Is CharGen Face Preset box is unchecked.  SAVE.

I will try this to see if the above advice works.  (wish me luck!).

Future Mod projects

Since the most recent Skyrim Mod I created  -- Cyrodiil the Imperial City (On Steam Workshop) -- several people became interested in asking me to design mods for them.  One was for a mod based on a popular fantasy novel by an author; another asked me to assist the Skyblivion Project (I declined).  And one was from a "legally blind" (JPC)  Musician in Florida (who is into SCA related period genre), whom I am currently designing - something - for, despite headaches from staring at the screen for 5-8 hours per day + insomnia (he wanted me because of quality work + fast results). 

It's nice to step away from the game and help others, rather than write endless novels.

Imperial City Mod Update...

http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=269005916

I am "almost done" working on the Imperial City Mod - though by saying "done" does not infer future work.  I have other work to do outside of computer games this summer.  For the moment, I have most of the structure finished - the re-textured exterior, the arrangement of buildings, some NPC people/citizens, the Arena, the White-Gold Tower (with Skyrim texture), and other items.

Cyrodiil The Imperial City - Mod by M7...

http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=269005916

I am working on a replica of the Ancient Imperial City of Cyrodiil using Skyrim Game.

I subdivided the 7 regions using Interior Cells and connected them with walls and gates.  So Market District, Arena District, Elven District, Arboretum, Talos Plaza, Temple District connect to Palace District.  The Palace doubles as a Player Home using the Skyhaven template, also with Arcane University (tower).  I started this project (all by myself) on June 8, 2014.  It is not a part of Skyblivion or Beyond Skyrim Mods.  I am using the Oblivion game guide as my key.  This Mod uses Dragonborn DLC.
