The Elder Scrolls

The sign of a good Bethesda game is what the moding community does with it years out. For example look at Morrowind and Tamriel rebuilt then look at Starfield and Fallout 4's nothing. If the modding community does nothing with Oblivion remastered, why wouldn't I just stick with the og?
To be fair, Fallout 4 got London and it still has massive projects on the way, like Miami and Cascadia. Problem with this game in particular is that the engine simply cannot handle what the modders have in mind. Take it from someone who modded London, you can't even mod the game properly without doing some ass-backwards exploits with the GECK since the the mod introduces too much assets for the program to load. You have to quite literally lobotomize the initial Fallout 4 install so that everything loads properly, obviously you have to keep the original Fallout 4 ESM on hand as well when you actually want to play, and it's just a mess. I spoke with one of the Miami leads and they're having the same problem, likely why work on it is going so slowly, I assume every other major Fallout 4 overhaul project has the same problem, without workarounds/exploits/new software it is impossible to take Fallout 4 modding any further.
Starfield, on the other hand, is a piece of shit, and modding becoming an even bigger pain the ass all but ensures it will never get projects of this autistic scope made for it.
 
I give up on searching for that channel, but before I did I did find this big booba AI voiced Oblivion video
This released 3 months ago, not only does this look better than the demaster you have to pay 60$ for but the combat here almost looks enjoyable. You would have to seriously unfuck the level scaling, but if you could re-balance the game you could theoretically have actually engaging melee combat in Oblivion, something I never thought I would see.
I can't stress this enough, there is little the demaster actually brings to the table when you can find stuff like this on even the most cursory search. Wake me up when you can actually get something impressive done with only the demaster that you can't mod into the original game, shiny graphics don't count and graphic whores are the lowest caste of cattle in the world of gaming.

Edit: Still not what I am looking for, but here is something to consider: Settlement Building in Morrowind



Obviously this wasn't directly backport from Fallout 4, but it's amazing something like this is still possible in a 20+ year old game.

While I cannot find the channel name at this time, I do remember some things about it's content. Let me know if you know whom I am talking about:
*Proof of concept channel, everything done on vanilla Morrowind to prove a point. No OpenMW or anything like that
*Ported over models and textures from later Bethesda games, like armored vehicles from Fallout 4 or doors and various buildings from Skyrim. Everything looked like it was supposed to, except for lighting issues at times
*Entire areas backported, like certain maps from Capital Wasteland in Fallout 3(similarly to a video I linked last page). One I remember is an area in Downtown DC since it had skyscrapers
*Animations backported, for example doors from Skyrim had the exact same sound and opening/closing animation like in Skyrim
*Items with scripts attached either had scripts directly ported over or re-created to be as close to the source game as possible. This was shown off likely to point out that you can go beyond what the original engine was supposed to be capable of and introduce mechanics that would be seen in later games
*At least one video with assets from Fallout 76, which is around the time I watched these videos(late 2010s/early 2020s)
*Content creator might be Russian or Slavic in origin. Porting over, or backporting assets is less taboo in these countries
*Definitely was linked on 4chan, I remember seeing his videos linked in either Fallout General or Elder Scrolls General

That content is likely lost to time, but maybe someone else watched his videos at some point.

Maybe they wouldn't be so uppity if you stopped calling them niggercattle for not treating every active decision in their lives as an activism moment.
If they acted like sensible people in the first place I wouldn't call them niggercattle. You think people call blacks niggers because they're well educated? Fine example you set for your kind, boy.
>treating every active decision in their lives as an activism moment
Not being retarded is activism? Gee whiz. If anything niggercattle treat every moment like an "activism moment" more than anyone else.

May Allah forgive me for using this accursed meme. Remember this moment when you shit on someone else for liking what you don't like (because you're lying if you said you never judged someone based off their interests before), but people without standards tend to not believe in anything they say either.
I don't like this game, but besides the "type 1, type 2" body types in the character creator, how's oblivion woke? I've only played it for 3 hours.
Oh I mostly meant generally. That being said being ok with any, and I mean any, amount of this propaganda is the start of the slope. Just make sure if you're ok with the basic shit you're not ok with anything further.
I have no clue what needs to happen to remove the current cabal of talentless idiots who run the show.
Run a cabal of talented intellectuals, then make a game that won't cause your cabal to go bankrupt in case it fails, keep going until you score. If you do score you must then treat your company like a fucking ethnostate. No pajeets, no niggers, no chinks, no stocks, no one above you.
I align with your political views doesn't mean I participate in your retarded boycotts that don't fucking work
>Thinking people not buying something is a movement
What did I just say about you Niggercattle nignogcadillacs? You negrobovine?
if you want to play nothing and be miserable
(Boy I'm putting shift+period to work today)
>Not buying the newest slop means you're going to be miserable and not play anything
The clock works.
one thing flips me out.

Someone hasn't read the thread for why people are complaining.
This is the best Elder Scrolls related announcement all week since 2006!
FIFY.

I honestly cant wait until insane asylums and water tight legal jargon of what men and women are biologically and legally defined as obvious so all these ugly retarded tranny faggots can fuck off a tall building. Nexus mods needs a serious purge of the moderation team if it ever changes owners. Should Jewshua Moon make a kiwifarms version of nexus mods? That would be hella based and another source of income im sure.
Nexus has the YouTube problem where it's impossible to replace because of the back catalogue of content and the inbuilt audience. There are alternatives as well as Gunetwork, but they don't get nearly the amount of traffic for mod authors to post their work on those sites instead of Nexus.

The drama over collections was enough to get some authors to delete their mods from the site but a lot of them moved to Discord.

But 99% of the people who use Nexus don't care about the sites moderation. As long as they have Vortex and their skimpy coom mods they could care less what happens on the site.

How dare you not like what I like. I thought you were my N'wah since you are a MHTri appreciator I will only promise that I will not look for you when the inevitable battlefield between the Old Guard and Slopenjoyers reaches critical mass.

i partially agree with you but GUNetwork is entirely different than nexus, forums in general are way too disconnected to nexus where they ask for you to create a account to download the mod, if other sites start on that page they can run against nexus especially if people start uploading nexus version of mods in there and the site isn't absolute cancer to browse like modrinth or moddrop are, granted tools like wabbajack also give support to them but you need a good infrastructure and with cuckflare dominating the place, might take a while for someone to show up, unlike youtube which is a entirely different can of worms nowadays with the kids shit.

New Vegas is also a 32bit application, but after every install you patch the exe with the famous 4GB Patch. Everyone who mods Bethesda games knows this and it was mandatory even for the original Skyrim. Heavily modded Oblivion playthroughs are still possible.

I'm taking away your n'wah pass because of your poor financial decisions. Only n'wahs do that.
If only you can pin posts like dicksword. Probably the only good thing about that shit, and only when used for not retarded, gay shit.
 
Some Tranny who looks like John Carmack's brother in drag who works at Vice said:
Right-Wing Gamers Are Trying to Mod Out This Feature - They think a less inclusive design decision would actually improve sales.

Nobody makes Rightoids look cooler than trannies and leftoids. Less inclusivity, aka exclusivity, always drives up sales. Ask Nike about their Jordans or Supreme about every bullshit item they sell.

Incidentally, chudcel games seem to reach mainstream appeal way more than faggot commie ones. Schedule 1 is everything Dustborn wanted to be.
Can you imagine leftoids if Dustborn reached that kind of success?
Can you imagine Concord on par in active players with Counter-Strike?
Lol of course you can't; no one wanted to play as Big Bertha or Blue Mexican Michellin Man as opposed to rushing B and screaming laced profanity and slurs at your teammates & opponents in CS.

The 4GB patch slows the bleeding, but doesn't stop it. It will still crash, just with 1GB more of headroom than it had before. At high resolutions, it's inevitable. With mods, doubly so.
 
This isn't what I was looking for, but proof of concept: Fallout 4 and every other Bethesda game in-between running in Morrowind
Totally not the same engine
Still, now I'm autistically hellbent to find that channel even more as I dig into this rabbithole.
Speaking of which, if someone is running the demaster for whatever reason, here is a neat mod I found
No more level scaled gear, from everyone's favorite train obsessed tripfag

I assume everyone these days can find a youtube video on how to set up Oblivion and mods on a modern machine. If not, they deserve to waste 60$ on an inferior product.

Edit: FINALLY found the content creator I was looking for
Sadly, it looks like his more recent videos are running OpenMW(why wouldn't he?) but I am pretty sure his older videos didn't use it. Really amazing autism on display here. Looks like he even backported Morrowblivion back into Morrowind, the madman.
So, my original point still stands: Yes, the engine is pretty much the same all the way from Morrowind to Fallout 4, if you can easily port/backport assets AND recreate features of later iterations into Morrowind. I will only argue that Starfield brought any real innovation within the engine, and still it's "too little too late" and definitely not enough improvements to make the game's core concepts work.

I mostly mentioned Gunetwork because it does have mods that are exclusive to the site. I don't know if it's still the case but you used to have to be manually approved by the staff to be permitted to download the mods posted there.

Nexus does require an account to download mods. Modrinth isn't so bad and I prefer it over something like CurseForge.

The one idea I had was for something like AdSense, where page ads have a revenue split with the site and the mod author.

There's no actual fix for this. There's a Band-aid for an arterial spurt. The 4GB patch makes the executable Large Address Aware, meaning you can use 4GB instead of 3GB like it previously could. It doesn't magically make the executable capable of going past that. It will crash eventually. And mods make it worse because they use memory, and not fairy dust, to stay resident.
Then there's the 60fps issue. It's partially addressed by hacks, but not completely. Anything above 60fps (especially if you go above 120) has retarded consequences.
>well, just play at 60, then!
But I don't want to. This isn't 2006. I'm not on a 60Hz LCD anymore.
