Furb’s Male Replacers- Basic Robes

June 11, 2018

Sedave’s got to go back to Riften in a couple days for reasons that were frankly incomprehensible… but he said he’d stick around to help out with styling this new outfit we got from RefurbMadness.

… Marcus wants to start with The Hat.

Of course he does.

Yeah.

So remind me why we spend all that time on the hair? And pay for that expensive hair product? Hm?

Marcus says he does not care. It’s in the budget, he says smugly. Oh and he’s keeping it. It’s a great hat.

I told Marcus I was pretty sure he could live under it.

Like a Forsworn hag in a hut.

Or.. See? Marcus can now disguise himself as a mountain. AND he can store his lunch in there. A change of boots. A keg of mead! Wouldn’t Alfgar like that. Or–

What?!

Marcus says we are being assholes.

This is why we don’t get to have nice things.

Look, the whole point to taking these pictures with YOU, pretty boy, is so that people wanna look at you. You’re the eye candy. We’ve got enough pictures of that damn hat, so let’s move on, okay?

Marcus says that nobody gets pretty things unless they are nice.

How soon we forget… Now Sedave is weighing in.

FINE.

We’ll get on with things–

And now we get to the whining about how hot the lights are, and how bright this ENB is, and how long is it till supper, and doesn’t the union booklet say he gets a break now and–

Just get in the damn water already–

-Or I swear to Kyne my next photo shoot is going to involve Falmer clothing and Windhelm.

Or Riften. Yeah, we haven’t been to Riften yet. Sounds like a fine place. And Sedave would like it very much if we went to the Rift, for him that’s just a day trip–

Yeah, fine. You’re right, I shouldn’t make idle threats. Nobody wants to see pictures of Riften.

What? Um…No.

Mermaids are ladies.

Mermen?

Isn’t that what those tedious gentlemen from Balfiera were calling themselves? Yeah, they were going on and on about the Direnni bloodline. Didn’t see any fishtails on them.

Sedave, I don’t wanna get into a philosophical debate–we’re done here. Towels are over there, Marcus. Stop rooting though all the bags. Sheesh.

[New maps for Marcus– diffuse built from Fair Men/Real Men; tattoo assets reworked from Eastern Style Body Art and some open source stuff I’ve lost track of; Vitruvia, Frecklemania and Frecklemania 2. Normal map is probably going to get rebuilt. Spec map is Fair Men with some changes and with the face map edited– and I can see that it still needs more work, hrm. Eyes are also a work in progress, Gearhog and Zhoulia and Eyes of Beauty.]

ENB is an extremely tortured version of Caffeine.

So this is what I’ve been spending all my time at

June 7, 2018

Skyrim SSE is very interesting to mod, and it’s got some quirks. I wanted to see if I could get my characters into it and have them look more-or-less similar. This took a lot more effort than anticipated:

So, the first problem was that Racemenu isn’t ported over yet and i didn’t feel like wrestling around with whatever alpha version of it is floating around out there. So, I grabbed Cyrelian’s head .nif, converted it, and took a look in nifskope. And– exploded hair! I had to make a new head nif without fancy hair.

So this is what I ended up with:

Shrieks of dismay.

I then started working on the things that I could change– skin and hair et cetera– here’s an in-progress shot:

Still kind of terrifying.

Much time and tribulation later, and–

Well, yeah, that’s why people got the remaster… just absolutely beautiful land– Sorry. I keep getting interruptions.

Fine.

All right then.

I’m done giving out warnings to the peanut gallery over here:

Oh, very nice, Marcus. That’s a good look. And you look so happy to see us!

Ahtar says if you start out as an ugly bastard that there’s not much room to go downhill…

eww.

So, after some cursing and re-installing and a lot of fiddling around, I managed to get ONE of the guys looking okay in SSE:

But all in all it was kind of a frustrating experience. And the eyes aren’t right. We’ll see how things go as the mods over there continue to improve.

And of course Ahtar says there are some faces only a mother could love–
