Wait, who the fuck is modding brands in?

[–] Snowpix@lemmy.ca 25 points 1 month ago

Milk-drinkers and the Thalmor, probably. Damn elves.

Ive seen some truck sim players mod in brands. It can be immersive

What kind of noob doesn’t even have the Thomas the Tank Engine/Pregnant Sonic/nude Sims mod installed from the start? Like what are you even doing?

[–] krooklochurm@lemmy.ca 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Wait wait wait.

Pregnant sonic?

What does the pregnant sonic mod do? What game is for? This sounds fucking idiotic. I need to know more

[–] Thunderbird4@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

To be perfectly honest, I don’t know of a specific pregnant Sonic mod and I’d rather not search for one. Pregnant Sonic just a common kink (I’ll let you google that for yourself) in the wide, wide world of Sonic fanfic that often finds itself lambasted alongside the more tongue-in-cheek degenerate humor like Shrek and Thomas the Tank Engine mods.

Is that a McDonald's in front of Saint Michel's Mount? That's where I draw the line. Come on Master Chief, let's get outta here.

a severe lack of ENB shaders

I am literally in day 7 of slowly adding and testing mods for Skyrim and I haven't even begun patching or run Loot yet. Pray for me.

[–] MonkderVierte@lemmy.zip 4 points 1 month ago

There was this one that made Wabbajack randomly convert the target to a bunch of gold/cupcackes/a chicken/angry dremora/atronarch. It was hilarious. Is it still around?

My Brother in Talos, have you been introduced to the words of S.T.E.P?

https://stepmodifications.org/wiki/

Or even more dangerously, Lexy’s LOTD?

https://lexyslotd.com/

I will pray for you.

[–] MonkderVierte@lemmy.zip 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Lexy's LOTD is a set of over 1,500 modifications.

Well now.

[–] brucethemoose@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

It's an amazing guide. Or at least it was years ago when I tried it.

[–] StopSpazzing@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Cant it just be automated? Started reading it and was like this sounds dumb to manually do.

[–] brucethemoose@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

Yeah. With Wabbajack or natively. Theoretically.

I think some issues are:

  • A lot of Nexus modders have weird possessive licenses, eg "you have to manually download my mod, you can't use my mod with X mod," and so on.

  • Some mods need manual fixes (though Wabbajack should be able to do most of this).

  • There are a lot of external tools as part of the setup.

  • Lexy seems to be an "oldschool" modder. They seem wholy untinterested in trying to automate it. It's ultimately their time to spend on the pack.

Last I checked, some folks have tried to automate the installation, but I have no idea what progress has been made, and it seems Lexy's page is still full manual.

...But if you're manual mod picking anyway, and interested in learning modding in depth, it's quite a guide to follow. It’s been built and refined over like a decade.

[–] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 2 points 3 weeks ago

honestly mods with insane licenses like that should just be left to die, they are a blight upon video games as a whole.

[–] Deconceptualist@leminal.space 3 points 1 month ago

Pff, no Cyberpunk flying cars mod? For shame.

Would still play though.
