    The Elegant Vests mod is pretty fitting for a pirate character.

    You could just kill the pirates at the waterfront and take their gear.

    Looks like it's part of that spell mod.

    Not sure if the music is a part of the spell though. If so, that can probably be removed without too much hassle in the CS.

    Edit: ahahaha, oh man, it even has smoke effects

    LttP, I know, but someone really needs to do a Michael Jackson one. You know, like that old game Moonwalker. Activate super special spell, all the enemies around you dance to Smooth Criminal, and then die. Epicly awesome.

    How's about a spell that summons a bunch of zombies dancing like they do in Thriller?

    I can't believe it wasn't included in SI, summoning a bunch of Zombies that defeats your enemies by the power of dance would be right up Sheogoraths alley.

    That's my one complaint about SI to be honest.

    For something set on the Isle of Madness it wasn't all that insane. There should have been utter chaos in there. Like going through the portal and suddenly your playing Far Cry type of thing.

    Chaos doesn't equal madness. To a mad person everything he does makes total sense. In his mind, it's all ordered up and clinking along nicely. Since the Isles are pretty much Sheogorath's 'mindscpape' thingy, I don't think the place should have been totally chaotic.

    I'm a little tempted every time I see this thread...I think I will, for better or for worse, end up buying it. Is there any reason not to download it using the webnet? Or is the interblag version alright?

    The thing that bugs me is how badly I screwed up playing last time. I keep on forgetting that cheating in a single-player game destroys the entire purpose of playing the game. When I wanted to do the DB quests (not for the first time, I'm not that bad) on a character, I used the console command to skip to quest loc. For every single one. I was a goddamn idiot.

    I thought this was ok, but then I found myself using tgm to go through an Amazon area just to see what OOO added, and using it again to carry things that were otherwise too heavy.

    I keep screwing up! Agh.

    It helps when you don't memorize all console commands. :?

    And seriously, nothing is as awarding as walking from location to location, fuck those horses, hiking's where it's at. :D

    I only memorized the one to make filled grand soul gems because I hate the recharge mechanics...my packrat nature forced me to never use items at all.

    I tried walking everywhere, and while I saw some beautiful things, it took very, very long. Also, I am not a big fan of random, useless dungeons...it's not even that I don't like having a purpose, but the idea of entering a place and, odds are, getting absolutely no reward or upgrade for my Mage character didn't appeal to me so much. It still didn't piss me off as much as the endlessly repetitive and painfully boring Oblivion gates, but still....

    I keep hearing all these awesome things about SI, like (minor spoilers)
    A quest where you watch and screw with adventurers in a dungeon?!
    and it sounds awesome. The only thing I don't know is, do you guys recommend finishing up things in Cyrodiil with my new char, or heading directly to the Plane of Madness? Also. Do I need to buy an in-store copy, or are they pretty good with D2D support?

    I don't know if this has been posted but I found a link where you can download the mod. There's information on it here (the download link on that page doesn't work), and you can download it here.

    The witch is in her basement and she won't come out, I've got only 1 option according to gamefaqs and that is to make enough of a mess in her house so she comes storming out to beat me up. The idea is that she will calm down before I am dead on the floor

    I never said it was THAT bad. I just said that I don't like it, and I prefer ye olde enchantment system to charges.

    Internet elitism FTW, amirite? Seriously, I could go up to someone running vanilla and start criticising them on all they're missing out on, but I don't. Mods let you play the game how you want to, and I don't want to deal with micromanaging an ancient, powerful artifact and its ten uses. Not to be a dick, but don't get on my case for playing the game I want to.

    Also, calm and charm spells. If the quest is seriously bugged, you can just look for a mod that gives you vampirism cure potions.

    Weren't there console options to summon an NPC to you? Would that work when someone is trapped in a basement one metre below you?

    You can try "movetoqt" which will place you at whatever your current quest target is. I think there are NPC summon commands, but you have to be careful if it's actually summoning the quest character or just a copy.

    Given all the time I've put into this game though I feel like I've had enough. The fun is running out and my character is getting really powerful (even with OOO)

    You can type "player.additem 000977E4 1" (without the quotes) in the console to add a Cure for Vampirism potion to your inventory. The "1" at the end is the amount of the item added so you can change that to whatever if you want more potions.
