My First Skyrim Mod Released

Yep, a campsite called Waterfall Ridge. Its tradition to always make a camp. And I'm going to build another... I just feel like it. This time it will be a little more than basic, but still more so than a real house. It will be one of those big fur tents up in the snow near Helgen. It will have everything Waterfall Ridge has, plus wood cutting and leather working. I haven't decided on much else as it will just come to me as I work.

Creation Kit soon! The anticipation is killing me...

The latest news from the Bethesda Forums:

We really appreciate the feedback from our Steam Beta. We anticipate the 1.4 update going live next week for all on the PC and being sent to the console manufacturers. The Creation Kit won’t be far behind.

Using saves we’ve collected from the community, we’re really seeing some great results with the 1.4 update. Thanks to everyone!

Info on the Beta Patch 1.4 can be found on the Bethblog.

Good Stuff For Skyrim

Today Bethesda released Patch 1.3, check the details at the Bethesda Blog.

Also released today, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Tweak Guide by Koroush Ghazi. Get Skyrim looking and running great! I've been using Koroush's guides since Morrowind and they have always done me well.

In more personal news, I've been reorganizing my website. It was getting too cluttered with all the mods for all the games listed on the first page. Too much to look at all at once. I'm not quite done yet, but everything should still be accessible.

Skyrim update

We get Skyrim patch 1.2 on Wednesday 11/30/11, but no date on the Creation Kit.

"The Creation Kit is not being released this week. Once we have more information on its release, we’ll let everyone know."

Well, poop!

Edit: Gstaff just posted on BGS the Creation Kit will be out in January 2012.

Pre-Launch Update

Skyrim is out in less than two days! I'm debating on going to midnight release or waiting until Friday morning. We'll see, either way Friday work is closed! Play all day!

The other news, I had surgery last month. It was unexpected. I was in the hospital for two weeks. They took out 6 inches of my large intestine and 3 inches of my small intestine. Then later developed 2 abscesses in my pelvis. Now its a little over a month later and I'm feeling a lot better. Doctors say I have a bit more healing to do over the next couple months, but I'm up and back at work. And able to play Skyrim! I count that as good news. :)

My mod Guild Benefits is still on hold. Of course I couldn't work on it while in the hospital or during my recovery. I'm going to take some time to play "you know what" before I pick it back up again. I do plan on finishing GB. Just like I plan on going back to beat Oblivion, SI, & KOTN. I had planned to do all of that in October, but my body betrayed me. Things are getting better so I'm not upset, I'm doing pretty well considering.

Also, do expect some sort of campsite type mod for Skyrim soon after I get my hands on the Creation Kit. Gotta have a home base for starting characters.
