Kesta Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 Missing Totem Puzzle Pillars by MadCat221 Nexus Link One of my (numerous... too numerous) coup de cœur which I find very underrated. This add new Pillar for the puzzles in the nordic ruins to add to the variety seen. There is several "totems" seen on other nordic engraving such as Dragon Claw doors, but only a handful of them are used as pillars. This mod "fix" that. Especially interesting once you know every puzzle from the game because you've done them hundreds of times, this add a little bit of surprise. First time with it in bleakfall barrows I was like "Ok, Fish - Snake - Snake, usual business" and one second later "whaaaaaaat the hell is that butterfree doing in there ? oO" Load Order priority : Put it as high as possible to prevent conflict with mods editing Cell record directly. It only replace a handful of references, should have 0 hard conflicts with any known mod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neovalen Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 The only negative I found with this mod is texture mismatch on the carvings since no one has given the unused icons the hd treatment. Other than that though, it's a good mod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadriss Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 I like the concept, certainly... I'll have to throw this one in to the Load Order. Any requirement for new game or the like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kesta Posted March 24, 2016 Author Share Posted March 24, 2016 Not sure, but since pillars have persistent linked references, it's possible that Cells already loaded won't be affected. Need confirmation on this though, the pillars not being persistent by themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Octopuss Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Does anyone know why there are some chinese(?) characters on most of Madcat's images? It's confusing as hell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kesta Posted March 24, 2016 Author Share Posted March 24, 2016 (edited) Does anyone know why there are some chinese(?) characters on most of Madcat's images? It's confusing as hell.You should try playing the game sometimes instead of just hanging around forums ^^ Just for precision : There is a quest where you're asked to delve into an ancient nordic ruin in search of an ancient stone tablet that may, or may not, actually be there.When you arrive at the end of the dungeon, there is kind of a wall "chanting" with inscription in draconic language (Skyrim is about the return of dragon, disappeared for centuries). Those inscriptions are found everywhere in the game where something is related to dragons/shouts. After further advancing in the game, you'll find several of those "word wall", that will teach you words of power, in draconic language. You can then "unlock" them with dragon souls, to use them as shout. Note that to find dragon's souls, you'll need to first find dragons. Those will only appear after an other quest that's the direct sequel to the one mentioned above. Inscriptions on madcat's images are into this draconic language, called DovahZul. The legend has it that he's offering cookies to those who can decifer their meaning. Or is it just his sticky on its mod page that say this ? Idk, no one ready sticky anyway right ?

Octopuss Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 (edited) I never paid attention to those runes, so excuse me for not being able to tell the difference from some asian writings.Also I have no idea what sticky are you talking about. There is none.(and I don't read Nexus forums/comments anyway - it's mostly toxic like reddit and largely a waste of time. I only read description pages /most of the time/) Edited March 24, 2016 by Octopuss Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
