Why the rush to kill the vampires? Is there something super big going on after that or we're going to go back to drinking tea and eating food? laugh.gif
Elisabeth Hollow
Well Kayla anticipates getting laid XD plus, I'm off and can actually post.
Darkness Eternal
How tremendously . . . desperate laugh.gif
Elisabeth Hollow
It's been three years for her XD
Not many men look at her and want to sleep with her.

Hey, should we make a separate thread when we leave to kill vamps?

nono.gif

Unless Grits says otherwise. It'd be better to post, for example.

Aravi, Vampire lair.

Darkness Eternal
Also. I understand Kayla is in a hurry to get into some dude's pants and Aravi . . . well, she's got her own things to do. So how about we skip ahead to the cavern? Instead of waiting to post the whole armoring up to leave?

Trust me, I also want to end this, too. But I am also eager to get posting.
Grits
A general remark unrelated to the cave: Let's assume that the tiresome details like paying bills, turning in keys, and reserving rooms have been handled. Of course write them for your character if you like, but don't wait for a staff member post about it.

King Coin
I'm fine with skipping to the cave as soon as we wrap things up in the Goblet.

How big of a nest do we want to take on? I'd say 12 feral vamps at most and I know DE expressed interest in controlling a master vampire or something. I'm fine with that.

Do we want to have zombies and skeletons too, or just have vampires?

I've cleared Black Rock Caverns with everyone already, but just to make it official, We're Going Here

And I'm suggesting a different thread for the Cave just to keep this from cluttering up the Goblet. The Goblet is the social RP, not a fighting RP.

Good point, KC.

Also there’s the time issue. We’re using the real date to keep time moving in the tavern. With separate threads we won’t get bogged down if the adventures move slower.

Twelve sounds good to me, and one master. I'm feeling pretty outclassed here, considering Kayla is the only non-wolf in the group, but a few zombies and skeletons won't be an issue. Maybe each of our characters gets three apiece, and we take turns taking shots at the master. I don't want one person taking all the glory.

The way I'm playing Aravi is that she doesn't have any benefit from the wolf thing except for the disease immunity. She's not embracing it like Lycus and Vera are, so I'm sure it affects them differently.
Darkness Eternal
Sounds good. We're having a few skeletons, too. No zombies.

Also, I'll just have Lycus reconsider and have Vera go with you guys. That way we won't have an overkill. I know, she can be a bit nasty but that's just the first impression. You'll get to like her. Sorry if it was just meant to be Kayla and Aravi but when hunting is involved, Vera simply must oblige.
Grits
I added some details to the staff and regulars entries on the info page. smile.gif
mALX

Guilty explanation:


I was having trouble making the listed staff, that many NPC's in one building would have dropped the FPS's down to single digits.

So I started out making the ones we would deal with most as described, but ended up with issues there too. Not sure why the Bosmer Ostler crashed the CS, but he did. As soon as I removed him the mod stabilized again.

I've used Eyja and Vinja in every mod with NPC's I've ever made, they are second nature for me - so I planned originally just to set them up in there and get them working, then change their names and races to match the staff list.

Well, by the time I got everything working, I just couldn't do it. I was kind of afraid to mess with all that hard work and end up causing the whole thing to crash around my ears.

If anyone wants to, they can go into the mod in the CS and change the names/races of the 5 NPC's to any Grits listed in those jobs - try it if you want to and let us know if it creates any problems - I really don't know if causes issues or not, but was afraid to find out.

I'm afraid it may break their references and they could stop working their AI packages, etc. It was just too much risk to take after all that work.

What I was thinking to make up the difference is that I can write Eyja's parts in the RP as a customer who makes her income by hustling customers for armor/weapons repairs in the daytime (and possibly hustling them for paid favors at night).


Grits
mALX, that sounds great! smile.gif
Darkness Eternal
Bump.
mALX


Has anyone found the two hidden treasures in the Wobbly Goblet Inn mod yet?
Grits
mALX, I have not found my game disc yet. I need to toss The Boy's room. I suspect he has it. kvleft.gif

Vampire hunters, you can have Nora come in and talk to you if you like. She knows where Irvana said she was attacked.

I want to hear if anyone finds them, lol. (and what people think of the Inn).


King Coin
Sorry mALX, but like I told you earlier I'm having a very difficult time creating Aravi in Oblivion again.
Elisabeth Hollow
I wanna see if my brother will install it on his computer. he got a gaming laptop and has Oblivion on it.
Darkness Eternal
mALX, you have done a wonderfully amazing job here! Kudos to you! The mod looks great and I sure enjoyed the videos!

The only problem I have is that I don't have Oblivion for the PC sad.gif

Doesn't mean I can't still admire, though.

In regards to the RP itself, wouldn't it be wise to time skip to the new location in the new thread so we wouldn't have to waste anymore time? We want that social aspect of the RP, right? Lets do battle, get it done, and come back! smile.gif
Grits
OK, I'll do a staff post at the end of the weekend to move the inn's time along. Do you vampire hunters plan to return to the inn after the adventure? When your cave thread splits off you can always bring your characters back to the inn before your cave adventure actually finishes. That way your characters won't get stalled in the cave time-wise. Isn't Kayla's birthday at the end of the summer? I'd hate for her to miss her party. tongue.gif
King Coin
Aravi's coming back. She has some unfinished business with Abiene.
Elisabeth Hollow
Hahaha! Yeah, it is. Twenty fifth of Last Seed lol

We need to plan it first! We only know how many enemies and what kinds right now. I haven't really thought much about how they are going to be distributed and how organized they will be yet. If you have ideas, do share.

I bet she has indeed! Interesting to see how it'll play out.

Most will be sleeping. So unless Kayla or Aravi are the type of girls to slit an enemie's throat as they rest, we can have them wake up with the barks and snarls of wolves which vamps typically keep as pets, perhaps to guard the lair as they sleep.

As for organized, they will be led by a single patriarch. A man who turned some of them, and placed himself as a leader. They follow him but they're not as organized as a deadly group. Overall they're unstable and suffer from bloodlust. Like the ones from the quest "Information At a Price."
King Coin
Sounds good to me.

I'm fine either way, Aravi would prefer to sneak, but I'd understand if everyone else would like to go in with a more exciting fight.

What do you think Elisabeth?

Just wanted to let everyone know that I'm following - with delight - this tavern RP!

Although focused on other BuffStuff at the moment, I'm sure Buffy will, at some point, pop in for a goblet. IPB Image


In fact..I am following too....and since Serene also appears in Oblivion (Cyrodiil) now..she just might accompany Buffy to the Inn for a drink or two! tongue.gif

GAAAAH! You have to see the Awesome sign Ghastley made for the Inn, I will get it into the mod and upload the mod again with the sign (and Eyja's bed dropped to the floor/fire oriented, etc) - asap!


Here is the screen Ghastley sent me of his sign:

I love it!!

I have some time tomorrow morning blocked out for getting my password, etc issues together so I'll be ready to download. Then I'm going to waterboard gently ask my sweet son where my game is. smile.gif

WOO HOOO!!


Jerric and Darnand have already staked out their parts of the players suite from watching the video. (Darnand: There is my desk. Jerric: I get the big bed.) tongue.gif

Awesome doesn't begin to describe it. Thank you so much, guys!

I just found the problem with the voice files, and I've PM'ed mALX with a fixed install. Once it's checked out, and she's fixed the errors I made fixing hers, there should be a new version to download pretty soon.

Two things, a missing space in the folder name, and the bit-rate of the .mp3's. The first fixed finding the lip-sync files, so she was mouthing the right words. Then I looked at the mp3 properties and twigged what was wrong.

King Coin
Bit rate would have stumped me. Then again, I'd probably use .wav since that's what Bethsoft products prefer.

I won't get to check it out till my husband goes to bed and my dogs are fed, but I def will (and it is already uploaded, for anyone who wants to beat me to it and check it out!)

I can't thank you enough Ghastley! You are absolutely AWESOME!

ROFL !!! Looks like Eyja's body has improved, ever since my last complete re-install of Oblivion and all mods - all the nudes in my game look really off, both male and female. Not sure what the issue is, I may need to do another complete reinstall.

Ooh, Silus looks drunk! I'd love to know how you got that working, he and Baurus hit their mugs frequently but I have yet to get their "Drunk" or "Drunk Dancing" idles working, lol.



Grits
Got it! Now I need to find the fetching game disc. panic.gif
Darkness Eternal
What happened to the other Rpers?
Grits
Abiene is waiting outside to farewell the fighters. I think Saquira's Dunmer left, and Mustard's Breton is... asleep on the bar?

That shot of her waiting outside could be a postcard for the Inn it is such a perfect shot! thank you so much for uploading those screens, and for endorsing the mod !!!! You ROCK !!!!
