I appreciate it. This is frustrating for me because I have been a computer student for nearly 2 years, but am having tons of trouble.

Well, the rest of us are sitting around eating Doritos and flipping through naked screenshots of Alistair, so consider yourself a genius.

Speaking of naked etc., I know I'm slacking in my NB responsibilities, however while the horns are always and everywhere sexy, SurelyForth has helped me see the error of my ways and I realize now that the hotness of the horns must be carefully guarded.  Indiscriminate hornage is bad.

For instance, Flemeth did get the horns.  But she was not getting the naked horns.

And, I've been goofing around trying to set up mushy screenshots.  If people haven't done this, you really need to travel around with just you and Alistair in the party.  At least do it in areas where you're not likely to run into big packs of bandits.  It is :wub: somehow.  I was glad that it was just Alistair and DEF when she met the messenger going to her clan, for instance.  It's just different when you're with your battle posse.  Oh, and that bit about setting his tactics to attack what is attacking you is also sweet.

*rolls eyes*  I have others, but that was the first one on my photobucket page.  I will do better for you in the future, KoP.  :P
And don't taunt me too much, or I will reveal you Alistair love to the world.  Posted Image

I'd say that was just a blatant and nefarious attempt to goad you into posting some pictures of the Warden with her assets unobstructed by any Alistair hands, or other Alistair parts.
... can't really disapprove. Posted Image

Oh, I'm sure it was. ^_^ And I don't mind pics of my Warden with assets unobstructed, but I think the forum might.

That's some really nice editing, Thor! Though I would suggest adding a tint similar to the color of the background, just so there's a sense of "unity" when it comes to the colors. I hope that makes sense; I really don't know how to explain it. xD




So what colors would you use?  My stupid paintshop's being a little stubborn lol

What image editing tool are you using? If you have the PSD file I could touch it up a little for you, just to show you what I mean. *bad with instructions* Dx If you'll allow me, of course.





Go for it if you want. I use psp


Here's the original

Oddly enough this is one scene which probably sort of works better with underwear on, since it then just looks like he's trying to figure out how to pull that damn thing off, and failing miserably Posted Image

I noticed that and it does look like that.  It also looks like he's afraid to touch her.  Sort of like a very strong man who's not experienced enough to know he's not going to break his partner.

cmessaz: Did you try making a new module project (with a different name) and then copying your b2b to that? I'm pretty sure if you didn't purge the database of the original project entries, it won't let you save duplicate resources that have the same name. The fastest way to test that is to make a new project and try to save alistair_main to that. The cleanest way to fix it (if a duplicate naming confict is what the problem is) would be to use a sql manager on the toolset database and remove the offending entries from the original project.

If you really want to see unobstructed assets, then there are much easier and better ways to see them on the net....

jk jk, I am really not that kind of person Posted Image. I wouldn't even know how to turn the safe search off.....

Yeah, it really does work better with the undies on. I just wish there were a smaller bust underwear mod, I'd have no use for the natural bodies mod anymore.

Unless I ever get my toolset working again, BSC doesn't look so great with undies. You know what sucks? I had a version with BSC mild working. Let me see if I exported that alistair_main.

From a purely aestethic aspect, I would do 'Your desire...' on one side and '...is my command' on the other.  Possibly even opposite corners, but that's just getting picky.


Better?

I kind of wanted to run a hypothesis through the pro-Alistair crew about anti-Alistair folks.  I'm worried this is going to sound like I'm putting words in other peoples' mouths.  Albeit ones that are likely not here.  I really just want to think out loud in front of people who usually side with Alistair before I even consider bringing it up with people that don't.  Stop reading if you find this is something that's already been said.

Anywho.

It seems like most people who try to spare Loghain and end up getting angry at Alistair refer to his actions as a childish hissy fit.  Well, he doesn't draw steel.  He doesn't call names.  He does lay out ultimatums.  He's not going to fight next to Loghain, period.  Despite what some people think, the Warden is not the boss of Alistair.  There's no command structure.  He's not betraying a Queen or King.  At that moment, nobody even knows who is in charge yet, it is still being worked out.  Government is in limbo.

I think it is the ultimatums.  People play games often to express fantasies of control, of being in important, and in charge.  Morrigan can minus twelve all she wants, the player can just roll their eyes and buy her something pretty later.  The Landsmeet is one of the few times a companion straight up says, "No."  Which I imagine is like a bucket of cold water in the face.  Most things and characters in the game that say, "No" and don't listen to you get dead real quick.  So players probably ask themselves why the heck is their love interest/best buddy buying a ticket to Murderedville?  This reaction must be overblown.  Somebody is at fault.  It is not me, so it must be them.

One of the few other examples I can think of is when Sten challenges you for leadership, and I know people who've gotten that event and flipped their sauce.  Even though at the end of that, Sten buckles. 

I think a lot of people really hate being told "no" in a computer game.  You might've noticed that guys that REALLY like the Morrigan romance often OBSESS over getting the "right" epilogues, ie feeling her regret through her magic ring, being able to chase after her at the end of Awakenings.  I think it is because they want to veto her "no".  Like suddenly they can make it mean "Yes, I will stay with you, and we can raise our Gozar baby together!"  Dudes, she said no.  I would like to qualify that I'm a HUGE fan of the Morrigan romance.  I sort of think the option to chase her is a little creepy.

I'm suggesting that it comes down to some people not being able to give up control.  Not in a computer game where you're supposed to be the hero who everybody listens to.

I see this weird definition of love getting trotted out by Alistair detractors.  Where if Alistair "truly" loved the Warden, he would never leave.  If I'm understanding this correctly, having a view like that seems unhealthy.  Having "true love" does not mean that you can't crash your heart into a glacier and sink it Titanic-style.  Doing some things, refusing to make certain compromises, crossing specific lines will make a relationship crash and burn.  Sometimes people say no.

Anyway, I'm just bouncing ideas around.  My intention is CERTAINLY not to start another Alistair v. Loghain war again, so I hope that doesn't happen.  Also not to offend people with my conjectures which might sound like my convictions.   I just wanted to throw some things out there.  Go ahead and tell me off if this strikes you as crazy wrong and that I'm definitely projecting things that aren't there.

EDIT-- I really hope you guys don't mind me posting this here, but you were the audience that I wanted feed back from first.

Don't worry, as long as I refrain, that won't happen.

This thread is now about fun and I, Loghain's number 1 fan, proudly say this is one of my favorite threads and I love everyone in it.

So yea, cool post, don't agree with it. Now let's have fun. Posted Image

See, here is what I'm wondering. I was loading a ejoslin's b2b this morning, and the toolset crashed in the middle of it. Now when I reopened the toolset, there was 2, alistair_main, which was checked out, and alistair_main1 which was also checked out. alistair_main1  contained only "root" but it would not let me delete it. So I just uninstalled the whole toolset, like a boob. When I reinstalled it, that is when I could no longer save. I wonder if something somewhere is corrupted, but I'm not sure. I have the error log but it doesn't make sense to me. Actually, other than some custom items, this is my first big project so I'm not very familiar with the way this works.

It's too late at night for me to express anything really coherent, but this seems valid.  Like the fact that a lot of people have "slap Morrigan" mods.  I realize it's fun, and that I'm just constitutionally not able to laugh at a man slapping a woman even in a game.  But it does seem to me to be about someone challenging your status as a little god.  It seems that many people play their PCs as completely badass and without fault.

I see this weird definition of love getting trotted out by Alistair detractors.  Where if Alistair "truly" loved the Warden, he would never leave.  If I'm understanding this correctly, having a view like that seems unhealthy.  Having "true love" does not mean that you can't crash your heart into a glacier and sink it Titanic-style.  Doing some things, refusing to make certain compromises, crossing specific lines will make a relationship crash and burn.  Sometimes people say no.

More often I hear it argued that it was not love that Alistair violates, but duty.  I wouldn't even dispute that really, in that he does abandon the fight against the Blight.

Yeah, just to balance the colors out. And since I didn't edit the post in time, here's another one. Green on the inner edges, purple on the outer edges... if that makes sense. '8D
