First, I want to thank everyone for being so helpful over the last couple of months, while I've been working on using toolset animations to take stills to illustrate a story that I'm working on. I've also been making 'missing scene' pictures for the amusement of those on the Alistair thread, and made an album for those and a few other pictures. None of these are the actual illustrations that I've been working on, because that would be spoilering my own work before it's posted--a bad idea. The 'toolset scenes' part gives the idea of what I've been doing, though.

Some of the pictures are better than others, as I only figured out how to turn on effects in the cutscenes very recently. Oh, toolset....

Once I'm done with the story and illustrations, I'll have to think about making a real mod, huh?

NICE JOB! How did you make the stills? Any tutorials where you can point me?

Thanks, much appreciated! We'd already talked by the time I saw this, but I'll just say that it's really quite good practice for everything to do with the toolset.  You need to be able to make mods, use lighting, create creatures, animate cutscenes, and if you want to do things that we don't see in game, make new levels and areas.

Best way to start is with the basic tutorials at the DA builder wiki, and then just start making scenes by moving your actors around with Animations. I also give them approriate speaking lines to get nuanced expressions.

Edit:, oh, and to take your picture, maximize the toolset, drag any other bindows but the one showing your camera view out of the way, drag the timeline out of sight, then hit print screen and pastit into photoshop where you can resize to your preference.

Edit2: You'll probably have to increase your graphics cards anitaliasing level for the toolset to avoid jaggies on some objects.
