I like the idea that a player can use/lose/break or sell quest items without knowing it, so what if it breaks the plot? I have never played the main plot anyway so in my case it would not matter, I would not even know if the main plot is broken. You can play the game quite well without Fargoths ring...

I think even pawnbrokers will sell your items after a long time, basically you are borrowing gold from them with an item as security, once the interest owed on the item approaches the value of the item they are liable to sell it to recover their loss, and you will lose disposition as well.

The mods I mentioned were to see what might be available and give ideas to improve on, sort of brainstorming ideas that almost work now. LCV could work with the script error fixed and there may be a few bugs already fixed that affected it, I will be retesting in 0.36. Faking real life for NPC's shou...

Several of the features you talk about have been implemented in mods, which might give you some ideas of the possibilities currently available and the posy 1.0 engine plans will only make life more interesting.

I must admit initially I had a similar problem between the two, I thought at the time they might be placeholder names until the right one was decided on. As time has goner on I have got used to the current names though I still do not like them. The suggestion of 'objects'/'instances' seems good to m...

Agreeing with everything posted above but I can see this serving to get people writing mods, not necessarily to make a fortune, or even a living from, but to get the mod they want for free. With the wealth of mods already circulating for free there are plenty of examples to look at and learn from, a...
