Does that mean your going to make a new site or something?

wow talking about fast reaction
Vaanic~One
Cool, looking forward to it!
Gabbe_master
Will it be linked to this site somehow? or is it a brand new "thingy"?
Dark0ne
It will be using a completely new template and using it's own domain, but it'll be using the forum database.

Each new player profile will create a new thread in a forum that people can discuss. Every player profile will require a forum account which will also be the login information for when you update/edit your character details.

I'm also thinking of having a mod tracking system, to track what mods people have downloaded from TESSource.
Povuholo
so this is the profile thingy you proposed on the boards before? Some ideas were given, which ones are you going to use?
Dark0ne
The different tabs of a player portfolio:

General Information:
  • Player name
  • Level
  • Class
  • Birthsign
  • Short Biography
  • Last Updated
  • Date of Creation



Mods:
  • Mods being used from TESSource
  • Mods downloaded from TESSource
  • Other mods used



Skills:
  • 7 Major Skills and their levels
  • 7 Minor skills and their levels



Factions:
  • Factions joined
  • Rank in the factions



Contact Info:
  • E-mail
  • MSN
  • AIM
  • GS Forum Username
  • Send a PM to this user
  • Official forum username



Biography:
  • User-written biography of any length



Friends:
  • List of friends with links to their profiles



Screenshots:
  • User-uploaded screenshots



A lot of the information (i.e. skills, factions, classes) will be linked to at TESSource where a database will be made of most information.

If you think I've missed anything, let me know.

Very nice. grin.gif I'm looking forward to this! Thanks for taking the time Dark0ne.

Just a couple of things... people will probably want to list their stats: strength, endurance etc.

Oh, and it's 14 minor skills, not 7. ^^ [/smartass]

Will the players have to upload their character, showing their true level and so on that profile, or do they need to fill in the profile themselves (and be able to say your level 100 while your level 3.)

There's no way that the data can be validated so this is purely a recreational thing. If people had to send in screenshots of their stat sheets they could have just used the console to buff-up their character. There's no way of doing it.

Yup, forgot to put that into my database design. Think that'll show in the "General Information" area, now.

FFS...so now there's 7 major skills, and 14 minor skills now. Is that right?

Yes. The 7 major skills affect your leveling, and the 14 minor skills can all be leveled as well but don't affect your level increases. Much like Morrowind. ^^ Every character has access to all 21 skills, you just have to choose which 7 you'll concentrate on.

And wow. I must commend you on one of the most aesthetically pleasing websites I've seen for a while. grin.gif
Dark0ne
I thought Morrowind was...
  • 5 Major (contributed to level)
  • 5 Minor (contributed to level)
  • Miscellaneous

??

Have you seen the latest players on the right nav? laugh.gif
Switch
Oh, true. In this case only the 7 major skills contribute to level. Minor skills are the miscellaneous ones that don't contribute to level.

Oh and haha, very funny. I'm not even going to ask what an Eunuch is. grin.gif

Now we have proof that Dark0ne is cheating - how can you be level 45 when the game isn't even released yet? grin.gif
Dark0ne
Didn't I tell you? I've had the game for over a month now! wink.gif

That's it. Prepare to be killed.

I'm coming to get you! AND your secret copy of the game!

Ok, can you guess what major skills a Ranger will have? As i presume Ranger will replace Scout in this one. A stealthy warrior type is sure going to kick daedra arse and don't forget brew his own potions! grin.gif

Oblivionplayers is a great idea by the way, I'll register soon as its ready and I actually have an oblivion character, well a real one, not the imaginary one in my head right now
