#485622 Vampiric Wolves!..

Mega Mod Help
Vampiric wolves seem to have immunity to non-magical weapons only, so any kind of +1 weapon or better should do the trick.
Damaging magic works as well, though if you don't even have a single enchanted weapon yet, you probably don't have enough of that to take down a vamp wolf. You should probably avoid the area until you're stronger.

"Big words are hard right now!"
Edit: The game looks pretty interesting, if they can live up to the hype.
Which no one ever does.
So it's probably going to suck.
Just saying.

Hello.
The Resource Request forum has rules.
You have obviously not read them.
Furthermore, your post is hurting my eyes.
Someone will move it back to resreq if you A, format it properly, and B, look up what punctuation is.

This looks like a mod idea to me.
Anyway, the basic idea of special summons isn't bad. Especially for an actual conjurer like Edwin, having a summon that acts more like a familiar could be fun. Still, I'd prefer something from a... different source in this case.

If this is for personal use, it doesn't go in resource requests.
If it's for a mod, you can at least try to follow the rules.

#503073 ME3 trailer: the alternate soundtrack

Mass Effect Series
I figured I should stop spamming the ME3 news thread with this, so: new topic, because I'm not done beating this dead horse yet OH NO.
The concept is simple: take the ME3 trailer, slap a new soundtrack on it, post it on the internet, INSTANT FAME. Whether serious or hilariously out of place - the trailer goes with absolutely anything you care to imagine.
Here are my original attempts:
Blue Öyster Cult - (Don't Fear) The Reaper - This shouldn't need an explanation.
Marily Manson - This Is the NewShit Shep - I will never let them live this down.
But the fun doesn't stop there! Other people have their own ideas, and some of them are pretty neat.
The B-52's - Rock Lobster - "Mass Effect needs more cowbell!"
Erasure - Always - "A nice counterpoint to all the death and destruction going on."
REM - Shiny Happy People - Because well, why not?
Blind Guardian - Sacred Worlds 1 2
Pokemon theme song - Grunt, I choose you!
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Teaser works ridiculously well, although the opposite doesn't work quite as nicely.
Blue Öyster Cult - Veteran of the Psychic Wars - This also syncs up pretty nicely
Make your own!
There are two easy ways to do this. Tubedubber lets you pick two youtube videos, shows the video from the first one and plays the audio from the second. Youtubedoubler plays two videos side by side, but has an easy box where you can control where the videos start - useful to skip long intros and such, or to match the music more closely with the video.
In either case, the ME3 trailer can be found here (and in many other places, certainly). The possibilities are endless.

Solution 3: install this on top of Dutka, then buy the wand from Gorch instead.

Nothing fancy, just a wand that casts "Dutka's Thief Summoning" 5x/day and "Dutka's Greater Thief Summoning" 2x/day, and I'm pretty sure I managed to get it useable by anyone. Make sure you have Dutka installed first, though, as it uses the resources installed by that mod.

So, you'd like Miranda to wear something a little less stupid, but are tired of Bioware putting dumb crap on characters' faces? So am I
Let's start with the easiest one. Here's Tali, before and after.
Download this file here because the boards don't allow .tpf attachments.
Now, it gets more complicated.
Get these here.
Grunt and Miranda's visors share a resource, so it's not possible to package them separately. However, this resource is not exclusively used by the DLC costumes. It also affects a few other things in the game.
(There may be others, but these are the most noticeable ones.) Unfortunately, there is nothing I can do about that; it's either this or having random rings floating around in front of Miranda and Grunt's faces, and that's... not the purpose of this mod.
Also, I'm not able to remove the actual headgear from Grunt and Miranda. I tried just slapping transparent textures on there, but it resulted in weirdly black models, so let's not do that.
Texmod is needed to use these, instructions are provided under the link.
*Mordin voice* Enjoy. */Mordin voice*

A few notes on stats:
Your adjusted stats are low (71). Even the original stats are still below average (80) and I doubt anyone would accuse you of powergaming if you kept them (and you can just swap DEX and WIS and you have a legal mage->priest dualclass).
I'm usually the first to whine about overpowered NPC ideas, but as nice as it is to see someone take it in the opposite direction, you don't have to go that far. Even if you bump up your current WIS by one point, you'd still only end up with 72 points, and you definitely don't need to reduce them any more than that. (I'm not going to stop you if you want to do it, of course, but anyway.)
As for the class, it's no more complicated to do a necro->cleric dual than a wiz->cleric. It's just a matter of clicking mage->necro rather than mage->generalist in character creation.
- Average stat totals for BG2 characters is 82.5 (83.2 in ToB).
- The lowest stat total is Minsc with 73. (The highest is Keldorn with 89, beaten only by Mr. ToB with 95).
- All characters have at least one stat that is average (10) or worse. (You have this covered.)

"Upon casting this spell the wizard is allowed to choose a spell out of his repertoire of known spells. One spell level for every three levels of the caster is allowed up to 18th level or 6th level spells. Once the spell is chosen the caster is allowed to choose a condition of some kind from the list provided. The starting condition can be anything from reaching 10% of his/her hit points to an enemy being sighted. Once this starting condition is satisfied the spell that was chosen will be cast automatically."
You get one spell, the level of which can not be greater than [caster level]/3 or six, whichever is lower. The spell is functioning as intended.
Chain Contingency (wiz9) offers more options.

How long are you waiting when the game doesn't respond? Because at least for me, ME1 loads extremely slowly, but it functions normally once it actually starts.

It doesn't belong there either. Both resreq and classifieds are for mods in progress, not personal stuff. Even if it had been a request for help with a mod, it doesn't follow the proper format for either of those forums.
I'm willing to consider it a "mod idea" (barely), so I'm moving it there.

According to executive producer Casey Hudson, Overlord is the "biggest downloadable content pack yet" for Mass Effect 2. Available in June for 560 points (£4.60, $7), it adds in five new uncharted worlds, amounting to a fully voiced, self-contained episode that can be played either before or after completion of the game proper.

So, what, you're saying you'll never replay the game?
ME2 has no hidden saves. Any save that has End Game State:LivedToFightAgain can be imported for a second cycle, and this is most likely what ME3 will go off as well.
Don't expect DLC misions to have any effect beyond *maybe* an email, anyway.
