Truth be told, I lacked a living community, when the community dried up I looked elsewhere. I been playing a lot of Skyrim lately for instance but I want my classics back, and improved upon. There are so much that can still be done, right now I am playing DS2 with a cat mansion mod and, nice but it needs a lot of more work for immersion.

Cat mansion aside, are there anyone into replacing the ancient character models with new ones around? I was done in for Morrowind after all, I would not touch that game without the better bodies mod installed.

Great to see you back Niceguy!

I too would like to see better character models in DS2 and the Cat Mansion characters are just the DS1 models converted to work in DS2 as the enhanced engine still supports the old models from DS1, which is why we could make the old DS1 monsters work in DS2 as well.

Making new character models is a lot harder than in Morrowind, which is why there's been none. Theorectically you can use GMax to import new models into SiegeMax and maybe export them for use in DS1 or DS2 but I've not been able to get it work. The models show up fine in SiegeMax but the exporting them fails with an error every time.

Here's one site with gmax models and there's free models around if you look hard enough
