“I remember a while back that one of my modder friends, Wanaming0, needed help making this mask follow the facial expressions of the NPC wearing it,” the modder recalls Neh“Well, I don’t know.”
“At first, there wasn’t any documentation about it,” he continued, “but soon people figured it out and now anyone can easily look up the information. Problem solved.” The modder added that the puzzle’s The solution ended up being: “This is a weird solution, but [somehow] It really works. “

If it weren’t for Neeher, Wanaming0, and countless others in Bethesda Games’ long-standing and huge modding community willing to come together and not only solve weird problems like this, but share their work and experiences, there would be a lot more people sitting in front of their computers The potential creator looks confused. What’s more, the most interesting and impressive modding and modding projects will be on display at C3 – a community-driven showcase event, Will be held on Twitch from February 2nd to 3rd – Might not look as cool as them.
“[It] “It really shows the ingenuity of the community and everyone’s dedication to figuring out how everything works behind the scenes so anyone can make whatever content they dream up,” Neeher said of Fallout 4 and earlier games. Say, if you can do this, think about it, you can do it. Mods such as Fallout: London and Settlements Simulator 2 certainly prove this. “
While the modder is involved in both projects, with the former showcasing more of what it has to offer in a dedicated livestream as part of C3, he plans to use the solo broadcast he will do as part of the event to focus on One specific area of modding that has proven to be his specialty – animation. Nehe’s hope is to encourage more people to be interested in mastering the craft, which he said many consider “the most inaccessible.”
“3D animation sounds difficult or even impossible at first, so people tend to shy away from it, or maybe don’t want to learn more about how to do it,” he explains. “In my time here, I’m going to take a look back at how I got into animation, and why it’s my favorite aspect of modding. Of the various areas of modding, animation is one of the least sought after, and in Some aspects are even mysterious, so I think people will find it interesting how we create the animation and see it in the game.”
This seems to be one of the main factors attracting Bethesda to so many of the biggest names in the game modding world playing a big role at the event, in addition to learning about the larger projects that will be in attendance and what teams are busy preparing. First iteration. “I hope we can inspire and invite new people to this wonderful world,” says the modder Amy “Eleanora” Joncariadding that she looks forward to “the opportunity for people to interact [with] And contact mod authors in new ways for discussions [things in] real time instead of [via] Mod Page Comments”.
“This could potentially lower the barrier to entry for those who want to get into the modding scene as a user or creator, see it happen in real time and talk to experts in the scene,” Junkkari continued. “As a creator, the whole premise of C3 is to encourage collaboration and positive interaction between creators and users, building a friendly community, which is the most important aspect. It has always been [important to] I support, encourage, and uplift others in the community and I hope we can get new people passionate and excited about modding and content sharing [exciting] environment. “
“I personally hope that through events like this, everyone can see how united the entire Bethesda modding community is,” added Dylan “Dylan F1” Fritschimplementation leaders and recruiters Fallout 4: Capital Wasteland. The team behind this massive modding project is dedicated to recreating Fallout 3 in a version of Fallout 4’s Creation Engine, and will be showcasing its improved version of The Pitt DLC at C3.
“I think everyone should be excited about something like this because it’s very rare [see] All these mod teams/projects/creators coming together [for] There’s only one reason,” points out the modder. “My team was contacted by the event organizers a few months ago and we decided it would be a good time to show off our work on the Pete DLC game while also giving [that] Support a great cause like Make-A-Wish. “
Fritch cited an interaction the Fallout 4: Capital Wasteland team had while making the game as an example of the kind of collaboration that, as Neeher mentioned, is truly emblematic of Bethesda’s modding community. A favorite of many members. “We had some difficulties with the dubbing during the production of Pete, so [modder] Kinggath and his Settlers Simulator 2 team sent us some of their voice talent, after [we’d previously] Helped his team launch the SS2 Chapter 3 trailer,” he explained. “It was a great deal and Kinggath and the SS2 team are great people. “
He also noted that many modders are willing to share their expertise openly and make useful knowledge available to those keen to learn about the craft in a way that makes it easily accessible (such as through YouTube), as this is something he “has always done One of my favorite crafts is “Things About Community”.
Overall, the modders involved feel that the C3’s greatest strength is the variety it offers. “possible [about] Showcasing a project that an entire team has been working on for years,” says Nehe, “can be about understanding how game design works behind the scenes. People who want to get into the gaming industry can see how it works.or people who just love [playing Bethesda RPGs can see that] These mod teams and modders are making more content for these games for free. “
“What if you’re playing Skyrim, Fallout 4, or Star Trek on normal and you run out of content? But you love the game and want more. I think you can replay it over and over again It, but the modding community is here to add it in many different ways, from simple weapon mods to full mission mods.”
So whether your passion for Morrowind burns as hot as Red Mountain, you’ve been busy flying around space since last September, or you’re constantly trying to convince your co-workers that Fallout: New Vegas 》is the best since sliced bread (that last one was me), you might want to switch to C3.
Who knows, if you like what you see, maybe in a few years you’ll find a weird workaround that brings a clearly visible smile to a masked NPC’s face.
