Tempus Maledictum: Version 7 Progression Log (Patreon)

I'm bad at keeping up with the modding blog, apparently. Anyway, let's talk about Tempus.

I've been working pretty hard. Lots of big removals, which I'm sure I'll catch some grief about. But a lot of big additions and updates as well. The biggest new stuff is probably the update for Legacy of the Dragonborn v6, the additions of Spellforge and Gods & Worship, and the removals of some quest mods I wasn't overly fond of playing. But I think this should streamline the game a good bit more without sacrificing anything you'll miss terribly.

Spellforge has really been a lot of work. Trying to dictate exactly which spells should be craftable is a massive undertaking. Some stuff (like Vigilant's summon spells, for example) are specific to the mod, so they'll be excluded from Spellforge. Forgotten Magic Redone will also be excluded, since they would be far too powerful to get them through Spellforge. The leveled lists for FMR have also been completely reworked by me, so the vendors will have randomized spell tomes based on your level instead of simply dumping every tome in vendor inventories at all times. That took some time but it works nicely.

I've also added some new followers. Redcap, for example, is someone that people have been asking for ever since Xelzaz was added (who I still haven't personally used...). I also added Orpheus. I played with him for an hour or two. He's different. Seems interesting. Should be cool.

Some work has also been done in regards to our SPID add-ons. This should hopefully fix some issues in regards to armors no longer spawning on enemies that can be displayed in the museum, as well as fixing some of the unaggressive Dragon Priest behavior. Fun fact: that seemed largely due to the Odin Spells for NPCs SPID add-on, which added a bunch of summons to the Dragon Priest. But the Dragon Priests are pretty bad at targeting nearby ground, and were often too low on mana to cast those spells, so they'd just keep trying and failing to cast. They seem more active in combat since I removed their entries from that.

Another big thing people have asked for is the ability to adopt more than two children. You can have up to six now. I never much cared for the family aspect of Skyrim, so I think I only did it when Hearthfire first released on Xbox 360. Some quick testing showed a few issues, but they're minor enough to be ignored (such as playing Tag with your kids will only play the game with two kids instead of all your kids, since I assume the quest script only expects you to have a maximum of two children).

There's still some issues, though. I seem to be having some sort of crash involving Keyword Item Distributor and some guard armors. Dodging also doesn't work in first person, for some reason. Haven't really looked into that yet though. LODs are not done. Some interior cells need some work. I need to look into that whole Crossbows-Break-Crosshairs thing as well. But still, I feel I'm making pretty good progress so far.

Attached below is a changelog-in-progress. This list is NOT yet updated, and this changelog is NOT a 100% confirmed or finished list of all the changes that are happening. I wrote a lot of this like 4 months ago, then started working on it again fairly recently, so it's even entirely possible some things in this list are already gone. I also know I've updated a lot more things than what's listed here and simply failed to write them in my notes, but such is life.
