About Me

My name's Edd, and I suppose I'll start by saying I love modding Oblivion! I live in Stafford, England, and my main interests include pretty much anything creative, mostly in computer form, such as modding, web design, animation, programming etc, and then theres my non-electrical hobbies such as playing guitar, singing and songwriting and stuff. Once I'm done at college I'm taking a gap year, and then I'll be studying computer games design at university for 5 years.

What I've done

Forgotten Tomb

This was my first Oblivion mod. I didn't want to mod until I'd finished the game so as not to spoil things, so I blitzed the game and then got to work straight away. It was basically a short dungeon/quest mod that introduced a nice story for the player to follow with some new traps and a large area for an end boss. I've had all round good feedback from this, and I'm really happy about it because it's the first internet released mod I've ever done (I modded Morrowind for my own personal joys but didn't feel like anything was worth sharing).

You can download it from TESSource. Screenshots:

What I'm doing

Trap Spells mod

I intended to finish this during my easter break from college, but got sidetracked with various tests for the mod below this one, so I'm thinking I might merge the trap spells in with the mod below. Many thanks to Mrflippy for helping me out with a few seriously irritating scripting problems I came across.

Videos of completed trap spells:

• Conjure Paralysis Crystal
• Conjure Spike Trap
• Conjure Daedric Turret Bugs in this video have since been fixed

Aequitas Isle (working title)

This is a rather large mod that I have just begun. I am actually making this as my Final Major Project for college, which I have 8 weeks to complete in total. What I intend to do with this is to add a new dimension to the game called Aequitas. This dimension is a pretty peaceful place, but has a few secrets. The whole dimension is stable due to a very special crystal, which grants light, water, and life to the entire dimension. Without it, the dimension would become horribly unstable.

I don't want to reveal too much information about the storyline yet, but I basically intend to add a new dimension, a new race, a major storyline, a guild to join, sidequests, easter eggs, voice acting, along with custom meshes and textures.

Testing videos from my easter break:

• Testing Grounds 1
• Testing Grounds 2
• Custom Mesh Test

What I'd like to do

Depending on how well Aequitas Isle goes down, I should finish college a few weeks after that and start my gap year, so although I will be working, I'm tempted to start up a Western TC. The only problem is I don't know yet how do-able this is for the ideas that my head keeps producing. For now I'll stick to what I'm currently working on.

Adios
