[SOLVED] working link for Katisha's Fancy Threads?

[acatlady]

The link on the main site is sadly 404, and I'm having trouble finding mirrored copies anywhere else.

Also please tell me if you know of any other mods with cool non-vanilla clothes! I already know about Westley's FCOT but I'm always on the lookout for more mods like that.

Edit: found one! alternative download link is here: mw.modhistory.com/download-21-6527

I keep forgetting that ModHistory doesn't show up on search engines. (Doesn't help either that their internal search is completely broken.)

For which game? Canadian Ice made many clothing mods for Morrowind, some were converted to Oblivion. I also recommend the Spicy Fox Armor Replacer for Oblivion, this has feminine, but not "sexy" (no armored bikinis), versions of the default armors.

Ah I meant for Morrowind sorry, that's the only ES game I'm currently playing. My PC is too weak for anything more recent.

Been there, done that. When I first started Morrowind.................. oh gads. The memories. I thought the silt strider was an enemy and my first death was from the villagers defending it................

Well, I got Pemenies Boots of Blinding Speed with a minor caveat. My video card was so slow I couldn't turn around fast enough to deal with a cliff racer before it did me in. So my first few days, weeks, playing the game was all about dashing for help from the locals with a large cloud of cliff racers, rats and the occasional scamp hot on my butt.

Then I tried Oblivion with that card. What a boring game. Took me about a week and many deaths to discover there was more to the game than that prison. Free of that horrible place with the trite forced Hollywood plot I strolled out of a sewer pipe and promptly got stuck in some rocks, saved my game, reloaded - still stuck in the rocks and gave up. A couple of months later I upgraded to the GT250 video card and was AMAZED! The game was actually playable, in 640 x 480 windowed mode, as long as I didn't have to run from or fight anything.

Next in my deranged daring do exploits was I managed to cross the bridge and made it as far as Vindasel. For some demented reason I became convinced I had to kill the Bosmer Umbra inside. It didn't make sense. Why would they make a game where this twerp automatically killed me in one whack? Something had to be broken. I gave up after two or three weeks then a year or so of playing the game I got the quest to plonk that Umbra chick and discovered she was packing the most lethal weapon in the game and auto-healed faster than I could fire arrows. It was about that time I discovered the true fun in Oblivion - picking flowers.

Oh yes. I finally managed to do in Umbra in a several hour hide and go seek battle. I put on her armor and of course couldn't move. Wearing part of her armor and selling the rest I discovered that with my sword skill of around abysmal I couldn't even kill a rat with the sword.

Umbra is a male Orc. I guess you had some mods in there?

I reckon it can be difficult to tell the difference, or simply forget after all this time.

blockhead , wotan : I think sniffles is talking about Umbra in Oblivion, not in Morrowind. The sword is an evil-sounding sentient Stormbringer-knockoff kind of deal that moves from wielder to wielder, and Orc-Umbra took the swords name as his, so I'd assume the next wielder would too. Perhaps Bosmer-Umbra was also once known as the Nerevarine.

Sniffles : oh is that ever a mood. I'm a child of the 90s and my parents were Classic Mac fans - the kind who were using G3s well into the 2010s. We got most of our computers from dumpster diving and whatnot, because that's the kind of guy my dad was. I didn't play Morrowind back then, but I was very into the Wing Commander games... I remember downloading Secret Ops over dialup with NetAnts or such, and being very disappointed that the family Windows machine was barely able to run it.

jgf: ooh thanks! I'll check those out too. Can't have enough groovy outfits.

I re-read Sniffles' post. My mistake: I'm a dope. There was a paragraph on Morrowind and the next paragraph was Oblivion and I didn't notice the transition. Plus I somehow overlooked Umbra when I played Oblivion. D'oh!

Well, restart the game and go get her!

My final victory over Umbra merited a screen shot and serious Photoshop assistance. The dauntless protagonist standing over the body, Blackwood bow in hand. The body riddled with around 15,000 arrows and she is knee deep in empty restore health bottles.
