Nuka-Cola

So, I did a picture of a nuka-cola bottle a while back and posted it on the blog here. Well I also submitted it to the bethblog fan art email and much to my surprise I found up amongst the other fan art today.

Opnions

While the next guide is well in the works and I'll be publishing it in good time I have a question for everyone who reads this blog.

When it comes to another guide after what I'm working on, I have several ideas but which one I should choose to produce next is a cloudy decision. Read the list below and go here to vote for the one you think I should do.

Fallout Beginners weapon guide
Fallout start guide (what to do once you leave the vault)
Fallout Advanced weapon guide (end game stuff)
Oblivion Vampire cure guide
Oblivion Daedric quests guide
Something else (you specify)

If you think I should do something that's not on the list vote for "something else" and leave a comment here that details what you think would be better.

I look forward to finally getting some real comments on this blog. Though I doubt this will really work.

Spawned

So those of you who watch my guides should know that I focus on two games. Oblivion and Fallout, the latter being what got me started doing videos to at all. Well My first guide ever published that got the ball rolling was my Oblivion Vampire guide. It's still my most watched video today and also the most copied.

One of the things that came to my attention for some odd reason long ago. was how after I published my guide I found one or two blatant low end copies of it. Today there are several vampire videos that HAVE to be somehow spawned off of my original. The things that say this are as follows; First they were all published after my guide. Second every one says to go to the barren cave even though there are MANY other vampire dens in more convenient locations. Finally even though not all of them go so far, there are several that detail the same methods of finding out how you contracted the disease, where to go afterwards, and that you don't have to kill vampires to be infected.

Hell there's even one that spawned off of the most evident copy of my video.

I'm just simply find it amusing that a guide from me a total nobody has spawned knock-offs. I just never thought it possible.

Scripting

Ok so just an update. I've made little progress over the last two weeks because of my job. I haven't had the energy to stay concentrated so I've been avoiding working on any guides till I can focus.

On the flip side though I have been spending some time attempting to build a weapon guide. I'm really talking about stuff that you can grab at the beginning of the game. It's difficult though; Finding weapons that aren't generic models at the game's start is in no way easy. I've got a few ideas though so the possibility isn't lost. Only reason I'm really even trying to start a guide like this is because SO many people keep requesting it. I guess my equipment guide for Oblivion whet a lot of peoples apatites. So it stands to reason you would want a weapon guide for FO3 right?

Anyway I'm a busy guy with a life so bear with me since I dont' release guides that often.

update

I'm making progress I think I've finally pinned down which script I'm going to produce next. I'm about ready to do voice recording and the rest will be a breeze.

Errors and Annotations

Ok, so that guide I published this past weekend about duping is a good example of why I don't push guides out as fast as I can. Already, as of now that short little guide has the most annotations to fill in gaps on info I didn't know about. The reason is because I just pushed out that guide in one day start to finish. It's a good example of what I'm capable of doing and at what speed I can do it at. Yet look at how much more info I discovered just by sitting down and thinking over HOW the glitch seemed to activate. Because I totally skipped the research and cross reference part of writing a guide; I feel that I have published a sub-par video. I don't have any problems with lots of annotations building up over time. However when I have THIS MANY, in not even a week, it's a clear sign that I have not done my job properly.

Apologies, I'll put a proper amount of work into the next guide.

Prodouctive

All I can say is that this past weekend through today my productivity has been though the ROOF!

FO3 Duplication Guide

Ok, so I said that I had some extra time this fourth of July weekend. It turns out that that extra time turned into a mini guide on how to duplicate things in Fallout 3. Hope you like the vid!

extra time

This weekend of July fourth I ended up finding myself with some extra time. So I've gotten some extra stuff done. Luckily for those of you who watch my videos that's a good thing for you.

The Great Return

Well I'm pleased to say that as of today I have been able to get back to work on another project. Around three weeks ago (ever since I published my last video) I've been stuck fulfilling obligations and sorting out personal issues. I'm happy to say that I'm totally through everything and I shouldn't have anything else pop up to deter my work. I'm still in the midst of figuring out which of my scripts I'll use for my next guide though.
As it stands I have several rough scripts that need cross referencing and error checking. So It's not like I'm short on possible candidates for my next guide. Its just picking which one should have priority that's difficult. After that it's the normal process of perfecting the script. Then the true process begins voice recording, video capture, editing, and finally publishing.
Also just so you know putting the guides together isn't that hard what takes me so long is trying my best to prevent errors in the script. I hate doling out erroneous advice.
