Skyshards

Greetings, Adventurer, and thank you for stopping by!

Curious as to what Skyshards is all about? Well then, let's begin shall we?

This mod was born out of the desire to bring about the Skyshard hunting experience that The Elder Scrolls Online brought us.



Never played ESO before? No problem! This mod adds 108 Skyshards, which are objects containing a magical essence that can be absorbed, throughout the 9 holds, with lore-friendly hints via a full-fledged quest system. After 3 (configurable) Skyshards are absorbed, you will gain 1 (configurable) perk point that you can invest as you please.

In ESO the Skyshards would emit a beacon of light as well as emit a specific sound, making finding them somewhat trivial if you had a keen eye/sense of hearing. So with the help from developer videos as a reference, I had new sounds created, along with adding Skyshard beacons based off of in-game assets.

Skyshards now emit an ambience sound when you are near them which increases in volume as you get closer, allowing you to pinpoint them accurately with sound alone. Custom Sound Output Models allow for fine-tuning of the audio to ensure a perfect experience for headphones and standard speakers.

The Skyshards and their beacons (if enabled) are dynamically affected by light so you will get a varied and exciting experience each and every time, based on the time of day as well as the weather and several other factors.

Furthermore, thanks to pointers from DSAMG - Dragon Soul Absorb More Glorious, I have implemented an animation sequence that plays when you absorb a Skyshard, much like the original from ESO.

The result? Hopefully a rather epic Skyshard experience, similar to the original from ESO! But don't take my word for it, see for yourself from the videos above.
