Things Never Quite Go As Planned

A lot has happened with me this year. There have been friend deaths, pet deaths, family in their last weeks, broken hardware, COVID, and on top of that, more work at my day job, so I'm finding time management difficult now.

As part of my job, believe it or not, I need to get some experience as a streamer, too. It'd make...

ALL MODS CAN BE FOUND HERE

In preparation for my server downtime/switch, I've uploaded all my Skyrim mods to my gdrive in a public folder. Any previous mods have been moved, so old links won't work but they're still there.

Announcement

Up until now, I've been trying hard to keep up with 1 mod release per month, minimum, but my day job keeps ramping up, as I mentioned in a previous info post, and I'm finding it hard to keep doing monthly releases of this size, and it leaves me no time to work on the mods I really want to be working on.

For that reason,...

My Server and Blog

Hey folks, just a warning that for the duration of May 2023, my blog and server will be down. I'm going to be taking down the old server and getting a newer, faster, and cheaper one.

When the server comes back, it will have a more direct file serving system, as opposed to a full on blog, since I use Patreon for mod rele...

Life Update

So my day job is finally picking up in earnest, and I'm also about to begin studies for a potential promotion next year, which means my time for modding is going to be cut down.

Rather than not releasing mods at all, this mostly means last month's poll won't matter, sadly. Though somewhere in there I might pop out a ran...

Aether Suite 3.9.3 - Project S.C.A.M.

halofarm post Aether Suite 3.9.3 - Project S.C.A.M. from patreon

First of all, it's not actually a scam, or an early April fools. It's a legitimate update, and that's right, it's even multiple days before the end of the month.

I know. Weird right?

I've been busting my ass on this update since the moment I released the last one, so it's ready to go a little earl...

Aether Suite 3.9.2 - Project Nephthys

halofarm post Aether Suite 3.9.2 - Project Nephthys from patreon

It's that time again! Only a day late. Honestly, it would have been yesterday, but I was in such a rush to release last time, I had some really dumb mistakes. I wanted to give it the time it needed this time.

So there's not a lot to mention, and tons to mention at the same time.

Quick Update

Just a very quick update post to tell you guys what I told my patron Discord yesterday.

I suddenly had an idea a few days ago about what I wanted to do with this AS update. It involved quite a bit more pre-production work for assets than my original plan, so the release might be delayed.

Only by a...

Question for Everyone

Since this one affects everyone, and isn't just to help me choose a minor direction change, I thought I'd put this question out as a public poll.

I'm thinking about the future. Specifically that I don't particularly want to just work constantly on the AS and pose mods month to month. I had some thought on things I could...

Next Update is February

It's not that I don't have time this month, but I'm doing a bunch of under the hood work. I don't really want to make an AS release that mostly looks the same, so I'll merge this month's update into another one next month which will actually have new areas added, and not just mesh or texture overhauls, since I know the new pl...

Aether Suite 3.9.1 - Project Anubis

halofarm post Aether Suite 3.9.1 - Project Anubis from patreon

It's finally here. It's not nearly as big as I'd have liked, but honestly, this AS update has been through so many kinds of hell, and so many personal policy changes that it's a miracle it's here at all. This is the first "official" SE release, too. I might have broken some stuff, but I did a fairly thorough runaround and did...

Merry Christmas!

This is actually another quick update post, but I also wanted to wish everyone a merry Christmas!

So the AS update is done, but I can't release it until either the 28th of Dec at the earliest, or (roughly) the 4th of Jan. Our internet connection is busted, so I only have hotspotting from my prepay cell phone to get onli...

Quick Update

Just wanted to let you folks know that, due to a sudden jump in day job work, I won't be able to finish anything in time for the end of November.

However, the partially completed work from this month will be going into a Christmas Aether Suite update instead. There may also be additional mods f...

Vignettes Omicron

halofarm post Vignettes Omicron from patreon

Well, as it probably obvious, I didn't manage to get any AS stuff done in time, so here's some more Vignettes instead. There's no horror stuff, so don't worry, no opportunities were missed by it dropping today.

The deal with the AS update I've been working on is not only that I lost 6 weeks of work on it, but after work...

Cinema for DAZ Studio

halofarm post Cinema for DAZ Studio from patreon

In the same way I noticed I could dump the red room into DAZ Studio, I also realized I still had the source files for the Cinema I made for the big Vignettes addon, so now I've put that into DAZ as well.

Took all of an hour, and most of that was me forgetting things.

As with the red room, it's just a single prefab...

Red Room for DAZ Studio

halofarm post Red Room for DAZ Studio from patreon

Well, I said 6 months, but it almost seemed a waste to not also release this as a small prefab for DAZ when I already had all the PBR textures sitting right there and the models made.

Literally 1 iray scene set, in a DIM compatible zip file, with all the original png textures.

Vignettes Theta

halofarm post Vignettes Theta from patreon

So after my SSD failed with my projects on it last week, I had to redo this one from scratch, but I managed to get it done by month end through... mostly just doing nothing else with my time until it was done.

The Theta has no meaning. It's just a random Greek letter I decided to add to the end of this mini-Vignettes ep...

Sylkie for DAZ Studio Genesis 8.1

halofarm post Sylkie for DAZ Studio Genesis 8.1 from patreon

And the last one is a character experiment. I'm no hand drawn body texture artist, so the textures are just intelligent use of the tools at my disposal.

However, she comes with a complete set of custom textures, including anatomical elements, a bunch of eye colors, 2 basic skin tones, various lip and face makeup options...

Hostess for DAZ Studio

halofarm post Hostess for DAZ Studio  from patreon

The reason I had a recoverable backup of Hostess the other day is because it was already mostly done as one of my experiments with DAZ, so here it is.

Same features as the Skyrim version. 4 texture types. 4 parts. Also a few different fix morphs to help with body fitting.

Again, the archive is full DIM compliant. ...

Modernicity for DAZ Studio

halofarm post Modernicity for DAZ Studio from patreon

So while I've been doing all this experimenting, I haven't just been experimenting with Skyrim. In fact, the Skyrim versions of these were somewhat "backports" or the experimental versions I created for DAZ. I hadn't originally intended to release the DAZ versions, but I figured that someone might get some use out of them. View Post

Re:Hostess

halofarm post Re:Hostess from patreon

I didn't forget this mod! Except when I did. I had meant to release this on Friday, except Thursday my drive died, and I had to start over from the 50% complete version I had sitting around, but I got it there today.

So as part of the running theme of redoing old mods in much newer, much higher quality, this time I redi...

PSA: My Projects Drive is Dead

There are gonna be some delays. I was trying to catch up using old backups but I thought it was about time I actually announced it, because it's too much work to magically recover.

The project I was working on from last month, I had to go back to a very early version, and it's a big step back.

Modernicity

halofarm post Modernicity from patreon

Well, as you can see, it's only one mod. I didn't lie when I said both the mods were close to completion, but sadly, I'm very close to being in debt, so I've had to take on extra side work that has taken up a lot of my time, and will probably continue to for at least a few months.

HOWEVER, that doesn't mean I don't have...

June Mod 3 - Halo's Poser S - JJBP Edition

Finally, the third mod from June, the last month to have 3 mods, and proving why it was a bad idea. It's not just a regular Halo's Poser update, however.

Starting with this release, every poser I have ever made is included in Halo's Poser S, and the actual new poser module added this time is in fact

More Distractions

Just a few more days of delay. I'll probably release this lingering mod about midweek now.

No worries though. Both of August's mods are actually like 60-70%% done already, so no fears of them getting delayed.

I think when I finally release this last poser, some of you folks are gonna be pretty pleased with the sub...

I did it! I made it. Just barely.

I'll be making a big change to how I handle posers in future, after these releases, so look out for that when I drop that last mod from June still outstanding, next week. Probably next Sunday.

For now, this is a double release. The final update to the FuwaPose series, as well as t...

This is a title

Sorry, I have no idea how to title a random info post!

So due to a sudden flow of work coming in from my day job, I haven't had time to catch up this month. I will still be releasing 2 mods at the end of the month, but not 3. The catch up will be next month instead, since the work will be gone again by then.

Quick Update

So after some patron polls, there are gonna be some changes in how I do things here.

Okay

I apparently exaggerated when the next mod would drop. More like the 10th to the 12th. Sometime around then. I didn't get busy, I just got distracted obsessively playing Raft. It's fun as heck and I sort of forgot I had something else to d...

halofarm post June Mod 2 - Anniversary Poser from patreon

Yes! I managed to get 2/3 of June's mods out actually IN June. There's one more coming, on the 7th of July. I'll be marking that as June, so it won't count towards July's mods. It's just been a busy month for me.

So, Anniversary Poser. As Skyrim passed its 10 year anniversary in November 2021, I passed my 10 year annive...
