See with me being heterosexual and all, I never watched Twilight, but if you say it's like Underworld I might just have to give it a try.

I believe only the second one contains any werewolves, the first one is some vampire sausage fest to see who is the hardest.

Hahahahaha, seriously, there's no comparison.
Underworld is cool and sexy and visceral and the main protagonist is sophisticated and her actress studied Russian.
Twilight is porn for underaged girls.
Twilight is like a bodice-ripper harlequin romance novel, except for girls.

Welcome to another episode of modding with Adrius... let's add some to that list...
Skyrim Flora Overhaul + Lush Trees = Win.
Realistic Water Textures + Kerplunk + Sounds of Nature - Water = Win.
Also, Alternate Sun Glare is a very nice alternative to Sunglare V3. Realistic Smoke and Embers is made of win as well.

If you still play 1.1 I would advise against using any grass mods because in certain places the grass looks so **** up you could pretend you just entered an oblivion gate

Why are you still using that? The major problems of 1.2 have been fixed.

Also, here's a trailer for the Creation Kit. Looks nice enough, although the Steamworkshop's instant installation will undoubtly lead to kiddos downloading over 9000 mods and screwing up their game beyond belief, and then Steam support will be drowning in mails and calls ^^
Steam Workshop intregration seems seamless and problem free to the Nexus devoted part of the community though. Me like.

Creation Kit is scheduled for Tuesday.
Also, Bethesda said that they will throw in a surprise for us.
People have checked the Steam Content Description and found that it is very like an official High-Res texture pack for Skyrim.

***MIGHT CONTAIN MINOR SPOILERS***
So I just fought Alduin for the first time together with my friend Parthurnaxx. Full Deadra/Dragonbone Legendary stuff with amulets and rings with 100 enchanting worth of resistance enchatments on them, dualwielding two Daedra waraxes. Needless to say (obsessed with maxing out my gear as I am) everything was enchanted/forged while I was maxed out on potion/enchatment buffs. So I walked into the fight pretty confidently.
And he R-R-R-R-RAAAAAAPED me!! Like it wasnt even close! He ANIHILATED ME! 1 breath attack would literally instagib me if he got the whole thing off(I have been upgrading health a lot too!! Lvl 40 atm). I managed to defeat him somehow putting the difficulty down to Expert (playing on Master, my pride was so hurt T_T) and blowing all my health potions but seriously wtf?! In the end I had to juke arround and use Whirlwinddash thing to get into a blind spot when he was charging his breath attack. Failed miserably often enough though since shouts take half an eternity to recharge (etheral,FUSRODAAAAAAAH and sprint were my rescue spells).
Any idea what I did wrong lol? I mean I would equip my resistance stuff and drink the potions but if I have 120% fire resist he will just blast me with ice breath to which I only have 40% due to potions and what not and he will SODOMIZE poor Azadrius. Holy **** any tips on how I could have played that better?
*Note I am playing with the Deadly Dragons mod on Hard, not sure if that affects our friend Alduin too.

**** dude... I mean the mod is awesome! I have really cool fights with "normal" dragons but mother****er a triple hp and 1.5 dmg Alduin might be a tiny bit too much lol. Considering how he is already the overlord endboss of the game (ATLEAST AS FAR AS I KNOW! DONT TELL ME ANYTHING!) damn my pride... will never allow me to uninstall that mod LOL. Better not turn in to hardcore lol.
Seriously though that was demoralizing lol. Im feeling all heroesque like a badass in my "I AM YOUR DOOM" Armor and he takes a giant dragon turd on my face lol. With JUST ONE breath attack T_T. Just feels kinda retarded since its not like I was sloopy in my preparation! I have all the resistances and stuff. But it didnt help lol.
I now begin to understand why they included the insanely op Dragonslayer armor... I might just forge myself one just for you Alduin.
Didnt want to get any of that at first since well, its retardedly op and I can handle the "normal" dragons just fine with me "regular" pimped out max gear. But holy **** Alduin man... damn.
