(To confuse Objective)

If you'd like to cheat at creativity, I have a model of a combat knife that I made in Blender once upon a time. It can be your steel dagger or something, since I don't own Skyrim on PC.

(Wait, why is everyone suddenly using Descan's avatar?)

So I was messing around with blender. I made a black cylinder with no lighting whatsoever and replaced a weapon model with it. Now I feel uncreative.

Naw, that sounds like a sphere of annihilation in rod form. Make it so it permanently paralyses enemies and applies 100% chameleon, or just out right deletes from the world what you whack.

I haven't played Skyrim, but this Honest Trailer has me pretty well informed, I assume: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rjTOF8IC528#t=230

[NullForceOmega]

Yes, that is an acurate portrayal of the game.
On a different note, I would kill to possess the skill of some modders in modeling and scripting, then I could make a completely awesome but utterly out-of-place mod about Guymelefs (large magic mecha, also known as dragon armor).

1. learn to model
2. learn to script

[NullForceOmega]

Yes, that's the default answer to the problem, but I just don't get scripting, I can handle HTML, RAWS, and other very simple operations, but I have never been able to wrap my head around more complex functions.  I can't even perform Java operations more complex than 'hello world', and modeling?  Forget it, I have nerve damage to my hands, I can barely hold a spoon to feed my ten month-old son.  As much as I would love to make the mod, and even have the barest inkling of how I'd like to go about it, I just haven't been able to make the adjustment to my thought process that is needed to 'do' scripting and coding.

[Putnam]

Java's a really, really bad language to try learning on. It's not a scripting language, for one, and it's probably one of the ugliest languages I've ever seen.

[NullForceOmega]

I can't successfully script or code in anything other than HTML and RAWS, I've tried Python, LUA, and even made an extremely abortive attempt at C++, but nothing I do works.  I am dead certain that the problem is in my head, but I can't even see where I go wrong, I just get lost and frustrated.

Thank you for the link, I'm not opposed to giving it another go. If my past performance is an indicator, I won't make it far though (gods, I feel so damn defeatist even saying that, it galls me to no end to fail at something over and over again).

[Putnam]

I'm mostly just insisting because I can't stand defeatism

[alexandertnt]

it's probably one of the ugliest languages I've ever seen.

Really? You haven't seen A←P⍋L↓, FORTRAN (particularly OO style Fortran), Actual C++<not_just_C<in_a_C++_compiler>> or (((((((L))IS)))P))?

I learnt how to code using brainfuck, which despite the name is a very simple and easy language to grasp.
[/sarcasm]

Anyway, yeah. Brainfuck.

You should try Malbolge. Cryptoanalysis, ho!
