At the dawn of Nexus Mods Collections

Last updated on December 17th, 2023 at 12:40 am

To start off with, I generally have nothing against the upcoming collections feature which can be quite handy when you make a fresh start. That the Nexus is holding a gun to authors’ heads is the only thing that bothers me. If the mod authors don’t comply with the recent changes of Nexus rules they have a grace period to remove all their files using a certain form. After 5 August, it’s no longer possible for mod authors to delete the mods by themselves and the files … Read more

F4: Sam’s Synth Evolution

Last updated on May 21st, 2024 at 03:44 pm

My character Sam was a human once. As he advanced in the Institute quest line, his longing to become a Synth grew. One day, his wish came true.

It all began with “iSynth 2.5 – Android Customization”. But I wasn’t satisfied with his look, still too much flesh.

So I modified the textures of the mod and it was not the last time I modified them

I also played a lot with the body meshes of iSynth and … Read more

Enjoying the architecture, bizarre discoveries and taking a break

Finally, he found the Brotherhood of Steel, helped them to solve some problems and they took him to … Read more

F4: Sam’s Adventures – the beginning

Last updated on August 17th, 2023 at 03:32 am

Accorcing to the article “Entering the realm of Fallout 4” I tell you the story of my character Sam. He lived a peaceful life together with his wife Nora and his son Shaun.

Notice: some images have lower resolutions because I needed to degrade the resolution from time to time when the performance was very bad on my old PC (mostly in towns). Gladly, this changed with the new computer.

Then the apocalypse came and nothing was where it used to be.

Big spoiler:… Read more

Entering the realm of Fallout 4

Last updated on August 17th, 2023 at 03:33 am

I’m playing Fallout 4 since June 2019, at the beginning on my 9 year old computer, and later on my new computer which I bought at the end of July. In the middle of August, I got sciatica, so that I couldn’t play for some weeks. The pain isn’t gone entirely. I stopped doing my practices as I catched a serious cold this month. I’m feeling reasonably well again now and will continue my practices this weekend.

Regarding the game, I’m siding with the Institute and realized after reading too much … Read more

Selene’s Shadow Realm uses SSL now!

SSL stands for Secure Sockets Layer and establishes encrypted connections (https protocol) between the server of my site and your browser. The padlock symbol on the left site of your address bar shows you that the connection is safe.

After I bought the SSL option, I needed to adjust some links which I missed and deactivate a plugin that interfered with the https protocol. The developer tools of the browser where quite helpful to find the mixed content that still uses the unencrypted http protocol.

Using the https protocol is not only secure but can also have a positive effect … Read more

Security breach in “WP GDPR Compliance” opens doors for hackers

Last updated on August 17th, 2023 at 03:09 am

If you are a WordPress user as well and use an older version of the plugin, then there is a high risk that your site will be hacked. I experienced this myself and I write this little article to warn you. Please update “WP GDPR Compliance” to the recent version (as a site note: the same applies to WooCommerce).

But if your site has already been hacked because of this security breach:

Go to your WordPress database via PhpMyAdmin (or similar)

I’m still alive

Last updated on February 24th, 2023 at 02:36 am

Real life always gets me. I’ve got a new ~~apprenticeship~~ (Edit: I confused internship with apprenticeship; I meant internship) at a little publishing house which is really nice. If I have enough motivation for my private projects, it would put the cherry on the cake. But some “personal difficulties” let the flow dry in the last couple of months. We all have crosses to bear.

But I know when I have enough breaks from the private projects, I have enough energy to continue the work on them until they are done. … Read more

The Abyss Demon project in the course of years (2009 – 2018)

Last updated on December 17th, 2023 at 03:28 am

aka “The many faces of Azareth”

Azareth was the first Abyss Demon character and his face has changed a lot during the development process of my Abyss Demon mod.

2009

In November 2009, it began with the idea of making a race out of World of Warcraft’s Illidan; a race with big horns, wings and greenish tattoos. The horns were really large at first and the black wings a placeholder. Shortly after that the horns got smaller and the wings a new shape with a color … Read more

The translation project

Last updated on April 15th, 2024 at 08:30 pm

The “translation project” is a series of mods which will finally get their English translation.

While I was rebuilding my website I noticed that some of my older mods haven’t got their English translation yet. That’s why I started the “translation project”.
