The Nexus game entry for it is based on the copy that's only available through Steam, which is fundamentally different from the standalone version that was distributed before that. It requires the game to be owned and installed via Steam before you can use it because it will literally take you installed game and switch all of the folders out for their setup instead. Not at all like how Enderal works on Steam. What this means is that mods written to work in the original Nehrim setup won't work at all with the Steam version. The Steam version no longer has an Oblivion.esm file which means any efforts to port mods over are going to require a lot of work, and for sufficiently large project might not even be feasible.

Theoretically it's 16 million forms per file, but you'll never be able to practically hit that limit in any file because it would consume so much memory it would be ridiculous.

Given the fact that Oblivion went past its deadline I'd say it's likely whoever was working on this thing disabled it because they couldn't make it work right. It may have been forgotten later on but time pressure is definitely the most logical reason someone cut it off. I also wouldn't advise ripping it out of the files either. It's doing no harm as-is right now so there's no risk in leaving it alone.

Typically when Bethesda sets an intentionally out of range quest stage like that it's because they're doing it to easily disable it from running. There may be a problem with the idle animations or it may have been something they were working on but didn't have time to pass through QA. You could test it by setting the stage check to match the actual stage where he's supposed to run that while the player fights the other knights and see what happens.

I've seen both Outbreak and Contagion and IMO we're nowhere near the danger presented in either of those movies. Not by a long shot. As for the virus being a man-made bioweapon, that's not exactly far fetched. It's know they were experimenting with it to see what made it tick and to see if they could make it more potent. However, if it WAS intended to be a bioweapon, it clearly escaped control before it had been fully engineered for that task. Contrary to what Hollywood wants you to think, not all viral escapes from these kinds of facilities are going to be extinction level events caused by fully complete weaponized materials.

The fact that the virus originated in China seems like reason enough to pin blame on China for letting it get out of control. It's not "fake news" to point out facts.

Pretty much every tech channel on Youtube lately has been praising everything in the Gen 3 Ryzen line as both a good value and best performance. Especially true if you go hog wild with either a Ryzen 7 or a Ryzen 9. Gen 3 Ryzen CPUs have been posting as good or better than their Intel counterparts at easily 25-50% lower prices. So IMO there's really no good reason to pay the Intel Tax these days.

Definitely give AMD Ryzen a serious look. They've got some damn good chips out right now that beat the socks off of Intel for a lot less money than you'd normally spend on an Intel system. Most of the tech reviewers are going gaga over them now.

I intend to, but my PC needs the attention first and chances are by the time that happens Blades will be out for PC

I'm still hoping to see this game come to PC since I can't afford to upgrade my phone

SARS (1 and 2), MERS, COVID-19, and the "Common Cold" are all Coronaviruses. Very contagious among humans and we don't develop lasting immunity to them. So yes, certainly possible they could have been researching a bioweapons application for a particularly nasty strain. It's not so outlandish to think that it could be an escape from the lab. Not all bioweapon escapes need to become The Stand. It also pays to keep in mind that COVID-19 hasn't yet killed anywhere close to the number of people that the bog standard seasonal influenza ourbreaks do each year. So there's an element of false crisis involved here. As for the whole animal kingdom thing, the rumor has it that this came from a bunch of idiots eating bat heads or something and being rather unsanitary about it. Bottom line is, this will pass. You'll probably even catch it and have no idea what you've got because your body will display all of the same symptoms as a seasonal cold. Which means most of the same things we all do to ease our symptoms will work just as well as they always have. The panic being generated from this is overblown.

Ran into this video last week - has a really good breakdown of what exactly COVID-19 is. Which is a strain of the SARS virus. COVID-19 actually describes the ensuing lung infection. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q0A0LyMru3I I've also heard the theory on it being a botched bioweapon release as well, ironically NOT from any of our own US media either. And yes, I know, bioweapons are designed to kill billions. When they're finished. According to this theory, the virus was still being developed using Coronavirus methodology because it works and we humans don't develop immunities to them easily. As far as where it actually came from, the only thing anyone seems to agree on is that it's from the Wuhan region of China.

Heh, that's impossible as there is no such thing Local media in the area where you (the general you) live may be less problematic, but they're all still beholden to their ratings systems and a crisis makes for good ratings. So they're going to keep it alive for as long as they can. Also, I know this may sound paranoid or something, but watch what your governments are doing behind the scenes while everyone's attention is on the virus. This is when they like to sneak in crap we'd normally jump on them for in the open.

Even people who live in the middle of nowhere are affected The State of Utah closed all public schools statewide for 14 days (beyond the expected spring break that's already coming), all restaurants and bars are closed except for delivery options, pretty much every major event that had been planned has been canceled, and there's even several counties that are enforcing travel restrictions in and out of other nearby counties. When they said "May you live in interesting times" I doubt this is what anyone had in mind.

I don't see why an answer of some kind wouldn't be possible. Cartogriffi would be the one to forward the question through and he's easily accessible on the official forum or on some modding servers on Discord.
