Skyrim- Cinematic Conversations? [Mod]
Hey there guys,
Is there a cinematic conversation mod similar to what Dragon Age: Origins did or what Fallout 4 did? It's a simple question, and from my google searches I can't really find an actual mod, only ideas. I've haven't touched this game in a while, and have just got back into it due to hardware upgrades. Are there any of you guys out there have a mod that has what I'm looking for??? If so can you link?

Cinematic conversations would require a speaking protagonist. And Dragonborn doesn't speak. So far as I know, a mod like you're asking about not only doesn't exist, but might be impossible.

I remember a mod that made the camera zoom in during conversations like Oblivion did, but nothing that offers a cinematic view.

Vanilla skyrim doesn't support DoF, and you can't really interface with ENB DoF, so I doubt it'd look that good even if it was possible. On top of that, Dynavision is an extremely cheap DoF and I doubt it'd be able to accomplish the effect.

Let me be a bit more clear. As DA:O and Fallout 4 have similar but a little different cameras. I'm looking for something like DA:O, where the camera is on your face when you make a decision with the dialogue, or when someone is speaking the camera is on their face at an angle, or the camera is behind you when they're speaking (so it shows the back of your head and the person speaking to you in focus). These cinematic camera shots only take place when someone is speaking to you.

Oh no I don't want anything like that. But how did they do that? Did they move the camera while freezing the characters in place? If it does, should it be possible to do these cinematic shots as you just move the camera to either a third person perspective or have it just on their face at say, a 45 degree angle from the normal?

I'm imagining it to be just a camera change and not freezing the world like it did in oblivion or fallout 3/NV.

Basically this.

Jesus Christ, that's a hell of an illustration for a random topic on a Skyrim discussion board.

As for your question, I think what they did was they just zoomed the camera in. It wasn't anything more than that, really. It might be possible to do what you're suggesting, though, because the camera isn't really limited at all during dialogue in the vanilla game, so imposing a limit on it shouldn't be too difficult.

Would it be easier to make this a real mod if it was only one camera angle? Like say the creator of Face-to-Face Conversations were to make a third-person add-on. It could include the camera zooming in a bit and moving to an over the shoulder view from the player's left shoulder. That way the focus could be on the person the player is talking to, but have the player still in the shot, just not the main focus. I think this camera angle could also help with the fact that there's no voice actor for Skyrim, and we wouldn't be staring at a blank face if the camera was on the player.

That is incredibly well illustrated, and just what i was looking for. Unfortunately over a year later and i still cant seem to find such a mod. Suprised nobody has done it really, would really echance the entire rpg feel.
