The UESPWiki – Your source for The Elder Scrolls since 1995

| I missed my moment |
And how could I fail to miss it, reading tomorrow's papers
on the internet, hearing songs by the white dwarves
of rock pretending to be supernovas. Seeing
how a tsunami from years ago keeps on engulfing
the same old villages, and the World Trade Center towers
are hurriedly rebuilt by night in order languidly
to tumble by day. So tell me, how could I not miss
my moment in a world where the same newspaper
comes out in four versions: conservative, |
|
progressive, moderate and without text. In times
when the unused minutes pass on to the next
month. I missed my moment. When, where?
Or maybe it missed me? Vanished
over the horizon, grew fat infinitely.
And is waiting. |

[edit] About Me
Gaming Me: Oblivion was my first ES game, and I played it off and on for around five years. I'm now playing Skyrim regularly, and eventually, I want to go through the other games as well, starting with Arena and moving forward. I'll probably also play another game of Baldur's Gate II soon, and I'm looking forward to getting Diablo III and the new X-Com game at some point.
Real Me: I'm a 43-year-old gay guy who lives in Ottawa with my partner, Pat. I'm on disability, being nearly housebound by Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, which is why you can often see me here at odd hours. If you're interested in knowing what that's like from a personal perspective, I wrote about it on Facebook a while back: A Day in the Life of CFS.

[edit] Mods I Created
[edit] Skyrim
Adds quest markers to all Stones of Barenziah in No Stone Unturned.
[edit] Rob's Fixes
Not publicly released, but available on request. The current list of fixes can be found here.
[edit] Oblivion/SI
Mod List
Tired of searching containers, hoping that a random oddity for the Museum of Oddities will show up? Exhausted all amber sources (which are non-respawning without the Unofficial Shivering Isles Patch) and still didn't find a Sheogorath-shaped amber? This mod is for you! It adds at least one of every random oddity to fixed locations in Shivering Isles.
Fixes the skill selection bug after serving your time in jail, as documented here. (Also included in the UOP.)
This mod adds quest markers to all open Oblivion Gates, making them much easier to find.
Removes regeneration from Dread Zombies so that they're not as stupidly overpowered.
"Rob's Fixes" was never released, however it was sent to the makers of the UOP and many of the fixes were included from version 3.2.5 onwards. The full original list of fixes can be found here, though not all were included in the UOP.

[edit] Other Projects, Hacks, Etc.
- Beta-tester (briefly) for the last Unofficial Oblivion Patch.
- Contributed significantly to the Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines Unofficial Patch.
- Hacked Diablo II's character saved-game format for v. 1.09+, correctly figuring out the CRC check...only to find out someone else had beaten me to it. :(
- Created a tiny mod to light up the various treasure sources in Diablo II and change trapped containers to glow red. Never released publicly, but available on request if anybody wants it.
- Designed a "Speed Dating" mod for Baldur's Gate II that makes romances less glacial; in beta-testing.
- Completely reverse-engineered Ultima III in 1993 and reproduced the game in a more "modern" Turbo Pascal 7, complete with interrupt-based animation. Lost the code in a hard drive crash about a year or two later.
- Created map decoder complete with both text-based display and full graphical animation for X-COM: Terror from the Deep. Lost the code in the same hard drive crash as above. I re-created a text-only version of it in Turbo Pascal 7 afterwards, but never the full graphical version.
