Adding New Continents

[Seniosh]

Hmm well i'm not an expert on starting mods, but if you were in fact interested in modding one of these provinces, first i would suggest
a) finding out if they still exist, cause there have been destroyed continents. then, find out all the lore you can, to see if it's feasable to do. Looking at the pocket guide to the empire, yokuda is destroyed, aldmeris is belived to be sunken or dissappeared, and atmora is a frozen wasteland. Sorry for the depressing news, but it's lore. The only projects left in lore are Pyandonea and summerset...

then,
b) find out if there is interest from the modding community in making this. you can't build a continent by yourself, unless you have multiple arms and 27 hours a day free time. for this i'd suggest posting on ESF, and other modding forums, to see if you can gather a mod team. You may want to do some stuff on your own, to show you are legit. otherwise you will get laughed at.

c) get to work on it! the hard part is you'd have to set up towns, interiors, probably make an entirely new tileset. to be completely serious, i'm not sure how feasable it is, ST's just copying existing tilesets and we aren't done yet.

Looking at the options of lore places left, the only options are Pyandonea, sea homeland of the Maormer, relatives of the aldmer and enemies of summerset. Not much else is known.

Then there's summerset. Summerset is kind of a cursed project, because it's been tried, and abandoned, and then more interest was put into it, and it failed again... BUT it is the most feasable, seeing as it HAS been a project in the past, and they even completed some models, but fell apart (i belive from lack of leadership or interest, but this is all before i got here)

If you feel yourself a strong leader, and don't mind the restrictions of lore, summerset would be the most realistic thing to mod. You'd have to talk to IATE, cause he's got a stockpile of models apparantly. You would also have to post on the ESF forums and get attention and modders. If you really are serious, and KNOW you have the motivation and drive to keep a province like this going nicely, you could probably discuss it with razorwing and see what he says. The core will decide what to do.

[edit] i hope this isn't that confusing, tell me to simplify it if it is. to recap the important points, yokuda was destroyed centuries ago, which means the only real lore-correct place is summerset, which would require a lot of work, but is do-able.

To tell you the truth, Summerset Isle has always peaked my interest, but I never made the effort of starting something like it, since the land is shrouded with mystery. Though now realizing that it failed twice, shows that it would have been poor leadership skills. I would love to continue the Summerset project, especially with the motivation of seeing the Crystal Tower in Cloudrest (I think it was??) Anyway, there is also the fact that all the other provinces are being done except for Summerset, and I don't believe that is, well, fair. I will give it more thought for sure because I always have had the motivation for modding, I bet I am the only one that mods while everyone else is downstairs opening their Christmas presents (true story).
