not compatable with 95% of my subscribed mods

I still use this mod even after 11.11.11 launch day. I hope you can update both Oda & Duurnehviir, thanks

This changed the way Odahviing's shout sounds, his vanilla firebreath is much different than the other dragons but this mod changes it.

Doge, i'm aware this is a late reply but in the defence of this mod. I Looked up this issue.. There are many related posts on this happening (People who play on console too). I HIGHLY doubt this mod causes any glitches with Odahviing.
Odahviing's stats wouldn't have anything to do with his script to land.

The most common problem in this quest is that players forget to talk to the Jarl again and tell him that you're ready to spring the trap. (The dragon will come regardless of this but will never land until the Jarl is spoken to.)

There are other reported issues that if the guard that gets picked up and dropped isn't where he is supposed to be, that this will also cause issues.

The solution? reload a save before you enter dragons reach and be sure to talk to the jarl first.

Thanks for the information. great mod btw

No, this mod doesn't give you earlier access to Odahviing. You still get the ability to summon him after you beat the main quest, it just means it's okay to install this mod at an earlier point in your game and it won't break anything.
Sheng 17 Apr, 2016 @ 9:56pm 
so you said that you can "use this mod on a new character even before you beat the main quest." That includes odaviing actually attacking the enemy and not fly around right.. before killing Alduin?
AMOGUS 30 Mar, 2016 @ 11:35am 
also might i ask why did u post something i said i already tried, which didint work like i didint know what i was doing which is false and that ur the skyrim modding expert? lol
AMOGUS 30 Mar, 2016 @ 11:34am 
i already did that as even with the mod deleted and unsubscribed, the model didint revert to the original
Gilgamesh  [author] 29 Mar, 2016 @ 6:00pm 
You don't have to restart the game dude. Try doing the fight with my mod disabled and see if anything changes, it might be caused by something else entirely. My mod doesn't use scripts or make worldspace edits so it's safe to enable and disable whenever you want.
AMOGUS 29 Mar, 2016 @ 4:39pm 
seriously dragon rend was useless cause he flew straight up and flew away from the porchm even when he was close to the porch dragonrend didint work as he flew away like he was immumne to dragon rend
AMOGUS 29 Mar, 2016 @ 4:38pm 
nothing else worked
AMOGUS 29 Mar, 2016 @ 4:38pm 
cant, he keeps circling the porch and wont land even with dragon rend, tried the shout call dragon everywhere, either he circles the porch or flies straight up, and he never lands, EVER, reloaded a save, nothing, tried using dragon rend, didint work as he flew straight up and wouldint land. nothing works, so i have to restart my entire game
Gilgamesh  [author] 29 Mar, 2016 @ 4:14pm 
To get him to land you can either retreat back inside or just use dragonrend on him. You know, the shout you got that FORCES DRAGONS TO LAND. Seriously dude, don't restart your entire game, why would you do that?
AMOGUS 29 Mar, 2016 @ 2:29pm 
using ur mod broke my game making the quest unplayable, now i have to start a new game because of ur mod breaking it and making odahving gltich out and NEVER land -_-
Asteroid 2 Mar, 2016 @ 8:19am 
where can I find the Odahviing me appears the ned as Dragon please help me:steamsad:
joe | trade.tf 14 Nov, 2015 @ 10:10am 
is it compatible with the armored odahviing mod
Tanor 23 Oct, 2015 @ 7:50pm 
dude, i subscribed to this, and when i loaded my game, all the dragons were normal dragons. why that's bad? before getting this mod, THEY WERE ALL FROST DRAGONS, now i have no challenge! WTF IS GOING ON?!
Gilgamesh  [author] 12 Aug, 2015 @ 9:49pm 
Yes, pretty sure I have Extra Encounters + the DLC versions of it too. This one does a lot more and like I said the amount of customization is ridiculous. You can specify exactly which types of enemies can be spawned, set the number of enemies for a group of each type individually, then there's a global spawn multiplier on the main page to easily change the total size of encounters, which is great for if you use follower mods as you can quickly change encounter size depending on how many you have with you.

Only downside is that it only appears to work in mainland Skyrim, so you'd need to find other stuff for the DLC areas. I'm not 100% sure if it's Extra Encounters Dragonborn that does this, but in my game the entire southern half of Solstheim is filled with like this army of 100+ ash spawn that makes for some crazy battles.
Lampros 12 Aug, 2015 @ 8:35pm 
Ah, I was looking at DFB MCM as well. Is that compatible with Extra Encounters? I have the latter.
Gilgamesh  [author] 12 Aug, 2015 @ 8:30pm 
@Lampros: In addition to playing on legendary, I use a mod that adds random encounters with large groups of enemies all over the world as well as the Deadly Dragons mod. For the encounters one search "DFB MCM" on the skyrim nexus site. You need to have SkyUI installed to be able to customize it in the game menu but the customization options are insanely detailed. Definitely check it out. I used to use the Warzones mod way back in the day but apparently it does all sorts of bad things to corrupt savegames. I've heard the creator is remaking it but I'd be skeptical of trying it again, my advice is to stay away from that one.
Gilgamesh  [author] 12 Aug, 2015 @ 8:30pm 
@Dinkles: If you have the creation kit installed, you can just open up my .esp then go to magic > voicepower and start typing "odahviing" into the search bar. It should come up with a power called voiceOdahviingFire or something similar. When you double-click on it there will be a bunch of effect entries. Look for the one with the highest value in the "magnitude" column as that's the only one you need to change (the others are all just used during the quest where you fight him). Change the magnitude value to whatever suits you and save the mod. I'm not sure how autoupdating works on Steam Workshop so after you edit it you might want to make a backup copy of the new mod in case the game redownloads the version that's up here.
Lampros 9 Aug, 2015 @ 11:51am 
To the mod creator:

Just curious: What difficulty enhancing mods do you use that you need over-powered dragons as helpers? I am looking for mods that increase enemy strength and numbers as well. And if they do prove a challenge, I will download your dragon mods as well.

P.S. You should do unique item overhauls for all DLC items. I like what you did with the unique bow - reasonable buffs, not over-powered LOL gadgets.
Chainmail 9 Aug, 2015 @ 11:28am 
Is there a way to manually edit the damage values yourself? I want Odahviing to be stronger, but I don't want him so insanely overpowered he one-shots anything I put him up against.

I want him to help me win battles, not win battles for me with no effort.
AMOGUS 4 Apr, 2015 @ 11:59am 
mega dragons i belive only changes all the dragons sizes or makes em bigger
AMOGUS 4 Apr, 2015 @ 11:59am 
will this work with the summon dragons mod and the mega dragons mod i have?
That Guy 1 Nov, 2014 @ 11:27am 
Goood thing about these mods is that is does nothing with the textures, btw, search up thanatos bad ass shit right there!

I for one am amazed and impressed by the amount of work put into this, especially all of the contigencies.
Gilgamesh  [author] 20 Aug, 2014 @ 11:35pm 
Sorry bro, she only works in your game if it's as awesome as mine.
Praj3ktmayhem 9 Aug, 2014 @ 6:18pm 
You should put that alpha mage character on here lol
Mr.Cookey 8 Aug, 2014 @ 12:32am 
Thx
Gilgamesh  [author] 7 Aug, 2014 @ 7:41pm 
Yep, the only thing is that it will be pretty much impossible to keep him around long enough for your summon shout cooldown to expire. But if you set your shoutrecoverymult to 0 or 0.1 or something else low, you'd have time to be able to hit him with bend will and ride him.

You can also usually find him flying around High Hrothgar to use bend will on him if you want to keep normal shout cooldowns.
Mr.Cookey 7 Aug, 2014 @ 3:18pm 
Can i ride him with Bend will shout?
fmblaster258 18 Jul, 2014 @ 6:03am 
thanks lol
Gilgamesh  [author] 18 Jul, 2014 @ 5:20am 
Vanilla means no mods, only the content Bethesda has produced.
fmblaster258 18 Jul, 2014 @ 4:20am 
ok dumb question but i just started playing skyrim on pc and id just like to know what is meant by "vanilla" skyrim lol
Accuser 7 Jun, 2014 @ 7:26am 
no problem. I just didn't want to miss such an character, if she is available. She reminded me somewhat of the "Soulbound follower" Mod, which i greatly liked. But it's down, so i must search for a new companion.
Gilgamesh  [author] 7 Jun, 2014 @ 6:02am 
That's my Altmer mage character, I made her into a follower for my main character's game. Not going to ever put her on here or nexus though, sorry.
Accuser 7 Jun, 2014 @ 4:33am 
Who the heck is that girl in the forth pic? I'm searching for some goodlooking companions, who will wear the female clothes, so i don't have to play the girl and wear slutty outfits all the time
Gilgamesh  [author] 18 May, 2014 @ 11:29am 
It's from the Deadly Dragons mod on skyrimnexus (not sure if it's on workshop). That screenshot's from a year or two ago though so I'm not sure if that particular dragon is still in the newest version. I highly recommend that mod to go along with mine though as it makes enemy dragons far more powerful and good opponents for Odahviing and Durnehviir, just make sure my mods are placed below it in your load order.
Viole 18 May, 2014 @ 4:04am 
in picture 5 what is that dragon on the right or does it need addon?
Viole 18 May, 2014 @ 4:01am 
ok
Gilgamesh  [author] 17 May, 2014 @ 5:04pm 
I'm not exactly sure what causes that bug to happen, however I did add him to the player faction and change his AI to help friends and allies, so theoretically any time an enemy aggros to you and attacks, Odahviing will be hostile to them. You need to make sure the enemies have actually attacked you for it to be guaranteed though, as he will not always attack random enemies who haven't engaged you (though sometimes he will, Skyrim AI is strange). Mess around with calling him to different fights and see for yourself.
Viole 17 May, 2014 @ 8:04am 
Gilgamesh does it fix him flying and just watching you fight and die?
Gilgamesh  [author] 16 May, 2014 @ 6:53pm 
Pretty much any appearance mod should be compatible with my mod. The only time it wouldn't be is if it has an .esp that edits his actor info and changes his model to something other than the default. Most mods won't do this as they can just include a new mesh/texture with the same name as the default to overwrite it.

As for other dragon mods, this mod will play nice with all of them as the only changes it makes are to Odahviing's actor info and combat style. No other dragons are edited or affected by the changes, so just place this mod below any other dragon mods in your load order and you're good to go.
peajay64 16 May, 2014 @ 5:02pm 
So, this is compatible with other dragon mods, including ones that alter Odahviings appearence?
Dragon Protector 1 Mar, 2014 @ 3:33pm 
i had to uninstall this mod and the other one caused problems but fixed it by installing one that says strong cause i had the mod that made me able to fly both of them and had mighty dragon mod installed to
