New Discord Server

Hi all!

If you had a peek at our (old) Discord server lately, you probably saw the announcement, but here it is for everyone else: 

Althro (author of ADT, AVO, Tinvaak) and I have decided to merge our respective communities and set up a new Discord serve...

February 2023 Update

Hi!

Wow, it’s been a while. Since sometime in October (?) I have been completely silent in the modding world which is the longest time that I have been “out” of the community in about six years. The reasons for that are complex and I want to get into them, but since my personal stuff ...

Legends of the Frost 3.0 Preview

Hey all!

Yes, I know, it's TPF 5.0 that I should be working on (I promise, I am!). But LOTF is also due for another major update in celebration of the upcoming one year anniversary of the list. LOTF 1.0 was published on 04-09-2021 and I intend to publish LOTF 3.0 on 04-09-2022. View Post

April 2022 Update

Hello lovelies!

Against my better judgement I decided to take off the Easter holiday. I have two papers due very soon, five presentations, an essay, a group project, and then finals all within the next six weeks. Oh, and regular homework/reading assignments as well, of course. Before I star...

January 2022 Update

Hey all!

So this update post is long overdue. Over the past few weeks there has been basically radio silence on TPF 5.0 progress which I am terribly sorry about, but it doesn't mean there was no progress! There is a lot going on for me IRL right now so I'm completely swamped by too many thi...

Hey lovelies, got some updates for you all!

Legends of the Frost 2.0

Yes, LOTF will get updated to Skyrim SE 1.6.318.0 when that is possible. It's the latest patch that was released alongside AE (but doesn't require you to own the AE DLC). I intend to release LOTF for Skyrim AE as 2...

October 2021 Update

Happy Halloween!

Yes, I just barely managed for this to still be an October update, posting on the 31st.  October was wild (most people active on our Discord server will have noticed me saying that a lot lately), I've had my final day at school and am now about to take my final exams. ...

Hi all!

Those of you following Lexy's Patreon know that she does monthly updates which I thought was pretty neat. Basically I'm trying to do the same now.

July 2021 Update

Hi all!

The holidays are here and I have more free time on my hands than could possibly be sensible. With about four of six weeks free to spend on modding stuff, I will hopefully Get Stuff Done before my finals swallow me up in Autumn.

TPF Release 4.6 Preview

Hey all!

It's that time again: I'm a nearing completion of the next major update for TPF which will be release 4.6. I estimate a release on June, 26th or 27th, provided Simon hits his own deadline for releasing Adamant 5.0 on June, 25th. Otherwise, we'll delay a bit.

Thank You

As some of you may know, I am still going to school. The reasons for that are fairly complex but either way I'm almost done and will be writing my finals in October of this year. Then I will finally hold what in Germany we call Abitur in my hands which allows me apply for a programme at universit...

TPF May Update

Hi all!

First up, it's been awhile (almost a full month since the last update) - sorry about that. Part of the reason for the long silence is the project I slaved on for the past week or so which is now finally out: 2021-05-24 10:36:55 +0000 UTC View Post

The State of TPF 4.5

Hey guys!

I made it. The exams are all done, the final day of school was survived, it's the holidays. The next two weeks I will have entirely to myself. In the second week, with some squeezing of the ol' wallet, I will finally upgrade my PC - new motherboard, CPU, AIO cooler, and case to co...

The Phoenix Flavour - Cinematic Trailer

Yeah, baby, that's right, we have a trailer now. It was created by the amazing Adriac - so it's miles better than anything I could have come up with - and if it doesn't summon your Skyrim itch, I don't know what will.

Go watch it!

March Update - Fallout 4 and Skyrim SE

Hey all!

You may have noticed that the frequency of updates to TPF has increased dramatically since the release of 4.0 in January. I was burned out from modding Skyrim before but 4.0 changes revitalised my motivation and I have a ton of cool things for TPF planned for the near future.

2020 TPF Survey Responses

So a few months back I launched a survey for all TPF users. At the time, the next update was still supposed 3.6 so it's somewhat outdated. Nevertheless, I found the results interested and also wanted to take the time to respond to various comments and questions. The survey had 341 View Post
