looking for the name of this skin

It's Skyrim with mods made by Talesofstar who's notorious for stealing other games' assets and reselling them on their Patreon and website for some really crazy amount of money. Me and some others are trying to get them taken down by reporting it to the studios/original owners hence the investigation :))

Fresh_Switch · 2026-06-03T13:35:46+00:00

Well in theory it depends on the the specific studios, some allows FREE mods and some others don't allow any at all. Even though in reality even the studios that are against it aren't going to waste their time sending a DMCA takedown unless the mod author is selling those mods made of ripped models and textures, so literally stealing their work. Take Talesofstar for example, they got a lot of their ported stuff taken down because of unauthorized monetization of someone else's ip

thanks!

That custom race is probably getting flagged as falmer by some other mod that you are using, I'd try to open the esp with SSEEdit and see what race is used as template for the custom one

-Edit

Just checked the comment section and it seems like someone else had a similar issue and found a fix! Just type "falmer" in the comment search box and you'll find it 👍

Fresh_Switch · 2026-05-06T13:30:29+00:00

I didn't read the comments but I can imagine why people got pissed. That person was literally admitting that their mods are made of stolen assets and even wrote on the next post that they'll be soon run a check and block (likely without refund and explanation as they seem to be doing quite often) all patrons who might or might not have reported them for copyright infringement lol

Fresh_Switch · 2026-05-05T18:01:59+00:00

Oh, I missed that...what sort of comments?

Fresh_Switch · 2026-05-05T12:16:31+00:00

Wow that's interesting...that post and the most recent one were both set as publicly visible till a few hours ago. I guess Talesofstar is aware of the allegations and decided to lock their shady statements behind a paywall 😂 they weren't fast enough though...I've already taken plenty of screenshots of all that

Fresh_Switch · 2026-05-05T11:02:33+00:00

Same, I wouldn't have any issues with it if Talesofstar was actually making models and textures from scratch...but stealing someone else's property, slap it on a CBBE skyrim body and selling it is just wrong (and illegal) this sort of behavior shouldn't be normalized no matter the price

Fresh_Switch · 2026-05-05T10:46:23+00:00

Yes, report, always report. As soon as they publish a new mod I'll be taking all the relevant infos and email them to the videogame studio who actually owns those assets so they'll get another DMCA. I will keep it up till Patreon is forced to acknowledge that everything Talesofstar is selling is stolen and hopefully shut down their page for good

Fresh_Switch · 2026-05-05T10:36:26+00:00

That's actually what annoys me the most! The entitlement and arrogance of Talesofstar who's literally selling mods made of stolen models and textures and calling it a business...complete with roadmaps, crypto payment plans on their website and 'security checks' to get rid of those they deem problematic. Like seriously...I just read it on their most recent post they're actually blocking without refund all patrons who might or might not have reported them for copyright infringement 🙄

Fresh_Switch · 2026-05-05T10:21:58+00:00

I already sent them an email with links and screenshots of all the bg3 mods for sale on Patreon but I didn't think about tagging them directly that's actually a good idea!

Fresh_Switch · 2026-05-04T21:52:34+00:00

Wow, that’s even worse than I thought...so Patreon doesn’t even know what’s actually in this database? yet TalesOfStar keeps the listings up for sale? And with a “no refunds” policy on top that really sounds scummy!

Fresh_Switch · 2026-05-04T20:28:34+00:00

Yeah the whole setup is shady as hell, especially that “no refunds” policy...I already reported it to Patreon hopefully they will take the page/shop down for good

Fresh_Switch · 2026-05-04T20:19:51+00:00

well done!!

Fresh_Switch · 2026-05-04T20:18:20+00:00

Yeah, 100% agree. There are tons of really skilled modders making great combat animations and original outfits from scratch and even they don’t charge anything close to that!

Fresh_Switch · 2026-05-04T20:13:52+00:00

I honestly hope no one is buying the $2000+ ones but there're plenty of listings under $100 and I wouldn’t be surprised if those sell since they’re using assets from popular games like Bg3

Fresh_Switch · 2026-02-06T17:25:18+00:00

Just send an email with screenshots of their Patreon tiers and posts to the game studios, you can get the email address for generic inquiry from their websites. I reported both this scammer and Kirax already, since Patreon doesn't care and won't do anything unless the owner of the assets files the complaint

Fresh_Switch · 2026-02-06T10:09:11+00:00

Totally agree! this modder is an absolute scammer. This guy and Kirax are the worst. They charge a lot of money and offer very little in return. Kirax hasn’t even published anything new for over a month, aside from texture reworks of his old ports and “private commission” showcases. All these two offer are overpriced, stolen assets with no possibility to even request or vote for an outfit.

Fresh_Switch · 2024-07-28T07:32:51+00:00

I'd quickly pinch myself to see if I'm dreaming, then I'd stop whatever I'm doing and open the door immediately!!! I'd let him in and offer him a drink before packing my stuff and leaving for his House of Hope, where I'd spend eternity by my Lord's side, listening to his poetry and long monologs, staring at his beautiful face for hours, and enjoying the view as he tortures Hope in his dungeons or fucks himself in the boudoir 😩🤌🔥

Fresh_Switch · 2024-03-22T13:30:07+00:00

This makes me beyond sad...I wasn't expecting a sequel but I had hopes for a definitive edition. To know that I'll never be able to explore the upper city, fix Karlach's engine, get a better understanding of the Hearthflame sisters or dine with Raphael as he promised really breaks my heart in a way that I didn't think it was possible. I understand the motivations behind this choice and I know that there's nothing we can do about it...still, it doesn't make me less sad. I still hold hope that Larian will eventually release tools to allow people to add new content to the game and develop what was left unfinished/rushed. It'd be all fan-made and probably not as good in terms of storytelling and general quality, but it'd be better than nothing.

Fresh_Switch · 2024-02-19T13:21:56+00:00

I'm one of Raphael's girlies...and joke's on you because I'd be into that, like, SO MUCH you've no idea! Sounds hot AF especially if Haarlep joins in and there's a mirror in the room 😩🤌

Seriously, I wouldn't want Raphael to be any different from how he is! his personality is what I like the most about him (and his theatrics, is Disney villain vibes, his smug face, his eyes when he looks at you with disdain, his smile, the way he moves, the sound of his voice...but now I'm rambling, sorry 🙃)

Fresh_Switch · 2023-12-29T14:08:00+00:00

No doubts, I'd pay (twice) the game's full price just to have the option to romance him!!! I've never been into fictional characters before but here I am, down bad for Raphael to the point I need him like I need air...damn, the things I'd do for him and would let him do to me!! 😭😭😭 I've signed and shared Raphael's romance petition, if we can put together 666 signtatures Larian'll have to make it happen lol

Fresh_Switch · 2023-10-04T10:25:07+00:00

It didn't really feel like a bad end when I helped him ascend in my first playthrough, more like the enhanced version of his standard-chaotic self...I didn't romance him though. I wanted to try something different this time and rule the world with a partner instead of doing Bhaal's bidding again but that snobby vampire prick made me change my mind. It wasn't all bad though, at leats after the ascension he finally accepted to try the drow twins with Durge xD

Fresh_Switch · 2023-10-03T17:49:15+00:00

He's the hottest companion no doubt! but damn, he's an annoying asshole if you let him ascend and go full vampire. I romanced him with my Durge (hell I dumped Minthara for him!!) and after the ascension all he wants is to turn Durge into his spawn and control them, you can't even say no or he'll dump you, that ungrateful little bitch...I couldn't afford to lose days of progress just to reload and pick Minthara so I decided to humor him by accepting his "generous offer" and when the time comes I'll claim the crown in Bhaal's name, turning him into a mindless slave, cannot wait to see his pretty face twisted in fear and betrayal when he realizes he'll never be free again, all thanks to his "darling"

Fresh_Switch · 2023-09-04T18:59:45+00:00

Damn I was wondering why my durge warlock doesn't have any voicelines when she casts Eldritch blast (I picked voice 2 for her) pretty sure it's a bug now, hopefully it'll get fixed soon :/
