How do I disable SSAO with the ENB config that 'StopMaking Sense' provided. It's like a slideshow... Edit: Found it, just testing it out now.

Do you have the 12.2 preview ati drivers? Have you updated your drivers at all since installing bootcamp? SSAO was similarly horrible sub 1 fps for me as well until the last few ati drivers.

But the ENB profile should look really good sans SSAO, too.

Hey guys. Does anyone remember what the hi-res skill tree mod is called? I've searched but am having no luck locating it in the nexus or on GAF

[ScRYeD]

Real Wildlife - keep an eye on this, it's planning on extending the number of different types of animals running around the world by 'hundreds', so that there aren't just one single type of each animal in the world. A very good idea.

Real Wildlife's been out for a little while now, Skyrim is a hell of a lot livelier now. The only thing i don't like so far is that there are dragons who just fly around alot and do nothing, hopefully this is a bug and some dragons do attack.

Flora Overhaul by Vurt is the one i use just type in tree in the search at nexus and you'll find lots more.

I have the 12.1 drivers. I turned off SSAO and it was running really well. I'm not sure I like the look though...something about it just seems off... I might get those new drivers and see if having SSAO on makes it more to my liking.

Is there a mod that allows you to enchant an item without removing its smithing improvement? I hate that.

Does anyone know why my game's performance starts to deteriorate the more I play in 1 session? It starts out great 40+ or whatever , everywhere in the world. Eventually it gets to the teens in fps or lower and I have to reboot to make in playable again. It only happens in Skyrim or in Cities, never in any dungeons or buildings. Really annoying. I have 15 mods installed via Steam, I don't think any are over 1mb + the HD texture pack. I don't understand why it's playable at the start then just dies the more I load into and out of places, if that's what is causing it. Shouldn't it just be always playable or always crappy?

I get this too. Sounds like you have a 1GB card like I do. I'm running some big texture mods (Beth 1+2, Vurts, isoku's stuff, and various armor and weapons mods). Its the lack of VRAM and even though performance is great for an hour or two it will occasionally get glitchy. I can just quit out and reload to get the performance back.

Even without any mods in Markath the VRAM hovers around 900MB used. That can easily push the limit of the card if you had even a couple big texture mods.

Thanks for that, but I was actually referring to the perks/level-up menu. I remember there being a hi-res mod with a few other bells and whistles included. Looked much prettier but added nothing function wise.

Wouldn't have the faintest idea what it's called. I did a search on nexus and google but luck is not on my side.

Currently - No.

Mod's aren't really meant to be like Gamesharks for the game.. That doesn't mean they can't be though. More creative mods are being made at the moment.

[Darkman M]

I'm thinking about transferring over to NMM from MO, or perhaps considering the use of Wyre Bash... I want to make my game more stable and I'm willing to work for it... Any suggestions people? What do ya'll think is the best idea? Ideally I want to merge mods, but I don't know how to do that... yet. TESSnip is apparently able to merge mods, and so is WyreBash but I really don't understand WyreBash at all and whenever I use it, it seems to just fuck things up for me :/ This is a nice retex of the Glass Armor - http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/downloads/file.php?id=10235

As of right now i say NMM+Wyre Bash combo is the way to go. Wyre Bash is an amazing tool once you get it installed correctly, took me forever in Oblivion to get it working, but it worked fine the first time for Skyrim.

Damn i should read a bit better, just saw tree mod and thought about tree's.

[IoCaster]

The post processing and shaders that I'm using have really grown on me. It's very close to vanilla Skyrim with a bit more color and goes well with the HD textures that I'm using. I did a bit of tweaking today and took some more pics...

Does anybody know why the Realistic Water Textures and Vurt's Flora mod got set to hidden on Nexus?

Interesting, both of them are visible for me. The realistic water textures is now one big package here and the Vurt's flora overhaul is here. Not sure why those wouldn't be visible.

[S0N0S]

I know some choose to hide their mods when updating their files, but it could also be site issues. The weekends are especially bad for the Nexus. Too many people using the site at once. Right now, I see both of the mods, though.

EDIT: Wow, this is probably the worst weekend for Skyrim Nexus yet. At this point, no page will load for me. Steam users are flooding the Nexus.

Hey guys, there is apparently some sort of bug that doesn't allow to to 'ad more' to the game than 'one' extra item to a cell at the moment with the CK.

So, you can't go and ad like 5 different player homes to a cell otherwise it will f'k up your game.

I've been starting to have a lot of crashing problems again lately, and I figured out it was the player houses / new areas / new quest lines that were causing the problem. It's unfortunate because I enjoyed the Arena oh so much.

I also think the 'Various Guards' mod is buggy. It works inside cities, but it doesn't like the outside of cities.

For example, one could not use mods like Real Lights - Cities, Detailed Cities, and Crowded Cities together?

If so, this combined with the LOD issues, the navmesh bug, and the rest of the CK bugs, things are still pretty fucked up at the moment. It seems as though Bethesda did very little bug testing for CK content, if any. You'd think they'd at least insure that the type of content the tutorials covered would work.

Hey Guys... here is the second shield I've created. It's a retexture (I didn't create the mesh). But I think it turned out especially awesome.







Also - i think the Nexus has died, they really need to get those servers upgraded.

Another also is that I think there is not enough examples of 'blue' places in the game and so I thought I'd share a couple of my favorite pics from the last few days.



I love that first one so much, i was so lucky with the timing to have that Giant walking there right at that time. So good.

No, it's not like that... I think that still works. It's got something to do with creating 'new' areas. I'll try and find the link.

Basically, there is some worldsize limitation in the game-somewhere and because Bethesda pushed their engine essentially to it's limits they 'filled' their codespace, therefore any 'new lands' that go beyonds the regular game's buildings and spaces will cause you to crash the game if it tries to load into your cells. But it only has to do with outside the cities in the over world. I'm not 100% sure about the details I only skimmed it yesterday I've got to find the link.



Also - for those of you considering or wanting to know how to merge mods, I've figured out a way that works for me. I haven't been merging different mods, but rather than mods that came in 'modular' versions (like Valdacil's Item Sorting - SOOO annoying having like 10 .esps) and I've merged any modular versions of various mods into single .esp's in many cases. It's pretty cool and it also found a lot of FORMID errors and over-rides. It's incredible how many errors modders make when programming their mods. It's also no wonder mods cause crashes because they just conflict with each other out of hand.

I suggest everyone does a test to see how many errors they get if they can open up the CK and choose 'open' and then go through and activate all your mods and let the CK check how you're game is going to work with all of them enabled. It should be able to find any errors or conflicts between each mod and automatically make any changes that need to be made to the files to 'fix' the problems that you might have that will cause CTD's. It's not easy, but I swear to you all it will be ABSOLUTELY worth your while to do so.

Love the shield Raptor. I've been mostly busy building my Skyrim Chalet so I haven't had time to create any customized equipment. Unfortunately, with all of the CK bugs cropping up my custom HQ is causing me all kinds of grief to it get working right. As far as the Nexus is concerned it seems like the site is barely held together with spit and baling wire on the weekends.

[Dries]

Oh yeah.. Realistic Water 2.0 is out! Loving this version.

Navmesh Bug

No point making levels, and it causes CTD's in most cases if the level's that have been created are complicated.

[S0N0S]

Is that the bug you were referring to? We've brought it up before in the thread and Bethesda has acknowledged it. A fix is in the works. Oh, and Open Cities development has resumed in light of the news of the incoming fix. Still, who knows when it will come out. The navmesh bug has apparently been around since FO3.

[Tony Redgrave]

Guys check THIS out if you're looking for a lore-friendly Dragon buff.

It makes Dragons tougher and reduces the damage NPC's do to them but not the player (So guards, Giants etc won't solo) it also adds a modified Dismay shout to 20+ level Dragons that does not affect the PC and Unrelenting Force to 30+ lvl Dragons.

Ignore my last post about my second mod. I made a much better version of it with tons of upgrades.

This is an odd request, but I want to get rid of the dragons. I've unlocked every shout and it is annoying that they spawn frequently when I fast travel. To make things worse, they are usually ancient dragons, probably since I am level 51. It would be nice if it was a toggleable ESP file. If no one knows where to find such a mod, I would like advice on how to make a mod.

Open the console with tilde.
Type this and press Enter:

set MQ106TurnOffRandomDragons to 1

Do this everytime you load a game (I think, not really sure right now). You can press ArrowUp in the console to get the previously entered line.

I don't know why you'd want to do this, because I find Dragons to be the most fun battles in the game, but I guess it's all personal opinion so your choice here :D

I don't know of a mod that can do that, but I'll see if it's very difficult to make an esp to turn off dragons, if it's not I'll throw something together for you quickly now.

Eh, I am at a point where the random dragon spawns are a little much. Feels like every 4-5 fast travels at this point.

Are there any mods that make merchants actually possess the money / items they trade with upon killing them? I just came across a caravan of Khajit merchants, bought stuff from them, then killed them and altogether they had less than 200 gold. What?

edit: and the new update to Wars in Skyrim is annoying. Is there a mod that makes the world more alive without making it some strange wasteland controlled by bandits and hostiles? Like, you know, there could be an increased amount of enemies but mostly there would be more civilians, more passive wildlife, etc? More like...it's a real functioning world?

Wars in Skyrim just doesn't make sense. Everyone's out to kill everyone. I haven't tried the wildlife mod but it seems to do the same thing - add tons more wildlife, and that means tons more animals out to slaughter. How on earth are normal civilians in Skyrim supposed to get from town to town?

Skyrim Occupation looks like a good start but it only covers guard/bandit spawns...

Skyrim Immersion Mod

[Vasilisk]

I don't know if anyone has tried the recent Hardcore mod, but for now its certainly broken. It's based in the Hardcore mode of New Vegas, even using 5 states and scales of 250 points. But the food and water requisites even in the slower preset are crazy, I'll quote myself from The Nexus forums:

Hi, first of all great mod, the hardcore mode of New Vegas was for me a great gameplay addition, and it adds a lot for immersion and the survival aspect for the game. But IMO your mod clearly has balance issues, I've been playing a bit with it and even with the slower preset (80-90 hours in the book) it seems that after 17 hours more or less your character has spent around 250 points of hunger / dehydration. So if you take into account the values of food and water, you need in this case like 5 jugs of water and around 15 food items (or less if you use the 30 point ones) to maintain your character for 17 hours. Its a crazy amount lol (and it isnt the default preset!) Its a matter of opinion of course, but I think if you set by default the 80-90 hour option, and multiply the hunger and hydration values of the items by three, it would be a decent balance. In that case you would need each 17 hours 2 jugs of water and 5 food items, something reasonable and balanced with the gameplay and realism aspect of the game.
