And now today - my birthday - AMD deciced to provide me with proper drivers for my 7970's (12.1) first thing as I wake up... how nice is that!
Edit - then the first thing I see on the Nexus is this... Heavenly Legion Armor so nice!
Did you see my post about the Russian mod site? How dou you download from there?

I love the potion weight mod. The way vanilla works, and the number of individually listed potions made potion/poisen management completely untenable.

Lol, no search function. Workshop is currently useless.

Sorry haven't seen it yet... going back over the last couple of pages now.
I haven't had perfect luck with the Russian site mods, I've had to often edit the .esp's myself because the name's of the items are in Russian. Sometimes this causes CTD depending on the item, however with the CK it's working better for me.
I'll find your post.
Edit - can't find the one you're talking about, but still looking atm.

This is really how it should have been implemented in the first place :/
work continues (and by continues I mean just started) on my triss companion mod. Basically waiting for permission to use the outfit then I'll upload something. Haven't got the face yet, but I got her wearing the right outfits and she'll follow you when you ask her to
either going to use this

or this
http://static.skyrim.nexusmods.com/downloads/images/5917-2-1326273091.jpg
for the face.
Dude that's freaking awesome... I love it! I hope you can get her voice as well? I love Triss! I have a couple of Triss posters on my wall
I only wish that the combat system in Skyrim was a little bit more difficult like it is in the Witcher 2 and it would pretty much be my favorite game ever. It's already pretty much my No. 2 behind Witcher 2.Edit - fixed correct quote - thanks brus

Does starting via skse sync up workshop mods just like when starting via steam?

As long as you first go into the Skyrim Launcher, download the mods and make sure they are selected in the 'Data Files' part.
I would suggest downloading a program like Mod Organiser and using that to organise your .esp's and integrating any mods outside the Workshop with that program, then use the SKSE integration of Mod Organiser and launch SKSE through MO.
If that doesn't make sense, ask more and I'll try explain better.

I prefer NMM.
And the way you describe it, workshop becomes even more useless.

Or you could use Hvergelmirs one and it could looks like this:
BTW guys... with regards to using the High-Res Texture pack, SONOS said that you need to put those few bits of information in your skyrim.ini file.
There is some more to that...
I would suggest that EVERY SINGLE PERSON HERE TO DO THIS!!!! Because this puts the Bethesda High Res Texture Pack at the LOWEST priority in the load order. They have re-textured a bunch of textures that really needed to be done, however I am keeping ALL of my high res texture packs and just putting these in the background. Personally I feel this is really how the textures should have looked for the PC from the very beginning, but at least they are there now. I also think that this is how Bethesda should have released the textures (as an optional patch) rather than in the form of a 'mod' style upgrade because it's going to clash with so many things.
Get it out of the way now and never look back.

How do I make nights and interiors in Realistic Lighting brighter like vanilla? I know there are variables for this in the INI but there's so many I don't know what to do.
In Steam go to Community > View Workshop Files > Subscribed Items
Pretty neat.
I like how you can unsubscribe and keep the mod so you don't have to worry about an update breaking things. Especially with new houses where a change in chests can cause you to lose stuff.
edit: another great thing is how small a lot of the mods are

Guys, is there any easy way to uninstall all the mods I installed manually, rather than doing each one by one?

Any reason why I have to launch the game through SKSE to make SkyUI work? I don't remember having to do the same with NVSE on New Vegas, is this going to be changed any time soon? It sucks because if you launch through SKSE you don't get the workshop updates.

I can't even load data in the Creation Kit without it freezing up, giving me an error, then freezing up again. What the hell is going on.
EDIT: No wait, it just acts like a jerk and pretends it's freezing.

Kinda why you should have used NMM
But just delete all your folders in the Data folder apart from Interface, Strings and Video. You can then verify game cache with steam to get back any important files you may have lost.
Some features require SKSE but I don't bother. Sky UI still works fine.

I'm a bit confused on how these mods work. By subscribing, it automatically downloads and it will start running when I run the game? I subscribed to SkyUI and installed SKSE but everything is still the same.
ColonialRaptor

Just delete 'textures' and 'meshes' if possible... that's the best way.
Yes. When you load up the game through Steam, on the bottom right of the launcher you should see the mod download progress.
Everything is automatic. You can double check if they're enabled by clicking on Data Files in the launcher.
I suppose it depends on what mods you have.
The three folders I mentioned are the vanilla ones though.

Mod synching should happen in steam, not in the launcher. I'd hate a having a large HD mod update, the moment I want to play.

Short explanation of the issue I had with that Russian site.
I can't read Russian where is the download link?
Sweet!
Not sure if you can just start without waiting for the download.
I think you can unsubscribe from updates and still keep the mod so that would fix the problem.
The worst thing is there not being a search feature. Pretty fucking important!

Are you using google translate?
Download link is circled.
Yoinkes. Sir I was not
Didn't even think of it thanks. Duh. And do you have to register?Got my first mod done. Added a mini dragon as a follower. Pyrite. Working so far but still testing before submission. Got my mini dragon roar recorded hahahahaha. Sounds like an angry squirrel. Can't wait to upload it.
I've been using this and you are so right. It was very difficult to gather much loot becuase of the weight of hte potions weighing you down. The one I use is based on the size/potency of the potion from .1 - .5. Crafted potions are always .1 though.

Nice! Link me this Mini Dragon Follower - I don't have that! Sounds cool as.
Don't have to register.
Edit - BTW ppl if you're using 'Open Cities' and you haven't gotten very far in the game I suggest you turn it off because it's hard to remove it and it breaks quests.
Does anyone have experience with the Midas magic mod?
It seems enjoyable, but I'd like to know if it is fully compatible with the workshop or if some features are lost.

If I subscribe to a mod, will it update it whenever a new version is pushed out automatically?
Detailed Cities looks good, but he's only done 50% of one city so far. If I have to keep re-downloading I might wait.

Yep, when a new version is put out, the Workshop automatically downloads and updates the mod. Awesome, eh?

Ya I will Post "Pyrite the Mighty!" Mini Dragon Follower Mod. As soon as I can.
I am trying to clean up his follow pattern in some way.
I also am posting my first "Lost Dragon" mod this weekend. 7 Elemental Dragons each in their own lair each with specific weaknesses and background story. The first is in a massive...MASSIVE underground swampy lair. Imagine Smog in The Hobbit but the lair is big enough for a bit of flying and landing. Hoping to clean him up tonight and also trying to clean up holes in the lair architecture is a bitch.

I will for sure. Bethesda didn't really prepare for massive caverns like I wanted. Dragonslayer(the movie) style. So its been a bit hard identifying leaks and such. Then I have to hammer down the 7 elements, 1 per dragon, and their breath weapons. So far its been pretty easy and I am on time.
Really a hats off to Bethesda. Great editor really.
Also hold off on Midas Magic if I were you guys. That mod needs some cooking, and it should because its aim is VERY high.

Are you talking about a weird "view" stuttering that occurs when you drag your mouse around? Because if that's what you're talking about I've had that for some time and it's driving me insane. I've noticed it happens when you're looking in certain directions, as if the game is having problems rendering something with the lighting.
