SolidSnakesBandana posted:Skyrim strikes me as the type of game that encourages you to level every skill. It's how you get those sweet, sweet levels! Plus if you're using SPERG, every tree has something awesome for you to use that any character can benefit from. I love SPERG It's just a role playing thing, I pretend I'm only a thief so I can buy the best stuff then I end up making the best stuff, it breaks  MY EMERSON and stuff.

SirDan3k posted:I keep meaning to ask if there is a mod that does the same for enchanting? I hate that I always end up leveling enchanting even if I play a thief that has all his weapons and armor custom made. I don't know of any but I've heard talk about making them. One issue was how enchantments are made which the skse should help get around. I posted the new build of ASIS to the nexus. Hopefully it adds a new amusing glitch to make skyrim a more magical place.

Paracelsus posted:Convenient Horses mostly works for me, but I can't get the harvesting-while-riding functionality to work (and possibly the charge move, although I may just not have hit things in the right way yet). I can get the horseback talking and looting to work, but the harvesting doesn't seem to happen regardless of whether I'm using the same button or a different button as the hotkey. Any idea what might be going wrong? Harvesting from horseback is subjected to script delay, so if your script engine is getting hammered it may not work right away. That said, I find harvesting from horseback works better when you're holding the key down rather than trying to tap it. You can move while doing this so you can travel a good distance while holding the key and suddenly you have a billion more ingredients to play with. As for horse charge, maybe this comes off as obvious but it took me forever to think of, I'm pretty sure Horse charge only works if you have your weapon out.

Any recommendations on combat overhauls? I've been using SkyRe, but any mods that add new armors or weapons need compatibility patches and I'm hosed if they didn't make one. Is ACE + Duel + ASIS tweaks still the way to go, or has something else come along?

Does DUEL actually change anything? I've heard there was some testing done that proved it didn't do much of what it promised, but I heard that a long time ago so I don't remember if I'm thinking of the right mod or not.

SPERG + Resplendent Racials + Revenge of the Enemies + Higher Level Enemies + Deadly Combat/Ultimate Combat is a good combo. Of course this has ASIS involved as well, just make sure to exclude SPERG from ASIS.

Saint Sputnik posted:I think all you have to do with the charge move is have your horse be sprinting and run right into a guy. It should bowl him over and chip off a bit of health. With enough tweaks from mods to make horseback fighting actually viable it turns out it's pretty OP since no one can hit me. Can't wait for someone to mod in horseback bandits. (There was something but it's pretty old and probably outdated, never tried it.)

Two questions: 1. There was a really nice mod a few dozen pages back that added a handful of well-done, realistic long knives. I can't seem to find it, or remember what it was called. 2. If I want to back up my Mod Manager configuration to cloud storage, but don't have the room for the mods themselves, is there some subset of files under the Mod Manager installation directory that I can backup that keeps everything but the downloaded mods themselves, such that I would only need to redownload the mods (hopefully made easier by just clicking "Visit on Nexus" a lot)?

So much for tracking down the invisible sconce-torches. I decided to go ahead and try OBIS and Immersive Patrols. Taking the back road to Ivarsteadt, from Riverwood via Helgen, and right around Hamar's Shame I started running into groups of Stormcloaks. And piles of dead Imperials.  Something over a 4:1 kill ratio for the rebels, unless the two corpses I found just outside the Stormcloak camp earlier were related. Heading down from Ivarstadt the other way, I started running into bandits. And kept running At level 7.  Think I'm going to stuff in more armor/weapons sets next - I did make it to Windhelm, where it finally CTD'd. Only real issue so far (other than the torches) has been faction camps, and dropping to slideshow-mode in certain areas of the camp.

Is there anything that makes pickpocketing worth bothering with? I'm playing a fairly vanilla install right now and I got Pickpocket 100, and there's... no real point to it. All the armor I can steal is garbage. No NPCs seem to ear anything worth stealing that's not well behind the shops, and nobody except Mercer Frey's had an enchanted weapon. I am tired of swiping vendor trash.

Poisoning bitches left and right. Pretty sure it's in the vanilla too, so if your sneak's high enough you can sneak up to enemies/naseem/guards and throw paralyzing/frenzy potions in their pockets. Or just fill 'em up with those useless 3-damage poisons that you find everywhere.

So, question about TESVEdit: When there're records in one mod that aren't even being affected by other mods (like Mod A adds a scrip to an object, Mod B doesn't, but the script from A isn't in direct conflict with anything B does) are those records still used by the game, or is the whole thing just overwritten? Following from that: Is there any difference in that behavior when the records are changed by an .esm, or master file?

Poisoning people is pretty dull because if you're in town and it's not one that takes a year to go into effect, they hit you with the fine anyway. If you have enough pickpocket to do things, you probably have enough sneak, which means a dagger would outdo any poison you'd have anyway.

Raygereio posted:If multiple plugins in your loadorder edit the same record, the game uses the one from the plugin that's lowest in your loadorder. So if for example you have a Mod 1 that adds a script to Ulfric's NPC record and have a Mod 2 lower in your loadorder that edits Ulfric's NPC record to add a sweet beard to Ulfirc. The game will completely ignore Mod 1 when it comes to Ulfric's NPC record and you'll only get the sweet beard in your game. If you want the effects of both mods, you will need to make a compatibility patch that combines Mod 1's script, with Mod 2's sweet beard and load it after both Mod 1 and 2. Yeah that sounds right, I think I'm just confused by all the leveled lists that aren't even altered by mods other than my Bashed Patch that seem to not have carried over stuff from the base game files.

As of Friday I got this desktop working again and have been working furiously on Follower Commentary Overhaul. Finished transcribing the audio, and there are only five more voicetypes that need conditions applied to their commentary, and after that the mod is functionally complete. I'll add the MCM after that and release the beta here first for testing.

9/10 of the mod are technically new dialog topics even if they use vanilla audio files, and the 1/10 that overrides vanilla dialog topics don't override functional parts, and if anything EFF only makes it work better. If you've got like twenty followers I've found things get a bit annoying but the MCM slider that I plan on adding to increase or decrease the frequency should help along those lines. Bethesda made a lot of goofy design decisions but the underlying functionality of quests makes it stupidly easy to add audio to a voicetype without overriding anything. The only follower mods it doesn't work with are non-standard follower voicetypes, which would mean someone probably made idle commentary for them anyway.

So I'm getting to about 150+ mods and about 25% of them are likely compatibility patches or addons, so it's probably time for me to start making some bashed patches. Is there anything I should know about them going in? Like, will it gently caress with how BOSS loads things or can I throw all of my Climates of Tamriel stuff in to one patch and my Frostfall stuff in to another and have it load everything a-okay? e:Whoops, completely misunderstood what Wrye Bash does.

I've recently started a fresh mod install of Skyrim (again) and I'm getting some strange problems; when I kill an enemy, the corpse will often disappear instantly, or sometimes even reappear back on the spot with full health like nothing happened. Also, it seems some non-essential NPCs are flagged as essential (such as town guards). Before I start peeling back mods to figure out which one is responsible, do any of you know if there's a likely culprit?
