This sounds like something that I would like.

SPERG has a feature where if you eat a lot of food then it periodically increases your stats right? I thought I saw something like that in the settings but I am not in a position the verify it right now. If that is the case then will it work with the new cooking recipes that Gromit adds?

I'm not sure, I've never really used SPERG more than a little.

I think it depends on how SPERG does it, I could see it going both ways but regardless if you just load Gromits afterwards it would be fine (unless you specifically want both then crack open TES5Edit).

Really I don't know why it's not in the OP :colbert:

SPERG still did it's food thing when I used Realistic Needs and Diseases. I once leveled up Alchemy by refilling empty bottles (RND empty bottles are counted as food items that disappear and add full bottles to your inventory when "eaten"). I don't really know this stuff, as far as I know SPERG will detect any mod foods but might not increase the right stats depending on the method used to determine such things. If they're done with keywords, it would probably be trivial to make a compatibility patch.

I use a combination of:
-Belt Fastened Quivers - Changes the location of quivers for Frostfall to avoid massive clipping, and also changes the bow shooting animation
-Pretty Combat Idles - For a more relaxed one-handed idle animation
-YY Zweihander - for the two handed "over the shoulder" idle
-YY Mystic Knight and New Magic Casting Animations - for smoother and more visually pleasing magic casting animations
-Immersive Animations - For general animation improvements.

YY Animation Replace - Mystic Knight + Immersive Animations is what I use to replace the animations and it's very nice. It's excellent for just having one spell active + weapon, but all of them are nice.

It's also customizable, so you can turn off the retarded weapon spin thing.

Ah, you have encountered the fearsome low poly dragon.
The game has a glitch where it can fail to load the normal mesh of an object, and it gets stuck with the lod mesh. Dragon are the primary victim of this.
Quicksaving and loading should fix it. Alternatively, there's a mod called "No Dragon LODs" on the nexus that removes the lod models from dragons, forcing the game to always use their normal model.

After having wasted nearly 2 entire days trying to get Skyrim to work well with Nexus Manager and ENB my life was a disaster. I came here and asked and goons pointed me in the direction of Mod Organizer. I'm about 15-20 hours in and have had no CTD except in Whitehelm due to the open cities mod (known bug I guess) and haven't had anything unusual happen that has caused my game to become corrupt or anything of the sort.

That being said I can NOT for the life of me get SMIM to work with ELFX when using Mod Manager. Even when creating a new profile and only choosing the default items (such as climate of tamriel, enhanced lightning and fx, unofficial patches) and using the "SMIM ELFX fix" the SMIM meshes never ever throw shadows and are basically in fullbright mode. I am using realvision ENB but that being said it is just enbseries so the ENB I'm using shouldn't matter that much. I tried with my main profile (over 80+ mods) and a brand new profile where all I do is choose ELFX, SMIM, and the SMIM ELFX fix. Has anyone had this problem? Reading online I can't find anyone with this issue.

Thanks again goons, game looks amazing. This is how it currently looks for me.



I'm very happy with how the game looks but not being able to use SMIM kinda sucks.

This is just a wild-rear end guess but it looks like theres a character in between "Iron" and "Arrow" that would appear as a space in most windows fonts but shows up as one of those squares in the Skyrim font. If you're sure there's not an issue with Skyrim itself, maybe there's an issue with your strings files?

It also might be an issue if somebody got the ASCII/Unicode/Whatever-the-gently caress messed up when changing a name in a mod, but the fact that you had something wrong with another in-game name leads me to believe that it might be something more all-encompassing. Whats your load order?

Feel like firing up Skyrim again, can someone recommend mods that deal with my packrat behavior:

Something that lets me dump my excess items somewhere/with someone so they'll get sold off automatically and I can pick up money later. I always wish I could strike a deal with the Khajiit caravan so they can sell my stuff for me.

Something that organizes containers way better, even Oblivion sorted items far better than this game.

In the SPERG Speech tree, there's a perk called Animal Friend, which gives you a pet. You can give your excess items to it and tell it to sell them.

For containers, I would try either General Stores with its companion mod Craftable Cloud Storage for quick and easy storage and sorting, or Arod's Better Containers for a more fine-tuned, customizable option. There are a few nice house mods that include General Stores for storage, as well.

The best Auto Sorting I've ever seen is in Amethyst Hollows Dreamworld. It actually gives you a spell which acts as a container that transfers everything you put in it it into containers in the Dreamworld home. The home has two containers for each item type that actually share the same "pool" of items, one is somewhere appropriate in the house (ingot and hide container in armory, for example) and then there's a closet with every container for quick access. This doesn't help you sell them at all but it makes getting rid of poo poo on the road easier. It's a shame no one adapted it for general use.

Edit: Looks like Arods Better Containers does this! Nevermind! drat this is what I've been looking for. Thanks!

I should have taken the Form ID when I took that screenshot, because now it's not happening and I don't know if it just spontaneously fixed itself or I'm looking at the wrong *type* of Iron Arrow. It looks fine in my inventory, dropped on the ground, and fired into things. Except that last one doesn't show damage/weight/value, although the one in the screenshot was fired at me too, so I don't even know. I'd check the strings file, but there are several and all in BSAs that I can't be bothered to extract.

Disable all mods, see if crash persists. If yes, your savegame is most likely hosed, if no:
Enable mods one by one until you find the one that's crashing. Either figure out why its crashing or delete it.

Alt: Maybe using too much memory, the Rift is notorious for memory usage.

The brightness in ENB keeps reverting to a higher value.

When I get imaginator working it looks like this (notice the normal colors :P)



It was weird, it didn't work it didn't work and then I Cranked up a bunch of settings and closed out and came back and all of a sudden my brightness was super intense. Is there any particular reason why Imaginator isn't working that anyone could think of? Also why can't I use ELFX with SMIM meshes? These are the most two annoying things about the game for me.

Something is wrong with your Realvision install then. What graphics card are you using?

As for the SMIM/ELFX problem there should be a how-to on making sure they're compatible in either the SMIM page or the ELFX page. Though, the SMIM meshes for ELFX *might* be outdated a bit.
