Familiar Faces is awesome. One feature I like is that you can set your alt character to a class if they're your main's follower, but I'm not sure what some of them are: Default, Assassin, Barbarian, Conjurer, Mage (Destruction), Mage (Elemental), Mage (Necromancer), Monk, Mystic, Nightblade, Nightengale, Ranger, Rogue, Scout, Sorcerer, Spellsword, Thief, Warrior (1H), Warrior (2H), Witchblade. I have a pretty good idea of most of them, but what are Mystic, Nightengale, and Witchblade? And what's the difference between Ranger/Scout and Rogue/Thief behaviors?

I'm afraid to use any ENBs because my rig is getting a bit old. Are there any that don't cause much/any performance hits?Agents are GO! posted:Everything by EnaiSiaion, and Forgotten Magic, as is Midas Magic Redone (avoid Midas Magic Expanded though, its poo poo) is pretty sweet. SPERG alone makes casting much more fun. Lunchmeat Larry fucked around with this message at 19:57 on Sep 2, 2014 |

There's a mod that ups saturation (no .ini fuckery necessary) that isn't resource intensive.

The one where you install it and then just flick the DON'T gently caress WITH THE GRAPHICS switch from 0 to 1.

Maybe mod related: Is there any way to make popup text in the upper left corner linger for a longer period of time? I find that most mods that put text up there (like frostfall) seem to only be there for a brief second or so before fading out, which sometimes is hard to catch what it all says.

So if anyone was curious, the text bugs I mentioned earlier weren't from a mod, I think. A little while ago I encountered an "Elvem Greatsword", so I can safely say that some object chosen at random has the fifth character "reduced by one" at some random time. Does Skyrim use ASCII? But anyways, I think it can safely be concluded to be some bizarre transient engine bug. I guess it could also be a scripting thing -- I know scripts can change things' names, like with Silver Hand radiant quests transforming bandits -- but it would be effectively impossible to diagnose where this specific weird problem came from.

I have a quick question/request about SPERG: I noticed I wasn't getting any quest rewards, and I was trying to figure out why, so I dug around in the source code and found code:

Isn't quest reward stuff an option in the MCM?

Zeron posted:Isn't quest reward stuff an option in the MCM? It is, but the idea is that the scripting explicitly says to pick the skill point to be rewarded among the skills which are less than 100. But if all of my skills are above 100, then none of my skills are eligible for a quest reward skill point.

So I unistalled Skyrim last year and just recently reinstalled it. All my modsi left laying on my computer work fine and I've even tacked on 10 more. Pretty sweet if you ask me.

Cantorsdust posted:I have a quick question/request about SPERG: To change it just change the 100 to whatever you raised the cap to and then compile that script. To do that open the CK (no need to load any mods) and then the script manager and type in part of the name in the box to search. Then right click > compile script. Making it into an MCM would be doable but Skyrim's crazy glitchyness won the battle again Seorin.

It's brand new and I don't plan on using it so I can't attest to its usefulness, and its effects are automatic.

Should have left my ENB alone now I've had to reinstall for real and the new ENB I have right now is giving me insane graphic glitches. Anything you guys think I might have hosed up? Dropped the ENB dll and its files into the Skyrim Folder, got CoT and ELFX, grabbed Project ENB and everything seemed fine on install but when I go outside its just like my graphics card is melting.

Did you grab the updated version of ProjectENB? How about the updated enb binaries? IIRC the guy behind Project said that it wouldn't be compatible with modern enb versions (anything above .201 I think)

Frostfall question: Is it right for my cold meter to be staying at 50% while in a snowstorm, but sitting next to a fire in a fur tent? Placing the fire it was yellow (not blue) so I figured it would warm the tent, but I am getting the message saying that the fire isn't fully warming me. Is something broken?

verbal enema posted:Ok I'm getting ready to install an ENB. BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING WITH THE ROOT SKYRIM FOLDER, MAKE AN ENTIRE COPY OF THE CLEAN INSTALL AND PUT IT SOMEWHERE ELSE AND LABEL IT AS SUCH.

Okay, I'm pretty hardware-ignorant, so I need some help and this is probably the best place I can ask. I was just given a gtx-580 by a Nexus user, since I mentioned that one of the two very old GTS-240s I had in this computer died. Now, I thought it would work, but now I realize I dont have an 8-pin Power-Supply plug in my computer. Does anyone here have any experience using something like this to get the required power?

Decided to get back into Skyrim after a couple years away, got some questions. Are there any Skyrim.ini tweaks I'd want to do that would improve the game with no downsides? I want to just stumble on tons of new things and wonder if they were vanilla or mod added, anyone have some quest and dungeon recommendations?

Sometimes I wonder if some dungeon I found is modded or vanilla...and I don't even use quest/dungeon mods. Skyrim dungeon quality..not very good.

On a new character, I went into Riverwood, recruited Faendal, and headed over toward his house. He didn't follow, but the fight music started playing. I went into his house and the fight music continued inside, then a boar started attacking me inside his house, so I killed it. I left his house and a courier came up to me and delivered me Faendal's will, saying he had died and left everything to me.

Nah, a fur tent should let you warm up fully if I member. If there is a cutoff, it's definitely not -50. Sometimes Frostfall stops updating exposure, I'd just use the reset in the mod menu.

Got modded skyrim up and running thanks to this thread! A few (hopefully final) questions- I'm using the Project Reality ENB settings and it incoporates the Depth of Field that blurs out everything I'm not actively staring at. It seems kinda annoying? Do you tend to play with it on, or just switch it on for scenic shots? What can I do to disable it? Grumio fucked around with this message at 12:31 on Sep 4, 2014 |

I am having an issue with a mod that I think may require me to uninstall the mod, clean my save game, and reinstall the mod again. What program should I use to clean my saved games and how do they work? Specifically, am I risking them breaking things in my save? I will create a back up of course but I am nervous because something might break and I may not realize it until much later.

The ground and 12v wires are flipped. Other than that, just make sure that you've got the power spread out across different PSU rails if you can. You can also get 1/2x 6-pin to 8pin adapters if you look hard enough.

Sometimes Frostfall stops updating exposure, I'd just use the reset in the mod menu. Figured out that I had to actually use my bedroll to be considered "in" the tent I guess. While I'm sitting or lying on the bedroll I warm up, if I'm just crouched in the tent, I cool down. This is how it's supposed to work, yes?
