Riverside Lodge is definitely the best housing mod, in my opinion. It's small without feeling cramped, it's got a lot of stuff without feeling busy or cluttered, it's got auto-sorting, and the smithing room has actual ventilation so you don't die of smoke inhalation.

I'm trying to optimize skyproc since people report it running out of memory but I don't have a huge mod setup to test it against. Is anyone with a 240ish mod setup willing to zip up the esm/esps along with your plugins.txt and send them to me?

I keep seeing various mods mention things to support more followers, like some say up to 15 or something? Is there a good reason to do this, like is having a whole adventuring crew of bethesda NPCs fun or is it more annoying than anything else? I mean I guess there's carrying capacity but I'd just as soon use a horse + enchanted backpack rather than have a whole posse

I find it more annoying than fun since followers aren't that dynamic even with Extended Follower Framework (which allows up to 99, I think?), but there is something to be said for having a mob murder anything that looks at you funny, I suppose.

It helps out in the early game when you're going to be one-shot killed but once I got to level 20ish I just use a healer and Inigo. It'd be an odd game experience if I got rid of Inigo.

If you use ASIS and make it spawn tons of enemies it can be fun to watch massive (well, massive for a Bethesda game) battles play out. Just keep Unrelenting Force hotkeyed in case you run into doors (read: always). I usually run with 3 or 4 companions. Interesting NPCs is useful here, also.

I like being able to run with 2-3 followers; it feels more like a traditional RPG party and since I'm usually playing some sort of glass cannon + using Higher Level Enemies it's nice to have an extra guy or two between my character and that pack of deathlords. More than that and yeah, good luck getting through any doors. Plus I think the extra features of EFF (dunno about the others, haven't used them) are useful enough I'd keep it even if I didn't want a posse.

Does anybody know where I can find some documentation on the AI combat behaviours? In Extended Follower Framework, you can change your followers' fighting style. In Familiar Faces, you have access to even more fighting styles for your characters. Thing is, while some of them are self-explanatory (One/Two-Handed Warrior, Destruction Mage), some others could be anything (Barbarian, Assassin). If anybody knows of any resources that explains those things in detail, I'd appreciate a link!

RE: available followers I got a little bored with the usual crowd but didn't feel like adding a bunch of modded followers since so many of them are somebody's waifu or Gary Stu RP character, so I've been using The B-Team + the recommended extras which lets you make pretty much any NPC into a follower. Right now I'm playing through the Civil War as an Imperial so I recruited Captain Metilius (unusued NPC added back into the game by...something, don't remember) to give him something to do besides bum around Solitude all day. I've also used it to recruit an entire squad of generic Imperials added by Immersive Patrols who followed me around for a while before despawning (achieved by recruiting their captain, not all of them individually). Another little fun thing: I did Noster's quest and then recruited him as a follower so that I could change his clothes to something nicer and give him a new place to live. Unfortunately when I upgraded EFF he ended up back on the street but he kept his new duds at least.

SPERG is compatible with Complete Crafting Overhaul Remade and Weapons and Armor Fixes Remade, and should be compatible with helpful Blacksmiths.

Ron Paul Atreides posted:vvv : fighting styles for your character? how does that work? It's Skyrim's way of deciding how an NPC fights (dual wielding, sword and shield, two-handed, sword and spell, only spells, etc). It's irrelevant for the player. When using Familiar Faces, you can set the combat behavior of any characters you've imported into a game, which are technically your characters, but they are treated as NPCs in the game into which they were imported.

I remember it mentioning that it does in CCO. I don't want to bother with crafting armor myself mostly, just want to hire NPCs to do it so my character doesn't have to learn it. But obv still want to get better armor. I guess I could get a skill caper to make sure my character never becomes a master Smith from melting down dwemer plates. Oh, that's another question, Morrowloot. That disables crafting recipes for the player, would it do the same for NPCs, so fuckong over the helpful blacksmith stuff?

CCO has has the option to give Smithing experience from smelting and tanning, but I think it's disabled by default. It also adds the option to gain Smithing experience from mining, so you might want to make sure that's disabled if you don't want your Smithing level to increase. SPERG doesn't do anything but add breakdown recipes.

And if you enable smithing experience for smelting and tanning, it should affect all recipes at smelters and tanners - so you would get experience for SPERG salvage. So don't check those boxes if you don't want experience.

Oh, anyone have a good house mod suggestion for a witchdoctor character? My Perkus run so far has been as a female Redguard named Nansi. The name came about when I was looking through the presets and found a model with her particular warpaint, but as I played it made a lot more sense. You see Nansi spawned as a Stormcloak soldier just in time to hear, "Think you're in the wrong place, friend." She took that to heart. And his heart, too. After deserting, she ran afoul of some Forsworn where she picked up a headdress that, well: It kinda ties the whole character together, and she hasn't taken it off once in fifteen levels. So this poison-brewing curse jockey needs a place for her and her beloved bonemen to relax when they aren't romping around marshes. Edit: vvv Now I need to find a band shirt mod for when I finally get the ability to dress my skeletons. Kraven Moorhed fucked around with this message at 00:54 on Nov 19, 2014 |

Just finished downloading the Legendary edition off Steam and I had a couple questions before I jumped into the modding. What version of the game is the Steam edition? A couple mods I glanced at said they only supported specific versions and a Google search brought up multiple answers. I saw a flood of weapon and armor mods available, but most seem to suffer from the common fantasy trope of having the best gear look ornate and tacky as gently caress. I've always preferred the simple look of your starting gear like the iron and steel tier since it actually looks like something people would fight with. Are there any mods that keep that sort of aesthetic? Or keeps the basic gear viable throughout the game? While I enjoyed the homestead building of Hearthfire on Xbox, I always thought it was too limited. Any mods out there that go whole hog on the stronghold building? Ideally I'd like to eventually grow it into a new settlement with a castle inhabited by guards, blacksmiths, merchants, peasants, etc. Anything out there this big in scope? What would be the best mod to use regarding the Civil War? A couple years ago I heard of one that allowed you to end it by crowning yourself High King where you get to keep that bitching crown you have to hand over like a scrub in the console version. Any idea what that was?

The steam version should be whatever the latest version is I think, 1.92.6 or whatever. SPERG has some perks in the smithing tree that give bonuses to steel armor and weapons. Also 3rd era weapons has a fair amount of decent looking swords and such. Tundra Defense might be what you're looking for. Heck if I know for the civil war overhaul. I haven't figured out how to make Skyrim's combat quite that interesting to make pursuing a war worthwhile.

Bones the necromancer skeleton, who rolls with a posse of skeletons made me laugh like a moron. But I found it just made the game insanely unstable. But it also might have been the skeleton race mod that did that. And switching everyone I set to follower to the skeleton race. The followers also had a bad habit of getting stuck and bottle necking passageways and just standing in my way.
