My biggest problem with Skyrim combat, other than than how floaty and slow it is which I think is unfixable, is that usually all the enemies in a dungeon will either be cardboard (which is boring) or giant walls of meat that can killmove you from full health (which is also boring, but in a different way). Do any of the combat mods actually fix that? Like, smooth it out a bit? Most of them just seem like they make combat baseline harder, which isn't really what I want. Also, are there any good mods that add a dodge? Dodges are fun.

I think Deadly Combat has a dodge feature, but yeah there's nothing I know of that addresses the terrible, floaty, spongey orgy that is the combat. Here's a mod that claims to make combat more like Dark Souls, but I doubt it's as effective as I hope. I have to do a big reinstall of my mods so I haven't tried it yet. TK HitStop adds artificial weight to combat by creating frame delays on hits, giving melee combat a bit more impact. Edit: There's a TK Dodge mod as well, which I'm guessing is lighter than DC FutonForensic fucked around with this message at 06:16 on Jan 7, 2015 |

That Dark Souls combat mod, if the description is to be believed, is nothing that couldn't be accomplished with SkyTweak. The toggled settings would probably be more fun and make stuff more deadly, but ultimately it looks like it'll still feel the same.

BurntCornMuffin posted:This has been my experience, too. Ultimate Combat and Deadly Combat running concurrently provides most, if not all of Duels functionality in a far more stable package. I never would have thought of Duel causing those crashes, because they weren't really connected to combat or, seemingly anything really--they were more likely to happen in town, less likely to happen in the countryside, and almost never happened in dungeons, but they were random without any real pattern, and a thing that made the game crash once would likely never make it crash again, it was something different I did each time. Ultimate Combat is not actually that different from Duel except that I use less stamina (I have 264 stamina and use a 1H sword so my stamina is nearly unlimited for all intense and purposes) from what I've seen, but most of the enemies I've fought in UC are trash Draugr and mages, and one dragon. Are Imperial soldiers with the heavy armor tough customers in every combat system, even vanilla? In Duel they could be quite formidable because they were much more likely to block and much better at blocking than most other enemies, so fighting multiple legionaries could be a nightmare where one continuously stonewalls you through nearly psychic use of the imperial heavy shield (you have to literally beat down his defenses if your timing is anything less than perfect) while three of his buddies come in from the sides and hack you to ribbons. Imperial troops make Stormcloaks like like complete pussies. Woolie Wool fucked around with this message at 07:31 on Jan 7, 2015 |

You rarely meet an enemy who takes a few good whacks to kill, they usually either go down in one hit unless you're at a low level or they're juggernauts who shrug off multiple power attacks like nothing.

Which is a shame because those enemies are the most fun to fight.

Nerd Of Prey posted:This thread got me started on installing Skyrim mods, which eventually turned into mixing & matching and altering mods, which eventually turned into making & publishing mods, some of them stupider than others. Since everybody loves a goon-made mod I figured I'd plug a couple of them here that I sort of care about. Nice work! I like fiddling with mods myself. Mostly I've just made up a bunch of utility spells I feel should have been in the game (light nightvision and teleporting and fast running and summon food) as well as rounding out the different disciplines to make it easier to level up (now alteration has offensive spells so its easier to level and more rounded, etc.) I always wanted to do a full overhaul of the skill trees to make them more like classes, but I never got around to it.

Lets be honest, the combat in Skyrim is pretty crap and its not the reason anybody plays. Reminds me of borderlands in retrospect.

We all bitch about skyrim combat, but let's not forget oblivion combat which was literally 'waggle your sword/mace at something till it falls over' Now it's 'waggle a bit slower with occasional killcams'

I always play stealth characters (with a stealth mod) so that I can feel accomplished when I'm able to clear out a camp undetected. Either that or I transform and rampage through the whole thing.

Zamboni Apocalypse posted:Wait, is there a version to hang clotheslines off Oblivion Gates? My brother told me I should make an ULTIMATE LAUNDRY IMMERSION edition where all the roads and buildings are covered with thousands of clotheslines and all the places on the map are renamed things like "Sudsmore" and "Washerwoman's Basin" and "Scrubber's Redoubt." If it wouldn't take days to do it, I totally would. I would make the name longer/sillier for the upcoming full release version, but most people on the nexus have no sense of irony... I already had a guy saying "how dare you call this immersive," emailing me with multiple wiki links to the history of washboard manufacture to tell me painted logos didn't belong in a medieval setting. I told him it boggled my mind that he can play a game with magic and dragons and ancient tombs full of robot spiders powered by the souls of dead elves, but paint on wood shatters his immersion. I get the most insane requests for elaborate features like an in-depth clothes dirtiness rating system where you lose stats if you don't give your whites a good scrubbin' every couple days, not to mention full integration with weird sex mods. Yeah I'll uhhhh get right on that, buddy.

Thanks. Sounds easy. Any bugs that I should be aware of before using this? Edit: Looks like that version of My Home is your Home in that link is outdated and someone else has been regularly updating it here. It is a bit more feature rich and now requires SKSE and SkyUI which does not bother me but might bother others. I cannot speak for the stability yet but it is still being worked on as of December 2014. Although, the author says that if this latest versions works as intended then he is done for at least a while. Xavier434 fucked around with this message at 21:49 on Jan 7, 2015 |

I installed a bunch of mods last night, and while the game starts out and runs fine, it gets stuck on the loading screen when exiting the caves under Helgen. Any way to troubleshoot besides turning mods off one by one and trial and error? Here are the mods I'm using, in addition to Project ENB:

I am not as immersed in the as the rest of you, but are you sure all of those requests are genuine and it's not also you that's lacking in irony? Also you should totally put a functioning iron in your laundry mod and name it irony.

I'm using Frostfall and Realistic Needs & Diseases, which really adds a lot and puts some brakes on the game so I can stop and smell the 2048x2048 roses, as well as making me having to get prepared for longer journeys, so I am actually planning my trips out of cities which is pretty cool, I might even disable fast travel and use the carriages to travel long distance. The problem I'm having, and its probably just me being an idiot, is that I can't figure out how to get a cooking pot going when setting up camp so I can't actually be self sufficient out in the wilderness because I have to find a static cooking pot to cook up my venison and boil my river water. Apparently, the campfire made with survival skills from RN&D is supposed to include a cooking pot if there is a cast iron pot in the inventory, but I can't figure out which one will work.

Figured out my issue, I was trying to use a RN&D feature with a Frostfall-created fire. Frostfall has its own cooking pot though that can be made a forge with two steel ingots and can be placed like the Tanning Rack. It's also very particular about placing it right next to the fire for it to work.

In addition to what others said, I recommend that you go through Helgen without any mods activated or an absolute minimal number of mods. Helgen is heavily scripted and has a tendency to mess things up even with mods that are stable otherwise. Once you leave the cave, you can turn all of your mods back on.

Helgen is great for watching General Tullius, having captured the rebel leader and being moments away from ending the war, hop off his horse and chasing after a wolf that walked past.

Hell just the carriage ride at the start takes FOREVER, much less the scripted dragon escape. Play through the start normally once, then use alternate-start for all your other new characters. Never again.

At the very least, download a savegame that starts you right at character creation, after the carriage ride.
