Agents are GO! posted:SPERG has two issues with its installer: it doesn't put the Uncapper.ini in the proper place, and it doesn't automatically move the DLC patches out of the optional folder. This fact along with a short step by step tutorial on how to fix the problem manually after installing SPERG is worth putting in the OP since so many people come to this thread and end up using SPERG.

What are your favorite magic mods? I like SPERG, but the game desperately needs more spells, which SPERG doesn't really provide, and I'm worried that other mods that add spells might combine with SPERG's scaling mechanism to throw the game balance completely off the rails. Also I installed a bunch of mods and got a really cool modified Lesser Ward spell for the Restoration tree that essentially acts as a hypothetical Bound Shield. What mod did that come from? I'm guessing Immersive Armors? Are there stronger variants of it?

Do any weapon mods have one-handed hammers? I think my next character will be an itinerant smith and I want him to smash heads with his work tools. I thought about just giving him a warhammer but I don't really like playing 2H. I'm not using any mods that add weapons currently, just that one that makes swords less fat and clunky so I'd preferably want to use one that gets along with that. fake edit: I found this, is this pretty much it or are there other options? One Handed Warhammers

MaliciousOnion posted:I used to get rainbow polygons, as well as other graphical glitches. I figured out it was because I had set AA and AF to off in the main SkyrimPrefs.ini but hadn't realised Mod Organizer uses its own SkyrimPrefs.ini file, which needs to be changed through MO. Huh. Okay, the Project ENB installation said nothing about disabling AF. Doing that didn't kill off the polygons, but it kept the game running long enough to make a default Nord:   Uh, well at least I think it's a Nord. Looks like it IS my ENB, as the game looks fine without it. With it enabled, though, I started seeing this when I spawned in: It changed depending on the angle I was looking at (things I looked at directly would generally be loaded), and eventually I CTDed. I have two suspicions: 1: Since the things further from my cursor were generally the things that would unload and simply pointing at them would usually reload them, maybe there's some Depth of Field issue that I need to figure out. 2: Prior to this install, I had been running an ENB in the past (I think an old version of Project?) which I later installed the speedhack over. Did the same for this one since, unless there's a method I'm unaware of, MO can only apply things to the Data directory. How should I go about clearing out my old ENB stuff? Do I need to wipe my Skyrim directory to be sure I got everything?

IIRC, Weaponizer adds combat hammers, which are one-handed. They don't look much like hammers a smith would use, though.

Thanks for the suggestions! I'd looked at Heavy Armory before but just wasn't that interested in adding spears and whatnot and looks like Weaponizer also adds that kind of stuff. This mod came up when I searched for hammers as well and they're all just a little more extensive than what I was hoping to find. I was kinda hoping to run across something that let you swing around the clutter hammer as a weapon (or something styled like it). edit: found exactly that with a more general search. Tools and other clutter as weapons: http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/58769/ http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/32370/ Stand-alone, unenchanted hammers: http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/31495/ http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/50412/ And for something totally unrelated the team bow shooting in this mod sounds like fun if you run with a posse.

Supposedly a few people were working on adding spear animations, but I don;t know how that's going. It's supposedly very hard to add new, additional attack animations (or something) for some reason.

I saw something that added a polearm animation in place of the greatsword animation which uh...seems like a poor solution since you still end up with a weapon class with a funky animation.

There's a mod called Character Behaviors Enhanced that's trying to get around that problem. It's still a work in progress, though, and last time I checked, the new animations only worked in third person (though they've said they'll eventually make them work in first person).

If I alter respawn time with a bashed patch to a lot of nines, it rolls over to -10000.00. I assume this is "never respawn", but does it also stop the regular corpse despawner from running? I want to despawn corpses normally, just prevent every single respawn anywhere in the world. (There's a poorly described mod that separates all the timers out, so I know it can be done, but I don't know if it's a native thing.) e: And totally unrelated, would it be possible to make a mod that makes pickpocketed items count towards the Thieves Guild Bedlam jobs? It only counts Steal and not Pickpocket, and it also seems to not count stealing from some containers, but not all. There doesn't seem to be any mod out there that does that - only one that lets you alter the total amount needed for the job. DACK FAYDEN fucked around with this message at 04:18 on Jan 23, 2015 |

Will that make my game suck, and if so, how?  Okay, all new folks. My improved ASIS INIs are designed for two things:1.) Out-of-the-box Compatibility with every mod they can be, including SPERG and all other overhauls. 2.) To add as many new spawns as possible over the vanilla ASIS INIs. The vanilla ASIS INIs are set up only for vanilla no-DLC skyrim, and very conservatively at that. You'll get very few new spawns with the vanilla INIs compared to mine. poo poo, even the current author of ASIS recommends trying my INIs. Also, even if you don't use ASIS or my INIs, you should have a merged patch. It's simple as hell and prevents headaches. Edit: Not trying to put words in LtSmash's mouth. Just getting a little frustrated with all the "How do I fix ASIS problem Agents are GO! fixed months ago?!?!" posts.

Something you might want to check out that I just found myself is Bound Elemental Weapons. Adds 50 cost bound weapon spells for each of the elements as well as light and dark. "Sun (Light) Weapons are leveled with your Restoration skill, as well as increase your restoration magic when used and cast." One of the weapons is a one handed morningstar. There's also Bound Mage and Paladin Armors by the same author. "-Sun Aura to deal 5 Sunlight dmg to the undead in combat range -Immunity to disease -Paladin's shield (Solar Shield) can bash the undead with an explosion of sunlight!"  Both require Dawnguard for the sun spell attributes.

I think I have my mods finally set up (lol) and everything seems to be running well. The weapon damages feel normal, but I noticed that the stats are scaled weird. Armor ranges from 20-40 but weapons are 1-4. So a Steel Sword will say 2 damage, and a helmet will say 16 armor. Again, punching a bandit in the face with a giant axe does what looks like appropriate damage, I just don't know why my weapon stats got so squished. I have morrowloot set up, sperg, loot and degradation, and god knows what else. I don't want to spam the thread with my gigantic load order, but does anyone know which popular out there does this to weapon and armor stats? I didn't change up my mod set up except add appropriate compatibility patches and tightening it up, so I'm stumped as to what caused this change.

I can't really tell why this would happen just based on load order. Actually, my first thought is that it might be a skill issue. I think that the displayed value of armor protection and weapon damage factors in your relevant skill, but even then, I don't think you could have a One-Handed weapon skill so low it takes 75% of a steel sword's damage away... If I were in your position, this is where I'd open op TES5Edit and see what conflicts there are for the weapons.

Agents are GO! posted:Install the Improved ASIS INIs and don't worry about it. Its true. Agent's inis are really thorough and cover tons of mods. The basic ones were really meant to be a basic starting place since Plutoman (the original ASIS author) figured neither he nor anyone else could hope to keep up to date with the popular mods so he wasn't even gonna try. Agents are go! proved  overcomes all and made INIs that cover everything but a goon could want. I haven't checked if they support the weird fetish mods but I'd give it a 50/50.And yeah make a merged patch. It makes mods work together much better and is simple to make. 1) Open your load order in tesVedit and wait for it to say done. 2) Right click in the left window and choose other > create merged patch. 3) Press okay then name it something like Merged Patch and hit okay again. 4) wait for it to finish then quit and save it.

Also, to anyone doing this for the first time: it's tedious and boring but if you feel like taking the time, it's possible to build on this by manually resolving any conflicts this does not catch (which will likely be quite a few).
