It was, but it looks like he put it back after Mator and his team caved to demands. Give em and inch, and they take a mile...

Also, I'm pretty sure that guy works on TTW (he at the very least made a ton of mod patches for it), and had a similar meltdown when people kept complaining his version of Darn UI wasn't compatible with oHud (which he of course blamed Gopher for)/has issue with Pipboy replacers. Dude very much seems of the mindset "it works on my setup, maybe you're just dumb and bad".

Yeah, though it's much more pressing if your running a game with a lot of quest and follower mods (like I was; I ended up burning that profile to the ground and started anew).

It's hilarious that mod authors think that they can control users and what users do on their machines when multiple millions (billions?) of dollars have been spent by massive companies and governments trying to do it. If The RIAA can't do it the Nexus can't. If users want to play content that's been created they will and there isn't a goddamned thing they can do about it, the least mod authors can do is recognize that the only reason they have any say or respect is because users gave it to them, it isn't inherent.

The devil you say!

I've started getting an annoying sound bug in interior cells where it sounds like physics objects are colliding over and over, this is happening in multiple cells and I can't locate any actual objects that seem to be bugging out inside each other. Anyone had this? Google suggests it's something to do with frame rate, but ipresentinterval is set to 1 in the ini so I don't know.

Edit: Huh, fraps says I'm getting like 100 fps even though vsync is supposedly on, turned it on in nvidia options and it seems to be fixed.

Did I misread all the signs?
Is there anything better than the 1000-year old Brawl Bugs patch? My mods seem to have permanently destroyed any chance of brawling even with the BBP. Every single fight turns into a psychotic duel to the death, even if I never throw a punch. I'm sure it's some background magic effect that is running and is being tripped by the awful, awful brawl system. I'd even just settle for a console command to win a brawl. I tried using 'kill' on enemies as soon as the brawl begins, and they take a knee then die a few seconds later as I'm talking with them to try and finish the brawl.

Sometimes it's just a matter of trimming the fat, my man. I was having brawl bugs that wouldn't go away, compatability from sperg and the vampire mod I was using didn't help, the fix didn't help, in the end the solution was getting rid of a mod that makes you leave footprints, as I guess it had some kind of persistent effect on the player?

For the millionth time, install the brawl bugs cheat patch and be happy - it's even in the OP. Brawls are fragile and poorly scripted. Just Install the cheat patch.

In a way I can't help but enjoy it when brawls break because I always get treated to a killer suplex or the like.

Also 2handers with SPERG at high levels are annoying because I keep killing my follower :black101:

Wyrmstooth-dude removed his mod for whatever reason. Someone still wanted it and was sent to the mod piracy subreddit.

Those eyes ... they disappeared.
I recently installed Dogs Of Skyrim, Better Stealth AI for Followers and SkyTweak and a few hours later, my framerates drop through the floor in big battles.

Uninstalling SkyTweak made no difference. I'm tempted to say 'screw it' and uninstall all my follower mods (since they still just get in the drat way when I'm sneaking - and followers have definitely started acting weird): the two above, Immersive Horses and Immersive Amazing Follower Tweaks. Obviously I'm planning to follow the respective readme procedure, and keep the mods installed (just disabled), in case this fucks up my poo poo. Has anyone done this mid-playthrough, and know how likely is it to gently caress up my poo poo?

Installing SPERG is also very tempting, ... so I guess same question adding it midgame? Just discovered this thread and so far I've only caught up on the first 50-odd pages.

Can provide a full list of installed mods when I'm back home, if y'all reckon I'm blaming the wrong mods.

it was made for "HARDCORE PLAYERS ONLY" and is featurebloated to be unrecognizable, google it or something

just mod your own game it isn't hard it just takes a bit

a texture pack and an ENB are most of the graphics quality you need

then you have to ask "do I want to redo the bad vanilla perks" and decide which mod you want to do that
do you want cold to kill you
do you want a hunger/thirst requirement
what about enemy diversity (what kinds?)
you could get alchemy mods
you could restrict smithing and enchanting, or get mods that handplace loot
there's like 100000 house mods

I googled it and people seemed pretty happy with it. I just want to play through again with a novel experience and better graphics now that I have a PC that can support it. I'm really looking forward to the new OP.

For real though, the advent of mod managers has made mod packs increasingly redundant now that anyone can get a bunch of mods working together without much trouble. Just go ham and install a bunch of mods all at once, it'll probably be okay, and file managers do most of the hard work for you.

Mod managers are rad and it is easier than ever but that's still too hard for people. If you are going to say something like 'then those players don't get to play the mods' then that's mean, everyone should be able to play :mad:

Modding isn't hard. In my experience the problem is more that people aren't willing to put in some time and effort to learn.
