I use it for Skyrim. Out of the 200 anime weeaboo haircuts in there there are about 5 that are indeed worthwhile.

Man Whore posted:does anyone else vomit in their mouth a little when they see someone suggest Apachii skyhair? Like maybe its gotten better but after seeing it in every bethesda game over the decade it has never looked good to me. They've added some somewhat decent things over the years, but yeah, there's a ton of junk in there still. It's got like 400 hair options so you'll find one that isn't garbage and hate scrolling through the other 399 every time you're in racemenu. On the other hand someone using that list probably won't be in racemenu tweaking their character more than once, so it's not all bad. I'd suggest you use KS Hairdos or KS HDT, but

GunnerJ posted:Guess this varies also depending on the setup of Windows. Is your account an administrator and the owner of the directories in which the games are installed? I'd always figured that this is why I never had an issue. I set that up when I discovered that I wasn't the owner of Program Files for reasons that have nothing to do with modding (i.e., just on general obstinate principle). My account is definitely an admin and it probably is set as owner (I can't remember specifically doing that but hey I don't remember half the poo poo I do to my computer).

ajkalan posted:Yes, this was the problem, I installed the game outside of Program Files and that messed everything up. Thanks to you and Agents are Go for the help! So you're saying that you now moved Skyrim outside of Program Files and it works properly now? The thing about keeping the game and all of your modding tools out of Program Files is while its not always necessary, it's totally unpredictable as to when it is necessary and the symptom are an almost infinite number of seemingly unrelated problems. In my experience, even turning off UAC and other security bits in windows doesn't change the fact that windows watches Program Files like a hawk and interferes with stuff there more than files located elsewhere. Since quite a few pieces of mod software - ENB, SKSE, Mod Organizer, and even some SkyProc patchers - use techniques very similar to virii and malware in order to hook into the games code, Windows tends to interfere. In the example here, if I had to guess, ajkalan's computer was interfering with MO creating the virtual directory, and Skyrim was having trouble loading the games files. (PS: GunnerJ, I wrote all that with the idea that maybe you'd adapt part of it into the new OP, feel free to cannibalize any of my posts.)

Hey heads up folks, fellow goon Antistar has released his quest/house mod Clockwork and not even bothered to tell us! Antistar is the modder behind WMX for New Vegas, so it's probably pretty good.GunnerJ posted:Yeah that's a good call.

Known issues: Some clipping with male orcs. Every other race should be fine."  Also seeing an "Armored Circlets by Quickfox", which while older seems to be much more well put together at a glance (even if the steam workshop link doesn't work). That thread title is highly accurate. "I'm going to start! Just as soon as I find proper Mad Max/Fist of the north star orc mohawks!"

Transmogrifier posted:Complete Crafting Overhaul has an option to add Armored Circlet recipes. And taking a quick glance at that mode, it cites that Quickfox one as the circlets used. So they are probably good even on their own as well. I'm sure the overhaul mod is cool overall, but jumping in with "Our vision demands extra side components and only being allowed to smith daedric weapons at night! (unless you turn that off  )" might be a bit extra on the pile to start with.Speaking of Extras, does that overhaul mod work out with SPERG okay? Since it talks about changing what perks unlock certain items, and a few other crafting perk related mods as required.

You seem a little upset about a mod having extra features that you can toggle on and off in game. It works fine with SPERG from my experience in play throughs. Also there's no extra side components required to actually craft the circlets. You don't even need the Quickfox or Armored Circlets textures to use CCO's. You just craft them from a normal helm at a smelter. Transmogrifier fucked around with this message at 16:16 on Aug 13, 2016 |

I suppose I could have worded that more graciously, my track record of seeing things with "We want to shuffle requirements because of lore/immersion" has generally been a poor one. Even if I was not expecting anything terrible. That and figuring on getting used to basic crafting in general, before diving in to adding secondary components and shuffling around ebony for Orichalcum, quicksilver secondaries, etc. (It mentions the 'Craft Daedric only at night' being optional, but not that stuff) With a side of "Okay it requires a side mod I wasn't quite interested in, and... a Bashed patch is required to merge-I don't even know what the gently caress that means". That's part of what I meant for a bit much for diving right in with it. Nice to hear it works good for SPERG though, for if I change my mind and decide just the weapons and armor fixes patch means smithing is garbage and I should be upset about Vanilla instead

Hey Skyrim modding thread, I haven't played for a long while but have decided to dick around in Skyrim a bit this weekend. I have a pretty good set of mods I enjoy using, but the problem I always run into is choosing an ENB preset that A) doesn't make everything dark as poo poo, and B) doesn't impact the frame rate too terribly. Regarding darkness – I'd like a torch to be helpful at night, but I don't want the entire world to become utterly pitch black after 5pm. On the scale of vanilla lighting to pitch black, I want about 70% vanilla. I'll probably use CoT. Any recommendations, or are the presets listed in the OP still reliable? I'd like the game to look pretty and I have a beefy rig, but I don't want to gently caress around with the ENB settings endlessly.

I definitely should check up on that sort of thing, yeah, It is likely much easier than it sounds. Particularly with years of modding tools behind it. As much as anything I should just turn on the drat game and get going. Deciding whether or not to dig deeper into overhauls (SPERG is the only thing that isn't a quick fix I've got slotted at the moment) will be an easier choice once I I've gotten my hands on the gameplay it would be altering again for more than a couple hours.

I've been using this older mod for quite some time to hide equipped helmets fit some characters. You get a simple hotkey toggle and don't have to bother crafting anything special. Let that Goku hair run free http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/22765/

Ra Ra Rasputin posted:I'm I going to want to make a fresh skyrim install on another drive for enderal, or will it work fine if I have mod organizer to keep the mods separate? The installer will copy all relevant Skyrim files, including installed mods, into a backup directory and set up Enderal from scratch. You can then use the custom launcher to switch between the two installs or delete Enderal entirely, but I'm pretty sure you can't play both at the same time (presumably because steam doesn't like keeping two separate installs around). I don't use MO or any mods in Enderal, but I guess you could just switch to a new blank profile. And don't forget to disable your ENB, Enderal heavily tweaks the lighting settings, so all Skyrim enb's will look like rear end.

Beautiful design all-round, the various scripted story bits are really impressive, and despite being made by Germans the English voice-acting seems way better than in Skyrim. It's a good thing I nabbed the last of Skyrim's achievements on Steam because I really don't see myself ever going back to it.
