GunnerJ posted:Apparently they used a compressed format that some say sounds worse, I dunno. I don't notice, but I tend to not pay too much attention to the sound since it's pretty average. you guys wanting to run Open Cities might want to reconsider, I had CTDs during the Mirmulnir part, and when I uninstalled it the problem was gone, only running the Achievement mod and SKYUI that someone posted in this thread. Too bad too since Whiterun actually ran smoother while that mod was installed somehow.

Reddit has the scoop on it. Side by side, I can tell the difference and it is worse, but it's not like "all noises have been replaced with 128kbps .mp3 renditions" worse.

And if you somehow got it in you to fix it NOW, supposedly you could just extract the vanilla Skyrim_All_Noises.bsa, repack it into SSE shape and just truck along as well as it always has.

Everything about this new edition of Skyrim is incredibly traumatic for the OP and all the time I spent writing it, nothing will make it worse or better. Why did Bethe$$$da not take MY NEEDS as a Skyrim modding thread OP curator into account??

Dumb Question: what are some recommended mods for the xbone version? Besides the unofficial patch. I don't know what the quality control is like for Bethsoft's console game mods, but I'd rather not test drive complete garbage if I don't have to.

So this new awesome Skyrim SE version hates modern technology. It does some crazy as poo poo frame skipping if I have g-sync enabled.

Gsync was causing my game to dip in to the single digit FPS whenever looking into some directions. Game runs a lot better and smoother without Gsync for some odd reason.

So how do you fix the dirty/burnt face bug? My vampire character has it and goddamn does it look weird. I know you can delete or replace a file, but I have no idea if the old Skyrim mods that do that will work. I can't find a fix on the special edition nexus either.

I've been having a great time dark soulsing it with a puny mage and maximum frostfall. Skyrim is genuinely threatening, it's great. Also The 3d sound mod with Immersive Sounds is amazing.

I feel like the general stock answer here is that any mod listed as good and worth trying in the OP is pretty likely to be good and worth trying if it's ported over to SE, although results may vary depending on what will work well on a console.

Is there a reason at this point not to just go back to normal ol' Skyrim if you're playing on PC? I get that Special Edition has pretty environments and all, but mods already did that. I'm not asking to sound contrarian - this all just seems so unnecessary.

It runs like a dream and has tons of potential. As others have said it's just a matter of waiting for SKSE. But yeah your average experienced mod user is going to have a set-up that already has Skyrim looking better than Bethesda's enhancements, so if you're itching for a full modded playthrough right now I wouldn't bother with SSE for a couple months.

How much did they do to the shadow rendering? With my 20 minutes of trying out and not being impressed with the performance I didn't even think to look for striping or face flickering.

I get that Special Edition has pretty environments and all, but mods already did that. I'm not asking to sound contrarian - this all just seems so unnecessary. I'm hoping that the sound bug I've been having with directional audio in Skyrim is fixed (since it was absent in FO4), because it's really loving annoying when dialogue cuts out mid-sentence because you turned your head for a second. Other than that, I'd at least want SkyUI in some form. dwarf74 posted:Yeah, I had to use this, which we talked about a bit above, because the default faces are still really ugly. I'll probably use this when I get around to playing. I was actually wondering if they had carried over FO4's chargen poo poo since FO4's humans actually look like people. This will suffice though.

That was a poorly-phrased question, but I've been dipping my toes into the available mods after years of not playing and was remembering some of the myriad minor changes I used. One of which was adding crossbows to regular bandits, but the available SE leveled loot list mods seem to be more about putting crazy enchanted stuff on everyone and not small tweaks.

GunnerJ posted:Altered from what? Dawnguard and Dragonborn did not add some of their new, general purpose equipment/items to level lists outside their own content. So for example, you wouldn't find Nordic weapons outside of Dragonborn NPCs/areas. And to answer the question. I don't know. I found a Bandit Chief the other day sporting Carved Nordic armor pieces at Greenwall, north of Riften. Bunch of the NPCs there were rocking nordic weapons. So maybe? But maybe it was just the Unofficial patch. It was one of the points way back when the unofficial patch was split between the DLCs. Merging leveled lists would require separate patches for each combination, which wasn't really practical. Enter the unofficial legendary patch, and now Special Edition patch. But maybe beth did merge them.
