I only heard about the free SE upgrade after it was released. So I'm probably out of luck on this one, is there still any way to claim my free upgrade?

If you have the legendary edition or all the DLC, the special edition will be in your library. Otherwise you'll need to rebuy it.

Is there a mod that relaxes the usage limit on the Orc racial ability? I never tried an Orc or 2-handers until the SE launched. The first dungeon I went in ended in a battle with a necromancer and an endless supply of undead to murder and I don't know how I would have done it without berserk + 2H axe. I'd like to be able to use that skill more frequently without having to rest to the next day. I felt like such a badass hacking away while seeing red.

Berserk can activate randomly anytime in combat (I think it's like a 2% chance per second) but only as long as it's not on cooldown from being deliberately used. Can happen multiple times a day as long as it's not on cooldown.

I was hoping for this as well but then I looked in the installation folder and saw that they are all still separate ESMs. oh well  Remember how the coding for VATS was in OG skyrim, But it was unfinished or whatever? Maybe it's possible now, I wouldn't bet on it but how cool would that be? VV that's what I meant, but I want full VATS and it would be cool if they accidentally left all of the framework for it when transferring the engine over. runaway dog fucked around with this message at 19:48 on Nov 1, 2016 |

When you launch it for the first time, it'll ask if you want it to unpack the script source archive, you can ignore that until you want to edit/create scripts. Open up Skyrim.esm. It'll spit out one or more errors at you. That's normal, just press Cancel. In the Object Window, enter "RaceOrcBerserk" in the filter. If nothing shows up, be sure to select "*All" in the window underneath it. Two entries should show up, right-click on the Spel FormType & hit Edit. In the window that pops up, to the left you should see "Type" with a dropdown menu next to it that has "Power" selected. Set that to "Lesser Power". Click on Ok. You're done! All that's left is to save the plugin. Congratulations, you've now popped your CK cherry.

So, SSE seems a pretty nice improvement over old Skyrim now that there are a bunch of mods for it and I got it through my thick skull that indeed, you might have to put some work in to get older mods to work in SSE. This is probably something a lot of people know already, but I thought I'd at least link my findings in porting over the old Caribou Gone for personal use, since at the time Skyrim Flora Overhaul wasn't ported. 1. Textures can no longer use tga as a format. It'll probably crash SSE. 2. SSE uses a newer version of the .nif format. Old ones might or might not work. It also might or might not look like complete arse. To port older mods that have meshes and textures attached, you'll want the CK (obviously), as well as NifSkope and Intel Texture Works for Photoshop.. I believe there might also be a non-plugin variant of. If you have a lot of .nif files to convert, NifSkope can be a bit of a pain. Fortunately, Zilav over on AFKmods has written NifModify, which is a command-line batch converter for meshes. Further instructions for it in the link. Speaking of which, there's a decent thread on AFKMods with information about porting mods from Skyrim to SSE. Also, the instructions for Intel Texture Works for Fallout 4 work fine for SSE. Very basic mods can be ported by just opening them in the CK and resaving them. Best not run SSEedit on them before you've passed them through CK, for reasons outlined in the AFKMods link. In porting Caribou Gone, it needed further cleaning after resaving in CK, so you probably don't want to skip that step. Also, mods that include facegen must be run through CK, or you get completely black faces. I'm running 120 esp/esm:s not counting SSEs own ones here plus a bunch of texture/mesh-only mods and the game is running smoothly and hasn't crashed at all today, which I can't say ever really happened with the old one. Anyway, hope this is helpful to someone! Inepta Lacerta fucked around with this message at 21:45 on Nov 1, 2016 |

Raygereio I left you a nice note on your Shut Up mod. I pounced on it as soon as I saw it was up. Thanks to everyone else who linked the SkyUI file. Going to attempt to install it and check it out for myself. Then I will share with friends.  I feel goofy that I'm happy that True Eyes SE and True Brows SE are also up. Ok, Im a casual modder who uses NMM. How do I properly install the SkyUI 2.2 file? Extract it and drop the data file on data? EDIT:: ok, I pointed NMM at the zip file and it placed it. Activate it, but it doesnt show up in the mods list. I started my game just fine and I see the SkyUI set up Svanja fucked around with this message at 22:16 on Nov 1, 2016 |

Open up NMM, on the mods tab there should be a big green plus button. Press that, "add mod from file", and select the .zip. It'll unpack it automatically and store it where it needs to be stored. Then just "activate and install".

From what I remember reading on their announcement, there will be an in-depth virtual directory mode and such implemented, but they'll also be keeping a simple mode for the usual types who frequent  .

The tl;dr is that we're currently in a transitional period in Skyrim modding, and even if things will be awesome long-term, transition periods still suck.

Turns out if you have a mod with an ESM that hasn't been properly converted for SE yet, extracting the BSA to loose files will let SE run it just fine. Little buggy in places but mostly in missing textures ways, rather than enormous crashes. Means I can run my preferred ETAC + Dawn of Skyrim setup on SE.

Yeah, I think I may have misinterpreted what they meant by new formats. Meshes are slightly different, the BSA format is different under the hood, but textures and sounds seem 100% compatible.

Meshes are slightly different, the BSA format is different under the hood, but textures and sounds seem 100% compatible. Yeah, pretty much. Older meshes may or may not need converting to avoid flickering graphics and textures just work so long as they are in dds format and not tga (and to be fair, I don't remember when I last saw a mod use those). There are some really exotic dds encodings SE won't do, but that's easy enough to fix. Heck, now that the CK is out it shouldn't be too hard to repack .bsa archives as needed either. At least this engine iteration doesn't seem to have loading times impacted much by those.

REALLLY getting tired of NMMs bullshit. I'm thinking I may just get MO running with SSE. I first had an issue where it wasn't adding anything because they were all hung up in the queue. Which I didn't know was a thing until I stumbled on the little tab in the bottom. Which....why in the gently caress won't that tab stay open damnit?! Anyways, I figured out it was waiting for me to log in. Then, once that was sorted out, I'm having issues where it adds the mod to the stupid mod folder, but won't actually add it to the list. What a clunky piece of poo poo. Honestly, nexus would be best off just to scrap their entire poo poo "program" and let the MO guy bring plain old MO in. gently caress! Ok, rant aside, I'm really enjoying SSE. The rain occlusion is HUGE for me. I used to absolutely hate sitting under a bridge or roof even and have rain clipping through it. I never really liked how clunky the shelter mod was either. I'm looking forward to the war mods, especially now that more than an eighth of the npcs will actually fight now. EDIT: What in the ever-loving-gently caress? I checked the queue where my mod said it was completed, as-in adding it (whatever that means). And it had an option to pause it, so I hit that. Then I hit the little play button. Then, it installs a completely random mod?! Not even one I downloaded, or wanted, or knew about. What the gently caress is going on?! EDIT: EDIT: It's fixed. The mod installed and showed up in the list. No idea how...or why... but it's working. Christ. Arkitektbmw fucked around with this message at 09:27 on Nov 2, 2016 |
