I know I have the ~*~wrong console for modding~*~ but has anyone figured out a good way to determine "correct" load order on the PS4? While I'm at it, any good mods that aren't mentioned in the OP (since most of those can't be released for PS4)?

NuclearPotato posted:Using Wrye Bash and NMM for now, I'll probably clear everything out when NewMM pops up though. I think part of the issue with IA here has to do with how it adds unique armors to several of the NPCs you meet during the intro. BurntCornMuffin, I remember hearing somewhere that if you've got IA and want to play through the vanilla opening without anything breaking, you should use LAL and wait around in the starting cell a bit so that IA and other mods can initialize properly. After that you can just select the vanilla start and everything should be fine. That's assuming you've got your FPS locked to 60.

How are people even capable of modding on consoles? I didn't think people made mods other than for pc, it seems like it would be way more hassle than it would be worth.

I've been using Smilodon, the successor to Wildcat, to make combat more "realistic" and so far it's been all over the place. At lower levels with my suplexing punchcat I was doing all right against Forsworn as long as I managed how many enemies I fought at once. Now at level 22 I'm going through the East Empire Company warehouse in Solitude and bandits are taking 10+ sneak attacks from a crossbow. If I get near them I'm liable to be locked into a killmove and instantly killed, even with 220 health. A power attack with a dagger took me below half health. Granted, I wanted a challenge, but this has turned into quickload simulator. I don't remember vanilla having scaling this hosed up, and even then on expert there were no bandits taking nearly 1000 damage to die. Update: It seems to be mostly Skyrim doing this. At level 22 I'm seeing bandit marauders, which are level 25, have a shitload of perks, and two-handers get a 1.75x damage bonus. Uninstalling Smilodon did nothing and the game really wanted to drive this point home as the first bandit marauder I found magnetically pulled me into a killmove and decapitated me at full health. Is there any way around this bullshit? Update II: Installed the newer version of Smilodon, playing on adept, with the extra melee damage off. One-shotted by a bash attack from 225 health.

A while ago I found a mod through either this thread or the last that gave you a spell that basically created a container that contained one of each item added by each ESP that you have loaded, so you could basically grab stuff from your mods without having to find the refids and console them in. I'm doing a fresh install and completely forgot the name of this mod and really want it.

Dunno if it exists for SSE, it's probably SKSE-as-gently caress considering

I'm on a run through with my very first wildcat attempt and god drat. Started out not so bad, now if I run into 2 or more humanoid enemies and one is levelled more than the basic base, I just get stunlocked and pummeled into goo. Also found a bug using localised thieves guild mod - after selecting which city I wanna do a job in, Vex just says 'OK here's the job', then nothing happens. Didn't really matter, I just used the other thief guild mod to make brynjolf give me the chain anyway.

Most of you playing SSE are doing so to try it out, because that's the only version you have, because the performance gains are real?

It's legit tough at times, but if you can get the drop on people they go down fast. Companions aren't optional. One dungeon I gave up and just started running through, with about nine draugr hotfootin it behind me, then came out the end and they all spawned with me. I leapt off the drop at the end and Lydia (who had been absent the whole dungeon, thanks girl) turned up just then and we had a wild crazy brawl and pummelled them all into jelly. Was super fun.

Can't put it on super hard settings because it's just too hard, left it on expert. Finding things like Orc Berserker Rage extremely useful for boss fights and have to prechug potions. Shield + sword combo works well with time slow and power bash attacks.

Playing wildcat on legendary difficulty is like the most fun I've had. I'm level 20-something and some falmers can still mess me up quick if I'm not paying attention. And I'm creating and using healing potions for the first time ever! And I'm playing SE because it's really stable and pretty and free.

Guys, I couldn't find a solution to a specific problem: once I installed ENBoost, the memory patch warning at new game made a comeback - I had installed the unofficial patch/SKSE/crash/bug fixes already. If I have ENBoost set up and create a manual SKSE.ini for the memory issue, does that conflict with the fix that was already set?

As long as you have some form of the memory fix don't worry about it. ENB is for some reason looking for that one specific fix. But as far as I know, there isn't any problem with having two different memory fixes, which tbh seems doubtful to me so idk.

To be honest, besides SPERG and some quality of life stuff, what I want most is a 60fps Skyrim with better shadows and SSAO. The Oldrim shadows are sooo bad. I thought that was a PS3 thing, but nope. And the ENB framerate (on my mahcine) is just a bit too inconsistent for my taste (too many dips near cities and mist). If I was given the choice again, I'd probably get SSE (when the modscene catches up, and it's on sale).

I already tested making the skse.ini manually and it goes away, but I am wondering if that sets up some conflict that might be unaware. In order for it to be active in your game, you need to manually create that skse.ini and input the following: [Memory] DefaultHeapInitialAllocMB=768 ScrapHeapSizeMB=256 DefaultHeapInitialAllocMB is "desired value + 256". So now the game will reserve 512mb & 256mb, instead of 2x 256mb blocks on launch. Be careful about increasing these values willy nilly. There's no need to for the game to allocate a much larger block then it needs and doing so can cause crashes. If you're still running out of memory, try using this skse plugin to find out how big of block your modded setup needs. Also if DefaultHeapInitialAllocMB is less than 1024 then ScrapHeapSizeMB must be 256. If DefaultHeapInitialAllocMB is 1024 or greater ScrapHeapSizeMB must be 512 or the game will crash on start. Likewise crash fixes' memory allocator patch is also disabled by default. Raygereio fucked around with this message at 18:24 on Nov 28, 2016 |

For example <MO>\SKSE\SKSE\skse.ini I'd be all snide and go "read the readme". But really, this one the gripe I have with all of the Script Extenders. Their documentation is awful. There's a lot of functionality that if it's written somewhere at all, it's in the whatsnew.txt or in one the million forumthreads over on the Bethesda forums.
