Lol I said something nice about the large campaign style mods literally right before getting to the point in helgen reborn where it suddenly veers into cringe. Immediately after I posted that it started having these training missions with extremely stilted dialogue being high fantasy racist/sexist which, ok whatever. Then immediately after that you have to screw a sex worker a bunch of times in order for her to give you information on where the big bad dude is. There isn't any interactivity or choice involved at all. It's literally just click on hooker click on bed haha bitches like money amirite? Eesh. It felt like a 12-year-old was designing a video game and about 2/3 of the way through decided they really wanted a mature rating.

Helgen Reborn flies out the window for me the second the guy with the awful Ahnold impersonation shows up. It says something about how awful the excessively long dungeons you have to drag recruits through are that I don't even remember the sex workers.

Ah gently caress, there's another new version of Skyrim which has incompatible mods and stuff? I already have both LE and SE Skyrim so I guess I'm okay. I'm waiting till I get a newer, better comp in a few months, anyhow. Just got he sudden itch to replay it but I don't feel like installing all the mods again at the moment.

Yeah. I am so glad I am done with Falskaar. It was so bad. Worse than I expected even, and my expectations were pretty low. Why was I forced to let that boring bad guy fucker have very dull and unskippable conversations with the slowest-talking, most boring, most-ridiculously-accented NPC on the planet? Why did I have to listen to it? Why were there, like, six of these? Why couldn't I fireball the fucker at any point? Why did I have to keep letting him run away? Why was the ending a two second battle after multiple minutes of jabbering followed by some weirdass slideshow where I didn't even get to kill the dude and a dragon shows up out of nowhere? Hell - Why was I stuck on that island until I traveled all the way across it and paid some joker 500g to leave?

Speaking of bad mods, I tried The Legend of Slender Man by Mihail over the weekend, and unfortunately - despite Mihails usual high-level of graphical quality - it's overall a buggy mess, with notably dire text full of pseudo-philosophical claptrap. A pity, because the idea of something dire and horrific happening in the forests of Falkreath strikes a real chord with me.

That's the same reason I've never done a necromancy playthrough, even though there is a simple oldrim mod (that still works for SE/AE) that just replaces all the zombie groan sounds with silence. I should see if I could adapt the same thing to dogs.

I'm working on the hardest thing to do in Skyrim, getting rid of all quest required items in your inventory in the mid to late game. I'm down to five or six but two are related to midwood Isle and one is related to clockwork so I'm going to be at it a while. Edit: I actually console disabled my horse because for some reason its AI makes it want to step on your heels the entire game. It was, like, wandering in front of me when I was trying to shoot something. Sorry, Sweetroll *presses tilde* Eifert Posting fucked around with this message at 15:51 on May 19, 2022 |

Okay, trying to install all those mods for Oblivion was so frustrating that I just gave up. Now I'm giving it another shot. This time I just plan to install OBSE, NorthernUI, and the unofficial patch if possible. However, before I can try that, I need to get NorthernUI to work properly, and this is where I am having trouble. I installed OBSE as instructed in the readme. (I copied obse_1_2_416.dll, obse_editor_1_2.dll, obse_steam_loader.dll and the Data directory to my Oblivion installation location.) I then installed NorthernUI as instructed on the mod page, by copying all of the files in the zip to my Oblivion installation location. The result is that NorthernUI is installed, but only partially functional. I can now control the game with the controller and there is now a clock in the upper left corner of the HUD. However, all of the other UI stuff is the same as vanilla, and when I go to Options on the main menu, there is no Gamepad option to select. Can someone give me a clue as to what I might have done wrong?

NorthernUI installation instructions posted:Extract the mod into your Data directory (or create an OMOD out of it) to use it. Sounds like the new changes aren't being registered as being "newer" than the original files, so installing SkyBSA should help. You really should be using a mod manager for all this, even when you're just using a few mods.

You really should be using a mod manager for all this, even when you're just using a few mods. Okay. So... In order to use SkyBSA I need to use Mod Organizer. In order to use Mod Organizer with OBSE plugins, I have to follow the special instructions. The special instructions say that I need to "download xOBSE from the official website." Specifically, it says I to need download: obse_1_2_416.dll, obse_editor_1_2.dll, obse_loader.exe, and Data. I go to the github repository and look for these files. Not a single one of them is there.  Okay, so, here are some questions. Is xOBSE the same thing as OBSE? If so, can I just download the files from the OBSE website I am familiar with and use those? If not, where can I find the xOBSE versions?

Once you've arrived at the new page scroll down to the bottom and click the xOBSE zip file.  All the stuff should be in there.

The Gadfly posted:Not if the SE mods use SKSE. The vast majority of SKSE mods these days are AE compliant now that there's an SKSE version for Anniversary Edition. Mods that require .Net Script Framework, however, will probably never be ported to SE just because of the sheer coding nightmare prospect that is trying to make a new version of .Net Script Framework just for Anniversary Edition. Luckily those are few and far between now, it looks like. The only mod I have that still relies on .Net Script Framework is No Grass In Objects, specifically it's grass LOD precache generator, and for that I keep a bunch of separate dedicated SE downgrade copies of the mods/programs it needs to run in my Mod Organizer file list and then just use the downgrade patcher whenever I need to regenerate the grass LODs and then re-update back to AE when it's finished. It's a pain in the rear end, but like the man says, it just works.

I'm noodling around in Outfit Studio, figuring out how to split armor meshes into various component parts so I can build some silly mashups and I come across this on the Leather Armor Any idea what is going on there, and how I can avoid it? I want to set those shoulder pauldrons as separate vertices.

To actually delete model vertices you'll need to import the mesh into Blender or a similar 3D modeling software. If you are looking for a repositiory of already hacked up pauldron models to use in your mashups, check out this mod here: Pauldron.

I thought the male leather armour might work like the female leather armour - which has separate shoulderpads meshes baked into the NIF model, so you can easily turn them on and off. It turns out that with the male armour, the developers didnt bother meshing the armour under the shoulderpads, and as such, the textures dont exist. It's all baked into one unit, so even if you could separate the shoulderpads, you'd have to create new a new mesh to properly show the underlying armour, and generate all new textures just to get something similar to the female model

Anyone had a problem where you can't pay a fine or submit and go to jail with guards? If I choose those options, I just get one dialogue option, "wait, what's the problem?", and then it loops back to the pay/submit/resist options. I figured Guard Dialogue Overhaul must be causing it, so I first tried moving it further down the load order, then disabling it. No dice. It's not the biggest issue, since I try not to get in trouble with guards, but it's annoying knowing that if I amass a bounty at any point, I have to reload a save cause the only fine the guards accept is death. davidspackage fucked around with this message at 21:59 on May 24, 2022 |

Is there a way to list or see all dialogue/voice lines a particular follower has? I realised that I've only ever really played with Lydia, Lucien, Inigo and Serana. I was thinking to grab a new follower and swap them out when I've heard everything they have to say

Ant it would depend on if you use something like RDO or not, since those fill out some voice types and lines.

I installed AVO because I just wanted a basic rear end visual upgrade Unfortunately the ENB isn't great that comes with it, everything is very bright. Brights are bright and darks are also bright. I tried the most popular ENB and that looked better, but darks were TOO dark, to the point a torch in the nearby Whiterun prison I couldn't see five feet in front of my face. Anyone got a better ENB suggestion?

Ant it would depend on if you use something like RDO or not, since those fill out some voice types and lines. That jibes with what I'm finding, aye. So there isn't a set of voice lines for Faendral, as an example. Rather there are a series of lines for the MaleEvenToned voice type that actors in the Hireling/Follower factions use. It looks like a normal follower in base Skyrim would have access to around 100 lines, which makes the several thousand for companions like Inigo even more impressive. I'll dig a little deeper this weekend to see if I can figure out how dialogue lines are assigned to factions, quests and AI packages, if only to satiate my own curiosity.

GreenBuckanneer posted:I installed AVO because I just wanted a basic rear end visual upgrade I think the big three that people recommend these days are Silent Horizon, Pi-CHO (an extension of Silent Horizon) and the mainstay, Rudy. I run with Rudy for most of the time, but occasionally swap to one of the others. To give you some rough ideas of Rudy with ELFX + Exteriors and Cathedral Weathers: This was taken at 6AM on a foggy morning outside Windhelm:  10PM on a clear night in the Reach  4PM on a clear day in the Reach  4PM in the swamps outside Morthal on a very rainy day   1PM on a snowy day outside Windhelm  On overcast or rainy nights it can get very dark, almost pitch black and I will need a torch - but for the most part its fine. Interiors are possibly a smidge too bright and I'm considering grabbing ELFX Interiors to darken it slightly.

Usually if a enb I like is too dark at night or indoors I just open the in game enb settings and change the settings to lighten it up. No idea when so many people love pitch darkness at night sure it's realistic but is terrible to actually play.
