I have an optimus setup and I need to use the injector version instead of the wrapper. It works, trust me. I use enboost settings for my laptop instead of the graphical goodness, but I could just throw in a graphical setting and it'd work. As long as it's the injector version.

Trying to figure out mods to use for another play of the game. I will be using most of the list of the recommended mods for a vanilla game, but I'm skipping faster mining and replacing it with CCO Remade because it includes a faster mining option inside of it. I'll be using the optional modules of it as well. I will also be using SPERG, Falskaar, Immersive Weapons & Armors, and Epic Gameplay Overhaul with only the Combat Drama, Dragon Combat, and Civil War Overhaul modules. Not sure what else I should throw in the mix for an enjoyable game. IAmTheRad fucked around with this message at 21:44 on Jul 22, 2014 |

Positronic Spleen posted:I should also note that the game engine has problems even with "vsync" enabled if, for example, one uses a 120Hz monitor (or probably anything over 60). I assume because the game syncs up to the monitor with no upper limit for some boneheaded reason. I literally have to use a frame-limiter mod or else Very Bad Things happen and the game can become effectively unplayable. Oh yeah, that. The game itself doesn't like over 60fps. Vsync works for me because my monitor can't go over 60Hz, and that's just fine for me. Hitting 61fps a couple of times doesn't matter, but 100fps would cause hilarity to happen. I blame consoles for imposing this limitation.

The physics in the game are stupid enough, and that when the game runs over 60 the physics is one of the first things you notice that just goes insane. The rest is behind the scenes and can break the game quicker. At least any sort of ENB even if you are using just the speed hack is essential for the game unless you're running pure vanilla, and you can just limit it in there instead of the janky way the ini file does it.

Absolute essential mods? The Unofficial Patches. Even if you plan on running an unmodded game as much as you possibly can, grab the unofficial patches. SkyUI is pretty much required for most mods nowadays, too.

SkyRe is an ambitious mod, but it doesn't do much for the perk system. Yes, it adds a ton of perks that makes a very specific linear path better. Don't deviate from that path unless you want to make yourself weak! Not to mention you basically need to use the ReProccer to get SkyRe to play nice with weapon/armor mods. Or you need to get a mod to get a mod to work properly. There's no real feel of progression, since there's so many perks to get and so little perk points you can use without making yourself weak in another area. It feels more like a struggle than an enjoyable experience playing a character. It does claim it's a perk overhaul, but adding a ton of new perks doesn't fix the issue perks have in the first place. You must get specific perks in order to make an effective character, and don't deviate from that path at all. SPERG on the other hand does fix the main issue with perks. The 'essential' perks in a tree are the perk you get automatically just by levelling up that specific skill tree. For example, you get the different types of smithing automatically as you level up smithing. You don't need to decide to focus on crafting Light Armour or Heavy Armour. You get them both. The perks that you do need to pay a point for let you specialize on a specific type, but you won't be left behind because you decided you'll get Light Armour for your character, but the Daedric Swords have better damage and you can't temper them. Or the Speech tree, which is the most useless tree in Vanilla Skyrim. You get the perks that let you be better with merchants for free. The other perks don't do anything with merchants in the redone tree. They just make you a lot better at different things. Long Winded - Sprinting consumes very little stamina, and power attacks cost 10% less stamina. Good sounding perk, right? It's in the speech tree. SPERG just makes the game more fun. Each perk that you spend makes you stronger in some way. There are no absolutely useless perks that you need to spend points on with SPERG. Changes the game from a grind to just playing it. Armor skills for example level up if you run around wearing that armor. If you are a mage and only wear clothing, well, Mage Armor - Magic armor spells never need to be re-cast. When not wearing armor, they are four times as strong and level Alteration as if it were an armor skill. Dual Casting is in the Destruction Tree, and has a very reasonable skill requirement. Also it gives double casting to all magic trees. Seriously, take a look at SPERG. http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/24445/ I've tried SkyRE and SPERG, and of course vanilla. SPERG just makes the game fun and enjoyable, and each perk changes the way you play the game. They're precious, and way more powerful than they are in vanilla/SkyRE. Getting one every other level using the uncapper keeps it balanced.

Mr. Crow posted:I wish there was one good solid overhaul, like FWE, FCOM (this is several technically but details) etc. I mean the biggest overhaul that you usually hear about is SkyRe. It's for the more average player, and changes many things. The difficulty is increased due to all the changes it makes to the game, but it's not unfair difficulty. You might be lucky and wander into a cave full of enemies that are quite a few levels below you, or you might be fighting enemies way above your level that you'll need to return to later with better stats, equipment, and a follower. Many mods will need a compatibility patch or a ReProccer patch to work properly. Requiem removes the scaling completely as I understand. It's a more hardcore overhaul for Skyrim. I haven't played it so can't comment really on it. SPERG just overhauls the perks system completely. The rest of the game remains relatively untouched. I just love the automatic perks and the fact that there are far less completely useless perks. Magicka regen in battle and stamina regen in battle are useless for a Redguard if you're using the Resplendent - Races of Skyrim mod by the way. It plays much more nicely with mods that new spells or equipment. Yes, there's compatibility patches for some mods. I guess I prefer SPERG because it's the first overhaul mod I tried and just works the best without much hassle.

Some of them make the dungeons a lot darker, which is....nice, but annoying when I can't see a thing when I'm trying to sneak without a 150 watt light globe above my head. Is there a spell/mod somewhere that I can cast to get the Night Eye ability? None of the court mages I've come across seem to have one. Grab this mod. http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/22274/ Yes, it's not a night eye spell because those don't exist, but you'll be able to see at least if you grab this and just 'cheat' to give yourself night eye. Also it doesn't have the annoying rear end night eye shader on it so it works a lot better since it doesn't blur everything and make it nearly impossible to see anyways

CoT will only be dark if you choose one of the night modules. I do recommend throwing in the Climates of Tamriel Weather Patch in the game too. Do NOT use the CoT night levels with the weather patch. Level 2 (from the weather patch) works fine since it makes nights dark. The modules are completely optional.

It's safe to remove dirty entries in your mods, as long as that LOOT doesn't say that this mod needs dirty edits in order to function. You did remember to make back ups in TES5Edit if they later change the LOOT display and say to not clean the mod, right? It's perfectly safe to clean up update.esm, dawnguard.esm, hearthfire.esm, and dragonborn.esm. If you use MO, you can even just have MO load the cleaned ESM files over the original ones.

Positronic Spleen posted:Great, so it only took me all the time this weekend I could have spent actually playing the game to debug this poo poo, but I figured out why the scripting was ultra-sluggish. Turns out it was the FPS limiter (d3d9.dll and antilag.cfg) I was using. That is to say, the same one I deemed necessary several pages back because otherwise the physics engine goes insane because the engine doesn't anticipate a 120 Hz display (or probably anything higher than 60 Hz). I'm going to see if I can't just force 60 Hz through the downsampling application. You can even make it borderless full screen if you wanted it using ENB without issue.

I was getting crazy stuttering using the STEP settings and once I turned on the x64 option in ENB that stuttering vanished. The odd thing was it was only outside and when combat started. Inside it ran smooth all the time.

I used to use Lootification. It's a good mod, but there's a few issues I have with it. The way it changes outfits is not something I enjoy. I know that if I used match outfits, I just ran into bandits wearing the Barbarian armor set from Immersive Armors, and perhaps the boss bandits wore the Bosmer armor set. It's a good mod, I'll give you that. But seeing as how it basically gave the outfits to people even if I had outfits turned off, I didn't like it. I switched to a combination of mods for loot instead. Dynamic Loot and Dynamic Loot Addons, Grimys Enchanted Loot Overhaul and Loot and Degradation. Loot and Degradation basically does what Lootification does except on the fly, and it also adds tempered equipment to the lists of enemies. Making weapons/armor degrade when using the mod is great, too. With enchanted items, you need soul gems to refill the items, but the vanilla game once you sharpen a weapon, it stays sharp forever. isoku is a good modder with the Wet & Cold series probably their most popular set of mods, and Loot and Degradation doesn't get enough notice. One note about GELO. You need to move the SkyProc patcher from inside the Docs folder of it to the root of the mod folder. As well you need to edit the GELO_IMPORTER_CASE_SENSITIVE.txt file and put in the mods you want it to add enchantments to. Case sensitive.

Back Hack posted:Are there any magic scaling mods that work well with SPERG? I'm having the worst luck finding one that doesn't also try to balance the perk system. SPERG scales the magic system beautifully. There are basically no useless perks with SPERG. The usual 'essential' perks are in the autoperk section of the tree. Casting ALL spells in a tree for half magicka with the apprentice perk which is the auto perk is pretty nice. For Alteration and Conjuration, the initial perk increases Duration of the spells, and for the other casting trees, it increases the magnitude of the spells depending on your skill in that tree. You can change Illusion spells from Magnitude to Duration instead if you want by modifying the settings inside the MCM for SPERG. If you REALLY want to use an alternate scaling system for SPERG, use the esp files in the override folder of SPERG's settings. The default scaling works perfectly in SPERG.

Geoff Zahn posted:I think I'm just going to pass on using Morrowloot, It sounds like it's more of a game of Where's Waldo than just finding a piece of ebony/glass at the end of a dungeon once in awhile. I like the idea of only finding dwemer stuff in dwemer ruins, and only orcs have orc stuff, etc., but I don't want to have to scour every random nook and cranny just to find a dagger or shield. Scarcity just makes it so that less loot will show up in general. Boss chests might contain the nice goodies, but most of the time enemies will not be carrying more than what you see on them. You might still find amazing things on enemies, and in chests. But it's just more rare with Scarcity.

I have a really weird problem. When I get into combat outside with an animal, my game lags like crazy. When the enemies are dead, the game resumes it's regular speed. I don't have this problem in caves at all. I don't even have any mods that change animals beyond unofficial patches (and PERMA). It's really weird because sometimes in combat with humanoid opponents outside will run like butter, but other times that will lag too. But it's only outside, and never inside cells.
