I found this cool little mod that lets you gamble on a dice game in taverns, and it got me thinking about how unconnected I feel to the game world. Are there any other good mods out there that add more little things like that to make the world feel a little deeper? All the ones I've found so far seem to be going for the "backbreaking peasant labour" niche.

Griever posted:I'm really liking this Leaf Rest player home mod http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/33661/ Nice! I was just about to ask for suggestions for player homes.  I've been using this one for a really long time, due in large part to being spoiled by the auto-sorting chests:Heimsgaror But as I just installed a bunch of new mods and started a fresh character I wanted to get away from always using it and live somewhere new. Anyone else have any favourite player homes?

I'm having some problems with brawls. I'm trying to brawl Uthgerd, and she either stands up to fight, stops fighting and sits down again immediately, or pulls out her sword after a couple of punches and turns it into a real fight. At first it was just standing up then sitting down again, I uninstalled Enhanced Blood Textures based on some posts I saw elsewhere, but this just leads into the scenario where she pulls out her sword after a bit. I thought it might be due to SPERG, but forcing brawl mode through the menu there just leads to her stopping the fight and sitting straight down again. I also have the loose files version of this fix but that's not helping either. Kind of at a loss here, anyone encountered this and know what some typical solutions are?

Overemotional Robot posted:Are you using UFO? I had a problem with it screwing up brawls for some reason. And yes, had this exact problem and after lots of trial and error just ended up not talking to her at all. I was using EFF, removing that didn't help, I removed everything that might be casting an effect on the player and no luck. Thing is, this is the first intimidation quest I was given in the companions, and I can't abandon it, does this mean I can't do their questline?

I'm trying to find a player home mod I remember from a while back, it adds a little hoboshack underneath the bridge just inside the Whiterun city gates. I can only find these two: http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/26409/ http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/44136/ Neither of which are the one I remember. They don't quite have that "I'm a homeless person" vibe I'm lookin' for. I think the one I'm remembering didn't even have a floor, just the stream bed running through it. Am I crazy or does anyone else remember this/know where to find it? Edit: Found it! It's called the Humble Abode. http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/34954/ Davoren fucked around with this message at 08:47 on Mar 20, 2014 |

Honestly I think you're better off with The Town Is Safe rather than When Vampires Attack, TTIS spawns vampires from the levelled list rather than master vampires all the time, much safer.

On the question of DLC, I was pretty pleased with all of it. Even the ones with bad writing add enough new places and items to make up for it, also I fully expected Hearthfire to be poo poo but its actually kind of cool.

I was looking at mods that add children of other races to adopt, I found this one: http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/27542/ But the kids just look like shrunk adults. Someone added a patch to update the models using something called SkyKids, but when I google that I get a bunch of loverslab links, which makes me understanably wary. Anyone got any experience with this?

I've been using the mod Convenient Horses, it adds a power that lets you whistle for your horse, plus it has all kinds of other options, what saddle your horse uses, health and speed boosts, whether they run from combat, and it gives your followers horses. Can't imagine playing without it now.

Faster Mining by Ebald makes it so you'll get everything from a vein in three strikes if you activate or one strike if you just hit it with the pick. You do know you can mine by hitting the rock with the pick like a weapon right?

Does anyone know if there's a mod or console command or something to bust you back down to level 1, reset the scaling on the enemies but keep all your progression and stuff? I find that I get tired of a character not because I'm done with them, but the high level play isn't as interesting as that of a low level character, but it gets tiresome to keep making new dudes and running them through the same old questlines and dlc's for the ranks and perks and such.

Yeah, I found some bat files and commands that set you back down, but there's not a lot of information about exactly what that entails, and I don't want to be a level 1 character when the world still thinks I'm 50+. The gear problem is easy, I just put that stuff away and start over. Thought I'd ask here because you dudes are generally very knowledgable about this stuff! Edit: And there's always the fear that I break something and don't notice right away, so I end up overwriting my saves and scratching that character completely. Thinking about it, I'm using sperg, so I could do the perk reset, then console remove the perk points, and change my health/magicka/stamina and level, but would the game actually go by that level from now on? Perhaps if I waited for a bunch of days... Davoren fucked around with this message at 01:03 on Jan 14, 2015 |

Yeah, the main thing I'm trying to achieve is to effectively have a new character, but one who doesn't have to climb to high hrothgar for the hundredth time, or go to the soul cairn again because whoops vampires are killing everything. Edit: Yeah the more I look into this the more problems I anticipate, I think I'll look into spicing up the endgame rather than risk breaking something by trying to go backwards, thanks for your input guys!

I think I started to figure it out before I got sidetracked with familiar faces, sperg has the option to refund auto perks as well as chosen ones, so that sorts out that part of it. There is no console command to remove those perk points, but sperg seems to have another setting to get rid of them. I didn't do that, but I did manually set all skills to 15 with the console, and changed my health/magicka/stamina the same way. I then set my level to one, but for some reason it put me up to level 4 right away, maybe it tracked the 15 points in each skill? Either that it it was because I hadn't addressed those extra perk points yet. I may look into it again, but as I said familiar faces is giving me a fresh start without having to say goodbye to old characters. Thanks for your continued input guys!

GunnerJ posted:Well, it's not just a matter of story. Everything was so threatening (at one point I had to fake-out a bunch of frost trolls by using the landscape and well-timed sprinting), and I could never stay in one place too long or even sleep because I could wake up to some guys sent to teach my character the last lesson he'll ever get. Once I had a decent set of gear this stopped being a problem. Yeah, I just started a Bosmer with the 'bandit in the wilds' background, bored of the lame-rear end poo poo my bros in valtheim towers were pulling, I said screw it and decided to become an adventurer. I dodged through Whiterun hold to avoid my pre-existing bounty, and trekked west finding out what a bunch of dickbags non-allied bandits actually are, I took in some word walls while dodging frost trolls, somehow managing to make it to Markarth at the limit of my encumbrance after a bunch of hick dirt farmers let me loose in their mines to clear out Forsworn. I just got roped into finding the Jesus of loving for the Dibellans when all I really wanted to do was steal their statue.

Someone mentioned the TNF remodelled vanilla homes earlier, they looked pretty cool but my load order is getting long, so I made my first foray into using TES5Edit and combined them into a single plugin. I'm going to make sure I haven't done anything which is going to break stuff, but once that's done, if there's interest I can upload it if anyone wants it.

There's a lot of outdoor/no loading door homes on the nexus that look pretty cool, but I've avoided them because I have vague memories of an npc going through my containers in Fallout 3 and my followers eating all my food in the Lucky 38 in new Vegas. With the number of these kind of homes that are available, I'm guessing that's not actually a problem any more?

I don't know man, I have vague memories of people trying to port Daggerfall into Morrowind and we all know what happened to that, but if the Skywind team can keep releasing videos like that, maybe they'll attract the people with the right skills for the job. Looking at Skyrim and New Vegas mods compared to what's come before, I definitely feel like the ability of the community to produce this kind of content for a 3D game has been on a sharp rise the last couple of years, maybe it'll happen.
