Fintilgin posted:Feeling like an idiot here and getting irritated. Downloaded some mods from the Skyrim Special Edition nexus site (unoffical patch, live another life, magic) but there is no option for Data Files in the launcher, and when I point the new version of NMM to Skyrim SE, the esps I dropped in the data folder just don't show up. All that is there is the five vanilla esms. You're not meant to drop them in the data folder. Nmm uses a virtual filesystem that doesn't touch the vanilla data folder. Download the zips and add them, or judt use download with manager if it's enabled this weekend.

Question - does Ordinator add scaling to destruction magic like SPERG or should I source another mod that does the same? Also 3DNPCs is tentatively compatible. http://3dnpc.com/2016/10/27/3dnpc-v3-31-sse-alpha/ I add tentatively because everything's in a loose file rather than a BSA which makes installation take for loving ever.

Man SSE is crazy stable in comparison to regular skyrim. Just installed 150 odd mods and bam, works totally fine, with one or two missing textures. Though my framerate is hovering around 30 FPS which kinda blows, despite my GTX 970. but all things considered a low framerate and a few missing textures after dumping 150 mods into skyrim is pretty crazy. e: okay, disabling vsync solved the low framerate, reinstalling smim fixed the textures. getting rid of open cities though. not worth the hassle, cool as it is. e2: well that's goddamn bizarre. No NPC audio, voices, etc. And this despite disabling everything but the unofficial patch and the alternate start. Mod added voices work fine however. Suggestions on how to fix?

Farg posted:ok but how do i make my game not crash on launch and also save my level 25 save Sounds like a missing master file. Go through your modlist, NMM should let you know that there's a missing master when you look in the mods tab. Also I'm not sure porting over a save from oldrim is really feasible. If it's a SSE save you're fine. Also Beth.net mods are laggy and buggy as poo poo. Way worse than the steam workshop in terms of implementation. You may need to manually delete the .esp and any associated files from your data folder. If they still won't delete properly, delete plugins.txt and loadorder.txt which are in local appdata, iirc.

Mehrunes posted:How so? I mean I know the UI ingame is garbage compared to steamworks but how are they functionally worse aside from people just uploading lovely mods? I mean maybe they fixed it for SSE, but you would not believe the amount of bug reports I got for the mods I uploaded to bethesda.net for Fallout 4. Plugins not activating, plugins refusing to deactivate, .bsas sticking around after uninstallation. At least with steam if you've unsubscribed to something you know that at least it'll get loving deleted. I mean I literally had dozens of people reporting these bugs and all I could say was "blame bethesda" because it sure as gently caress wasn't an .esp messing with your loadorder and plugins.txt located in a hidden folder in %appdata% tl;dr you have no idea if installing/activating/deleting the mod through bethesda's interface is actually going to do a drat thing.

Mehrunes posted:Well deleting mods actually deletes them. I haven't experienced any of the problems you've described in SSE. Bethesda.net seems fine for general use. I mean even if it worked fine, which it might in SSE, it's still a colossally dumb idea to install anything off of Beth.net instead of through the Nexus. You really want to have everything managed by a mod manager, especially if anything you're doing involves texture or mesh replacements. God I miss Mod Organizer. So much more convenient to manage texture mods!

Drunk Driver Dad posted:Well I got my mods working but I noticed an issue. My skyrim has that deal where when you move the camera slowly it's "jittery". Its sometimes really subtle and sometimes really noticeable. It's hard to say for sure but I think it's worse when you're around a lot of trees and rocks, less so interiors. It's not the mods, it does it even booting up the game in vanilla mode, and I think my computer is strong enough to run it, depending on resolution and settings it ran anywhere from 40-60 fps. I tried limited framerate to 30 with riva tuner, and then with an .ini edit instead. It seemed to help a little but it definitely didn't fix it. I tried a mod to run in borderless windowed, didn't fix it, but it did fix my double pointer arrow issue when alt tabbing at least. I also messed around with V sync, tried setting graphics with my Nvidia program, and also tried it letting the game set them. With that graphics card it's a wonder you can even get that high, but props I suppose!

Psion posted:Compatibility issues with too many other mods. If your modlist is short, go for it, but if you start getting into it, "I think it's a problem with Open Cities" is something you see posted a looooooot. It's not the mod's function at fault, it's what you have to do to the gameworld in exchange. It breaks a lot of assumptions for other modders. Open Cities is legit stable these days. But it's too incompatible with other mods for what's a cool gimmick and not a lot more. It's not all that convenient, really.

NuclearPotato posted:Something that only just recently came out (we're talking in the last couple of weeks, specifically). There's also still a lot of work left to do before it's as fleshed out as, say, SKSE is. Dude the beta of f4se has been out for over a year now, or thereabouts. I also feel like folks bitching about the lack of f4se killing fallout modding aren't actually modders themselves, because it really hasn't. Sure, there's always a papyrus function you really wish you had, but f4se solves some of those problems nicely and the others are a consequence of any sort of coding in the first place. I've no comment to make on skyrim modding because I don't mod skyrim, but I was literally the first person in the world to figure out how to get plugins to work with fallout 4 (and release them, I should clarify) a good month or two before the real tools were release.

Bethesda 's scripting engine does (with a number of bugs) everything it needs to do for the vanilla game. I hardly think it's greed or laziness that they don't put in extraneous functionality that would go unused. It's a testament to mod authors doing cool things, not Bethesda being lazy or greedy with regards to skse

Archonex posted:Huh, really should have waited to post that on this page. That Organic Factions mod is easily the hugest thing i've seen out of Skyrim since it's release. Regardless, check the bottom of the last page. It's amazing, and really needs lots more attention. In theory it's possible with some clever scripting, but Bethesda would have to extend their api for it to work. What it could do is have a script that runs once on load that phones home and checks to see if the user has purchased the given content, disabling it if it doesn't check out, and serializes the value to the game save so it doesn't need to run again. Of course, unless you also build that into the ck it would be pretty trivial to remove, and if they haven't done that for the DLC I doubt they'd do so for this.

For OG Skyrim, MO works fantastic. It's a bit of a pain in the rear end to setup and to deal with some folder shenanegins, but the big benefit is the fact that you can separately choose which textures and meshes overwrite one another. It's a huge advantage for setups with lots of texture mods. For SSE (and FO4 for that matter) I'd just say gently caress it and use NMM. I used to be a big Mod Organizer partisan, but it's a nightmare to use for FO4 and SSE has both less of a need for big texture mods and I'm not sure how well MO works with it. In any event, it's unnecessary for my use and probably not worth the headache.

oh yeah no I would never use beth.net It was such a pain for FO4 I never even bothered updating any of my mods there after the initial upload, and the utter lack of FOMOD support or ability to upload multiple .esps was a complete killer. Like occasionally to stroke my own ego, I like counting how many downloads total I have on all my mods (just over a million!) and I don't even bother counting the Beth.net ones because goddamn what a horrid interface.

Midig posted:The general opinion is that SSE has more potential due to better performance and stability, but that certain ENB effects, SKSE functionality, and a solid mod manager are still to live up to Oldrims standards. Of those functionalities they seem to be coming along in the order I put it in. Which means I will have to wait a long time for SSE since I honestly just can't go over to it until they got stable Mod Organizer. All of that said some people swear by SSE and they might be correct. But I am not abandoning my monster load order in Oldrim until SSE is the clear choice to go for. SKSE is in SSE now, I thought? And NMM works fine and handles uninstalls properly, the only major missing feature is the inability to independently handle load order for loose files not packaged in a BSA.

No though you're "missing out." You'd be shocked how much stability matters and improves the game, it's very significant. Like one or two crashes in thirty hours with 150 mods stable, when I played like six months back. That being said I literally am (was?) a modder and so dread the idea of recreating my setup I haven't played since a few months back so that part is 100% fair really

NMM is fine if uninspired these days and honestly the loss of functionality is probably worth the time spent not troubleshooting installation issues. It's fine, it does the job, and most importantly? It's easy to use. MO2 is not. MO2 is better and if it works for your setup great but honestly I wouldn't recommend it to new folks.
