Trustworthy posted:I feel like I'm starting Skyrim SE off on the wrong foot when the second mod I install is to fix dumb bullshit from the first mod I installed. actually this is the best introduction to modding a Bethesda game. It only gets better (or worse, depending on how you look at it) from here I mean it's mods all the way down e: speaking of Mod Organizer 2, I've been vaguely following the github commits and there is, at least, one person trying to push a functional MO2 for Skyrim SE out - from what I'm reading odds are good it'll happen eventually, but good software usually isn't developed overnight. Honestly as long as they can give me a working VFS the rest is something I can work around.

Yeah, auto downloads rely on Nexus being slightly less hammered than it currently is. That goes for MO and NMM both, so download manually and install manually through Mod Organizer for the time being.

FutonForensic posted:I'm not sure if I would consider Open Cities all that necessary. It takes me like half a second to load into the cities now, and the mod requires more compatibility patches than any other mod I've seen. I agree with Futon; it's a nice thing if you want to commit to never changing anything else about cities ever, but it's a giant mess of compatibility hell waiting to happen. And we all know everyone's mod lists are going to expand as more mods get ported or developed for SE.

The Iron Rose posted:I add tentatively because everything's in a loose file rather than a BSA which makes installation take for loving ever. Couldn't you just pack it into a BSA yourself? my guess is they're running into the same CK BSA packing issue I did. By default the CK tries to make you create a Mod.bsa and ModTextures.bsa; this fucks up and fails because reasons. But if you run the BSA creator program yourself, outside the CK, and pack everything into one BSA - so you have modname.esp and modname.bsa, and that's it, it works just fine. why the CK defaults to making multiple BSAs for a single mod is Bethesda at its peak, but go into your SSE dir and somewhere in there is a tools subfolder with the appropriate BSA packing program. Archive.exe maybe?e: for the record I love the recent saga of your posting being "I installed 150 mods and it all worked, nice" followed by a chain of mod-related fuckups Psion fucked around with this message at 19:04 on Nov 7, 2016 |

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. Same thing with Strip Open / Freeside Open in FNV, whatever the Open Fallout 3 was, Oblivion, whatever. Any mod which touches city cells - which is a lot of them - is probably going to puke on open city-style mods. and i'll take your word on it the SSE version is stable and performs well because that certainly wasn't the case in the good old days of "doesn't know how to address more than 2GB RAM natively" Bethesda era - so yes, cell splitting for stability was the right call on Bethesda's part. If that's different in SSE, that's good.

Internet Wizard posted: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. AddItemMenu does this, and it's pretty great. Dunno if it exists for SSE, it's probably SKSE-as-gently caress considering

Cabal is busy with real life things, last I heard, but they were working with somebody on AMB. Not sure if it was Skyrim updates or SSE conversions, I'd have to check. also I doubt many, if any, AMB textures are out of spec, so they should just be drop-in and go. KakerMix posted:FINALLY the biggest reason of all It's not even requiring blanket permissions. There's a very simple Y/N checkbox when uploading a file which says "allow people to port this to other games y/n?" -- if anything, SSE is kind of unprecedented. I imagine a lot of people who checked the no box were assuming it was something like "can I port this skyrim mod to dark souls" instead of "can I port this Skyrim mod to Skyrim 2: HD Boogaloo" and what I wonder is if you could get away with something like just uploading an SSE ESP or maybe just the changed meshes -- the absolute minimum required and no other files and saying "this mod requires you to install [whatever the Oldrim source mod is]" or whether that too would get axed by Nexus. it'd probably be a good starting position?

Depending on what cell you're loading into, and more specifically what mods you've got, it could be hitting a Skyrim memory limit (or whatever) and crashing out. qasmoke is a really basic cell so it doesn't push anything hard. Skyrim is more stable in-game going from cell to cell than it is loading a cell from scratch, so this kinda thing can happen.

Max Wilco posted:So my main goal in getting Skyrim modded was so I tackle the expansions and clear them off my backlog. Are there any mods that add to or improve aspects for Dawnguard/Dragonborn? I remember someone saying that Dragonborn was frustrating because the map's not helpful or something along those lines. Dragonborn's worldspace is small enough you don't really need the map either way, but I use a Quality Worldmap or whatever because it's great. Very useful Dawnguard mods include disabling stupid vampire attacks in cities (because they're stupid) and then not playing it until you're really bored.

KakerMix posted:because the same dumb community rigidly stuck with their 32bit EXEs because every person in the world eventually turns into the old dude saying 'WELL BACK IN MY DAY'. I'm not going to disagree with your take on the mod community but I am going to point out that when SSE came out, Legendary had years of improvements and a much more robust mod scene. We're in the modding thread - that's not a completely irrelevant point to make. I'm sure many people were cranky old gamers yelling at 64-bits to get off their lawn, but there are real and genuine reasons for modders to stick to Legendary instead of SE. even now anyone doing graphics mods has to put up with SE's better base engine but much worse ENB support, script modders have to...well, write Legendary mods instead of SE because lmao skse, etc. Personally I'd love to move to SE but I've already played Skyrim. now I just try mods, change things about mods in the CK, pretend I'm going to learn how to write my own mods, etc, and that means sticking with Legendary until the SE toolchain is up to par

Agents are GO! posted:Mator Smash is not ready for primetime, but wrye bash isn't either. Make a tes5edit merged patch. I've been using mator's mod merge program instead of tes5edit to merge patches and I like it so far. Have you tried it? Although - I'm probably using it for different reasons than a tes5edit merged patch; I'm just collapsing groups of mods into single ESPs to make my load order less of an impossible hellscape. Stuff like environment mods into one merge, texture/mesh mods into another, all the basic building blocks I put in every MO profile. I'd rather have to check "All aMidianBorn Stuff Merged" in MO instead of 16 different checkboxes, that kind of thing. it will also, eventually, let me pretend I don't have hundreds and hundreds of mods installed!

wormil posted:So it's the followers using up memory. Your freezing issues are entirely on another level, but I wanted to touch on this point because you're absolutely correct that followers hit your resources (vram, etc) harder than you might think. If you ever see someone who's carefully posed 3497 followers from individual follower mods into a screenshot, the game probably crashed 300 times in the process. Also, you should probably block them. Unlike the PC and all vanilla NPCs, which share a single set of body meshes and textures (whether the default the game comes with or a replacer you installed), which is nice and memory efficient, followers are usually standalone. Which means while they may use the same body mesh or texture set you already use, they don't share it. They're targeting their own, standalone version. Which means you're now loading twice the meshes/texture sets whenever you're in the same cell, and this is compounded by a lot of people thinking 8.8.8 uncompressed is the only format to save their 8K skin textures in. there are a bunch of things you could do to reduce this load, from the easy to the absurd but since it only matters when you're in the same cell as a follower and they all have their own consequences, ehhhhhhhhhh just don't install 437 followers at once although again, your problems point to another root cause and not followers so this is sort of a tangential post at best!
