Mizuti posted:SKSE allows mods to execute customized, complicated scripts that could never be done in vanilla Skyrim. This allows all sorts of interesting mods. Unfortunately, SKSE needs to be rebuilt from the ground up to be compatible for the special edition, and it sounds like it will take months. Yeah I know SKSE isn't a thing for SSE yet but ASIS doesn't require it. Certain other things like Everybody's Different do not require it either. SkyProc patchers don't because like whats-his-nuts said they just create an .esp file that combines a bunch of aspects of mods you ran through it to make certain mods you have apply to NPCs, generally.

I'm not sure how much of my old Skyrim's crashing was due to memory limits or script heavy mods, but that nightmare is finally over. I'd rather play a somewhat stripped down Skyrim than one that unpredictably CTDs every 5-30 minutes.

Ynglaur posted:That's what I'm wondering. You'd end up grabbing Oldrim versions of mods (ASIS, Automatic Variants, whatever), running SkyProc, and then taking the ESP (and textures) over to the SSE Construction Kit, opening, and saving. I don't know if that would work, but I like ASIS and Automatic Variants enough it might be worth the effort. docbeard posted:It certainly feels like something that'd be worth testing, though you'd have to also make sure the ASIS Dependencies ESP works in SE as well. (Though presumably SKSE isn't involved there either so it'd be at least theoretically possible.) Also found this reddit guy posted:Diversity in the game is my #1 favorite thing, so I was curious to see if I could make Automatic Variants work in SE. Here's how I did it. This guide is for porting your already generated Automatic Variants.esp and textures in Oldrim. If you're not comfortable with TES5Edit I do not suggest this, as it's a little advanced.

Their site keeps going down but Interesting NPCs has a version out for SSE you can find here and it seems to work fine. Link for the Oldrim version: http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/8429/ Edit: Found Wyrmstooth which works with SSE Based on these two mods it seems that if you unpack the .bsa files a lot of Oldrim mods can work just fine.

Raygereio posted:To be fair: He's not entirely wrong in that reply. Your average mod user probably doesn't need an installation order to manage, in addition to the loadorder. Especially when your average mod user actually is clueless. I mean, we're talking about the sort of person who needs a 30 minute "how to install SKSE" video and even then they screw it up because the actions of unpacking an archive and moving a handful of files are too complex for them. And in certain cases not paying attention to the installation order can screw things up. For example dragons not giving souls was common problem that could be caused by people having sorted the unofficial patches' plugin correctly, but having the UDBP's files be overwritten by the USKP ones. I don't doubt his expertise, the beef I has is how hostile he is to users, the very reason that anyone pays attention to him at all. He couldn't be more of a stereotype if he tried, dude's peak is Skyrim modding and he will never do anything else that people respect him for. He just doesn't want you to know that.

No HDT support so no Because of no MCM that means Open Cities on SSE has Oblivion gates because Art is miles up his own rear end that he hasn't seen sunlight in years Oldrim quest/landmass/add NPC mods typically work just fine as long as they use vanilla assets, just have to convert the .bsa or unpack them.

Kiggles posted:I believe there was an open cities variant without the gates, but it was literally open cities, without the gates (either by laziness, or necessity) and because it necessarily borrowed arthmoor's work bit for bit (sans oblivion gates) it got pulled right quick, with much name calling. Art also does have an MCM option in Oldrim for removing the gates so there is that, it's just with SSE no SKSE means no MCM which means your open cities have Oblivion Gates by default. Really though, the Oblivion Crisis was a big deal true, but the real reason that Art put them in Open Cities was because he loves Oblivion, not for any real ~lore~ reason. That's just the wrapper around the real reason.

I'm on mobile atm but generally a CTD that just happens tends to be related to mods that alter NPCs, like ones that insert items into NPC inventories. I'd look at the Immersive Armour mods you have listed and make sure you have the latest and everything you need for them etc. I also don't see a bashed or merged patch in there which always seems to lend to stability for me. Also no, there is no utility to help diagnose a crash.

Like I doubt any of you guys did download it but turns out I'm a HUGE idiot when it comes to Skyrim modding and hosed the original Instant Fortress download. I've updated it in the Google Drive but I also went and got permission to upload it to the Nexus for Special Edition by the original author. I did the .bsa archive action wrong so I didn't include the meshes or textures required and included a whole bunch that weren't. The result was the Fortress would function perfectly unless you tried to use the music box, you'd CTD because the meshes and textures for the holographic dark elf that comes up to play the music would be missing. I've corrected this so now it works and wouldn't you know it the mod also shrunk in size dramatically.

I finished up Wheels of Lull last night. Was super rad but man I take issue with "gameplay is going back and forth through platforming sections with damaging balls that fly back and forth across the screen" ideas especially when there is no ingame justification for them. Taken with the fact that it doesn't look like trainwiz converted it to SSE properly as I ran into a few exploding meshes and had to use the console to get past a few different puzzles because of some hit box scaling bug with a certain fight toward the end. I also don't really like the 'no you cant use your powers you have to play it THIS WAY' sort of design as that runs counter to how Bethesda games tend to play. But man, the characters, voice acting and lore dumping owns and the visual design was great. The very last boss fight was wicked cool looking too even if it was a bit shallow. EDIT I also went and converted JK's Skyrim to SSE, the complete version as seen here. KakerMix fucked around with this message at 06:05 on Dec 30, 2016 |

Gyshall posted:i really want to get the full version of this for Open Cities, what did you do to convert this? Open in CK, then patch in SSEdit? Yeah you just add it to your game with NMM, load up CK and set it as active, change a thing and then undo or cancel that change to let the CK allow you to save and then save it. Then I unpack the .bsa (if it has it) and run the .nif optimizer on the meshes then use archive.exe under the "tools" folder of my SSE install (the one NOT in data, the one you get for installing the CK), verify the directory in the .bsa is good and then put it together with the mod file I pulled out of my data folder because that's where the CK puts it, combine them in a zip/7zip/rar file and then load *that* one in my game, open up xEdit and verify that it has the right header (44) and then load the game and see if it works. I haven't actually done any editing within the creation kit at all yet so I couldn't tell you what it's like to try to drag and drop the JK stuff in the open cities cell. I don't imagine it would be too bad as the JK Cities thing was all about using vanilla assets and no scripts.

Academician Nomad posted:The reddit starter modding guide was waaaaaay too intense for me to bother with. I got Mod Organizer for SE, got a bunch of interesting mods, couldn't get LOOT to work via Mod Organizer so I just launched it. Everything works fine. Your mileage may vary obviously, especially with more complex modding, but the barrier for entry is way lower than it can seem with the billion insane programs to sort/patch/merge/re-patch-merge/bash/rehash everything. Modding in Skyrim/SSE works in the sense that you load the first mod and go on down the line until you get the last mod in your load order, which is the last to load. If your last mod modifies an NPC to give her a different sword than normal and another mod that also adds a different armor set for her in the middle of your load order then last mod's changes make it to your game and the one in the middle with the armor set? That doesn't happen and you end up with that NPC with the sword but not the armor. When people talk about 'bashed patch' and 'merged patch' (two separate concepts) they are talking about 'mods' that are really just containers for the whole stack of mods you have that merge all the changes between all the mods. Using that same example you'd use a merged patch that has both changes those two mods make meaning your NPC gets that sword and armor set. Using that concept it balloons out to where you have stacks of mods that make all sorts of changes to the same NPCs and towns and dungeons that then get merged into that single merged patch that then presents all those changes to your game. If you don't use a merged patch you only get the last change made by the last mod in the stack. Sure it works but it isn't working properly. A bashed patch can be used for similar purposes too but personally I use it just to combine leveled list changes. If you have 5 mods that all add items to the random bandits that spawn in your game you have the same issue as above. The last mod loaded that changes something all the mods want to change wins and you only get those changes from that last mod. A bashed patch merges all those changes which means you can have those bandits spawn with weapons or armor or potions or ______ from a giant list that your bashedpatch provides for your game built on all the leveled list adding mods you fed it. Again, not using this works but you won't see the changes for any of the mods besides the one that was loaded last. This stuff tends to matter only if you keep playing this dumb gay broken bad-combat game though.

Agents are GO! posted:Hey Kaker what software did you use for updating textures? I'm trying to make a SE friendly version of Weapons of the Third Era (I actually have to back-translate it from a French version because that's really all that's still available) and I want to make sure I do the textures right. "Right"? I've only converted/ran the textures from Immersive Weapons through Ordenator because while digging to see about SSE conversion a few people mentioned it working just fine. I guess the original textures from the 'Dwemer Control Rod' are no bueno for SSE but when ran through that optimizer it fixes it right up. Basically I just tried the texture optimizer just to see if it would work and it did. I haven't attempted any other mods with it though. The other two mods I converted don't seem to have any incorrect textures or issues so I didn't bother.
