Hi everyone, I've been working on creating paint jobs for Canadian Power Armour and military fatigues and I just wanted to share my results. https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/45932 I probably should have waited until July 1, but I wanted to release it asap. I hope you enjoy it! Feedback welcome.

I've had issues trying to upload a new version of my mod for several days now .... Around 250MB took over 5 hours ... ---------------------------------- Pinging files.nexus-cdn.com [185.246.209.245] with 32 bytes of data: Reply from 185.246.209.245: bytes=32 time=40ms TTL=55 Reply from 185.246.209.245: bytes=32 time=33ms TTL=55 Reply from 185.246.209.245: bytes=32 time=47ms TTL=55 Reply from 185.246.209.245: bytes=32 time=40ms TTL=55 Ping statistics for 185.246.209.245: Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss), Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds: Minimum = 33ms, Maximum = 47ms, Average = 40ms ---------------------------------- Seems ok I guess, but the uploads are horrible.

You cannot play with two vampire mods at once. They will ALWAYS conflict, sorry. You'll have to choose one or the other.

I am having a very frustrating issue; I cannot upload my latest version of Better Vampires to the Nexus. I have tried multiple browsers, put in bug reports and help requests, checked all router options here, and nothing >< I am able to upload smaller files (around 1.5 MB) but I cannot get my main file (around 25 MB) to upload. I have even used Google Chrome to check uploading progress and it never gets past 0%. Has anyone else had this issue before? Any help is greatly appreciated!

I have successfully used the Input.Tapkey() command to create customizable hotkeys for the shouts in my mod, Better Vampires, but I cannot for the life of me get the script to tap or hold a mouse button down ... Here is a sample of my script. This snippet is intended to cast Mortal's Mask by equipping it in the left hand, then simulating a RMouse button press to cast it. If BVKeyPressed == BVMortalsMaskHotkey If Game.GetPlayer().HasSpell(VampireRemoveHateSpell) Game.GetPlayer().EquipSpell(VampireRemoveHateSpell,0) Int MappedLeftKey = Input.GetMappedKey("Left Attack/Block") Input.HoldKey(MappedLeftKey) Utility.Wait(3.0) Input.ReleaseKey(MappedLeftKey) EndIf EndIfWill Input.Tapkey() and Input.Holdkey() not work for simulating mouse buttons? They work perfectly fine for keyboard keys. I am using all the correct DXScancodes too - I've confirmed that the MappedKey is 257 (the RMouse button). Any help woudl be greatly appreciated! Can I do this differently? P.S. Ive already tried using the Cast spell procedure, but it casts automatically and doesn't use any Magicka. Also, with the cast procedure, once-a-day powers can be spammed indefinitely, so I wanted to make the use and casting as normal as possible.

Well, I started up a new character and went to become a vampire lord and it works fine with my mod here ... so I'm very confident in saying that it isn't Better Vampires causing issues. Thanks for posting your extensive load order. My best guess would be to disable and/or remove the Vampire Lord Flys mod; I think it may be the source of your crashing. It looks like your mod order is sorted ... you do use BOSS right?

Here is what my screen looks like with the image in my MCM. I have tried saving it in dxt1, dxt3, and dxt5 formats to no avail. They all seem to be enlarged from their resolution in Photoshop and they become distorted and fuzzy. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/1464949/2013-04-23_00001.jpg

Yes, I've tried that but then the image is just larger and extends past the boundaries of the MCM window. I don't understand why any image I use, regardless of original size, seems to be enlarged and becomes pixelated.

I am reposting this because I think I originally had it in the wrong forum. _______________________________ I've tried to look around a lot, but I've reached a bit of a snag ... I want to place vampire progression charts on the last 3 pages of my MCM for easy reference. They were orginally PNG files and I have converted them to DDS files using dxt1, dxt3, and dxt5 formats using Photoshop and the Nvidia plugin. I'm fairly good at using Photoshop, but I feel I am missing something. No matter what image size or format I choose the images all seem to be resized (expanded) when viewed in the MCM and they are fuzzy and the text is very difficult to make out. Is this a common problem or am I just screwing something up? https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/1464949/2013-04-23_00001.jpg Any help would be greatly appreciated so I can make my charts easier to read for those using my mod. Thanks!

I just wanted to say thank you for all of your hard work JJC! Unexpected things happen and I wish you the best while we wait for an update. You've built an amazing mod and I'll be patient while I wait for the culmination of all your work ;)

I'd suggest you go with the second vampire mod ... it's my favourite ;) If your game crashes at startup, then you are missing a required master file. My mod (http://skyrim.nexusmods.com/mods/9717), if you are using the Dawnguard version, requires the latest update and Dawnguard to load. I suggest you update Skyrim to the newest version and then my mod, or theirs I assume, should work fine for you.

Congratulations! Thanks for everything! I look forward to many, many years in the future :)

I have added a special something to the optional files section of my mod that I would like you to check out! Better Vampires 5.4 This file will slightly reduce the height of your Vampire Lord's collision box so you can more easily pass through doorways etc. It will be included in my next update as part of the package, but I wanted people to try it now. It may be easier or look more natural if you are not levitating at the time. P.S. I cannot make your VL first person, sorry ><
