I've been having an issue where, slowly, saves seem to eventually crash out on me. Not sure if it's save bloat or something else, but it seems to reliably take until I hit the higher levels before they just sort of collapse. Was wondering if any of these mods were known culprits of this sort of long-term stability issue: 0 0 Skyrim.esm 1 1 Update.esm 2 2 Dawnguard.esm 3 3 HearthFires.esm 4 4 Dragonborn.esm 5 5 Unofficial Skyrim Legendary Edition Patch.esp 6 6 Unofficial Skyrim Modders Patch.esp 7 7 notice board.esp 8 8 SPERG.esm 9 9 Campfire.esm 10 a EFFCore.esm 11 b Frostfall.esp 12 c Hothtrooper44_Armor_Ecksstra.esp 13 d cursed.esp 14 e Immersive Weapons.esp 15 f EnhancedLightsandFX.esp 16 10 ELFX -

I am experiencing a crash related to the start script. I can tell it's got something to do with the start script because when playing with Alternate Start, it does not trigger except on two starts - the default start, and the 'camping in the woods' start, which also triggers the start of the main quest. Without Alternate Start, it crashes as soon as it loads from New Game.

Lookin' good! I'm really excited to play around with this, especially once it's fully weighted. CBBE sounds great since that's what I use for females as well.

The legs look kind of thin, especially around the knees, but everything else looks really good.

Games get mirrored plenty. I remember Twilight Princess got mirrored when moved over to the Wii because apparently they thought Link being left-handed (as he canonically is) would somehow confuse the perspective for the player motion controls (which doesn't make much sense to me)

One thing I would suggest is making sure to actually post some visual examples. Luckily, I think some of Magic's visual designs would fit in nicely, so I'll fish up a few for you. Here are some pictures of Jace Beleren, whose robe has a nice vibe for an illusionist or similar mage. http://www.wizards.com/magic/images/mtgcom/wallpapers/Wallpaper_Planeswalkers1_800x600.jpg http://media.wizards.com/images/magic/daily/arcana/506_mind.jpg Here's a couple pictures of Tybalt, a demonic sorcerer whose outfit has a nice 'dashing rogue' vibe. http://media.wizards.com/images/magic/tcg/products/avr/WorldOfAVR_Part2_Tibalt_am1k7w6rfh.png The second casts him opposite Sorin Markov, a vampire character. http://www.magicspoiler.com/images/Sorin-vs-Tibalt-Duel-Decks-Spoiler.jpg Here's Garruk, a more primal character whose armor might be a good fit for a barbarian type. http://ertaislament.files.wordpress.com/2010/06/garruk1.jpg And, a personal favorite, not a specific character but the aesthetic of the Orzhov faction has always been a favorite of mine, so I'll throw that in the pot - a soldier and priest of Orzhov are visible in these following pics. http://www.wizards.com/magic/images/mtgcom/arcana1000/1041_orzhovsoldier.jpg http://media.wizards.com/images/magic/daily/features/feat231b_294.jpg http://static1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20121217020331/mtg/images/f/fe/Feat225_15_kavu2yhaqh.jpg http://www.wizards.com/magic/images/mtgcom/products/guildpact/orzhov_styleimage3.jpg http://static3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20130123195808/mtg/images/a/a7/Feat231b_orzhovcleric.jpg As can be seen they favor a baroque, religious style with lots of ostentatious decoration, along with primarily dark colors accentuated by white and gold.

Fair enough. Offhand, Cecil's actual ability as a Dark Knight is the ability to sacrifice health for an area attack, which might be possible as some kind of spell. I'm just glad to see this armor come together! FFIV has some neat designs in general. I'd love to see Kain's Dragoon armor or the Paladin armor after this.

Wow, that's a pretty great looking helmet already! The shape of it looks pretty good, fairly accurate to the pictures.

I believe that one is from the PSP FFIV collection. Here's one from Dissidia, the design is slightly different but similar (different color scheme, though) http://static.giantbomb.com/uploads/original/0/1433/777239-dark_knight_cecil.jpg Here's a close-up from one of the FMVs, for more facial detail. http://fc04.deviantart.net/fs71/i/2010/299/b/0/cecil_dark_knight_dissidia_012_by_ashleygunville-d31laas.png I would also like to see this, FFIV is one of my absolute favorites and would be a cool fit for Skyrim.

It looks like that's a simple GMST edit. He altered a base damage multiplier variable. Not sure of any mods that do that, most of the ones I've seen edit the weapons' damage levels directly. Also, consider that because the armor system in New Vegas is DT-based, increasing damage across the board without a similar adjustment to DT will result in armor being significantly less useful, and in lower level guns having a considerably greater effect on enemies who rely on high DT like Deathclaws, robots, the Brotherhood... One alternative you could consider is simply lowering HP totals - I know Project Nevada allows you to adjust how much bonus HP both you and enemies get for levels and endurance, and I have to say that turning off the level mod to HP CONSIDERABLY deflates the 'why won't you die' effect at higher levels.

Looks solid. I love his character design and am a big fan of ghoul characters in general. It'll be great to have him and Raul accompany me across the wasteland - a nice trio of awesome cowboys. Looking forward to seeing how things turn out!

Bumping to ask if anyone has cracked the calculation yet. I'm good at math, so if I understood the values I'm sure I could work out a formula for what I want. EDIT: So, looked into fVATSDistanceFactor. What I've found is, if completely eliminated, it creates perfect VATS accuracy up to maximum range. This makes me believe that the VATS formula must be an inaccuracy formula, and DistanceFactor must be multiplicative - therefore, a value of 0 creates a VATS inaccuracy of 0, the same way that weapon spread is nullified by a weapons skill of 100, because when multiplied against a DistanceFactor of 0, inaccuracy becomes 0, meaning that logically, the VATS formula assumes maximum accuracy and then applies reductive effects like spread/distance/etc. Therefore, I need to figure out what factors other than distance INCREASE inaccuracy, so that I can figure out ways to lower DistanceFactor without globally increasing accuracy. My goal is to smooth the distance curve, after all, not make VATS perfect.

Deus Ex: Human Revolution has a lot of neat guns. My favorite in terms of pure style is probably the Diamond Back .357, the magnum revolver of the game. It seems to have a lot of cylinder options (maybe an expanded cylinder could be one of the mods for the gun? In-game it has a 5, 6, and 7-round cylinder with an 8-round in concept art but not in game, along with damage upgrades, a laser sight, and some other statistical upgrades). One concern I do have is that it uses a side-break reloading system, and I'm pretty sure I've only seen cylinder ejection reloads in F:NV, so that would probably require either just rigging it for cylinder ejection or doing custom animations. I'd be happy with just the model, though. I found a really big image, but had to resize it to fit it on the Nexus uploader, so here it is.`

Gotta be the Tops.

For clarification, Tales of the Burning Sands actually includes episodes one and two. It's just updated to feature the latest episode whenever more content is added, since all the quests added use the same framework.
