TBH I'm not sure if it was stable. I got a popup in Vortex and clicked the link. That made me assume it was, but I've been wrong before.

I have learned my lesson again to wait for a week or two after updates. Somehow, it is "Waiting for other operations to complete" for 5-10 minutes anytime I deploy, which it requests every time I start Vortex. (Not just the first time). If I rollback I'd have to redo all my rules, I guess? Well I have 1590 mods on a Skyrim install. Not gonna be doing that. Guess I'll play something else until the update.

With the newest Vortex update, and having changed nothing else, it seems Vortex will not deploy and is stuck at 'Waiting for Other Operations to Complete.' Is this a new bug?

There's also an unofficial chinese translation. From what I hear it even translates signs. And there may be a japanese voice translation

I was thinking a mod that allows you to change Cidhna Mine into a place where workers are paid and contracted, rather than slave-prisoners, it would be cool. After you finish "No One Escapes Cidhna Mine," you could (not sure how you would handle this) convince the Silver-Bloods that what they're doing is wrong. Or, could just have the quest be 'Eliminate the Silver-Bloods' and 'Take control of the mine,' or 'Steal the Deed to the Mine.' And have it be populated by generic NPCs. Perhaps a mini silver trade, and a weekly profits chest (like the TG). Maybe even manage the business, who knows?

Heh, I just posted a mod request for this. I want to call it "Right of Refusal." TG and College already have one. I would also like for the Companions to just let you be a part of the Circle, and when you get asked to be the Harbinger, you can just refuse and suggest someone else. As for Listener, it doesn't make sense for you not to be, but the option to either: 1. Formally retire the position. 2. Commune with the Night Mother and go on a quest to find a new Listener (somebody who can hear her). Would be very cool. 3. Use some kind of magic ritual to give your ability to hear the Night Mother to someone else, as part of the commune. And the Volkihar apparently also give you the mantle of leader, I don't remember that from my last playthrough (9 years ago). That's simple. Serana should be the leader.

Also, True Directional Movement makes 3rd person back run just turn around. Very useful.

I would like a mod that allows you to refuse to be in charge of factions (each individually) and has dialogue options to appoint a new leader once you finish the questline, or to take the leadership yourself. I know this exists for Thieve's Guild and College of Winterhold (I'm using the College one, and AM currently Thieves Guildmaster, I wanted that one). But I am interested in the Companions. Just being a member of the circle and not the Harbinger. I'm sure there are more examples in-game. It honestly doesn't make sense to not be Listener, but maybe via communing with the Night Mother you could give the option to pass it on to someone else (like Cicero, if you saved him).
