what is the best mod for increasing fps, in skyrim specifically? or is there a way to tweak it in the ini? not the skyrim se, just the normal version.

what is the best mod for increasing fps? or is there a way to tweak it in the ini?

what about the original version? i am eligible for the new skyrim but i installed the original instead thinking it would work better on my computer and i believe i meet system requirements, my specs are : Windows 7 Professional OS Processor: AMD Phenom II X2 B59 Processor 3.40ghz 16gb ram memory 64 bit system graphics: ATI Radeon HD 4200 storage: 171 gb is there anything here that would keep me from playing? like i said, it loads and the resolution is beautiful, it just takes forever to load and when it does my character runs as if in slow motion. is there something in the ini file that i could tweak?

hi all, been away for a while, my old computer finally up and died on me, and when i was finally able to get a new one, well, it isn't as powerful as the other. the guy at the store told my husband i'd never be able to play skyrim on this one, but he was really pushing the expensive gaming computers so i have a sneaking suspicion he just wanted a bigger commission lol. i can get skyrim to load, i have steam installed and skse and all my mods etc on mod organizer just like before. but my character is running in slow motion every time i load! is there a way to fix this? should i get the memory blocks log mod or something similar? i installed everything on medium resolution, like it recommended. the graphics card on this new computer is an ATI Radeon HD 4200. please if anyone has any suggestions to speed up my game, please help thank you

hi i'm trying to create a child follower using the creation kit, and i'm running into some problems. first, i can't seem to give any existing child different hair e.g. apachii, and secondly and more important, they all wind up naked because they won't wear the clothes i try to give them (nightingale). how can i fix this? what am i missing? i've looked for video tutorials and found a ton on how to make adult followers, but none for children. can anyone help? any advice would be appreciated

hi, i'm looking to create a spell that when cast on an enemy, will cause them to explode from the inside out, leaving only ashes. i have tried and tried to figure out what i need for this in the creation kit, but my spells never have the desired effect. do i need to use scripts? if anyone can help me figure out what i need to do to make this spell work, i would be grateful :)

ok thank you moose109! that's a relief, i don't want my mods uploaded to other sites, mainly because i use some modding resources on the nexus, and their only request is don't sell the mod their resource is used in, and don't allow it to be uploaded to other sites. then i suddenly saw mine listed on another site, so...i freaked, lol i don't want people to think i allowed it and that i'm untrustworthy

about a month ago, i gave permission to the editor of modgames.net to use 2 of my mods on her russian site. as far as i know, she has only used the two, but i have found nearly all of my mods on another site, skyrim.2game.info, and i DEFINITELY never gave permission for anyone else to use them on other sites. they link it back to me on the nexus, and credit me as author, but the fact remains i never gave permission for this, and i can't read the language it's in so i don't know how to contact someone there and tell them to take them down. can someone please help me with this? i don't know what to do, but i don't like my mods being pirated, they were made for the nexus and with the exception of the first two, they were not meant to go on any other site. any advice is appreciated please

you're very welcome! glad i could help, i've only been modding for a little over a month myself :)

oops sorry i had no idea the link would blow up into videos right here! i hope this won't get me in trouble :( but at the same time i hope they can help you like they did me

good question! here's one instructional video i found on youtube, the guy is using fallout mod manager, but as i said it's probably easier to use bsa opt if you are already using another mod manager (i prefer mod organizer above all others personally) but this guy tells you how to unpack and to extract them somewhere else also, this next guys instructional videos are very good, and in this video he shows step by step 3 different ways to unpack bsa files i hope these help you, i have watched more videos on modding than i have made mods so far, trying to get ready! lol good luck

because this is a spell that shoots arrows from your hands, no bow required, i know how to spawn in daedric arrows that's easy. my mod allows you to shoot them from your hands using a destruction spell, and it works perfectly, except that you can't pick up the arrows that fall to the ground or you ctd

i asked this question a while back, i was told bsa opt or fallout mod manager can both be used to extract bsa files, and that i should put them in their own folder and not mix them in with the existing skyrim files. if you already use a mod manager like NMM or Mod Organizer, you could just get bsa opt, i believe it is on nexusmods for download? i don't know if they can separate the pex files for you, but i found there is a ton of instructional videos on youtube that could probably tell you how to do it, and if you need a specific program. hope i've been of some help, still pretty much a newbie myself lol but i've done a lot of research! lol i read too much i've been told :)

i recently created a mod that allows the user to shoot daedric arrows from their hands using a destruction spell. it works well, and causes bleeding on impact, but if you attempt to pick up any arrows that fall to the ground, it causes an immediate ctd. is there a setting i missed, something that can prevent that? some ppl want to pick up the arrows and use the spell. is there a way to stop the ctd, or is it a case of you can't have your cake and eat it too? lol any help would be appreciated :)

ok thank you for the info :)

yes, i haven't been using script, i'm very new to this and haven't learned scripting yet. about the only script i program into my conjured creatures is "defaultignorefriendlyhits" nothing else, no factions, keywords, or relationships either. if anyone figures out a fix please let me know, it would be so appreciated! i want to get my conjures right before moving on to bigger projects lol

does anyone know where i can find a link to a full copy of 3ds max 2010? i checked the autodesk site, and all i see is the newer versions. the one link i found online seems suspicious to me, it requires going through itunes and having an itunes account in order to download and open the link (which i don't have an itunes account anyway, but it still sounds hinky) can someone please direct me to a full, LEGAL, non virus link? i don't know what to trust lol

that would correct the problem for my game i imagine, but this is a mod i'm making that i want to upload? don't want to put out a mod with a creature that won't fight like he's supposed to

for her backstory, perhaps Mirielle could say that she is a descendant of the snow elves in skyrim that hid when being hunted by the humans, and that her ancestors were considering taking refuge with the dwemer like others of their kind had done, when word came to them of the terrible price that was being exacted by the dwemer in return for safe harbor (they must eat toxic plants and become blind) and decided against such a fate. instead they went to the shrine of phynaster and prayed for help. phynaster granted them the spell to let them live longer, and mara in her mercy decreed that never should they become extinct, but Mirielle's parents had eventually tired of hiding and let themselves die years before, and now she is searching for others of her kind. perhaps you could build another hidden shrine to phynaster, and have a small group of snow elves living there that she could meet and interact with? and give her the choice of continuing to travel with you or thanking you but saying "i'm finally home" just an idea, i checked the lore and the snow elves did worship phynaster, and he is the one that granted them the ability to live longer lives, and they also worshipped mara. by the way, she's a gorgeous character, i was just looking at her :)

hi, i have been working on a conjure spell, at first it seemed to be working perfectly, i conjured my creature and he fought, used his spells, all like i wanted him to. then i loaded him again another day, and he won't fight? he just backs away constantly from the enemies and does nothing, they shoot him full of arrows and zap him with magic and he just stands there like a lump. i have his traits set to frenzied, foolhardy, helps friends and allies, and his mood is angry with 200 energy. his magic, stamina, and health are all high. he has nothing under factions, keywords, or relationships, and no AI packages. i've made other conjure creatures and had no problem, what could i have done wrong? it's pretty bad when the guy you summon to help you fight just stands there and lets the enemy run up to him and beat on him :P i don't want to ditch the project because i think it's pretty cool and i want to upload it when i'm done. please if anyone can help me, it would be much appreciated

thank you! i'll use the 2010 version then, sorry i took so long to respond, haven't been well but better now :)

agreed, and i would definitely do the unmodded version first before moving on to the modded version, so people can see the huge dfference mods make :)

got the crashing to stop, that turned out to be a mod we recently downloaded, but dawnguard and dragonborn still run, even when turned off? could anyone tell me why this might be and how i can stop it? it never did this to me before

my husband just started a new game, he wanted to play just vanilla skyrim so we unticked dawnguard, dragonborn, and all mods dependent on them and began. but we still get the dawnguard coming to recruit us, and the cultists attacking to begin dragonborn. also, every 5 or 10 minutes the game crashes. it was running beautifully before, no probs at all, we have done this before. we use mod organizer, and it is showing everything unchecked and working properly, and the data files in skyrim launcher also show the files are unchecked. we could grit our teeth and play the dlc even though we aren't that fond of it, but the constant crashes are driving us nuts. so we checked off the dlc's and other mods and went back into the game, and now it crashes every 5 or 10 minutes, and we don't know what to do! pls help
