Hi, would be nice if you could switch off emoticons in a post in the edit frame. If I accidently forgot to deselect it during posting, they are there for good. At least I couldn't find a way to turn them of again. Karmamuscle

Excellent ideas.

Hi, I'm really excited to try T3nd0's Perkus Maximus (PerMa), but two of my regular mods doesn't work with it. Richer Merchants and Real Estate. I've asked the PCaPP (PerMa Compatibility and PaMa Patches) people to add patches for it and they've added it on their to-do list. However with the amount of work they've got ahead of them, I doubt I'll see a patch for those mods this year. So I thought I might do it myself, how hard could it be..? Never done any kind of mod making before, this seems like a seriously tough task. :) I'm starting with Richer Merchants, seems the simpler mod. The first thing the mod does is giving Skyrim merchants 3000 gold as a start. This works out of the box with PerMa. Then when you get two perks, Investor and Master Trader, the default amount of gold goes up to 8000 and 18000 respectively. This does not work with PerMa. My thought was that I needed to replace any default Skyrim formIDs with the ones from PerMa, otherwise how will the mod know I've picked the perk. Found the default formIDs, 00058F7B for Investor and 001090A5 for Master Trader. Then I loaded PerMa in TES5Edit and found the new formIDs, 043125A4 for Investor and 043125AA for Master Trader. Opened TES5Edit, only activating the involved mods esps; Skyrim.esp, PerkusMaximus_Master.esp and richer merchants.esp Added PerkusMaximus_Master.esp as a master to richer merchants.esp - I figured that would be necessary. The I try to change the default formID to the new one and it errors out on me. [richer merchants.esp] Adding master "PerkusMaximus_Master.esp" Changing FormID [00058F7B] in file "richer merchants.esp" to [043125A4] Record is referenced by 3 other record(s) Error: FormID [043125A4] belongs to a file that is not available as master to records in [98] richer merchants.esp This I don't get, I just added the PerkusMaximus_Master.esp, where I found the new formIDs, as a master to richer merchants.esp. I'd really appreciate some insight and help. :) I have December off and had planned to spend the first two weeks-ish on Skyrim with Perkus Maximus.

I use Windows 8.1 and like it. I really don't get all the hate it receives. Sure it is missing a Start Menu, but that can be fixed, just search Google. Regarding Skyrim, I see zero difference from running in on Windows 7.

Hi, I was wondering if it would be possible to create an ENB preset that only do shadows and godrays? Things like parallax, mist and volumetric rays, clouds and fog would be absolutely fantastic, but not essential. I will be using hardware antialiasing. I can't stand software antialiasing, so many flickering edges. :smile: I've tried a bunch1 of ENB presets and they all give too much of a fps loss for my eyes to like it. I go from a steady 60 fps to 30-35 fps when using ENBs. I've tried opening the enbseries.ini file, but quickly lost all hope, no clue what 95% of it does. :smile: I did just go back to non-ENB Skyrim, but those shadows are just horrible. Tried a guide to improve the shadows through .ini settings, but it is still horrible compared to ENB shadows. And running in the aspen forest outside Riften in the early morning really makes you miss those stunning godrays. :smile: I did google, some time ago, for an overview of all the various settings and what files do what, but I didn't find anything useful. Could be my search terms that were off. - Karmamuscle 1: Tried the following ENBs at some point. Realvision ENB, Natural Lighting and Atmospherics for ENB, TK ENB, Sharpshooters ENB, Seasons of Skyrim ENB, Phinix ENB

In response to post #11680734. It said the same for me, I just manually downloaded it from here and installed over the old one, no problems so far.

Its probably something with your load order, did you run BOSS after installing SkyRe?

Thank you ZeroKing, it helped alot. It still happens on occation indoors, but much more tolerable.

Hi, I read that it is best to cap skyrim at 60 fps and have done so using evga precision x 4.1.0 on my 680. Which has the benefit of the card not having to work as hard, which gives lower rpms on the fan, yay for less noise! :) However, I have massive screen tearing, everytime I move the camera. And I have no clue why it does this, the fps doesn't drop below 60.

I just got this aswell. No matter how far back in my savegames I go I cannot get this fixed. http://peecee.dk/uploads/012013/thalmor_embassy_door_missing.png update: I deactived the mod Enhanced Lights and FX and everything was fine.

Excellent read! :) Do you know if a non-default timescale can cause problems? Some hits on google says it can, but the information is on forums I never heard of. I've recently experienced a major increase in CTDs and save game corruptions. I started using the new timescale at the same time I tested out a bunch of new mods, was unaware that things remain in save games even after uninstall, so don't really know what is causing the problems.

Hi, after a complete mess up of my skyrim I decided to start from scratch. After the reinstall I did my usual .ini tweaks[1] and noticed some odd shadow behavior I haven't noticed before. The first screenshot is with my .ini tweaks, notice the stripes on the small snow mound in the center. http://peecee.dk/uploads/112012/skyrim_shadow_issue_003.jpg If I move the cursor down so the snow mound is at the top of my screen the lines disappear, if I reverse it so its on the bottom of the screen they don't. http://peecee.dk/uploads/112012/skyrim_shadow_issue_002.jpg When I revert the .ini tweaks back to default, the problem is still there, but just blurred. I know this is caused by default iShadowMapResolution values. http://peecee.dk/uploads/112012/skyrim_shadow_issue_001.jpg What are these lines and can they be fixed? They kind of have to since I can't remember seeing them before. :D Only mods loaded is Simple Borderless Window, SKSE and Immersive HUD.

Hey, I would really like a mod that will keep npcs like followers and spouse from reverting back to their default equipment. Its annoying as hell to load into your house finding everyone running around in craplooking gear.

I don't use skyre. Might aswell get this topic closed, thomriss' answer works fine.

1.8 and an Image of mods http://peecee.dk/uploads/112012/nmm_plugins_list_03-11-2012.png Excellent tip!

Hey, In my current playthrough I haven't been able to get a single item with fortify smithing on it. Neither drops nor merchants seems to get me this enchant. So I bit the bullet and created me some hide bracers with this enchant on it through the console. However, when I try to disechant the bracers, the game tells me I already know the enchant, which I do not. Is this behavior intended or is there some way I need to accomplish this. Regards ckramme

Was considering a reset of my router settings, thanks for the heads up. :)

Insightful reading, thank you. :)

Hey ya'll, recently bought the Ultimate version and I am having a ton of fun with it. A friend told me about mods, so I came here to poke around. :) I have tried several mods already and love it. As a lot of you know, some mods can stop you from progressing if you come to a cutscene. I first experienced it after Lothering and having no clue what was going on, it took about a day to find a solution. I was wondering how many of these stop cutscenes there are? Currently I run with the mods turned off because I don't want to miss anything, but that seems kinda stupid if there are only a handful of these troublesome cutscenes. Best Regards CKramme
