As the title says. Can you downgrade from 1.2? My fps dropped in 1.3.

Is there anyway to downgrade from 1.3 in steam? I have a noticeable performance drop. Even when I lower my settings it gets the same fps of like 20. I was playing at 30 - 40.

Yeah it would be cool for say melee combat if the trainer gave you a practice sword that is either wooden or extremely dull metal. The sword would do 0 damage or 1 if the game requires damage output to register a hit. The trainer would then require you to battle them in certain combinations of moves and blocks in a certain amount of time or before they strike you. Then give you levels for each task you perform correctly. It would be difficult to script I imagine but it is something this game should have had instead of the cheap tack on of paid trainers that magically level you up. BTW the woman archer trainer I was talking about gives you practice arrows for the minigame sessions. She only gives you 10 so you can only have a max of 10 when doing the minigame which makes it a little more challenging. The practice arrows do 0 damage but still can kill people because of the bow you use. From my experience with her I wonder if there are other trainers in this game for other skills that do something similar or did Bethesda only do this for archery?

There is a woman (I forgot exactly where) that lives up high on a mountain in the Falkreath hold just south of Falkreath I believe and she will give you an archery minigame where you have to hit targets in a certain amount of time. You get 5 levels of archery and you don't have to pay just perform. I think her name is Angie.

Not sure if it has been mentioned but give a salt pile more use than just cooking and alchemy. Food spoils. Meat faster than fruits. And bread gets stale and moldy. Give linen wraps a purpose along with the salt piles to preserve food. That is how humans preserved food before transportable ice. Also if you are in a cold environment and your food is not well preserved it can get frozen and would require a camp fire to reheat. Also would it possible to have a different skin or something along those lines for animals that have been killed and have been cut open for meat or they have been skinned. Think Red Dead Redemption. Also have animals rot for a mild time of ingame hours and make their meat not edible once they have started to rot. Allow trading with pretty much any NPC that is open to be friendly. Starving over the period of days will make your charachter lose weight like in the character builder and not be able to carry as much. To get back to full or desired weight you will have to eat lots of meat over the course of a game weeks/month. Have the ability to use weapons on top of horses. If anything let us use bows while on horseback. I can understand using melee weapons would be tricky but I cannot see archery being that hard. Obviously you will lose direct control over your horse once you pull out your bow and use both hands but also make it harder to hit a target when moving on horseback. Like make it require skill and make hunting fun. Give the ability to have your companion also have a horse. They are not my slave (well maybe a housecarl is) but I would like them to have a horse. This will be especially needed if we make the main player get exhausted after running and sprinting a lot in a short period of time. That is what your companion does all day! That does not add up. Horses require food (lol apples) and rest. Can't run them to the ground unless that is your style... then the horse dies. Anyway to make the game first person only including when you are on the horse or at least have the option. I could go on all day about how useless the horses are in skyrim. Maybe later. Oh and horse armor. I know that it is somewhat of a joke in the ES series cause of Oblivion but horses need it. I will think of more.
