How would I go about editing the game files to allow for more officer billets/medals per OTS upgrade? Any help would be appreciated!

No good I'm afraid. The only files that have .ess in it are in my Skyrim SE save folder and they are all reading 0kb

I just went back to playing Skyrim SE for the first time in about a month and a half to find that all my save files are now 0 bytes in size and have changed to .tmp files rather then .ess files, and now the game doesn't recognize them as save files. I literally haven't touched Skyrim or any of it's files for all that time and yet now it seems I have lost all my saves! The only thing that has changed on my computer is that I updated to Windows 11 when prompted, but surely that can't be the problem right? I really hope someone can tell me what's happened and that my saves can be recovered, otherwise I think I might be done with Skyrim for good this time as it never seems to be worth the hastle!

Hi guys. I made a request for help in regards to this but I'm upgrading to asking a more experienced modder to try and do it for me after concluding that any more half assed attempts by myself was bad for my health! I want to combine two mods. I want to take the Elisif replacer from this mod: (https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/48587/ Note: Works fine on SE) and give her a hair from KS Hairdos (https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/6817 The hair I want to give her is called "Mhysa". I think it might be Daenerys's hair?) I know it sounds like a really simple request and, being honest, it probably is, but every one of my attempts have resulted in something going wrong (like right hair but wrong facegen/blackface bug). Could someone be really kind and do this for me if you can? I can offer nothing but my thanks, and the chance to make me look like an absolute muppet by how easily you pull it off! Thank You! PS If anyone's wondering why I want to go to so much effort for something so small, well, this problem of mine has driven me up the wall and I am determined to have the last laugh if someone can actually do this!

Thanks for the responses guys! Unfortunately they don't seem to have helped me figure out the issue. I did not have ECE installed so I tried installing it and seeing if that made any difference. Unfortunately I'm still getting the issue of the CK loading up the wrong facegen data for Elisif. You can see the exact issue that I'm having in the video that ocloki posted (thanks for going out of your way to make that video just for me btw, your awesome!), the face that loaded up in the CK is not the face from the mod's download page, or even what appears in game. So if I make the changes the video suggests, which unfortunately I had already tried to before, I get the hair I want but I also get the weird potato face that the CK generated along with it. It might help to clarify that other mods that change npc appearances, when loaded up in the CK, display the npc's appearance exactly as the pictures on their download pages, and there is no problem making edits to them if I wish. It's only this one mod that seems to be different and I cannot figure out why!

Hi folks. I'm having some trouble editing a npc's appearance in an existing npc replacer mod. This mod to be exact: https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/48587/ (Note: I know that this is a mod for LE, but it works fine on SE) All I'm trying to do is edit the characters hair to something from the KS Hair mod. The trouble is, when it comes to generating new facegen data, the face that shows up in the CK just...isn't the same one as in the mod. Like if I load up the mod in the CK and have a look at Elisif, she looks nothing like she does in the mod, and the exported facegen corresponds to the "wrong" face that shows up in the CK, and I end up with the hair from KS that I wanted but on a completely different and, pretty plain looking, face. I've tried following multiple guides on how to edit an npc's appearance but ever one results in the same outcome as I described above. I don't know if there is something about this mod that is different that I'm not realising, but I'm hoping that a more experienced modder here on the forum might be able to tell me what's going wrong (maybe load up the mod in CK yourself and see what I mean) and suggest a way to make the changes I want to make properly? Hopefully I explained my situation properly. I was kind of struggling to put the problem into words!

Aye, there will be plenty of people willing to help you with that kind of attitude :down:

I'm not sure how easy this would be and I have no idea how tot do it myself, but would someone be up for converting some of the vanilla adult hairs in the game to work with children? Purely so there could be more variety in the children of Skyrim than the basic 3 or 4 hairstyles that they have allows. Cheers for any takers!

Does anyone know of a mod that adds ONLY more options for hair to children? I'm aware of the likes of RS Children and TKAA but I'm not keen on the faces added by those mods (I use Rustic Children to give a more vanilla-friendly look) Alternatively, would anyone know how to convert hairs for use with children? (I understand this is more of a modding question but the one above isnt so I wasnt sure whether to post here or in the Modding section!)

Sorry for the late reply. My advice is get rid of that mod and follow the uninstall instructions on that mods Nexus page to scrub it from your game. From my experience it causes nothing but problems. There is someone working on a SE version of Enhanced Camera that should be out soon and be a far better option to enhance your first person experience

Do you use the Joy of Perspective mod by any chance?

Ahh thank you for making me consider the nifs! I do indeed use modsbut I only had the esps disabled. I found the culprit though. I converted Archery Gameplay Overhaul to SE for my own use but it turns out that it modifed the bow behaviour nif in the Meshes folder. After removing that all works fine now. Thank you! Btw just to confirm something if you can, NPC mouths not moving when they are talking to each other is a result of too many actors in one cell right?

I'm getting a strange bug that I never noticed before. Whenever I draw an arrow with a bow the bowstring doesn't move. The arrow is pulled back but the string just stays exactly where it is. This is happening even without mods so i'm not sure if this is a vanilla Skyrim SE feature iv'e just never noticed before or is something else going wrong with animations or skeletons or something? Cheers in advance for any answers!

Good survey. Plain to see from my answers that Morrowind will always be my number 1!

Lol yeah it's definitely that one i'm using! Heres my load order after being LOOTed and Bashed. Active Mod Files: It may be worth noting that I have converted a few of the mods I use from Oldrim to SE however disabling those ones did nothing to solve the problem. In case you need to know though, the converted mods are: Amels RobesArchery OverhaulArt of the CatchBards Questing in TombsCraftable Horse BardingDawnguard ArsenalESFCompanionsNoblisee ObligeSkyrim KnightsSolitude Exterior AddonUnique Booze Bottles Alternative Name versionVeterans Cuirass I'm also using SKSE64, FNIS and an ENB from Nexus. It may yet be a skeleton problem but I just cant think of anything else i'm using that could effect the model in that way :I

Hi! As the title says i'm having a really strange problem with two handed swords floating a good many inches away from the bodies of any male character that equips them (PC or NPC) I know that Skyrim has always had a small gap between the body and scabbard but this one really takes the biscuit! I've been trying to figure out why this is happening for ages now and i'm at my wits end trying to sort it. I do use mods but reinstalling/ deactivating them make no difference. I've tried reinstalling the game as well and that hasn't made a difference either. The funny thing is they sit perfectly on the backs of female characters so it's a male only problem. I have no mods that alter male bodies in anyway and the only other mods I have that effect weapons are Immersive Weapons and Better Shaped Weapons (and having read through the Nexus page of BSW the mod author is adamant that his mod could not cause such problems). I also have XP32 installed but that doesn't seem to be causing the problem either. Here's a few screenshots to show you what I mean. Hopefully someone has seen this happen before and can enlighten me what the hell is going on!
