Well I'm not a modder, I just opened it up and started searching for relations in CK between Hearthfire and Skyrim where I found the tagged BYOH connection and that all mills that sell lumber are connected to a single faction where the transaction takes place, all linked to the values I edited; costing Y for X amount of sawn logs which I changed and reinstalled the completed plugin along with the DLC to which was only partially working, again I'm not a modder so I don't know where to start and the last mod I tried to work on put 50+ hours down the drain, my saved game is backed up and I have yet to find anything that changes the value of building the homestead save for the easy cheat mods, my expertise is with .xml, CK is beyond me

I did not, if I can't introduce it into my current game I'll just abandon it, not worth starting over completely for.

Save file sizes can affect people at 15Mb and others work fine at 30Mb expect it to always fluctuate a bit in size but, unless your getting lags I wouldn't worry about it, there are cleaners and other programs that can try to shrink down the save file but clearing out unused or broken scripts, a more sure way is to simply disable all mods that you can afford to turn off without losing data, log in-game, save, shut down and reactivate mods and confirm load order. I had issues with bloated saves and cleaners didn't help, turning off and on the mods cut 25Mb off my save file down to 7Mb.

I've had issues with my own Hearthfire mod, got it partially working by disabling hearthfire and relevant mods, going in-game and making a save without the dlc, then reactivate the dlc and mods then back in-game, if you try this, it will reset your house to when the courier is just sending you the message about buying a home and you will have to start over buying the deed and building.

Bah, uninstalled Hearthfire and reinstalled, resetting everything, the cost of buying the land is now working at 20k, the materials chest now starts empty as intended, but the log pile still starts at 20 and while dialogue when buying sawn logs is working, it still buys 20 for 200

I have Cutthroat Merchants loaded higher on the load order which doesn't alter the price, and I only edited the lines mentioned above, they have a TAR icon in CK

After adding the SkyrimEditor.ini lines to get creation kit to work with Hearthfire I simply changed the values of BYOHHPCostLogs to 1000, (build your own hearth house?), BYOHHPAmountLogs to 1, BYOHHouseLogCount to 0. This is the second plugin I've tried to make; the first was over a year ago and more simple than this, I'm trying to increase the purchase means of Sawn Logs to 1000 gold per 1 sawn log and remove the starting 20 logs when purchasing the deed which I changed to 20000 gold, as I find even low level with cutthroat merchant makes the game far too easy to make riches with scaling stopper and master difficulty and I'm looking to make a more balanced, more reality/less story objective based progressive storyline. I saved the plugin under it's own name and loaded it at he bottom of the load list, I have few other mods such as Better Vampires, CBBE, Skyrim Scaling Stopper, Apachii Hair and few other mods all working via LOOT and TES5Edit

I made an .esp through creation kit for Hearthfire, I changed the prices and quantities of buying sawn logs etc. saved it as a new plugin, activated and placed at bottom of load order, went in-game to vendor and still has old values, something I missed in creation kit?

Downloaded and installed Better Vampires 6.6 using the method recommended, bottom of load list, when in-game; game freezes for a few seconds every minute, had just became a vampire when I installed the mod. I removed the mod and bug persisted, went to an older save prior to being infected and reinstalled mod with no issues, became infected and after hours of playing, about 12 in-game hours before the transformation to vampire, the bug reoccurred. Bug happens indoors and open world, day and night. Other vampire mods I'm using are: No Sun Damage - Hoods and Helmets and Vampire Face Less Sunken Cheeks - No Sunken Face for females. In-game situation: first occurrence was in the Dwarven ruins hunting down Mercer and leaving the ruins as a nightingale for Thieves Guild quest, second occurrence with the clean save where I started by getting the translation for Gallus' journal in Markarth, the bug occurred after I became a nightingale and was approaching the Dwarven ruins hunting down Mercer, I am only running a few other mods: texture overhauls, CBBE, Deadly Dragons, level uncapper and Cutthroat Merchants and the bug persists everywhere in-game, my saves are all 30 Mb in size, this lag is really making the game unplayable, any suggestions or aid is most appreciated.

I'm looking for a mod that can allow me to adjust the buffs and debuffs as a vampire, particularly to increase regen even further when not in direct sunlight, this isn't available in the Better Vampires mod

installed and ran LOOT, ran TES5Edit as well, no change, still CTD when equipping Emperor's Robes or a variant

The vanilla 1 is causing me to CTD and I got some tweaks and customizations I don't want to risk messing with mod load order and am unable to find out what is wrong (my guess is the cloak), I'm really desperate to play Skyrim over the holidays so I am looking for a different outfit that I can replace the emperor's robes with, one that will also work for the alternate variants, Embellished Robes, Fine Raiment, Embroidered Garments, Noble Clothes. Refined Tunic works but the body texture is all weird and I can't find it as a separate file. I tried using a different armor to replace the emperor's robes but with no luck, can anyone take anything relatively story suiting and post a working mesh/texture with all the right paths etc. that I can drop in the folder to play over the holidays?

I have a handful of mods as well as loose files floating around, will LOOT remove anything? I have a lot of loose files I have spent hours working on and are not really replaceable

I don't run LOOT, I've a few mods and spent hours getting them in working order and I have no mod that affects the emperor's robes specifically and as I was able to get all other outfits working, I'm not sure what is causing the problem

I was hoping to play Skyrim over the holidays but I keep getting CTDs from Emperor's Robes and all the variants using that mesh, I am running CBBE and was able to fix the problem with other outfits by reverting to vanilla and working from there but, even the vanilla version of emperor's robes causes CTD, I've reinstalled the vanilla mesh and texture, this is the one outfit in the entire game that I can't get to work, has anyone had something similar or otherwise knows the problem?
