gotcha, thanks for the clarification. cant wait, guys! thanks again!

so beta mid-march.. how do you get to participate in the beta? or am i misunderstanding.. is it like a beta-test where only a few will get to use, or a just more of a beta-version? either way, super happy that it is coming along this quickly! huge thanks to the team!

So recently, i decided to start a playthrough as a basic archer, using a few mods like ordinator, smilodon, and others to check out what new perks/spells there would be since im new to mods. I decided early on that since it was so fun to snipe things from super far away, that i would lightly role-play as a serial killer. I know this may sounds kinda messed up, haha.. but i just thought it would be kinda fun. I have made it so that daily, or every few days, i HAVE to kill someone. It can be premeditated, and be someone that i may dislike, or who wronged me, or simply said something to me that i didnt like, or it could be any bandit, or other natural enemy. Or, it could even just be random, where i randomly bump into a hunter while travelling, and decide that i need to spill their blood. So, while doing this, i thought of a mod that might be sorta fun to play with for this playthrough. The mod seems simple enough: This mod would make it so that your character has an incurable disease, where randomly over the course of maybe each day, or maybe more likely every 2-5 days, you get an uncontrollable urge to kill a person. And it can be any person, but you MUST kill someone. if you dont, you maybe get some sort of debuff until you do. I havent really thought of what the debuff would be, but something substantial enough to make it so you HAVE to kill someone. It might be sorta fun, too, if it had a pretty small time limit, to where if you get the urge for bloodshed while you are in a city, you might not have enough time to get out of the city to freely kill someone that would bring no crime.. i would want it to be like you really have a huge problem with this, and you NEED to kill someone, even if it will bring murder charges onto you. or at least you have to go hunt for someone down some corridor somewhere, and kill them stealthily, or kill any on-lookers as well. or maybe you have it to where if it does happen within a city, you cant go out of the city or it will be too late.. unless you play with the open cities mod, which then, idk.. just a thought though. but you would still want to be able to go into a house to do it, too.. so idk haha. Whatever the case, it would need to be like you really HAVE to struggle to live with this disease, and not just something where you can travel outside the city to kill a bandit, just to get the taste without any adverse consequences. Im sure you would also want to change the NPC's in the game to MOSTLY be killable with very few essentials. I know i suck at explaining things, and it's hard for me to get out what im thinking, so sorry about that.. hopefully someone kinda gets what im going for. Would anyone else think something like this would be kinda fun to play with? it could even be something like every new character you roll has a chance to be conflicted with this mental illness. idk. Again, sorry if these ramblings dont make that much sense.. i really really cant get out what im thinking well. If anyone else likes the idea, an has things to add, then feel free. I just think this might be kinda fun. because playing this character has been kinda fun. just shooting an arrow through somebody because i HAVE to, and then dealing with whatever consequences may come with that afterwards. you cant worry about it during your bloodlust.. that just not how this character's brain works. anyways... yeah =p

yeah, that is what i have been doing. however, being new to the mod scene, i didnt know if there were some specific place i should also be watching. thanks everyone =]

oh, ok. thanks for the info =]

Like everyone else, I am being impatient for the script extender for Skyrim SE. I have come here hoping that someone can point me to a source of news for SKSE. i like many others would like to be able to get this the day it drops, but i dont know where to look for updates on it, besides simply searching SKSE in the nexus mod site for Skyrim SE. Sorry for the noobness, but i literally just started modding when Skyrim SE came out. i didnt have vanilla Skyrim for PC, so i never was able to get into modding before this. So, please and thanks for a place i can go to look every day to see if it has been put out yet or not =]

im not sure how to tell if it has? however, the very next day i did a system restore to the week before, re-downloaded a few things that were lost from doing that, re-downloaded the most up-to-date driver for my graphics card, changed some of the ini settings to how i like them, got back on the very same save file and it started working fine again.. i really dont know what happened.. but it runs almost 100% better than it was now, except for in highly populated areas, where it dips a little, but then goes back to normal. i forgot to re-download the fps display-er(because i cant get the steam setting that is supposed to show it to work), so im not sure at what fps it is running now, but it seems like it is at least 30+ even at its lowest. In all honesty, it may cap at 30 since i think it does that normally? because i havent change any of the ini settings or anything else that un-caps the fps. need to do some more research on all of that so i can get it to run at a higher fps. but at least im satisfied with it as of now.. hopefully it wont revert back to how it was the other day when i made this thread.

So up until this morning, Skyrim SE was running SOOOOO well. I was seeing no visible lag or stuttering, or anything like that, and was playing with high and a few ultra graphics setting. I am also playing with some mods, but maybe only one of two that affect graphics/textures and stuff. most are gameplay mods. So this morning i reset my laptop, and once it was back on I opened SSE and started playing. I noticed a huge drop in frame rate. I dont know what the hell happened. just last night it worked amazingly. I made no changes to any mods or settings or anything. NOTHING! So i have no idea what happened to it. I was very pleased with how well it was working up until this morning. My laptop has Intel Core i7 -4510U CPU @ 2.00GHz 2.60GHz, 16GB ram, 64-bit Operating System(Win 10), x64-based proccessor, and a Nvidia Geforce GTX 850M graphics card. I dont have extensive knowledge about all this kinda stuff, but i do know that with 16 gig ram and this fairly decent graphics card that this should run with a modest fps. i mean, i know this isnt the most impressive computer or graphics card, but i have seen other people run SSE just fine with worse setup. I didnt have an fps counter running yesterday(or anytime before then, when it was working very well), but i downloaded one so i could see what its doing today, and it seems to cap around 28fps when im standing still and will go down into the low teens when im moving/looking around. it is very frustrating since it wasnt giving me any trouble before today. I even dropped the graphic settings down quite a bit and am still having this issue. really dont know whats going on.. Anyone know what could be going on? If needed i can give a list of my active mods, but i am thinking it is something else since it worked perfectly yesterday.
