Something like modern firearms tries to be 'realistic' as far as damage goes. There are a couple mods out there in the world that 'buff' vanilla firearms up to pretty much the same specs..... and it works that way for EVERYONE, NPC's included... so, in the early game, getting shot HURTS. But, you can also kill faster, without having to burn thru three magazines to kill one raider.

Does the VR version even support mods???

Bacon. I like bacon.

I run the 1060 6gb FTW+ version, and LOVE it. Runs ALL of my games butter smooth, even in the 'busiest' of areas. And that's with an outdated AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black processor.......

New PC Build - Skyrim Mod Files Management
HeyYou replied to hellfire28's topic in Hardware and software discussion
If the SSD is NOT your O/S drive, get the machine built, and running, and THEN install the SSD. You *should* be able to install NMM, point it at the right files/folders, and be back in business. You may have to reinstall your mods..... as I don't know where NMM stashes its profile information. I would not be surprised if the procedure for doing what you want isn't documented somewhere...... You can't be the first one to want to do it. :D -
As has been said, if you want free access to ALL mods, buy a computer that will run the game, and a copy of the game for the computer. That is the ONLY way you are going to be able to use the full scope of mods for beth games.
-
They come in a variety of different compression methods. Rar, Zip, 7z, etc..... 7 zip is free, and can deal with all of them. Sometimes winzip, or the archive utility built into windows.... doesn't always understand the different formats, so, will declare it 'broken'. I regularly grab mods from here via the manual download links, and never had a problem. (for TES, or FO games......) I don't use NMM..... it annoyed me too much in the past. :D

Anyone know what MOD this is from, so I can inform the author?
HeyYou replied to 8Phantasm's topic in Skyrim's Skyrim SE
So, go into the game, toggle god mode, levitate yourself up to it, open the console, and click on it. First two characters of the number that shows up, will tell you the load order number of the mod the object is from. -
Government: The root of all evil. Our government needs a serious overhaul. Unfortunately, I don't see that happening any time soon.
-
The government researchs anything that suits their fancy. The spent tens of thousands of dollars, trying to figure out how a frisbee flies....... You can bet your bottom dollar that they are also researching less innocuous stuff as well. Hell, they are likely researching some variety (or, several varieties) of FTL drive. But, they aren't going to tell us about it.

Major weirdness going on with my machine.

Fix the file path. That process is for dealing with connected devices....... Might wanna run windows update, and possible system file checker..... -
We don't have Star Wars system. That was a pipe-dream of Ronnie Ray-gun, and was never realized, as space-based weapons are prohibited in various treaties.We most certainly do have space-based defensive weapons. SALT II and OST prohibit WMDs from being launched into space, not conventional arms or warheads. Our best space-based weapons today are laser and are neither considered WMDs according to these treaties nor are there any limitations on their use. I've covered James Woolsey's fear mongering about EMPs in another thread and won't repeat it here. It's pure and delusional fear mongering intended to keep us terrified while keeping his own lifelong teetsucker paychecks coming in. No. We don't. We have terrestrial-based anti-missile systems. That's it. When Ronnie was pushing it, we simply didn't have the technology for space-based lasers. SDI died while he was still in office. It has not been resurrected.

IMO we should remember and/or relearn the lesson of Pearl Harbor: in the face of economic sanctions Japan saw no other option but to attempt a last and desperate pre-emptive strike. Even the idea of a pre-emptive strike was ridiculous, but their two choices were to lose or to first starve and then lose. Just like Iraq and now Korea. As for the impeachment vote on Trump, this one was forced early to give the illusion that he has more support than he actually does. But watch what happens as he travels down the same "everything is somebody else's fault" road as Richard Nixon (I think there's a song title in there somewhere. :smile: ) Since his first day in office Trump has given us nothing but vile attack and blame of his political foes, war mongering (yesterday's example: officially recognizing, unlike the entire rest of the world, Jersusalem as the capital of Israel etc) and abject fascism (travel bans on entire nations of perfectly innocent people etc). He has managed to redefine the exact opposite of leadership in our country, just the fact that he was raised as a credible political candidate and attained his office has signaled to the world that nothing remains to be salvaged of our country and federal government. IMO it's been the case since 1971 and Nixon's "opening the gate to China" for the multinationals. If a popular vote, or even one in our Congress had been taken at the time, whether to expose our free market capitalist labor force to competition with totalitarian Communism, it would have failed at something very close to 100%. That was and almost a half century later STILL IS the problem. The response and solution of Trump and the R's to this problem in their new tax plan was to altogether eliminate corporate taxes on profits earned overseas by U.S. companies in these Chinese sweatshops. What leadership! Saddam was not a threat. He was contained, and had no WMD programs. Bush knew that, but, he wanted the oil, so in we went. Even his daddy told him it was a bad idea. Daddy was correct. I get that you disagree with some of Trumps policies. I get that you don't like him. I don't much care for him either, but, he IS the president, he WAS elected. Now, he is leader of the country, like it or not. Do I think he is a *good* president? Nope, not really. He does a fair few things I disagree with. Some, vehemently. But then, I could say the same for almost every president before him too. Do I think we would be better off if we impeached him? Nope. Sure don't. Should congress start a chain of impeachments of politicians they don't want in the Oval office, until they get one they DO like, then I think its time congress got replaced. ALL of them. (which wouldn't really hurt my feelings in any event.....) I live in the midwest. Winters here have been pretty variable. We may get a boatload of snow, or we may not get much at all.... Or, we may get a boatload of snow, but, the next day, it all melts...... These are not the michigan winters of my youth...... I think in 2013, we got a LOT of snow. To the point that I was snowed in for a week, because there were five foot drifts in the roads here, and the plow trucks seemed to have forgotten we exist. (and the drifts were hundreds of feet long.... so, not something you could just bull through..... even with a 4x4....) That single storm prompted me to purchase a snowblower for my tractor..... Since then, I have used it a total of three times........ Hhhmmmmm........

Well, it IS Pearl Harbor day...... 76th Anniversary, and all that. :D I would bet real money the vote went pretty much down party lines.

And just where did I suggest that there are no minimum moral standards? I stated a fact, that's it. As for what constitutes that minimum standard, it seems the american people, collectively, don't really put much of an onus on our politicians for upright behavior. Unless they are caught red-handed, doing something patently illegal, (not necessarily something that is merely immoral, by whomevers standards.....) no one really bothers to call them out on it. Been that way for decades. Do I think that is OK? Not even remotely. Do I think it's going to change anytime soon? Nope. Not a chance.

The author has been active relatively recently, so, just to be safe, it wouldn't hurt to ask. :)

According to theory, there is an impeachment vote scheduled to happen today. Of course, I have been hearing the same song for several months, and still no vote..... Not morally qualified? Now THAT is FUNNY. So far as I have seen, there isn't a single politician in washington that is morally qualified for their job. There hasn't been for decades. ALL of them are corrupt in one fashion or another. Not to mention they are bought and sold so often, they might just as well be on the friggin' stock market. You want a beautiful example of a politician that feels they are above the law? Look at Hilary Clinton. Or Bill, for that matter. The scary part is, their wealth and power does indeed put them above the law. They can, and have, bought their way out of trouble on multiple occasions. I hear there are some folks in congress(?) that are attempting to delay the vote, to give more time for 'review'....... We'll see what shakes loose on that..

And just what is it he is supposedly doing? The net neutrality thing? That's the head of the FCC. (yes, I know, a Trump appointee.) Personally, I don't think the donald has a clue what net neutrality really is. Trump is a misogynist. That doesn't come as a surprise. Hilary covered for a philanderer. So what? If you think that would have been enough to knock either out of the race, you seriously overestimate moral values here in the US.

I'm assuming or at least hoping your question is rhetorical, since you know absolutely nothing about my political contributions last year. Your question also ignores the fact that no favourite candidate existed in the last election for many or probably most Americans. Our two practical choices were Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump, and if we had been required to sit down and intentionally come up with two worse candidates for president I don't think any of us could have done so. Our underlying two problems are a lack of term limits in our Congress, and an at this point entirely corrupt and dysfunctional two-party political cartel that operates in collusion and maintains control by perpetually keeping half of the electorate yelling and pointing fingers at the other half. Intentionally and on every issue. It works the exact same way in virtually all free countries, e.g. I can't stand watching or even listening to British House of Commons proceedings for the same reason. It's beyond ridiculous and counterproductive. This I am in complete agreement with. Term limits would go a long way toward improving this country. And our elections have been the choice between the lesser of two evils for quite some time now...... Unfortunately, some are not very much 'lesser' than the other...... And yes, folks get banned here for piracy, advocating piracy, etc. Mainly because, it's actually a crime.... Doesn't matter if 'everyone' does it. It's still illegal.

We are being ignored now, so, aside from having lighter wallets, nothing much will really change.

I am not entirely sure the question has ever been asked "officially" before. I know I heard it a few times shortly after Obama was elected, but, I don't remember seeing any polls, or much of anything else in the way of pushing that particular idea. Of course, Politics has been becoming more and more partisan as times goes on as well. The divide between left, and right, has grown enormous, and I don't see that trend reversing any time soon either. Doesn't matter which party is in office.... Instead of "doing what's right for the country", a philosophy that died years ago, (roughly about the time citizens united was passed..... probably before that) It's now more about making sure the 'other party' can't do anything good. Doesn't matter if its good for the country or not. Our government has lost it's way, and elections aren't going to change that. Impeaching Trump isn't going to change that.

No we didn't. Our Electoral College did. Since his first day in office, which btw he spent spinning the attendance numbers at his own inauguration ceremony, Trump's poll numbers have skirted with or set new all-time lows. Also I would really like to know if this has ever happened before in our history, where a majority of Americans have considered our president unfit for office. Please watch now as Mr. Trump hands our constitutional free speech rights over to Comcast and Verizon, to manipulate these rights the exact same way Google now intentionally hides 99.9999% of the world from us in strict accordance with the corporate profit motive and shareholder ROI. Trump owes Comcast/NBC quite a bit, seeing as how the latter steadfastly refused to release footage from the former's 1992 Tonight Show interview that, if it had been seen nationally during the last campaign, would have ended any chance he had of winning the election. If you've never seen this interview imo you should, before you even consider defending human garbage. And what makes you think any of that would change with President Pence? Trump most certainly isn't the first president to be elected, but NOT win the popular vote. He may not even be the least popular president.... (there were some others before him that weren't real popular either.......) I think this is a situation where "Be careful what you ask for." most certainly comes into play.
