Woah, I made Hjorik Greyhammer over a year ago and almost forgot he existed... and then saw him in this thread. Weird, but very cool.

On a totally fresh install after uninstalling all mods, wiping my Skyrim and NMM folders clean, and reinstalling. I did verify file integrity if that's what you mean by repair, everything turned up fine last time I did...

I reinstalled Skyrim SE for the 3rd time now, following all the STEP re-vanilla guides, even going so far as wiping my entire skyrim se folder (and the my documents skyrim SE folder) clean and allowing steam to reinstall it, however, every time I have experienced the same bug - at helgen keep with Ralof, upon entering combat for the first time I CTD... I can do the rest of the tutorial fine, however. I tried installing Alternate Start but I just get a crash within 5 minutes of creating my character with that now, so I'm completely lost. Worst thing is, the crash didn't even originate with me installing a new mod or changing any settings - I just started SSE up one day, and it starting CTDing like this, mods or no mods. It used to be entirely stable. So... anyone have any suggestions? How could I entirely reinstall SSE from steam without getting whatever corrupt files keep screwing up my game?

I've been planning to create a "nobility overhaul" mod for Skyrim that will allow for more in-depth noble titles, etc. Here's what I want to happen: Player completes quests that would allow them to become Thane in vanilla. Instead they become Huskarl to another Thane, at this point they can purchase land/houses in the hold from vanilla, get a key to a heradlry shop in the repsective hold where they can choose shields/cloaks from one of 5-10 hold-specific designs. Then they are directed to a town added by the mod, where their thane liege lord waits to give a few more quests. Most of these quests would likely involve commanding local militas against large-scale bandit camps and the likes, rather than the pettier tasks you completed for the Jarl to gain your first title. After a time serving the Thane, a position for a new Thane would open up, requiring the player to report back to the Jarl where they could pay around 10,000-20,000 gold to receive an abandoned village in the hold, along with it's surrounding lands. After that it'd play out like the Blackthorn house mod, with the player restoring a ruined town and being able to gather gold/crafting materials payed as tributes by it's citizens after building certain structures. I'd also like the ability to have bandit and potentially thalmor/stormcloak/imperial raids, sort of like Tundra Defense. So, here's what I need help with: - How do I set up ths quests so that they don't trigger until after the player has completed the vanilla "thane" status quests? - How do I make a chest that would automatically fill itself with an additional amount of gold each day/week? Would this also be possible with crops rather than gold, for farms? Or even firewood/quarried stone for woodcutter camps and quarries? - How would I go about setting up raids, I have no clue what to do with them. - Would it be possible to enforce a rule of only one thane title? (Huskarl status in each hold would still be allowed so you could buy all the vanilla homes) Also, I see a few potential conflicts, specifically: - If the player completes the civil war before gaining the title, the Jarl would be stored in Solitude/Windhelm respectively. Everything would still work, but it's kind of immersion breaking, I doubt there's a good way around this though. - You'd still get the Housecarls at Huskarl rank which is kind of weird, a bodyguard having their own bodyguard. Probably shouldn't touch it though, or I'd run the risk of f*#@ing things up/making the mod undesirable - How would Whiterun even work, since the titles are linked to the dragon quest? Perhaps the only way to gain the Whiterun full-on Thane title would be completing "Dragonslayer" So, if you guys have any tutorials on these (or anything pertaining to my mod idea in general), please share! Thanks! EDIT: I'm going to be doing this on SE, by the way, so I can't use any SKSE features...
