I've been making some modifications to the Triss Armor by Psyke23 (using a seperate esp). I duplicated the armor piece, changed the form id, and changed the world model. I also changed the body model to a helmet from the TERA Armors pack (it uses circlets instead of helmets, and I want the helmet bonuses from Frostfall and the armor perks) and selected the "head" options in the model & the item properties. When I put it on in-game, my head is invisible. I'm a novice with the CK so any help is appreciated.

It doesn't have to do with the lights themselves but the light sources. The Creation Engine only allows for 4 light sources at a time. Any more than that and Skyrim picks the first light you aren't looking at and disables it.

Like we've said before it's an engine issue and we all have to deal with it (Bethesda would have to rebuild the lighting system to fix it). I find that with RLO it happens less, though I use an ENB so maybe I don't notice it because of the much more refined shadows. You CAN use Climates of Tamriel + RLO or CoT + ELFX. You just can't use ELFX and RLO at the same time.

That wouldn't do anything. The bottom line is RLO and ELFX are incompatible and can't work together, period.You've got to choose one or the other.

You don't have a lot of mods but running BOSS is always helpful. Also, like Lisnpuppy said, when you have a lot of things in a container/your inventory SkyUI will lag due to the sheer amount of items.

You can download it manually and then go into NMM ---> select "Add mod from file" ---> choose file. It will act as if you just downloaded a mod straight from the manager.

Try using the injector version of ENB. To do so, download the desired ENBSeries version and extract ENBInjector.exe, enbinjector.ini, and enbseries.dll, and enbhost.exe from Injector-Version to your main Skyrim folder (DELETE d3d9.dll!) Then, edit enbinjector.ini to your needs. For example, with SKSE, it would look like: --- [LIBRARY] LibraryName=enbseries.dll [TARGETPROCESS] ProcessName0=skse_loader.exe ProcessName1=SkyrimLauncher.exe ProcessName2=tesv.exe --- This might not work, however. I tried it with DxTory and it wasn't working. The reason for it crashing Skyrim is because both the ENB dlls and RivaTuner OSD are trying to "wrap" around the same program, causing the ENB to crash and the game as well.

Try running GenerateFNISForUsers and see if that helps at all.

Disabling Ambient Occlusion and Volumetric Rays kills the point of having an ENB, especially for AO. You can confirm this yourself, actually: Press SHIFT+ENTER in-game to open the ENB editor and tick the checkmark that says "AmbientOcclusion." It makes a huge difference, especially for soft shadows and small objects. Volumetric Rays are a lighting effect that's like Godrays for smaller objects. I highly reccomend that you ask SkyrimTuner for help at his forum.

I have the same issue with the Skyforge Steel Bow. It's caused by aMidianBorn Book of Silence - Weapons. I don't use that bow so I never bothered redownloading the mod, but if you have it installed, downloading a new copy may fix it.

Just for future reference I hope this teaches you that you need to always, always, always read the mod description before updating, installing, or uninstalling it. Always.

Most of Skyrim's textures are contained in a BSA, I believe. This will unpack them for you: http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/4804/? Otherwise look in Data\textures. You will need NVIDIA Texture Tools for Photoshop to work with the dds extension that textures use (https://developer.nvidia.com/nvidia-texture-tools-adobe-photoshop). Some textures actually use the .nif format, and you'll need to use NifSkope to edit them (http://niftools.sourceforge.net/wiki/NifSkope). My advice is to simply look at existing textures and how they're applied in the CK, copy them onto your NPCs and play around with them. This will give you safe enviornment to screw around with and not cause damage.

System specs? Using SLI/Crossfire often causes flickering. Also SkyrimTuner (creator of RealVision) has his own forum where he will directly answer your questions. It's listed somewhere in the description for RV.

Did you uninstall the ENB itself or the associated mods (Climates of Tamriel, RLO/ELFX, etc.)? ENB is only a graphics mod so I doubt it would have any conflicts with quicksaving.

The vanilla ini's aren't made for ENB mods and need some settings changed for it to work properly. Use EWI's ini files like SkyrimTuner suggests and see if you still have the weird sun. EWI's ini's have some unsafe edits so you should clean them with the recently released stability guides, but otherwise they should work fine.

Saw your other topic. Can you start Skyrim and monitor your computer's temperature? You can try programs like HWMonitor. If vanilla Skyrim crashes but lasts longer on a lower graphics setting it sound like something is wrong with your GPU or its drivers.

What kind of weird patterns? If they're just lines then like markus said it's just screen tear and you should turn VSync on. Otherwise it could be a problem with your monitor.

I would think it's an issue with one of the ENB patches, though it could be a host of other things too. SkyrimTuner (RealVision's creator) has his own forums where he can directly help you himself, I suggest you ask him there (forum.skyrimtuner.com).
