  1. I left that hole for rennn to stick his head through:-)

     

    @oliv897

     

    Ah yeah ok that makes a lot of sense now, yeah I would not be happy to see something like that either after some strange experiences too. I remember as a kid that some people would keep tarantulas as pets and watching those things eat lunch everyday for a week was the last straw for me and spiders. The sooner you don't have to live near a fish tank the better off you will be. The longer something bothers you when you are younger the worse it will be later on it life.

     

    If rennn does make a mod for you it would probably be best to just make them stop moving and not seen as enemy when you the player is nearby and like you said the stuff they leave behind could be found in something else instead.

  2. Don't some of the blacksmiths in the game say something like "let me know if you need something forged" or something like that? Maybe tie in any dialogue options to that if possible?

     

    The problem with paying the blacksmith to make it for you is that it will look just like simply buying it in a shop if there is not the forge animations to go along with it I think.

  3. So the opposite would be someone making fun of him then? I would rather say something to make him think than to make fun of. This being the internets and all I am surprised someone hasn't done it yet though.

     

    I wasn't saying I don't like the mod or that is is unnecessary and I didn't understand just how much he doesn't want to even see one of those fish so I made some suggestions but I am interested in knowing why someone is having a problem like this because it is something completely unknown to me. I can understand fear of tigers lions snakes guns etc but not something like this. There was a news report on tv many years ago that highlighted a company helping people deal with their phobias in the real world with interactive versions of those things in a VR game but I never thought I would hear about a phobia of the opposite of that. It really is better to help than to say nothing and if the person begins to think about the why of something it would go a long way in overcoming their phobias. They won't think about the why though if they are not encouraged to do so. I don't think bethesda intended to build a mental test that subjects you to phobias into their game but for this person that is probably what that feels like.

     

    Now to be back on topic, as the OP said if the slaughterfish were gone some quests would not work so maybe if they were not rendered and then frozen in place so they can't move or be detected as a threat so fast travel won't be interrupted by enemies nearby warning too.

  4. But they are dead floating guts up in the water they can't do anything to you. How do you travel through a marketplace then? Where the stalls outside have fish hanging from a bar or in a player owned house where they are hanging from a bar near the ceiling?

     

    Also they are items in the game not reality so they really can't do anything to you. I know you have some kind of phobia but what you have is not nearly as bad as what some other people have like fear of dogs or cats which is really strange to watch. The worst is probably fear of spiders or scorpions or other creepy things because at least with a cat or dog you know they can only go in certain places and they sleep around the same time as people but bugs and spiders always seem to get near you when you are asleep and also when you don't know where they are and they are almost completely silent so you can't hear them coming.

     

    You can control your problem because it only exists in a game and not the reality that you live and sleep in.

  5. After playing through all three mass effect games I can tell you that I don't want anything else to do with bioware!

     

    Hmm ya know some of those armors look like default skyrim armors particularly that one with the dwenmer looking helmet hmm...

     

     

    The site owner for this place doesn't want any conflicts with anyone over IP and if any of you had to run a site and got nastygrams in the mail every day about some files uploaded to your site were illegal yeah you would shut that down real fast too. Not only that but this site is hosted in the UK? Them some stiff upper lip folk over there with their strict laws and heavy penalties for breaking laws especially IP laws. I hate IP crap but it is not going away in our lifetimes unless the major countries of the world nuke each other or the mayans were right:-(

  6. Would be nice to just have a script that runs for your character and it instantly kills any slaughterfish nearby so they float to the top of the water and you just pick them up! Then you don't have to replace them or remove them from the game. This would also help with keeping your follower from going all OCD on slaughterfish every single time you get anywhere near them even when a dragon is flying over.
  7. Too bad there are not more sliders in the default game. Would like to be able to get my characters faces just right not just close enough.

     

    Pressing the console key ` and typing showracement then press enter and you get the character creation menu. Be careful not to change sex or race if you do it will erase all your skills and experience? You have to type in your name again and press enter when exiting that menu but otherwise it works.

  8. Exactly, no internet except to go here lol and not even additional browsers or anything just win7 with all updates and latest drivers etc. Use some old junker for the internet. Of course you wanna mod at some point so modding setup could be on the main pc too and the creation kit need to be installed on the same pc as the game.

     

    I have two SSD drives my m4 on the sata3 controller and another on the intel sata2 controller. The m4 is windows, drivers and swap file ONLY and the other drive is for everything else. I think that if you fill an SSD drive past 50% you lose some performance from that drive. Fill it most of the way and it will be slow. So if you split up your uses between two drives you should have better system performance. Crucial M4 256gb drive is now less than $200 on the net and 128GB is $100 I think. I wish I had the cash for a 256 m4 so I could dump this samsung sata2 drive to an external setup for carrying files around. Then I would be on the sata3 controller ONLY to minimize delays between controller chips and cut down on any problems between drivers of two different controller chips.

  9. Probably as a patch and the game will probably move up to 1.6.95 or 6 or something. There has to be some bugs there for pc version that will have to be fixed to get it to work right and they need to fix some bugs in the latest pc skyrim anyway so why not get both problems sovled at one time? I hope that is one of the reasons why they make us wait 30 days for it.
  10. Do you have problems with other games crashing?

     

    AMD video card drivers are notorious for crashing systems. I read somewhere that a new driver release fixed a lot of problems in general and with skyrim though.

     

    That power supply you have is only 700 watts... like I said if you have any other games crashing it would be good to know why and also you are overclocking so 700 watts maybe not quite enough?

     

     

    My specs

     

    Gigabyte X58A-OC motherboard with latest bios

     

    Intel core i7 960 cpu overclocked to 4GHZ:-)

     

    12 gigs of ram 1600MHZ running at that speed triple channel

     

    Crucial M4 128GB ssd drive

     

    Samsung SSD Pm800 256GB for program files directories

     

    Asus GTX560Ti 1024mb video card non overclocked version and 301.42 drivers

     

    Cougar SX S850 power supply 850 watts.

     

    Raven 2E case with sideways hard drive bays

     

    Win7 64 bit

     

     

    Sometimes my pc will crash while playing supreme commander forged alliance and it will crash hard with BSOD and stuttering sound but this is probably happening because I am overclocking. I have had this game crash on me like this through several video driver revisions and system reloads. Skyrim will quickly crash as black screen and then I am back and the desktop if I play for a long time for example AFK to go take care of some stuff and then come back and my system crashed. But if I play for 10 hours straight it will occasionally crash after that.

     

    I haven't run the latest firmware on my m4 drive yet the one that fixes the longer than 5000 hours and corrupt drive bug because I am nowhere near 5000 hours on that drive. Planning another system reload soon and I will do it then. Also there is one beta bios for my board that does something with improving raid on the sata3 controller so I want to look into that too.

     

    Ultimately though I think it has a lot to do with overclocking, if you can image your system for backup, reload it as clean system use the image later to get back to where you were, get rid of overclock and only install drivers and windows updates etc no extra programs like antivirus and office or java, nothing else except the basics and then skyrim with v1.5 and then try it vanilla for a few days then move up to v1.6 and see if it gets better or worse. If you still get small crashes where it just goes back to desktop after a long while then it will probably be ok but if you overclock again and it crashes a lot again you might have to adjust your overclock settings. I had a lot of hard crashing while trying to find the sweet spot for my cpu when overclocking. The voltage is hard to get just right but thankfully the X58 platform is a tank when it comes to overclocking! So much room to play with voltage but sandybridge is a fine edge! You can kill a sandy with just a tad too much voltage to the cpu! That and the chipset blunder by intel when sandy first came out is why I stuck with X58. Oh sure I would like to have a core i7 990x but not worth a grand to me. Anyone selling one cheap is selling an old beat down horse on its last legs lol. So I will be stuck with this 960 for a long long time. When first overclocking I had a lot of crashes until I got close to where I am now. Just a little undervolted and games like bulletstorm and mw3 would crash easily. Even windows would crash if I had too many things running for too long but once I got that voltage just right it was ok.

     

    At least you don't have the latest intel system with the crappy overclock problems and the crap tin design on the cpu. Socket 2011 is overrated and cost way too much. Maybe four years from now there will be something good to move up to but sandybridge is it for now. I thought about going amd with their new cpu but it sucks compared to even x58 system lol.

     

    Forgot to add that when my MCH reaches 65 degrees celcius or higher my system will crash! That only happens when room temp is high from summer time or lack of AC. I have that bg square scythe ninja something cpu cooler, the one that has only one fan but can hold four fans. I thought when building my system that it would be great for passive cooling in this case if I got a fast exhaust fan and turned the stock intake fans 180mm all the way up but no it has to have a fan on top of the cooler pulling air through it to stay cool while overclocking. I suppose it would be fine without a fan if I wasn't overclocking but I didn't build this system to run at stock speeds. That cooler looks great in my system though:-) I want some higher volume intake fans but nobody makes 180mm fans that have good performance and good lighting in fact there are only two or three choices with fans of that size. I can't afford to watercool and I don't want to deal with the mess and maintainence that comes along with it.

     

    My case sits on a desk so there is no speculation about dirt in the fans or hot air building up under a desk above the pc. If you have your pc on the floor you might just try putting it on a desk or at least getting it out from under a desk so any hot air can get away from the pc and not cycle back around to the intake fans.

  11. Hmm...

     

    Okay I forgot about that bug in riften where blade of the rift is not given as a reward for becoming thane and I don't see anything in the favor section for riften just the other holds. So how does the game know how to work out the thane of the rift quest then?

  12. Well meddling around in the creation kit I found it for the solitude thane quest where the leveled weapon is given. When in creation kit go to character/quest/favor and the thane quests are right there.

     

    Doubleclick favor252 for the solitude thane quest and click on quest aliases tab. Look at the bottom of the list of stuff there and you see jarlweapon!

     

    Doubleclick jarlweapon and you will notice it is called a reference alias:-)

     

    So you could close that and then right click the next line under jarlweapon and select new reference alias then choose from the create reference to object list the item you want to also get for being thane!

     

    Looks like I need to find a way to get each hold shield onto an object list that is selectable there it is quite a long list!

     

    Here I was thinking I needed to get into papyrus or something complicated lol. Well at least I found it now I just need to do it:-)

     

    Any tips that anyone wants to drop in would be appreciated though.

  13. @stemin

     

    New here so I don't know what scripts you are talking about. Where to change what the jarl of each hold gives you? Looking through the creation kit I don't see it. I was able to get a private ebony armor mod going for myself and I tossed it into the leveled items list so it would appear all over shops and forges and cave clearing rewards but something specific like a particular quest list where is that?

  14. Something that really bugs me is my character appearance in game. I play as a nord male so far and he looks old no matter what I do he still kinda looks old and the default hair sucks. I am using that hair that is just combed to the back but there is a small hippie ponytail at the back. I really hate that ponytail and the other hairs are not male or just not male to me lol. I tried apachiisky hair but it really is mostly for women, some of the male hairs from there make my character look like michael landon and one makes him look like nathan explosion. The short roman dude hairs are not my style and some of the other male hairs I dunno why make me think he smells bad? Weird lol.

     

    Are there any normal male hair mods that look higher poly better textures but don't look metro or out of place? I looked through a lot of hair mods on here but I am not sure if I am seeing all hair mods. Maybe try by category this time instead of search terms. I have adult content unblocked too so I should see everything available right?

  15. No, there needs to be a mod that sets her as a follower and then just lead her up to ol botheia bothelia whatever temple and sacrifice her on that alter up there! Would be nice to see the ebony blade shoved through her body on that alter:-)

     

     

    Of course only after you finish the main quest and all that hehe:-)

  16. Ok so it was under shock category, for some reason I thought it was under fire category. Yeah make it an enchantment for swords, maces, hammers etc it will go along well with the undead flee or banish to oblivion enchantments too. Don't know if it will happen a percentage of the time or all the time but would be nice to have for weapons instead of depending on mage abilities for people like me that don't like to play with magic so much.
  17. How to get rid of the days as a warewolf bug? I completed the quest for removing warewolf/lycanthropy and it worked but after a while I started getting those remarks from the guards about fur in my ears and muzzle my dog at night. Then I noticed the days as a warewolf stat was going up even though I cured lycanthropy! I can get a well rested sleep too so it is an on and off thing I dunno? Tried some commands that don't work the game says doesn't recognize them.
  18. Those are not different dragons all those dragons are actually just alduin swooping down and eating those lost people in the fog. When you beat alduin they walk over to where you meen tsun and thank you for what you did. Don't stay too long in sovengarde though because there seems to be a bug where if you walk too far away, tsun tries to follow you and gets stuck then you can't go back. So talk to the people in the fog before you find tsun. I found the high king only once, after that I couldn't find him again and he was the only character that didn't show up after beating alduin so I guess alduin ate him before I beat him lol.

     

    When you first appear in sovengarde just keep walking forward it all goes downhill and then you get to tsun he is standing in front of a backbone looking bridge. I last found the high kind over to the left somewhere and before finding kodlak but after finding that scardy cat stormcloak guy. Alduin swooping down never attacks me because I keep using the clear skies shout that clears out his fog so he only goes where there is fog it seems.

  19. There is a perk for fire destruction magic that incinerates a target hit by fireball or fire at a certain high level. Can this be made into an enchantment for swords? Would be great to literally burn through your enemies with a sword or some other weapon like that.
  20. Don't forget something to make the npc at forges get the hell out of your way after you start using something they were just using. For example when you want to use the forge and they are using it, you keep pressing buttons until they quit using it and let you use but then they have to stand on your head or on your hands while you are using it and say dumb things like huh? What? indicating that you are too close to them or in their personal space and it is creeping them out.
  21. I really hate to travel normally because my follower will always attack any fish in the water that we get anywhere near! Also they only attack with bow so it takes them a really long time to kill the stupid fish and by that time some bandits or a dragon have nearly killed us! Is there a mod that makes fish no longer register as a target to followers?
  22. Oh man that sucks because there is some mods on here that let you change what your followers are wearing when they are at home and not following you and you are saying that eventually no matter what you do, your followers will default back to their steel armor or whatever after a while?

     

    I wanna start using those follower can wear anything mods in my next playthrough but if they are just gonna switch out after I leave and come back then it is a waste of time. I wanted to eventually have my followers wearing nice clothes and jewelry when they are not at home and some of the female followers only housecarls actually may be a bit skimpy hehe:-)

     

     

     

    Edit

     

    Hey would this be tied to the mannequins issue in solitude player house too? Where items on mannequins can be copied after removal or something like that?

  23. I couldn't find anyone in the game that wanted to follow me that I thought deserved that fate so I just never completed that quest. Now if a mod can make some npc into followers well, then this quest is worth doing because some normally non follower npc DESERVE this fate lol.
