whatever mod it was it has long been superseded by https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/27563

It's pretty strong thanks to an outer shell with an inner lattice, you could use it as an actual mask for event and parties. I expect it will hang on my wall for years. It's neat stuff and biodegradabe+made from renewable resources like corn starch: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polylactic_acid heh :smile: I think I will print up a "wall of masks" - interesting videogame and other media masks. I stumbled across that papercraft ordinator mask but it's a bit too low rez (I will totally be stealing the broom idea though :D ). I'm looking more for something like this: I think I will start messing around in 3d software myself, since I also dearly want a Dagoth Ur mask print but the sources are too low rez. edit: oh wow - found while looking for Ur mask

Found a model at https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:370069 and decided to give it a go. I'm well pleased with how it panned out. Now if only I could find a good clean ordinator mask model :cool: Straight off the printer, no cleanup or anything done: Printed on a Creality CR-10 S4 in draft resolution (0.2mm) over the course of 14 hours, no supports used. I guess I'll start finding out how to best finalize and paint this stuff.

So in what way are they not playing nice with each other? If it's something like "animal X is waaaay too strong" or the like I would suggest grabbing tes5edit and having a close look at the final values you get from loading both mods.

We've all been there, that moment where you realize you pushed the creaking old thing over the edge...

This is (by way of certain MMOs) usually referred to as transmogrification or transmog. There are several mods for Skyrim that do this but I haven't seen one for SSE tbh - but perhaps using this search term you will have better luck finding it.

https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/58562 should point you in the right direction if you're using vanilla building assets.

These are usually signs of running out of VRAM over time; in other words, too many textures that are too large for your system to handle consistently. possible fixes: - update your video card drivers - reduce the number of HD textures

"virtual memory" in this case is a file on your hard drive. When your PC runs out of physical memory, it will start offloading data to this virtual memory when it can. This increases disk activity/wait times. It seems likely this is your bottleneck - disk access. You could verify this by using performance monitor or similar tools to see if your drive is maxing out on loading cells. Adding more memory is a good idea - 4GB is a little on the low side and increasing it would reduce the need for virtual memory/paging operations, but swapping out your laptop's slow HDD for a SSD would improve things more I think. Of course, you'd have to reinstall OS etc.

I'm old enough to remember the school I studied CS at went from Pascal to Java virtually overnight. It was a little jarring. In hindsight, they were more teaching me how to think like a programmer and break down problems into discrete steps rather than teach me any particular language (whichever was the fad of the time). Which has served me well muddling with various other computer languages depending on the task at hand and with computers in general.

I think you are confusing your personal and subjective notions of "worth" with the objective metric in use both in the current hotfiles and in this proposed system. It's actually one of the few metrics that make sense - because everyone and their dog are going to have a different opinion on what is "worthy".

Is he still going? I put him on ignore after it became clear he has no idea about what making mods for either Skyrim or Minecraft entails or why the internals of one game would be more complex than the other, he just wants his one-click toys and to hell with what anyone else wants, even the creators of those toys. What a great member of the 'community'.

I'm pretty happy with the new site, I'm sure many others are, but complain-y people on the internet tend to make more forum posts. So I think your premise is false - you can make both mobile and desktop users happy and just because they've accommodated the mobile users doesn't mean the desktop users are now all pissed off. In addition, I would expect 100% of mobile users to ALSO be desktop users because why else would they browse the nexus? I've grown to like the new layout - once I got more comfy with it.

And yet you're perfectly willing to ignore the wishes of content creators while telling me I'm selfish and force my values on others. Hilarious, as funny as the "I have time to game but no time to read instructions" BS.

Well, if the authors don't want it, that's their choice. Right? Personally I don't care much either way, I put my stuff on the internet and wished it bon voyage. But not everyone is like that, and if you appreciate the works of those people and want to see more of their output, you should probably respect that. One thought I have is that minecraft and TES games are very different beasts in terms of complexity and if you think you can load up 150 mods and go off on merry adventures in any TES game just by clicking a button and then everything will be fine then you are deluding yourself. For reference, see the skyrim tech support section of the forums. And that's before even considering different versions of mods and patches being released and older versions becoming unavailable (unless again you are prepared to disregard some author's wishes and just reupload at will). And THAT is just the least of the problems I can think of with TES modpacks. Nobody who pours hundreds/thousands of hours into playing videogames should be able to say this with a straight face. It's laziness and nothing more. It's hard for me to have sympathy with a culture where an author spends countless hours on their work but a consumer can't even be arsed to take 2 minutes to read a description page to understand how to install something and just wants "teh modz". And for me that is the opposite of why I mod games - I mod because I want something changed in game(s) according to my tastes, not a whole slew of changes that are good according to someone else's taste. It's a very personal thing, not a "press button to make good" thing. Unless you're lazy AND unimaginative.

One would suspect you're trying to download mods for old Skyrim when you want to be downloading mods for Skyrim special edition; they are not the same.

Another person with zero mods published on the nexus and a whole 7 endorsements given in two years who's here telling people their time and effort is not worth anything and should never be worth anything because... they taught themselves how to do it with free online resources? Wow, that is the dumbest thing I've heard all week and I work in IT, I hear stupid things all day long.

It looks like a piece of aluminum glued to a piece of hard plastic. I'm just wondering why that would cost $70.

Please list the numerous times where DLC-sized mods were released and ignored. Make it easy, name five. No, make it really easy; name three. It happened numerous numerous times and I do miss a lot of things. You had nothing and are entitled to nothing; you have the potential to get something on a mostly even playing field - why complain? Even if you get nothing you are no worse off than before. Do you want a fair marketplace? If this is not it, what would be according to you?

I like to look at it in terms of absolute numbers versus percentages. The site has grown, modding has grown, so the absolute number of asshats has grown. However, the percentage of asshats is about the same as it ever was. There's just more of them around, and they're loud and annoying so they tend to stand out more. Ignore, block, or report as the case may warrant, but don't let them ruin your day; not worth it.

Set bUseWaterDisplacements=0 in your oblivion.ini file (in My Games\Oblivion) if you have an Nvidia card.

ah ha ha no. No, publishing a mod does not oblige anyone to help you with your broken game, with or without this system. Perhaps you should adjust your expectations and will then find mod authors are friendlier. You should maybe also reread the post, there is no voting, it's based on downloads. Nexus crew, awesome development, thank you.

With millions of users, any type of feedback is going to be "numerous" when you take "1000 people said they didn't like it" at face value and don't keep in mind "of the 5 million total users". Compared to the shitstorm of paid modding and some other shitstorms I've seen over the years this is a fairly minor tiff. As for feedback, most of what I see in this thread falls in one of four categories: "this does not suit my personal tastes", "I don't like change", "I'm too lazy to spend 2 minutes figuring out how the dropdown menus and filters work", or "my personal/obscure use case is the only important use case". Which is fine, venting frustration (within the bounds of civil conversation) is perfectly normal but almost none of it is actionable for the designers. Actionable feedback would be something like : - "using browser X on platform Y at resolution Z and normal zoom, action blah is broken because the results are blah and instead I expected blah" - "the placement of elements X and Y on page Z is not great because [reasons], perhaps it would be better to [alternate suggestion]". - "when using the search function in default mode with no filters within the correct game environment, if I look for [search term] I don't get the results I expected [screenshot with search query/filters/result]" You know, something that can be actually looked at, considered, and/or tested rather than just "I don't like it".

I'd say get one of the jukebox/music replacer mods and add some silent tracks so they will be mixed in. Or convert some of the existing tracks to wav or mp3 (plenty of converters around) and add a few minutes of silence at the start/end. Note that Skyrim has different music sets for exploration and regions and combat and whatnot.

given the level of effort I estimate this would take (some advanced SKSE hackery if not more), I would suggest you install one of the note-taking mods instead: https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/48375
