  1. In response to post #69292606. #69292866, #69309521 are all replies on the same post. I don't know about the others, but I haven't photoshopped my image(s), not because I wouldn't want to, but because I don't really know much about Photoshop. I made a custom pose for Rikke which I learned to do from a tutorial on LL. I didn't know anything about Blender or custom posing before reading that guide, so if I could do it, being completely clueless, I think anyone could, -if- they want to put in that effort. The only other thing outside the game that I did was stitching 3 images together in ICE to create the one you see above, which I learned from the "Panoramic Screenshot Technique" guide here on Nexus - which at the end of the day is just throwing the 3 images to the app and it does all the stitching and cropping for you. Although if I were more patient with camera positioning or changed my resolution I could achieve the same effect without this, it just felt more expedient to me to stitch them. Other than that, it's just Snapdragon ENB - with mostly default settings, even. All the programs I used are free, and I'm not exactly technically adept myself. I think what I did is theoretically well within reach of the average user and I would be more than happy to tell anyone how to do it if they were to ask, it's more a matter of whether they want to invest that kind of time in some silly screenshots, I find it fun, but most might not be interested in that kind of stuff.
  2. Ooh, my dodgy custom pose made it to the 15 favorites? I'm honored. ;) I think I spent like 30 minutes moving Rikke's hand in Blender to try and get it to look somewhat natural. At least Tullius was good enough to assume that pose on his own \o/ Some great scenes from everyone, including many of those not featured above - I count something like 90 participants so picking only 15 must have been challenging. Didn't expect the commentary but it's a great idea! Looking forward to whatever the next event will be about. Getting some direction like this certainly helps in terms of creativity.
  3. You cannot run both ECE and Racemenu at the same time, so you'll have to pick one. I prefer RM for the overlays, sculpt feature and just general compatibility with other stuff. If you're trying to make Asian looking characters though, then perhaps some of the morphs from ECE would be better. ECE also kind of has a sculpt tool like RM does, but RM's is just easier to use IMO, once you understand how to use it, at least. Here are some tutorials for RM Sculpt: At the end of the day though, the two mods share most of the same functionality, and you can make Western looking characters in ECE (see all the Bijin overhauls) or Asian looking ones in Racemenu. I'm used to RM so I have my bias, but they both work. About UNP and CBBE: These are body replacers! They have nothing to do with your head and do not change it in any way. I feel like the UUNP family has more Bodyslide conversions than CBBE so there's more compatibility with all sorts of outfits, also with Bodyslide you can get all sorts of shapes including some that resemble CBBE. That said, neither body does anything to your heads so you can use whichever you prefer. You need to look for a skin mod you like, eyes, makeup, stuff like that, in order to improve your head. Fair Skin Complexion or Unslaad are both great if you're looking for pale, younger looking characters. The one in your link is probably using Fair Skin Complexion. The Eyes of Beauty is all you need for eyes IMO, but there are other choices too. Your ENB matters a lot too. I still think Snapdragon ENB is the best for making characters look good, but I only take screenshots, if you're looking to play the actual game, then maybe something less resource intensive is better, like Caffeine ENB, or whatever you prefer. Also. If you're having trouble creating something from scratch (I know I do) then remember that RM has a tool that allows you to import the facial geometry of any other character, including most followers you can download here or elsewhere. So if you like a particular follower's face and you want to use them as a base for creating your own character, you can do that. Tutorial here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MGpnugyCOyk Keep in mind this only copies facial geometry, so stuff like brows, eyes, hair, if you want the exact same, you'll have to find yourself. Finally, remember that any character you see in these screenshots is carefully posed under ideal lighting and at FOV values and camera angles that you will never use in gameplay. They'll never look quite as good running around in the world in minute to minute gameplay stuff. This is true for every preset available out there, the author or other screenarchers will make them look amazing, but they probably spent 15~ minutes if not way more on the photoshoot.
  4. Use OneTweak - https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/40706 For a 2011 game, Bethesda seriously should've included borderless fullscreen.
  5. For what it's worth, you can get borderless fullscreen with OneTweak. It was a major quality of life improvement for me since I'd tab out a lot.
