I think I did a verify right before I started playing again, but it found one file and when I opened it it refound my video hardware (so maybe it was just detecting a changed default settings file???). Whatever it was it fixed it.

And by uninstall you mean delete all of Steam's game data, and redownload? I guess I could try backing it up, and then deleting/restoring the backup. But for right now I am just verifying the integrity of my files, will see if that has an effect.

Because you need to sheath two handed weapon to cast a spell, or in some cutscenes. I am not asking because it is annoying to recast over and over agian, I am asking because casting it in the middle of a battle is the the difference between useless and useful/dead before I fire the first arrow and got three off before the enemy even closed on me.

I think this solved itself over time.

I am finding that while bound weapons are very nice Skyrim does not really take into account weapons that cannot be sheathed. Have a cutscene that requires you to sheath a weapon right before combat, want to cast a spell while holding a double handed bound weapon. If you use bound weapons the game basically says FU, and if you are just barely able to cast the spell in the first place well then you really cannot afford to unsummon it. I think bound weapons need to remain summoned when they are sheathed, I think this is basically a necessity to use them. And I am hoping it is easy to code a mod for this. I am somewhat skilled at modding, if someone even just wants to point me in the right direction for this particular change, or tell me why it would be basically impossible to do, I would appreciate it.

Using the Ace combat mod, so bound bow is replaced with bound light bow. I have had no problems so far with normal bows, but the bound (light) bow is incredibly inaccurate The arrow trajectory is approximately right horizontally, but is like 3 feet too high vertically. In both first person and third person I have to generally aim at a persons feet. Also at the same time I seem to be getting a lot of strange sneak stuff happening, such that it shows that I have been seen and back and forth for no reason. I also have SkyUI installed, which I think is what causes you to see some active effects in the upper right corner. Like some blessings, Oak flesh, or some summoned creature. Bound bow shows, I think 6 items, with the top ones running out before the bottom ones. So that some end, and others are only like half done. When thes end nothing seems to change, but I imagine when the last one ends my bow disapears.

Whenever I close Skyrim, Steam becomes completely unresponsive and requires me to delete the process in the Task Manager. Windows 7, 64bit. It happened even from just closing that launcher I think. No other games cause Steam to act like this, and it does nto seem to fix itself over time. It started the very first times I opened Steam when I started a second playthrough after a long absence. I think I had subscribed to a few mods before opening it for this first time, but none of those first ones are active anyone I don't think. Possibly, that Enhanced Mighty Dragons mod has been installed and active the whole time. Anyone have any idea what might fix this?

Well at least in the combat magic classes it would combat, just rewards instead of looting dead corpses. And the strict guidelines that any teacher could realistically enforce could mean any combat scenario is realistic. And for the other disciplines they would not be practically any different then when you normally level the skill, just in a more controlled environment. And I do not think it would be bad to make it level skills far faster, up to some max level. Alchemy class would function a lot like you trying to level alchemy on your own, but with loads of items given to you and some teacher rambling off interesting hints and tips if you want to stand around and listen. And you would be told how to create some basic but very useful potions. So I think it could be a lot of fun. Great for you, I was surprised that more did not exist already. It is not online yet right? I could not find anything by that name at least.

I was thinking. Normally you wounder around and clear out dungeons of the undead for loot and fun. But you can join the assassins guild, or one of the two factions, for example, and you get unique quests and situations. Meanwhile, you join a school of magic as a student and are immediately sent to start clearing out dungeons of the undead, and the closest thing to classes are optional fetch quests for one of the 3 mages in the entire campus. What about an actual school experience? Why not sign up for classes, and spend most of your time practicing magic in a schoolroom style. Square off against some students or professors in a friendly duel of wards and destruction spells. Cast your summon into an area to fight against other student's summons. Choose what field you are interested in learning, then have classes you have to attend to graduate which are also a gret way to learn spells, about them; And if you like using them, and have the option to go directly to the exam phase, where it is not so structured. I think in general this quest arc could be a whole lot bigger, and more realistic; And be an alternative way learn more magic spessl and level up your magic skill levels. Also The college is just tiny and unimpressive.
