Also, those bs mods you're suggesting won't get past the "email deleted" part.
You, and a great many of the proponents keep asserting this, yet we have zero evidence to the contrary. All you have is 'faith' in Bethesda not doing this. When there has been a long history of similar statements from similar programs getting reneged upon because of money. While I agree that many of those claiming that this will 'kill free mods' and the like are absurd, I find your 'faith' vs evidence similarly absurd. Stop trying to defend this based on what you *want* to happen, and instead look at what *has* happened and use that as a guide. Please.

But you are stepping down from a mod position right? Otherwise it comes off as a conflict of interest. One that I at least am not comfortable with.
-
From your load order, I have a funny feeling that you used LOOT to create that mess.
BOSS is ludicrously out of date. It doesn't place any of the newer patches where it should.

The original creator pulled it because they didn't have the time to maintain the file. It was also not perfect as with some mod setups there are issues, notably when using her with certain multifollower mods. There are threads on other sites detailing and sharing some of these issues.

To me hearthfire is basically "lets play mums and dads". I didn't want to play it when I was 9 and I don't want to play it now, so if I didn't get GOTY in a summer sale there's no way i'd pay for it now. I know others have no intention of buying the other DLC. Furthermore I definitely wouldn't be just handing over my money to bethesda so I could use a mod which fixes things that are broken in the game, which they themselves show no intention of fixing.
I see a number of people saying "The DLC is cheap enough to get..." umm. No it's not. Currently DB and DG are $25 each on steam. That's not "cheap", if you don't have any DLC and you wanted them, it's literally cheaper to buy GOTY edition. Realistically people aren't going to spend $50 for the patch, so they'll be stuck.
So this is how I see it:
Worst cases for each of the groups:
For those that have the DLC: you need to manage a few more patches.
For those that don't: You need to either spend $50 to buy the game again or go without the updates.
Personally I don't think that's fair.
Thats the wrong way to look at Hearthfire imo. Look at it more as a ton more assets than can (often are) added to mods to increase how well those mods are. Not to mention the benefits to various crafting/economy overhauls. I got married once and adopted kids just to see how it was handled and have skipped it ever since. I still like the byoh stuff (to a small extent) and value the dlc entirely for what other modders have done with it, notably Kryptopyr.
As for cheap, there is a reason why the numerous sales have been pointed out. You do know that you can get Steam codes from other sites than just Steam? And yes, I bought all of my dlc on their own, even shelling out the money for Hearthfire on purpose. :P

I vote yes. Inter dlc fixes are a good thing.

Me three. Says the token is expired and when I re-enter my information it states "Unexpected response cannot reach the Nexus login server".
-
It has been showing "Not logged in" since I upgraded to 48.2 but I was having no issues with downloading/updating mods at all until 7pm pst. About 20 minutes ago its like the servers just stopped working in relation to NMM.

A retexture is the only way. To be more specific you need to change the normal maps.
Well the majority of the NPC's don't have this problem, so there must be something special about the texture that Moira Brown, Lacy, etc. are using. How do I find out which textures they're using? I really don't have the first clue how facegen information is stored and I know they use a variety of .nif files for eyes, face, etc.
The interaction between the normal map and face gen data has to be the cause of the issue. For the most part NV Redesigned and its fo3 counter part "fix" it, though not completely, and that changes up facegen and texture to do it. In general though I don't think its something you can completely eliminate, at least not without more work than its worth.

Hmm... Looks like it actually is pretty easy. I'm a complete FNG when it comes to modding, thought it was more complex than that. Now to see if my laptop shits the bed trying to run Nifskope >.>
If it can run NV then it can use Nifskope. Not to say that creating "new" stuff isn't difficult, it is. But doing mashups for the most part are pretty easy, especially once you figure out Nifskope/Edit programs. They give you the tools to do the minor stuff to make things work that most people really need. Diving into a real mesh program like Blender, or the Geck/CK is rather different.

I haven't seen one, but why would you need a mod for this? Its pretty easy to just not keep those on your person. Between companions and mods like the van house you shouldn't need to carry a whole lot on your person anyway. Personally I never carry more then 2-3 anyway. Long/med/short range.
-
What are you not looking for when it comes to PN? You can disable/not use most of it pretty easily.

There wouldn't happen to be a male version of the scouter floating around, would there? Could've sworn I saw it a while ago, but now I'm not so sure.
To fit it to males shouldn't take more than just a readjustment to match it up with the male head I would think and then some geck work maybe? Pretty quick/easy work in Nifskope. I recommend this quick tutorial: http://tesalliance.org/forums/index.php?/tutorials/article/98-static-mashups-in-nifskope/

@livnthedream, Looks like the Mantis Zero Scouter from Mantis Zero Suit Samus and More - Type 3 for NV by Primantis.
Most excellent, thanks! Now for the retexturing <>

Anyone know the name of the glasses shown in this pic?
If you can't link to them directly at least toss me a name to go googling for.

Agreed on every point.

He also has some info on how to install Enb. They are not like a normal mod.

I agree with the blocking of people. That kind of harsh punishment is does help keep the trouble down. What I do not like are the hidden comments. There are more than a couple of authors that go ballistic on users who report issues with their mods, even minor things like itm/udr and tweaked/broken navmeshes claiming that they are not really problems. I can see these sorts of comments being hidden when people should know about them. This is especially true of those who mod for popularity rather than for enjoyment.

Hey Dark0ne, maybe a system similar to https://subbable.com/ would help move some of those off the fence who do not see value in it, or even see the people who do not pitch in now because they feel a month here and a month there just does not make much difference.
-
Even without the scripting I would love this. If even just the nifs/textures were released Its easy enough to put in game with some basic stuff on it.
-
You need to use some googlefu. There are a few around. For the most part they are too low quality to port, and look like incredibly out of place to build. Even taking the base ones and "upgrading" them to realistic make them look goofy.
