DoctorKaizeld Posted August 1, 2016 Share Posted August 1, 2016 seriously there are a lot of people on this site constantly helping others fix their games and a thousand guides on the web that all do the same thing with various results and levels of success. something we don't have though is a guide of our own to work with. why is that? we got a lot of talented people up in here and many won't be sticking around forever. also i myself went a while without helping people fix mods and found myself in a rusty state when trying to help out again. so i am asking my fellow Nexus dwellers to help me through together a guide. just a basic one nothing fancy. the idea is to simply cover the stuff that people constantly have issues with and common ways to alleviate issues such as "re-validate games cache" and the steps to do it. also with this being our guide we can discuss things to add and constantly update it as needed with better or different solutions for issues. any of you guys willing to help me with this or should i just go back to my lurking?

twiztedmongoloid Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 i think its a great idea. the posts everyday of " HELP!!! i installed 50 mods and now my game doesnt work" are super annoying. Reddit has a great link that already addresses this. https://www.reddit.com/r/skyrimmods/wiki/troubleshooting_guide Problem is even when you give people all of the information. Majority of the time they dont bother reading it anyway. They want a quick miracle solution. Give them the info and they still come back saying it "didnt work" when the link covers every possible issue they could have. Because of this i have given up on responding to posts like that. I will only help someone who seems like they have done their homework but it just truly stuck on something. I wont help the lazy user who didnt read or research. Installed 100 esps and now CTDs at start or CTDs every few mins and wants a quick fix. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoctorKaizeld Posted August 2, 2016 Author Share Posted August 2, 2016 Well my goal is to creat it more for people like us. So that we have somewhere to look and disscuss issues and pass on our knowledge. This way instead of one person knowing the fix we can have two or three Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twiztedmongoloid Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 I think quite a few people in here have a ton of knowledge. Most just get tired of the same basic questions and dont wanna take the time to respond to someone with 1 or 2 posts who likely wont be back anyway. There are a number of really really smart people and excellent resources for learning how to properly and successfully mod this game that the dumb basic questions are just inexcusable. I replied to someone about installed SKSE....showed them a video describing installation for BOTH mod managers in detail......they still claim they didnt understand lol. how does the old saying go..."you can lead a horse to water but..........
