H1ms3lf Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 Hmm hmmm .... aren't you a newbie at this ? Well, had to look somewhere to get information \o/ Once you figure out enough in GECK to not get lost, and enough in Xedit to check plugin contents, only scripting is hard (and some other things incredibly tedious, like navmeshing or create/edit sound/lip files) OH! And don't forget to open 2 GECKs, it is helpful too when learning =] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mktavish Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 2 gecks ? I would imagine your machine is pretty awesome then. Call me crazy ... but me myself won't open the game & geck same time , nor Xedit. 2 gecks at once though ... just for learning purposes ? Otherwise I can't think of why you would want to.

H1ms3lf Posted May 23, 2017 Share Posted May 23, 2017 2 gecks ? I would imagine your machine is pretty awesome then. Not really, so long you don't load interiors, the geck runs pretty smooth. Messing with graphics often causes it to crash, so avoid opening 2 GECKs in these cases, even if it is just simple stuff like editing an NPCs face, gotta save often when messing with graphics =] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uhmattbravo Posted May 24, 2017 Share Posted May 24, 2017 2 gecks ?  I would imagine your machine is pretty awesome then. Call me crazy ... but me myself won't open the game & geck same time , nor Xedit. 2 gecks at once though ... just for learning purposes ? Otherwise I can't think of why you would want to.I open Xedit all the time when I'm working in geck. It's how I steal bits of scripting from other stuff I've made. Forgot to close geck one time to test the mod I had open in it once too. I didn't even know I could do that one till I did it.
