Annoying Abbreviations

[Schnellinger]

Hi.

 

I recently decided to go to the modifications world of Skyrim.

 

But I just noticed people here talk in some sort of jargon that I just don't understand and I have to open a new tab with google every 30 seconds.

 

So, my question is: Can anyone explain what these letters mean?

UNPB, BBP, SKSE... and so on.

 

If anyone knows them all, can you post them here? so I can copy and paste them in a new Sticky Note. Something like:

 

SKSE = Super Kool Snake Exploder

BBP = Big Bang Puff

 

and so on.

 

 

 

I'm getting REAL tired of this abbreviation generation. Or maybe I'm just getting old. Who knows...

SKSE = Skyrim Script Extender

UNPB = UNPretend Blessed (https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/37900/)

BBP = Breast & Butt Physics (https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/54044/)

 

 

Here's a topic that may help: https://forums.nexusmods.com/index.php?/topic/695631-skyrim-modding-lingo/

You're not alone, the overuse of acronyms irks me no end. It's those new to modding I feel sorry for, I've seen their questions answered with a paragraph full of acronyms, a paragraph that would require a modern day Bletchley Park to decipher.

Good :dance: . Keep it coming.

 

Another question: How 'big' is the folder of the Creation Kit?

 

I downloaded the launcher from Bethesda website but my internet comes from a data card and I don't want to sqeeze it that hard. I'm planning to download that tool to create 'vanilla' companion mods; those will not need absolutely nothing else, "Standalone", if you like.

Here you go. Common acronyms page on the Nexus wiki.

But at the same time if you're going into modding one should learn the most basic/popular acronyms.
