What program(s) do people use to make new armor?

[craggy turret]

Some blender, some 3ds max, a little substance painter or quixel mixer. Photoshop, Gimp, or something similar. Nifskope, outfit studio...I'm sure I'm missing some. There's a whole process.

[fervent flame]

Why is the greybeards mad at me for killing paarthurnax when I never did because I have this mod called tweaks I will not kill paarthurnax?

🧛‍♂️ Immersive Dialogue Expansion: Volkihar 🧛‍♀️

It adds new story to Volkihar characters, quest commentaries, and a hold court function where you can finally act like a mighty vampire lord.

Does anyone know any good werewolf mods on Xbox series x/s

Please help because I'm trying to redo my mod order for the werewolf

[carmine hull]

Growl is the one I personally like the most

[fervent flame]

Already in my mod order

[carmine hull]

Then outside of stiff that changes the model you're pretty much good to go.

[fervent flame]

Is there a mod that allows the companions recognize the dragonborn is a werewolf

[terse shard]

That sounds like something that would require SKSE. Not possible on Xbox.

[pulsar wing]

Mods don't need SKSE to detect if the player is a werewolf.

[terse shard]

Ok

Is there one?

[pulsar wing]

No idea. I haven't really had a reason to find out.

[topaz ginkgo]

Hii!

I’m putting together a lightweight standalone Xbox mod,is there someone to help me with implementation

[thorny sky]

[shadow dove]

hey, anyone with a ton of experience with skyrim mods (including nsfw) could help me? im despeate to fix my game 🥺

[frosty fjord]

Any good Save Cleaner tool mods you highly recommend I use to clean my corrupted saves? I'm at latest AE version on Steam. Just want to clean my saves with a save cleaner tool to hopefully fix scripts and CTD bugs. Please ping me if you have an answer in case I forget.

[pine crown]

That would be considered unwise at best to use a save cleaner of any sort. CTDs and scripts cannot be fixed this way anyway, and you're actually more likely to end up with a corrupted save than you are a fixed one. The information in the save files has never been properly decoded so any such utilities messing with it are unsafe.

[feral pivot]

Hey gang 👋 usually xbox player here. I was wondering if anyone knew if immersive armors are on steam creations?

[echo pivot]

Any1 able to help me with getting mods, I tried to get it to work but I’ve been in the”creating quick account” for almost an hour now and idk what I was meant to do from this

[carmine hull]

I don't think it's been on creations except once, if you're on PC the Nexus is where you'll want to get your nonpaid mods from tbh

[feral pivot]

I'm playing via steam deck so it's a bit tricky but I intend on figuring it out!

Thanks for your response!

[carmine hull]

Oh I know the trials of steam deck modding

[queen aurora]

Is Dynamic Animation Replacer considered outdated? I had it unknowingly in my load order and it caused crashes left and right. After I disabled and uninstalled it, my game ran much, much smoother.
Bad practice to disable a mod mid-game, I know, but I haven't had any other crash since.

[normal pasture]

Hi, I'm new to modding skyrim se. Can somebody give me a hint on how to add custom attribute to all npcs and a player (I know that you can't edit hardcoded info or add new, ex. health attribute). I've seen somewhere that you can use invisible quests to store dynamic variables or properties inside. But how?

[normal pasture]

Yeah, use Open Animation Replacer instead.

[normal pasture]

Phew, problem solved. To add dynamic values to actors you can use PapyrusUtil.
This SKSE plugin (SKSE required) gives you better and safer control over values. Module called "StorageUtil" inside of the plugin itself contains functions needed to work with dynamic data. There are several pros about the plugin:

• Data is saved inside the save file.
• You can store any type of data (int, float, string, form).
• You don't need to change anything inside Skyrim itself to apply values to actors.
• It's easy to manipulate data throughout the game.
  [CANNOT COMPILE PAPYRUSUTIL SCRIPT] To compile any scripts written using PapyrusUtil functions you need to copy all of the ".psc" files from the PapyrusUtil to "Data\Source\Scripts". To access those ".psc" files you can either use the "Open in Explorer" option through the mod manager or navigate plugin (PapyrusUtil) folder manually. You need to do that for Creation Kit to actually see them and use their functions.
  [REQUIREMENTS] All requirements are listed on the nexusmods page under "Requirements" tab.
  Notes: This is the knowledge I want to share to somebody who struggle with the same problems. I hope this can be helpful.

[dusty agate]

Any good armors to pair with the ethereal crown im currently doing a mage build

[pulsar wing]

Quite a few, I think. Depends on what you're going for in terms of style, though; unless you're only focusing on stats. If you don't have one already you might want to get a mod to enable wearing circlets underneath hoods to expand your options in that regard.

Although that does change the game's balance slightly as you'd be able to wear 5 pieces of clothing/armor instead of the usual 4.

[dusty agate]

what would you suggest?

[pulsar wing]

Well, up to you; I don't know your aesthetic preferences. When I last played a mage I'd usually either wear either the gray "apprentice" college robes with custom enchantments or say the archmage robes. If you don't mind the look of Miraak's robes those are also pretty good as they have the rare effect of spell absorption which stacks with other sources of spell absorption, increasing the chance to negate incoming spells.

[dusty agate]

it dosent need to be robes it could be armor i just want anything that would look well the the etheral crown

[pulsar wing]

Aye. Just saying.

[dusty agate]

can always enchant the armor for my mage build

[pulsar wing]

I'm just partial to the look of robes is all.

[dusty agate]

👍

[pulsar wing]

In the end you can't really go wrong with whatever you pick. Skyrim's end-game you're usually stomping anything it throws at you.

[dusty agate]

but like would you suggest any mods or armor....

[long crow]

Since it was just announced that Blades is shutting down, can we maybe get the rest of the armors and maybe even the weapons that were featured in Blades added to Skyrim SE Creations?

[queen aurora]

Are there any other pocket dimension homes similar to Extended Rest and Dynamic Campsite?

[static spoke]

Got this guy out today on nexus.
I will release it on Bethnet next weekend:

[copper raft]

Anyone know a mod that does trees good inside whiterun that works with capital whiterun expansion?

[fading marten]

So I'm trying to find something in the Creation Kit, and I'm completely new to this.
Specifically, I'm trying to find the inventory that opens when you ask Alvor for supplies, in MQ102A (Season Unending, escaping with Hadvar).
I think I've found the dialogue in the Player Dialogue tab for the quest ID, but that's about as far as I've gotten.
Am I even looking in the right place for this?

My main goal is to add a specific item to said inventory.

[pulsar wing]

Check and make sure you have extracted the papyrus script source files so that the CK is able to load them. Your window shows this:

which is different from what I see when I load the same quest in mine:

Basically you are looking in the right place, but missing information due to the script source files still being in the archive that ships with the rest of the CK's files. At least, I assume that's the reason it's not showing up in yours.

[fading marten]

That's really strange. I didn't know about the Papyrus script deal.
All I did was download the SSE CK from Steam, and launch it.
It came with a .zip that it asked to extract, which I allowed it to do.

[pulsar wing]

Ah, I see. Yeah, there are some prepatory bits that need to be done post-install.

If the source files are already extracted then the path may not be set up right in the directory and/or ini file. One of the things I had to do was reverse the "Data\Source\Scripts" file structure back to the "Data\Scripts\Source" that it was originally in SLE that for some reason was changed during the program's switch to SSE.

After reversing the folders in the actual filesystem I then had to add/edit this bit in CreationKitCustom.ini:

sScriptSourceFolder = ".\Data\Scripts\Source"

[honest python]

What does he normally give you? Just ingots?

[fading marten]

No, it's a set of fixed items, similar to what Gerdur gives you when asking the same thing (if escaped with Ralof).
Belted Tunic, some food/drinks, a little bit of gold, etc.

[fading marten]

Would you happen to have a recommended source for learning these post-install instructions?
I've done some light digging and there seem to be a lot of guides. I'm not sure where to look in this mountain of information.

[pulsar wing]

Not offhand; this is something I already set up years ago so I'm foggy on the details. There is probably a guide or three on youtube that may be sufficient. Possibly something in forum(s) as well.

[fading marten]

Ah. I appreciate it, either way.

[pulsar wing]

Regarding this, the relevant code is in the screenshot from mine I posted. It's opening the "gift" menu so that's what you'll likely be wanting to target for getting your item to appear in it.

[honest python]

I was jsut wondering myself if that pulls from the vendor chest or actor inventory.

[quiet juniper]

Can someone explain to me why my game keeps crashing
This is my crashlog

[pine crown]

I'd suggest using https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/59818 instead and then submit it to either https://phostwood.github.io/crash-analyzer/skyrim.html or https://www.skyrimcrashdecoder.com/ to see what they have to say about it.

[quiet juniper]

thx

[fading marten]

It's me again, Margaret...
I know it's been a few days, but I've figured out how to compile Papyrus scripts, and I now have access to them!
I've also found and installed all of the major post-installation fixes for the CK itself.
However, I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing in regards to said scripts. I've dug up and down the CK and I can't figure out how and where to access the GiftMenu inventory for Alvor during MQ102A, in order to add the item(s) I have in mind.
Would you have any input on where to look for this? Is it something I have to access outside of the CK?

[fading marten]

For example, I've managed to stumble this far...

I just can't seem to find the information, code, or whatever it is that contains the set of items he grants to you through the GiftMenu, when asking for supplies.

I've also scanned through his Actor information, and I can't seem to find anything in there, either.
He doesn't carry this stuff on himself/in his own actual inventory, I know that much at least. He only carries a house key and LootCitizenPocketsCommon.

[fading marten]

I know the start of the script says GetOwningQuest().SetStage(47), and I thought that would be a clue.
So I checked Stage 47 for the MQ102A quest itself, but all it has is this.

Looking at the Advanced tab of the above Papyrus Fragment, it says Script Name: QF_MQ102_0002BF9C
So I checked the Scripts tab in the top right of that window, and double-clicked the Script with that name.
I see a Properties window appears, but I can't seem to interact with it.
And when I right-click and Edit Source, I see the entire script itself.
I'm seeing a lot of Fragment_* parts, including the ones pointed out in the dialogue scripts of my first screenshot, but nothing about the list of items offered in this gift menu.

There is also an MQ102QuestScript next to the QF_MQ102_0002BF9C, but it has significantly less in it, none of which seems to be what I'm looking for either.

Which makes me wonder... Is this stuff supposed to be in a LeveledItem list? I'm not seeing any references to one, I don't think. So I don't know which one it could even be.

[hasty jungle]

https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/175676 best mod ive seen in months

[fading marten]

So I'm experiencing a strange thing with Survival Mode in my modlist.
Whenever I walk into the cells BloatedMansGrottoExterior01 (-10, -9) or BloatedMansGrottoExterior02 (-10, -10), I get a message in the top left saying You do not feel hunger, exhaustion, or cold here.
And whenever I leave these cells, I get prompts saying I am Fed, Rested, and Comfortable.
Would anyone have an idea as to why this would be happening? Or where to check in xEdit or the CK? I've dug through both with my limited knowledge, and I can't seem to find anything.

I have this clip of it in action, if that helps.

[carmine hull]

My guess is due to the quest related to bloated mabs grotto and that triggers just always there

[median sedge]

I have never tried survival, any recommendations of good mods that are better than the survival mode from AE?

[fading marten]

I would recommend to use the vanilla survival mode with mods that improve upon it, instead of replacing it with another survival mode entirely.
Here is the list of what I personally use with vanilla survival:

• Survival Mode Improved - SKSE
• Survival Mode Improved - SKSE - USSEP Patch and SMI SKSE - Skyrim Misc Bugfix Compilation Patch
• SkyUI FIX for Survival Mode Integration
• Survival Mode Improved Magical Heat
• Yet Another Hunger Point Restoration Rebalance For Skyrim's Survival Mode (Redux) - YAHPRRFSSM(R)
• Survival Control Panel
• Survival Control Panel - Settings Loader
• Heat Sources Skypatched

[median sedge]

Thx thats quite an exhaustive list

[fading marten]

For Skyrim modlists, honestly, that's almost nothing.

[median sedge]

Survival in fallout 4 changed the game completely for me, i cant play without it anymore

https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/137276?tab=description Having trouble with getting the Eskyrim's Forward Dodge Animation for TK Dodge - for Pandora and AMR mod to work (Pc 1.6.1170) I see the mod in the Shift + O menu, have the ability to lock onto enemies and can perform dodges so I assume I correclty installed at least part of the required files. The mod defaults to roll dodges rather than step dodges, I thought this could have been the problem at first so I went into the ini file to allow step dodges but when you are locked onto an enemy you step dodge in every direction other than forward where you are still defaulted to a forward roll dodge rather than a step or the intended run past animation that the mod provides so I could'nt see if that was the issue or not. Is the anyone who has gotten the mod to work that can help me out? apologies if this isnt the correct place to ask for help I also tried to leave a post on the mod page itself but i am not sure if I will get a response there so I wanted to try here.

Looking for some must have mods for more encounters or something close to daily challenges/repeatable quests

[deep inlet]

is anyone else unable to actually make a new bethesda account? i click Sign Up and... nothing happens. tried on mobile too, same issue

[tired turtle]

Does the page throw an error, or does clicking it do actually nothing? Try clearing your browser cache?

[deep inlet]

the latter, nothing happens at all. tried clearing cache, tried on mobile, tried other broswers, same situation.
i vaguely remember having this issue a few months ago too, and i don't think i ever found a way to fix it

[tired turtle]

Strange. Let me see what I can figure out for you.

[deep inlet]

thank you

[tired turtle]

Do you have a vpn? If so try turning it off and then accessing the page.

[deep inlet]

i do not

[tired turtle]

Hm, follow up question are you in the US or another country?

[deep inlet]

uk

[tired turtle]

Okay. I'll reach out to a few more people and see if I can find anything.

[deep inlet]

thank you

[queen aurora]

Is there any mod that adds Vasco to Skyrim?

[tired turtle]

We are thinking it may be a firewall/port issue, but I think your best bet is to submit a ticket. Since you are having issues with the sign in, you can submit an account recovery ticket (you don't have to sign in for those) and just explain the issue, the ticket will be directed to the right queue. You can fill that out here: https://help.bethesda.net/#en/home/product/711/cat/16/question/30/loginquestion/860/actrec/yes/plat/3/email/noremember/sqa/maybe

[deep inlet]

signing in is fine, it's only happening when trying to make a new account. so i don't need to recover anything because i can't make the account currently

i use alt-accounts for porting certain authors mods to Xbox (keeps my main upload log clean), just trying to make a new one for that lol

[tired turtle]

I see. That is weird. In either case, submit a ticket just explaining the issue, basically the first agent will read it, put it in probably the tech support queue, and then the team will be able to discuss it and figure out the issue with the information you are able to give them.

[deep inlet]

i'll try that, thank you

[tired turtle]

If you want, once you do, go ahead and provide that ticket number. I'll post to the team so they can have reference once they investigate.

[deep inlet]

that would be wonderful, do i provide it on here or privately?

[tired turtle]

Either way! The only people who can look up those numbers are staff 🙂

[deep inlet]

ah sweet, the ticket number is 260414-001768

just got a mod idea

city/town specific music playlists, it wont be a VC cos i wanna have novigrad music in solitude and rohan music in whiterun but imma put it on nexus prolly

[gentle monolith]

hey guys, hope your day is going well, ive recently reinstalled skyrim and decided to mod it, but, for the life of me i cannot get wet and cold to work, any ideas? i have already adjusted my load order for it several times, every other mod i have installed works, so i dont think its an overall LO issue. and even dirt and blood works, so im at a loss.

edit i am on xbox

[gentle monolith]

side note, does anyone know any xbox alternative to visible fav gear, that ideally compatible with elden beast

[deep inlet]

how can i verify integrity for the AE upgrade specifically? just realised over half my CC is missing but Skyrim itself is turning up no errors when i verify it's files

nvm it was a borked install on game-start, forgot how CC is installed fixed now

Follower Dialogue Expansion: Lisette is available on Nexus!

This mod makes Lisette, the wholesome bard of Solitude, a fully-fledged follower with 243 lines.

As a follower, she provides you a powerful Bardic Inspiration buff that increases your overall combat prowess.
However, she is also very weak as a fighter, so you must protect her as you would a support character in an MMO.

Will you let the enthusiastic bard write your saga?

Follower Dialogue Expansion: Ralof

This mod makes Ralof a fully-fledged follower with extensive reaction to the main quest, Civil War, and various locations.
The Dragonborn's best bro from Helgen, with his own struggles and hopes - finally arrives in the game.

With 551 lines, Ralof is the biggest debut in the Follower Dialogue Expansion series yet.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ScHph2jJqEw

[carmine hull]

I would love one for Hadvar too, I never go with ralof these days

[terse shard]

Siding with Ralof seems like the only rational choice minutes after the imperials were about to kill you. First time I played I was like, what?? With Hadvar?? Uhhh, this must be a trick or something. Fool me once and all that….

[carmine hull]

Hadvar specifically actually seems to kinda care, ralof you're kinda just with until the tower after that hadvar at least tries to protect you up to the keep, you're separated from ralof almost immediately

Plus, I almost certainly ain't siding with the stormcloaks much in the grand scheme

[terse shard]

But at that point in the game do you really know anything about the stormcloaks? Only thing you know is the imperials were about to cut your head off. For little—if any—cause.

[carmine hull]

You know they're wanted by the empire, though personally I'd hadvar because he not only does his best to keep you safe he gets a kid to relative safety. I haven't done the intro properly in forever to remember specifics, the captains to blame for being put to the sword though. Also depends on if you're playing it as some random guy who knows nothing about the world or if you're playing as someone that actually has at least basic knowledge of current events before the cart.

[silver talon]

Does anyone have tips on: how I can make multiple owned horses return to stables? And without them returning to their original locations when switching?

Hello im not sure if this is the right group to ask for help but can anyone give me any tips how to log in on ps5 creations for mods I did everything even factory reset mu ps5 nothing works any tips please

[queen aurora]

I know it's bad practice to uninstall mods mid-playthrough, but can I uninstall Interesting Roads, Extended Encounters, and Hold Riders?
I've pinpointed them as the three most likely culprits to my carriage travel crashes as they add things to Skyrim's worldspace that for some reason, makes my game crash when I fast travel via any other means other than the vanilla fast travel. That is, through the carriages.
I made a new character without those mods and the crashes were gone, but I'm loathe to abandon my old character.

[terse shard]

You can always try. Just keep a current save with them in it to go back to. Any that include scripts are likely to cause problems once removed though. Really only mesh/texture is safe to remove.

[vagrant girder]

Has anyone been getting this constantly I'm on playstation 5

[verbal siren]

Same

And loads like forever cant fix no matter what I tried even contacted my WiFi providers to remove all restrictions and no luck

[terse shard]

Not uncommon. Bethesda servers have problems regularly. Usually doesn’t hast too long though.

[hushed creek]

is there a mod that makes the game autosave more frequently? im not tryna quicksave after everything

[sour flicker]

You should check your NAT type in connection settings, the higher the type (1-3) the more “restricted” your network is. Type 2 and 3 usually gives trouble connecting to beth net. You could also try sharing wifi via your phone

[vagrant girder]

This has been every single day I keep getting that I'm getting to the point I don't want to play my own Skyrim because I can't access the mods I want to use on my own playstation it's taking out the fun and being in the UK I can't even have Bethesda text me which I'm told is faster response

[verbal siren]

@sour flicker I tried everything even contacted my WiFi provider to ask if there are any restrictions on my WiFi my Nat type is 2

[sour flicker]

Do you have internet access to
other stuff? If your connection is stable and fine i can only suggest resetting network settings and keep trying to log in. Servers are unstable sometimes. Also do you have a heavy load order? Images attached to the mods seem to increase loading time as well

[verbal siren]

@sour flicker my Internet is totally fine the load order is all creations and few mods not too much I had 120 before I have 44 now and it won't load I even deleted all them an kept creations and it did not work 🙃

[sour flicker]

Damn, yeah only thing left then is to just keep trying, maybe it’ll let you in sooner or later

[terse shard]

If it’s that frequent it could be a problems with your ISP. Or if not I’m would submit a ticket to Bethesda

[vagrant girder]

I did that and what's isp? I've never had the issue before last month it's just all of a sudden started to play up and no clue why and Bethesda aren't doing anything to fix their issues at all

[terse shard]

Internet service provider

And yea it’s frustrating. Their servers are not adequate. But if it’s happening every day then it could be a specific problem with your account. There are troubleshooting steps on their web site as well.

[languid agate]

Hey guys just getting into skyrim modding. Downloaded the mod organizer and all other programs needed for the process. My only problem is there's so many mods to choose from on nexus and I'm aware that's not even half of all of them available (other mod sites/dedicated sites for massive mods). So would anyone be able to suggest where I even begin? Little overwhelming even just finding a place to start for my modded playthrough.

[storm notch]

Thanks for the heads up

[charred silo]

I'm using Race Menu Any Time on ps4 but it's not working, I drop it and it just drops a named soul gem fragment

[high briar]

Is the Daedric Conqueror mod worth it?

[hybrid escarp]

Any recommended perk overhaul mods?

[carmine hull]

Ordinator is my usual go to

[hybrid escarp]

Tell me more about it?

[carmine hull]

Overhauls every perk tree, I'm terrible at remembering specifics but every weapon type has perks related to it, crafting gets ways to even further upgrade your gear

[terse shard]

All of them. Just not at once.

Unless there is a patch of course

[queen aurora]

Will my game crash if I download an armor mod that requires FSMP, if I don't have it?

[sharp lake]

Do have multi utility mod

U can access race menu through that

[charred silo]

No, I'll try it next time I get on

[sharp lake]

Its a console command mod for ps definitely worth having in your LO

[hybrid escarp]

Anyone know of a good way to figure out which mod is causing those issue

[terse shard]

Anything that modifies that outfit

[hybrid escarp]

@terse shard Its Sentinel... I forgot to download the resource pack like a idiot

I distributed a bunch of missing textures to nos when I populated with bodyslide and obody

Follower Dialogue Expansion: Cosnach 0.1

An expansion on your best drinking buddy from Markarth! There ain't no shipment in Markarth but there sure are mead kegs to empty and Forsworn to slay.
Comes with 120 lines, new stories and environmental awareness.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F_NmkKUUu-U

[hybrid escarp]

Any suggestions for good followers mods

[carmine hull]

Inigo, Lucien, remiel and xelzaz come to mind

[hybrid escarp]

I have Remiel and I adore her

[carmine hull]

Xelzaz and redcap have interactions with her, and each other only 3 I've seen to have like full party interactions with each other.

If you've ever watched Skyrim tales, Jesper has a mod

[hybrid escarp]

Never seen or heard of skyrim tales

Up until last week or 2 I hadn't touched skyrim since the year it released originally ally

[vague relic]

I definitely recommend Xelzaz, Remiel, and Redcap. Lucien and Inigo also make a great pair.

[carmine hull]

Highly recommend it, it's a fun little comedy series, an honest to god machinima in 2026

[hybrid escarp]

I will definitely itely have to look k to those suggested mods. Is there one to let you have multiple followers or have followers "make themselves at home in your house"?

[crude oracle]

There's a bunch of follower framework mods. I use NFF (Nether's Follower Framework) but there's many other's and probably better/cleaner. I used to use others but that was so long ago, I don't remember their names.

I think there's like UFO, AFT, EFF? (might have them wrong as I don't even know/remember what they stand for. Also I used one or two of them in Oldrim)

"Simple Follower Framework" SFE

"Multiple Follower Framework" MFE

[carmine hull]

The ones I listed don't count toward follower slots.

[crude oracle]

Okay apparently AFT, UFO and EFF should be avoided. According to ChatGPT...

[hybrid escarp]

So you can jist have them recruited and following you normally?

[crude oracle]

That's cool

[carmine hull]

Pretty much yeah

[hybrid escarp]

Interesting

[carmine hull]

And chatgpt should be avoided as a consultant for mods. But yeah those mods tend to break custom companions.

[crude oracle]

I know that, I use it just to find mods, I read the mod pages myself and decide for myself, not the AI's input, but I also remember those mods from like years ago which is why I'd trust that they'd be kinda broken now XD

I spent many years modding before using any form of AI. it's just a sniffer for mods for me if anything XD

[thorny sky]

Follower Dialogue Expansion: Olfina Gray-Mane 3.0

3.0 adds 90 lines to Olfina, including the possibility to recruit Olfina despite joining the Empire, asking Olfina her opinions on Whiterun's people, compliments and flirtations, and banters with Lucia and Sofie.

As of 3.0 there are 668 lines in total.

https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/179180

I uploaded this thing... I hope people find it useful... I'll say here even though I've said on the page itself, I used ChatGPT.

[scarlet leaf]

Does anyone know any Skyrim or oblivion mods that commission 3d and 2 artists?
I also live fallout games and making armor sets and stuff for them too

[lost kestrel]

Is there any mods similar to Tundra Defense? I found out about Tundra Defense a decade late as a youtuber made a video on it. I ignored it for so long because I just assumed it was an arcade-y wave/horde thing.

I wasn't aware it was a mini build your own town mod. While I had fun with it, Tundra Defense does feel like something made a decade ago (not saying that as an insult) and I'm wondering if there are any successors or similar mods that do the same sort of thing but expanded?

[neon valley]

Need some good suggestions for overhaul mods for pc that add trees too cities whiterun to bleak

[sudden hinge]

In Creation Kit for Skyrim SE... How exactly does Extensions > Import Topics/Dialogue work?
can i really just import all my dialogue from a text file?

[sudden hinge]

Did you mean place anywhere or is a fixed location ok?

[lost kestrel]

Place anywhere, but I suppose I'll check out anything.

[terse shard]

https://skyrimtinyhouses.com/

https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/2242

[lost kestrel]

Thank you!

[sudden hinge]

exactly what i was thinking

How is Blackthorn btw?
I never actually tried it

[terse shard]

Amazing in every way except one. The manor can get bogged down once you fill it with loot/displays and get super crashy. At least on Xbox series s that true and prob PC depending on your set up I guess. Only affects the manor.

[sudden hinge]

check this one too:

[median sedge]

Help, i installed ezpg and it had this alternative to death. I uninstalled everything related to it but every character i create is flagged as essential and i cant remove it with console commands

Anyone has found any similar issue? Im using MO2

[median sedge]

Nevermind i found the culprit, a mod called katria, unrelated to ezpg

[weary ibex]

Been working on an armor mod recently. Any thoughts?

[sudden hinge]

Nice.. looks like a light/heavy mercenary or gladiator

[weary ibex]

Thanks! 🙂

[tired meadow]

Hey, I was looking at the ring and svrolls of quest fixing mod on ps4, and have a couple of quest suggestions. The mod page said to talk to the autor here. How do I do that?

[sudden fog]

Anyone have an idea as to why I can't get exp in either armor skill when wearing armor while using certain race mods?

I'm using Skyrim Creations - Playable Naga https://share.google/uF3Dsyyyzw5ycLMep

And

Skyrim Creations - Hirschbok's Playable Minotaur Race https://share.google/H0wak5S2bcOcfwyB4

And both are not gaining armor skill exp despite wearing armor

Would changing load order help?

[mortal plume]

No. The mods are the prob

[sudden fog]

Damn...

I appreciate the response, @mortal plume

[silver talon]

Scaled Plate armor, maybe?

[sudden fog]

Hey @rain oxide, are weaponized flutes able to be reinforced in your Weaponized Junk mod? I can't seem to find it in the smithing menu

[sudden fog]

@storm notch I think jaum is a bot or got hacked

[storm notch]

Taken care of, thanks for the ping

[sudden fog]

Anytime! Thanks!

[native summit]

Any players interested in asynchronous in-game communication? You can place messages in the game and see messages or death markers left by other players.

So another thing to make Skyrim Dark Souls? Lol I think this one is kinda cool, tho.

[weary ibex]

Ooh! Good name idea. I was struggling with a name

[thorny sky]

Follower Dialogue Expansion: Olfina Gray-Mane 2.0 is available on Nexus!

2.0 adds 180 lines to Olfina, including new immersive interactions between Olfina and Whiterun's characters, full commentary on the Civil War, new outcome for if you reconcile Olfina with Jon, and more.

https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/172562

[silver talon]

@atomic mesa I don’t know if this is the correct channel to ask. I fixed my black face bug that was on my end.
But now: what should I do if the children appear half n’ked?

Like Load Order wise or something

[atomic mesa]

Visage only contains children textures for their faces and bodies, no meshes or other edits. Meaning whatever is making them appear that way is something else you’re using and I wouldn’t know what.

If they have no visual problems like the black face or rainbow face and are only lacking clothes, I would just use the reset NPC spell provided by Cheat Room. Or wait for them to respawn naturally.

[sharp helm]

try the resurrect or recycleactor console commands on them

[terse shard]

new game?

[hybrid escarp]

If im getting purple skinned folks thats missing skin textures correct?

[sharp helm]

yes

[silver talon]

New game. Just now tested via new character. It ‘works’, as in there is no black face.
Hmm… but the children just have vanilla designs…

[terse shard]

Do they have clothes?

[silver talon]

Yes

[terse shard]

There you go. Mods that change clothing can get wonky if installed on an existing game.

And mods often do not touch children. Might need a stand alone for them .

[silver talon]

I mean… I don’t intend to sound nosy, but the description says it has a children altering mod inside. I could’ve sworn that meant they have changes applied to them too.

[sudden fog]

Is there a mod on Bnet that allows you to favorite misc items like flutes and drums?

[terse shard]

Hard reset ?

[silver talon]

Hard reset is where you unplug the Xbox and so on, right?

Aventus Aretino for example

[silver talon]

Welp… I also tried making sure whether something in the LO conflicts. Only the VISAGE mod was enabled and it doesn’t work on them.

[sudden fog]

@zealous scarab got a bot

[tacit bane]

he got hacked i think

my friend got the same issue a while back but got his account back

[sudden fog]

Fair

[sudden fog]

I gotta say, I'm enjoying Skyrim's got Talent. Just wish I can favorite the instrument instead of going to the inv. @echo dune

[hybrid escarp]

So im having a body texture issue like its missing certain races. Only Khajit, Argonian, Dunmar and Nords have skin everyone else is purple.

Could this be a load out order issue or is it more likely a mod conflict since it was working before and the only thing new I installed was LOTD and its patches since then

[terse shard]

Sounds like a mod with missing textures

But weird if it was working before. Can’t imagine LotD having an impact on that.

[hybrid escarp]

Ive also seen it where they had purple skin under armor til I looked everything and left em au-natural and they had textures.

Its why I was wondering if it might be a overwrite issue

[silver talon]

@terse shard I’m not desperate for anything.
I did look up the ‘simple children’ mod via Nexus as mentioned on the VISAGE page. If you ask me, the reason why it doesn’t work (for me, at least) is likely because it’s very outdated.

[terse shard]

What would being “outdated” do? Mods from 2012 work just as well today as ever. Assuming updated to form44 or whatever for SSE. Only thing some mods might need on occasion is an AE patch.

[silver talon]

Well, one is that users report infinite loading on start screen, which thankfully isn’t a bug included in TXTECs bundle.

[terse shard]

That’s rarely a mod problem. Usually a LO thing.

Which mod are we talking about again. I might be able to test it too just for science

[silver talon]

Thing is, the Simple Children mod does what the original Nexus page says. But… doesn’t seem to have affect them via the Bundle.

And we’re talking about the VISAGE mods.

The mod is basically no longer supported via Nexus because the author has long since moved away.

[terse shard]

This one? https://creations.bethesda.net/en/skyrim/details/e4400c55-3f49-44ee-bc2d-da35f5a5c605/Skytone___Visage___1K___BC7

[silver talon]

Yes, but it could be any one of them since they’re all in a sense the same.

[terse shard]

Yea. But specifically the skins? I’ll test 1k.

[silver talon]

I won’t press you, but what might help also is pairing with it the hair module too.

[terse shard]

Help?

[silver talon]

It’s not required but may just make it better.

Think of it as an add on.

[terse shard]

So neither the skin or the hair mod works on children ?

[silver talon]

Not to my exp at least

[terse shard]

All I can say is I think they work but the change is incredibly subtle. If I hadn’t been testing I would not have noticed. Had to go back and forth between screenshots to notice a slight skin tone difference and slight diff color on the hair.

I think the main benefit of those mods seems to be increased optimization and such not really making a true appearance improvement.

[silver talon]

I can see that too.

It was almost merely my understanding alone that it does that.

Seeing that it adds in redone meshes and textures. Let alone it does say that mod is included. It seems that there are just mild alterations to it.

[hybrid escarp]

So im dealing with game crashes after installing a few more mods. Is anyone good at reading the crash logger files to help me determine the cause?

[thorny sky]

Follower Dialogue Expansion: Ralof is available on Nexus!
This mod makes Ralof a fully-fledged follower with 551 lines. Extensive reaction to the main quest, Civil War, and various locations.

The Dragonborn's best bro from Helgen. You're finally awake!

https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/180198

[carmine hull]

Imma level, I couldn't care less about the stormcloaks. I'm all for rebellions but in the grand scheme of tamriel they're not condusive to pushing out the thalmor and other explicit evils

[silver talon]

It may be easier if we can read it through a google doc

[hybrid escarp]

Im not sure what happened cause even previous perfectly working mods went wonky

Cause im am very much at a loss

[hybrid escarp]

This is the current log, guards still naked, still no female textures and crash entering drunken huntsman

[crystal stone]

Along with the new 7.0.0 update to Deadly Dragons, the long-requested armory extension from Oldrim has finally been ported:
https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/180248

[weary ibex]

Anyone here good with esps? I need help making one for an armor mod I'm making because I'm on an older version of Skyrim.

[normal goblet]

im currently trying to install some addons and vortex is telling me that its missing "masters" as _ResourcePack.esl what am i exactly supposed to do

[normal goblet]

also game crashes 2-3 seconds in the intro

[flat vault]

Resource pack is part of skyrim. SE. If it was removed from your data files. Verify files on steam.

[normal goblet]

i have manually reversed AE to SE is it the issue

[flat vault]

Not sure. Might be.

[queen aurora]

Is there a mod that replaces who will be the Jarl of Riften when siding with the Imperials? I really don't want Maven on the throne.

[carmine hull]

Not that I know of but I think there's thieves guild for good guys or some other thieves guild mod that let's you basically tell her who's really boss of riften

[flat vault]

https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/53248

[queen aurora]

Thanks!

[flat vault]

https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/115297

Your Welcome.

[carmine hull]

Is that on Xbox? I actually dig it.

[copper estuary]

I have a question for everyone , yall download mods for Skyrim ps5/xbox and it kicks you guys out or it just me

[tired turtle]

Are you getting any error messages or just disconnecting?

[copper estuary]

Both

[tired turtle]

What do the error messsages say?

[fossil nova]

I had trouble on my Xbox today also, but different

I downloaded 3 or 4 mods today no problem

I typically go offline to enable and move mods around and I did so

Then went back online to play/test and all was well

Then wanted to 'like' some mods but ctd when trying to get into my LO. Did this 3 times over the space of 30-40 minutes. It's been months since I went into my LO while online since it kept jumbling on me. No messages just 15 seconds after pressing Y the Xbox crashes. Never jumbled. I did wait for the Creations page to load fully every time. Any ideas?

[terse shard]

Don’t like any mods

[fossil nova]

[unborn bridge]

Do we know if bethesda plans on adding or doing an update for skyrims 15 year anniversary? Any rumors?

[vague aurora]

As per the #rules, we do not allow the discussion of rumors.

[charred acorn]

skyrim and the collections on nexus are so good!

[tired shale]

Small question, on ps5, do I still need the ordinator textures patch or is that included in the main mod with it? Kinda wondering because the main mod is about the size of this patch that adds the textures

[mild horizon]

is there anyone who could port this mod to Xbox and maybe have the clothes replace vanilla clothes

https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/179901?tab=description

[terse shard]

Needs permission to port first

[sudden fog]

I assume for mods like a dual wield/unarmed block, disable and enable depending on thr character playstyle?

And what mod on xbox would you recommend for that?

[weary ibex]

Made progress on my armor mod!

Here's some better photos with better lighting and fov

[mild horizon]

nvm folks

[sudden fog]

That looks really good! Steel armor standalone or replacer?

[weary ibex]

Thanks! It'll be standalone! 🙂

[sudden fog]

Will it be ported to xbox?

And is there a helmet?

[weary ibex]

I'll try and see what I can do. If I don't do it myself then I'll be open to someone else porting it

[sudden fog]

That's fair

[weary ibex]

No helmet unfortunately. I'm not very good at those. Lol. I recommend combining it with helmets from other mods though. I use a sorta circlet crown thing with it myself.

[sudden fog]

Ah ok

[weary ibex]

Nevermind actually. I think I might have figured it out! 🙂

[weary ibex]

Actually yes now.

Still a work in progress

[weary ibex]

I didn't like the point. Lol

[sudden fog]

@storm notch got another one

[fossil nova]

Very nice! But NGL that triangle on the rear makes it look like he's wearing a thong

[weary ibex]

Thanks! Also, lol

[sinful mica]

Anyone know where the hidden switch is for the “into strange depths” mod? I’ve been scouring the solitude sewer and still can’t find it, the conjoined alter or any locked gates.

[signal mango]

Have you found the note in the sewer yet?

[sinful mica]

Yeah and then I found the switch literally like an hour ago. Now I’m stumped for a new reason. Went to both forts (demented and manic) and retrieved their respective keys and staff halves but it doesn’t open the well grates nor do they open the main gate to the alter. Where are the other keys?

[signal mango]

Anyone fancy uploading the up todate version of Durnehviir Redone mod on Xbox please? They recently released a critical update to fix the dragon from spinning after summoning. The mod page on nexus gives full permission to port as long as they're credited.

[summer lichen]

👋

[dreamy gorge]

I'm making a mod, well a few

[quasi wraith]

So excited that this is a thing now

[mystic sparrow]

Oh I know you

You're doing things with my stuff

[dreamy gorge]

This the trainwiz?

[mystic sparrow]

You know it.

I thought the Sotha Silemon icon would give it away

[dreamy gorge]

I like the mods you've made

[pine crown]

👀

[brave wing]

Looks around.
Few familiar names and faces are popping in.

I do have one question. Will Bethesda Launcher continue as before? 64bit CKs are behind it and people are between curious and worried about them.

[pine crown]

I'd assume so since that doesn't use the forums at all.

[brave wing]

So would I, but I am seeing plenty of questions about it.

[night rover]

Only the forum software is being sunset. This also impacts mod and article comments, which are powered by the forums.

There aren't any other changes being made to the mods platform, the launcher, or Bethesda.net in general.

[brave wing]

Great. I'll pass that information forward. 👍

[wise fable]

So basically the only use of the forum account is to upload mod?

This is a bad idea IMO. Anyway, glad Nexus is still there for forum posting ...

[tender vapor]

While I'm glad I don't need to check Beth.net anymore for comments I think it's incredibly dumb that they don't implement a new commenting system.

I'm not sure how I'm going to handle console support now. I may either direct them to my Nexus page or here.

[pine crown]

Redirecting people to Nexus if you're already there seems like the go to option.

[night rover]

Bethesda.net accounts are used for all sorts of things, in addition to the Mods platform. It provides in-game profiles, allows you to track support tickets, contains any Bethesda.net games, et cetera.

[rare oak]

Oh that's good to know, hadn't realised it would affect comments too

[echo pivot]

I'd direct them here. People are too lazy to head over to the nexus.

[pine crown]

Things are going to become a big mess if everyone starts doing that. No organization. Information will get lost in the middle of multiple conversations going on at once. Forums are far better for keeping things tidy.

[rare oak]

I'll definitely direct bug reports to the Nexus, it has a great system for keeping track of them whereas they'll just get lost on discord

[echo pivot]

Indeed. The only reason I suggested here is cause a lot of people are too lazy to visit the nexus.

[pine crown]

For a lot of authors that's going to be the only viable solution. It may not be that expensive for them to set up their own site somewhere, but it involves a lot of technical skill and is a huge time sink to keep things running smoothly.

[tender vapor]

I've thought about using GitHub for bug reports but that seems like it would probably be needlessly complicated

also hi JR

[rare oak]

Hey Pierre!

[tender vapor]

this is a good point
Nexus seems the better option, I thought it might help keep the console and PC crowd separate but it's probably not worth it

[pine crown]

GitHub isn't really designed to make that work well for modding support. People have done it, but it's kind of a mess.

[rare oak]

It is going to be a bit of a pain having to ask people to state which platform they're on

[tender vapor]

I have some pretty nice issue temples I use for finding bugs in WIP projects, but for released projects I don't think it has any advantage over Nexus with finished projects

[white fractal]

Guilty as charged. Been a member there since 2009 and haven't posted in many years. That's going to have to change. Been here for 10 minutes, and can already see this place isn't the least bit impressive. God, I miss the old Bethsoft.com forums.

[tender vapor]

RIP Beth Fourms

[tulip coral]

I've been lurking for years so you wouldn't have seen me around often, but I too will miss it

[uneven crown]

Are nexus links allowed to be posted here?

[worn cypress]

Yes, but ensure the linked content abides by the server rules

[uneven crown]

I just wanted to get opinions on my little New Lands mod - there's nothing NSFW in it

[echo pivot]

RIP.

[uneven crown]

https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/41281

What do y'all think?

I do belong on one

[night rover]

Directing folks to this Discord to provide information on your mods would be a little weird, but folks can easily start their own servers (if you want).

[spring echo]

Could also direct to the Nexus Mods Discord as well

[echo pivot]

I plan on adding a discord link to the mods that me and my partner release. That was a suggestion I had. Not a lot of people would want to go to the nexus. (It's a lot of work apparently) but indeed.

[spring echo]

There are a lot of modding community servers that people could take the support to

Maybe mod authors could collectively start a Modding Support server?

[echo pivot]

that sounds like a great idea honestly

[wet thunder]

I know a few modders lock the support discords behind patreons and stuff which has always seemed crappy to me

[pine crown]

I have a forum and server already so people can use those if they want, or just go to Nexus and find my stuff there. So I guess I'm ahead of the curve?

[wet thunder]

[echo pivot]

Yep.

[wet thunder]

Realising now whereil i know your name from arth or rather which mods

[echo pivot]

oh wow, Arthmoor, too? Everyone is here lol

[wet thunder]

This is like modders paradise tbh

[echo pivot]

I'm just surprised this place doesn't have any nitro boosts yet

then again, I also wouldn't be surprised if this ended up as an official discord partner server soon

[wet thunder]

I can't buy any from mobile 😔

[echo pivot]

oof lol

[wet thunder]

Guess I'll get out of bed for a moment

[echo pivot]

lol, that feels like you are calling out like half of everyone here

[spring echo]

Save your money. It's MICROSOFT

[echo pivot]

if you're gonna buy anyone anything please get me nitro /hj

[wet thunder]

It's fine it's free it's just not letting me use it on my phone for some reason

[spring echo]

If they want boosts they have the septims to buy them 😄 If you want to support Discord servers, I would suggest boosting one of the mod author servers

[echo pivot]

Just wait to simps to come over

[wet thunder]

I'm boosting a few smaller servers rn tbf

[echo pivot]

lol I will probably have less simps since I literally put that I am a lesbian in my introduction

[spring echo]

That's very nice of you!

[wet thunder]

I don't mind it gives people more emotes

[echo pivot]

I mean Bnet simps and MA´s simps they will come

oh lol

[wet thunder]

Plus having a pink name is cool

[echo pivot]

pink names are very cool

[echo pivot]

Also being lesbian doesn´pt mean you will have less simps 😅

pink is a great color

wear pink everyone, I dare you

lol

I'm working on my first mod rn. Decent sized for what it is but I wanted to put my Dwarven lore to the test.

[echo pivot]

exactly

[echo pivot]

ooh sounds cool, might wanna hear more about that

when I think of mods related to Dwarven lore, I think of Dwemertech first and foremost though. Plus, the spells are really cool

you can really feel like a tonal architect with all that

[dreamy gorge]

I plan to post a teaser when it's ready, or about a week out

It's an entire Aetherius journey is what I'll say

[echo pivot]

aw, I'm sure people would be interested in hearing more about it sooner lol

even if it's your first it sounds like a great idea

and hey, if you advertise it, you can get people to work on it with you, and it can be even better

[dreamy gorge]

It'll only be on Nexus which sucks tbh, only because the Dwemer mod dependency requires SKSE.

[echo pivot]

Fair

SKSE is a necessity to do cool stuff, as far as I know, and I'm not a coder so idk lol

[dreamy gorge]

One day I do hope to do stuff like my own models and such then let everyone experience it

Skyrim gives alot of Dwemer assets alone so custom ones don't cross me

[echo pivot]

two questions about it:

1. Will it have custom spells?
2. Will it have Yagrum?

[dreamy gorge]

1 possibly and for 2 I'm debating

[echo pivot]

if you got voice acting for it, voice acted Yagrum would be very cool. I would like to see a combination of a Dwemer accent and the effect of corprus on his throat. Although, I think a lot of the time Yagrum writes instead of talking

[dreamy gorge]

about two Dwarves will be involved I can say, one alive and has a lore reasoning, and the other is a spector. last seen in Morrowind. The best way to describe it so far is like what Tribunal was. A City

[echo pivot]

Okay. Proper Dwemer city. Sounds nice

[dreamy gorge]

It'll have a few themes but a whole questline to go through and some side stuff ofc.

Primarily you'll see a Dwarven City and all kinds of cool stuff including sewers

[echo pivot]

It will be cool to see what you do with Aetherius

[dreamy gorge]

It's a place I'd love BGS to explore more of

Aetherius is so cool

The Skybox alone

[echo pivot]

yeah

you know, if you think about it lorewise, the sky in Nirn is actually just a skybox

since the sun and stars are holes in it and stuff

[dreamy gorge]

never though of it like that, but now I can't stop thinking about it lol

I just though like 2 hours ago that I can make a Tavern in a ship. Mainly because it sounds cool and I get to use the Ship model.

I do also plan on making some music tracks for the mod too once I've nearly wrapped up. the Title is coming very soon too as I'm over half way now.

[echo pivot]

Nice. New music is always great

[wet thunder]

am pink

[dreamy gorge]

modding is a dream come true honestly, I remember being young and playing Skyrim on the 360. back then i dreamed of playing mods.

I'm young now but about 8 years ago young

[wet thunder]

@spring echo an out of the blue question but have you ever considered doing a house like the heartfire ones where you build it up over time?

[spring echo]

I can't script worth crap and programming/engineering gives me anxiety so not really XD

I also don't much care for that feature, I hated collecting so many materials for the HF homes 😄

[dreamy gorge]

Achievement hunting to make 3 large houses was a nightmare

[wet thunder]

awh yeah i understand the frustration personally i enjoyed seeing the house progress over time but not the material collection \

[candid flume]

You guys actually did that? Please accept a digital tip of my hat.

[wet thunder]

ive done it uhhh

[candid flume]

I built one and it was at least 10 hrs of gameplay

[wet thunder]

19 times

[dreamy gorge]

Still not as bad as the Fallout 4 get 100% happiness achieve

That took forever

[wet thunder]

ive done that once and never again

[dreamy gorge]

Same

[wet thunder]

its a shame more mods didnt follow that model tbh

and any that did are stuck on legendary edition never to be ported

[night rover]

It's rare for mods to allow you to build a house up from nothing, given all of the implementation work, but some authors allow you to customize some decorations, or even toggle entire rooms.

[mystic sparrow]

My house mod let you slot in rooms via a computer butler!

[wet thunder]

Aye I know there's a whole series of kids out there that let you build towns and things but they're not often as ornate as things like Elianoras

My phone likes to say kids over mods

[spring echo]

I made one in collaboration with Darkfox127, Mörskom

he even upgraded it for SSE

[wet thunder]

Isn't that the haunted dawnstar home?

I didn't realise you collabated on that it's probably my favourite building mod out of them all that I've tried

He also did caranthir which is another fun one I did

[spring echo]

😄

Yeah it's a collab between us

[wet thunder]

It did feel like one of your houses once it was finished tbh it was my mage home

[chrome olive]

My favorite house mod is the Staff of Shalidor.
Such a cool mod.

[uneven crown]

Out of housing mods, I really like Aemer's Refuge

[chrome olive]

Project AHO and Carved Brink are incredible.

[dreamy gorge]

What was that Dwemer airship mod. I forgot it's name

It was a house. It's going to bug me now

[past harbor]

its part of project AHO

[chrome olive]

Yeah.
The whole Project AHO mod is a really cool story as well as the flying/teleporting ship.

[past harbor]

yea AHO is dope, not to mention how great the place looks

[chrome olive]

AHO is awesome.
Carved Brink (by the same team) is also really good. Goes into stranger things of TES lore

[echo pivot]

Good mods indeed!

[past harbor]

carved brink is one i havent had the opportunity to check out yet, ill put it in my LO for my next playthrough!

[chrome olive]

I know it breaks things but I love the Character Creation Overhaul

Classes AND a way to manage your progression in your class

Permenant birthsigns too.

[echo pivot]

What does it break?

[chrome olive]

Ive noticed that with some other mods, it breaks some mods that involve similar things towards levelling and what each aspect does.

Standing Stone mods are only somewhat compatible Ive noticed

Though perk tree mods are fine.

[echo pivot]

Well that’s not breaking things. Just a conflict.

[pallid otter]

Standing Stone mods are fully compatible. It just doesn’t change the text.

[chrome olive]

Ah right.

Its been a while without my old load order.

[echo pivot]

Just go all CCO if you like it.

Are you on Xbox?

[chrome olive]

I have an Xbox.
But currently, Ive been focusing on my Orc Sorcerer on Switch

I do love CCO.

Skills start at 5 unless your race boosts it. And class boosts skills as well.

As well as boosted level speed for those skills

[echo pivot]

Yea it’s well done

[wind stag]

Wassup

Really no modder/ porter roles?

[night fractal]

Give them time, its still day 1

[tribal comet]

porter role? so we know who's going to carry our bags?

[mystic sparrow]

When you ride the rails it's important

[tribal comet]

what if you ride the dragon?

[wind stag]

You go in circles

[prime ginkgo]

Not enough love for Skyrim mods around here

[oak niche]

Huh, no reference at all to Creation Club? Maybe it's dead.

[sacred trout]

I assume creation club discussions will just be held in the skyrim/fallout-chat section or this one.

Though they could easily add a section dedicated to it.

[sage echo]

Creation club is not mods. This is the mod chat. Check #skyrim-chat

[pine crown]

I don't think it would be a bad idea to have a category specifically for it.

[oak niche]

It may not be typically classed as a mod, but it isn't base game content either.

[sage echo]

Is there a reason you pinged me when I'm right here? Very illogical.

[pine crown]

I feel sorry for anyone trying to discuss it right now on the main skyrim channel though. Way too much meme spam.

[sage echo]

Indeed. Good grief.

[pine crown]

None of which is even game related at all.

[oak niche]

I was just responding to your post.
No need to be so hostile.

[sage echo]

O_o wut

Very illogical indeed.

[oak niche]

Umm.....ok.

[waxen mist]

Answering to a post through discord automatically pings the person responded to. You can disable it, but sometimes someone forgets.
Give feedback to discord if you want to have it not pinging by default

[pine crown]

Hopefully it's ok to post this, cause yeah, the more upvotes this gets the better: https://support.discord.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/360052506793-Turn-reply-ping-default-off

[wet thunder]

:+1:

[uneven crown]

Bro is that the legend himself

Like, THE Arthmoor?

[pine crown]

Yes, it's THE me 😛

[timber kiln]

They need to make a role for modders that have made well-known contributions

I'm really mad at myself for not installing your open cities mod before starting Skyrim VR

Speaking of, is it safe to use the unofficial patch in the VR port? I feel like it's too different a port to use your patch with

[pine crown]

Not really, no. USSEP relies too closely on the distributed game files and the VR side was forked from before the CC first came in.

[timber kiln]

Makes sense. Rule of thumb for modding would probably be to consider them two different games.

[pine crown]

You could try this though: https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/31673 I'm not entirely sure what this is doing but it's supposed to be able to account for the differences in the data files used by VR vs the main SSE fork.

Yeah, Nexus should really have VR in its own game section but for some reason they chose not to.

[timber kiln]

If they did, Fallout 4 VR might have had more of a following

Then again, the engine for Fallout 4 vr doesn't allow for the same kinda VR mods, which is weird. Even VR hands doesn't want to work most of the time.

[wind stag]

Is there somewhere for Skyrim port requests?

[candid flume]

That’s so weird because I always thought illogical behavior better described pointless things like reacting to a post and then removing said reaction for no reason. O_o O_o

[wind stag]

Right generally when I'm trying to reply to a individual I want them to know that I am replying to what they said not another comment in the thread

Hey Enai

[summer lichen]

I have no idea how to tell people now that I can't update Sacrilege

[candid flume]

Wait where did the “k” go?

That’s so illogical

[wind stag]

Why can't you?

[summer lichen]

That would be called "Mod of the Month Author"

[summer lichen]

No comments

And the version log doesn't work correctly in the ingame client

[wind stag]

Enai, thanks again for the info on champollion, that helped me out so much

[summer lichen]

Also now there's even LESS discoverability 🤔

Beth.net already has a massive problem with discoverability for new mod releases

[candid flume]

Bnet is well known for its Google-like functionality 🤣

[summer lichen]

My old mods are far more popular on Beth.net than on the Nexus but everything new I release fails on Beth.net

• No functional search (I had to add a keyword to my mod pages so people would be able to find anything since you can't search on author and there's a cap on the number of search results, most recent/least relevant mods first; hell, people can't even find Ordinator sometimes because it puts it allllll the way behind every mod that name drops it in the description)

[wind stag]

Ugh. Mod cap remover is a life saver

[summer lichen]

• No such thing as "mod of the week" or "most popular mods by month", the only mods you can realistically find are 1/ new ones (90% trash) and 2/ all time most popular (read: was released before SSE and/or made by an author with beta access)

• Category view is unhelpfully sorted by date uploaded (90% trash) on consoles, with no apparent way to reorder it by popularity

[candid flume]

That’s funny because I just installed ordinator yesterday and had to ask in our discord how to search for it. I was told moonprince and that did work well.

[summer lichen]

End result: mods cannot be found unless the author is already popular and has a sufficently rare author name to be findable

[wind stag]

@summer lichen I would just like to say thank you for allowing me to work and have access to your mods, diving into them has given me an even greater appreciation for your work beyond the benefits gained in-game.

And I will always do my best to give your mods the justice they deserve

[candid flume]

I’d like to parrot what Snipey says. Also good to see you again. We haven’t shared a discord server since Rangers of Lore days.

[summer lichen]

I requested more discoverability features several times but nothing came of it

[wind stag]

Hopefully ES6 will be better.

[summer lichen]

Like, simply arrange category view by "most popular mods past 4 weeks" and it'll feature a healthy mix of known good mods and successful new releases

[wind stag]

Noo

Your work is fantastic and it would be a sad day to lose your vision on future titles

[summer lichen]

If "most popular all time" fills up before I can even download the CK (let's be honest, I'll never get a beta key), I'm at a disadvantage right off the bat

Anyway I'll give Sacrilege 2.x another try

I was unable to upload the update for two weeks straight, let's see if anything changed

[wind stag]

If you would not mind pinging me if you are able to update it, I would like you carry forward any updates on the mod bundle of your work I uploaded.

[summer lichen]

Ya /r/skyrimmods drifted away and Simonrim banned me so I'm mostly on the Wabbajack discord and my "own"

[candid flume]

You must be at update #5 or higher. Bnet is having problems updating above that. Maybe they will divert system resources used to power the sunsetting forum over to the launcher?

[summer lichen]

Ah yes, update #5

Because the ingame client doesn't mirror your version numbers

For reasons

[wind stag]

Is that still not addressed?

[summer lichen]

1.8.4 becomes "update 12" and then you get people complaining about update 12

And you have no idea wtf it is

[wind stag]

Really wish Bethesda had given Nexus the rights to the console modding platform

[summer lichen]

Nope, still unable to update Sacrilege 😭

[candid flume]

[summer lichen]

I hope Sangreal doesn't have the same issue 🤔

🤔 can I put links in a mod description

[candid flume]

That might work, but unfortunately console lacks any ability to select or act on them though. Best option is to advertise your search term(s) everywhere but only use them very selectively.

[wind stag]

@pine crown would I have permission to port USSEP as a lite version similar to PS4, without any mesh/ textures to reduce the rather large file size, to give players other options to enjoy your content?

[royal nexus]

Sooo, they decided that they'd rather close forums with CC-delay complaints than post an update about it? 😄

[echo pivot]

I assumed CC was done.

Is it just a delay?

[edgy monolith]

Hi everyone, we’ve had a lot of queries about new content for Creation Club. It means a lot to us to see this enthusiasm, but we don’t have any news to share at this time. Many creators have been able to work on content through the pandemic, and we’re looking forward to releasing this. However, for a variety of reasons, it’s not something we can do just yet.

As always, thank you for your continued patience and support.
-cartogriffi

there is at the very least stuff in the works, we have no idea if any of it is finished

there was meant to be content released by the end of last year, however that was delayed

[royal nexus]

Yeah, it's more than a year of delay now 😦

I wouldn't be that much dissapointed if they just told how much stuff did they did. If it would be a massive update as big as 5-6 normal updates then i wouldn't complain

[edgy monolith]

i just want my necroarts pack

been hyped ever since i first spotted it in the ccc file

got a necromancer character planned and all

[royal nexus]

Im most hyped for Armor Alternatives: Iron

It looks so rough it's gorgeous

[marsh lotus]

Hey, guys, that one MP mod gone open source

[mild epoch]

My favorite creation club item is the arcane arrows (I think that's what they're called) especially the telekineses arrows

I just use all the free stuff

I mean when the arcane arrows were made free I instantly went to grab them because they were so cool

[echo pivot]

Survival mode is worth the money IMO. Most others are not.

[royal nexus]

Yeah, Survival Mode is the best thing on CC

[mild epoch]

I think it would be cool if we got some like dlc sized stuff y'know

[royal nexus]

i wish they made more gameplay CCs

[mild epoch]

maybe add achievments to CC if they really wanna push it

[echo pivot]

But they are decent. Just not “worth it” unless you are financially flexible.

[mild epoch]

like "Obtain Umbra" or "find the anchient magic"

[full elbow]

Dwarven Crab is totally worth it

[royal nexus]

They are great piece of art (not you Elven Hunter) but they are bit overpriced. Altough since most of them are going on -100% discount the overpriced argument isn't that valid

[echo pivot]

It works very well. Seamless integration into the vanilla game. Some mods needs patches but many include the survival key words already.

[mild epoch]

I think the best way to justify the price is to make the Creation Club a actual viable dlc type thing

[edgy monolith]

yeah but i always end up preferring creation club alternatives to mods, survival mode is much more streamlined and integrates the best into the game imo, all the armour sets look like they could fit in skyrim which cannot be said about most modded armours

etc

[royal nexus]

without access to VA the best we can hope in terms of dlc type things is restoring cut content

[edgy monolith]

except maybe arcane accessories, but even that can be nice in its simplicity

[mild epoch]

I mean I imagined stuff like Dragonborn and Dawnguard or atleast Hearthfire when Creation Club was announced

[royal nexus]

i would gladly pay for Civil War restoration

[edgy monolith]

that said i do heavily mod my game as well, i just do so alongside every single creation released thus far :)

[mild epoch]

yeah except then people would complain about them just selling things that are already in the game

Ty @pine crown we don't deserve you

[night rover]

Hi folks, this channel is for discussing community mods. If you want to discuss official content like Creation Club, the best place to do that is in #skyrim-chat

[edgy monolith]

carto can we get a creation club channel?

[royal nexus]

Maybe you could give us a chat for CC? Because it's not that comfortable to talk about CC among memes about arrow in the knee

[edgy monolith]

actually maybe thats better for suggestions lol

[mild epoch]

Oh we should get a chat for Creation Club

we should just ask for that in server suggestions actually

[summer lichen]

Reason I'm not doing a lich mod yet

My luck says the CC will do the same thing when I'm almost done

Use Sunhelm

[echo pivot]

Honestly, you could do it really well, and it would be great to see the contrast between yours, CC's, and Undeath

[echo pivot]

People will probably like yours better.

[past harbor]

is sunhelm lighter than frostfall?

[edgy monolith]

is vodahmin not your lich mod or are you planning on doing eventually another lich mod after?

[echo pivot]

Unfortunately sunhelm is not on console.

Sorry just figured out the reply off thing.

[ebon anchor]

We could convince Meister to find a workaround lol

Aye, It's worth the try tho

[wind stag]

So was asking Arthmoor... Sadly no answer.

True, my request was 6hrs after his last comment.

[pine crown]

Relax guys, I only just logged on. As for the request, I'm afraid not, I've already explained this to the person who asked on Nexus and I don't think this medium here is really well suited for getting into those weeds again.

[wind stag]

No my apologies I had not considered the time zones

But as to my request, I'm not asking if you will port, but rather permission for someone else to.

[pine crown]

I think I've made myself clear on that already, but if you want that answer here, the answer is no.

[finite frigate]

are you saying you would do it, or someone else would?

[wind stag]

I would gladly, but I do not have permission

[finite frigate]

considering you are a ps4 user, do you even have any experience handling a large scale bugfix project

[wind stag]

Unfortunately Xbox cannot have the same ussep port as PS4

[finite frigate]

you can feel free to start your own bugfix project and implement similar fixes to ussep

[wind stag]

I'm not a PS4 user, I mod and port exclusively for Xbox

[finite frigate]

so why are you even asking arthmoor

[royal nexus]

Hello Arthmoor! Some time ago i spoke with Janquel who makes compatches for basicly everything (what a cool guy!) especially between town overhauls. I asked him then why didn't he made compatches between Great Cities and your towns and he said that he asked for your permission on nexus and got radio silence. I told him then that it's hard to contact you this way and advised him to catch you on your AFK forum. I don't know if he did, but if he would would you agree? I wonder

[wind stag]

That's a fine line

Implementing the same or similar changes that Arthmoor has already done would be in violation of dmca

[finite frigate]

thats not how dmca works

[pine crown]

Ask him to contact me again on Nexus. That's the kind of thing I need to have on record there in case issues come up in the future. Not in a chat system where it'll be lost in an hour.

[finite frigate]

nor copyright

[royal nexus]

Okay! Thanks for replyy!

[wind stag]

And Arthmoor thank you for your time, I just wanted to be clear on my request for me to handle the port not yourself.

[summer lichen]

Careful, those eggshells you're walking on are slippery

[wind stag]

Yes ussep is his creation implementing those changes without accreditation is a dmca violation

[summer lichen]

Also, I think anyone is free to implement whatever changes they want, just not copy original content

[wind stag]

I will not without his permission

Wow really

[finite frigate]

lool enai

[summer lichen]

Read what I said you malfunctioning bot

😠

[wind stag]

Lmao

[summer lichen]

Report blitz

[wind stag]

@finite frigate you cannot use someone else's work and claim it as your own.

[pine crown]

Good afternoon to you too Enai 😛

[wind stag]

Isn't that correct Arthmoor?

[candid flume]

Yes, that is the real Arthmoor.

[pine crown]

I think you dropped this bait.

[wind stag]

What bait? No I did sincerely wish to take over a scaled down version of your USSEP with permission, but for months now I had been told any requests on Nexus had been left unanswered, so when I saw you here I thought this would be my best opportunity.

[pine crown]

There's been exactly one request for this and I answered it already there. I don't want to get into this here, your question has been asked and answered. Please leave it at that.

[wind stag]

Tanis only mentioned something to me a couple hours ago when in TfT I spoke about reaching out

[candid flume]

This will be an interesting server once all the remaining active mod authors on Bnet are here.

Eventually, they must all find their way to this new salvation.

[wind stag]

But I have been told by numerous people Arthmoor is hard to get ahold of

[echo pivot]

I mean he probably has his own discord server right?

[candid flume]

Who?

[wind stag]

But how am I to interpret this?

Nevermind I can't attach a screenshot

[echo pivot]

Arthmoor

[wind stag]

@buoyant kite no winter something else

But I couldn't post screenshot

[candid flume]

If I remember correctly, he does have a discord server. He has not sent me an invite link yet so I cannot confirm.

[wind stag]

Welcome back

[tribal comet]

who's arthmoor?

[edgy monolith]

author of the unofficial patch and cutting room floor

[tribal comet]

ohhh

[edgy monolith]

[strange cosmos]

[fossil summit]

[chrome olive]

Spotlight on my favorite UI skin.

Dear Diary gives a great Oblivion style paper UI. I love it.

[edgy monolith]

theres a very new ui mod that i like, BANDIT UI

worth checking out, though I think its got some bugs that need ironing out rn

[finite frigate]

sigh

[edgy monolith]

[pine crown]

That's a pretty cool take on the quest journal.

[unkempt carbon]

I wish immersive lighting could have settings to make it a little brighter

[fierce sigil]

Some old faces here all under one roof

[echo pivot]

Probably going to get rather crowded soon.

[teal jasper]

tbh i would not be surprised if someone modded in bladed weapons and staffs from PSO2 into Skyrim, that would be something i would have wanted for ages since it released

[wind stag]

@candid flume weird I see no mention of dragonplate armor in the description?

[candid flume]

Oh wait 🤣 that’s not right

[sharp helm]

Did Arthmoor do amidianborn?

Ah, i see

[wind stag]

Why would you include stuff that's not AMidianBorn in the AMidianBorn pack?

[candid flume]

Look at those juicy source files under optional https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/3846?tab=files

[wind stag]

I mean that is some good looking textures

[candid flume]

They are divine

[wind stag]

But I'll stick with MeisterB's AMidianBorn port, a complete AiO for 241mb

Heck I might actually start using Amulets of Skyrim now that its under 50mb and ussep free

I still don't understand why some porters include it as a master when literally no records are dependent upon it?

[candid flume]

I can’t figure that out either 😂

[wind stag]

I'm currently working on a armor and weapon bundle to compliment and complete AMidianBorn so you'd only need mods to cover all armor and weapons and a 3rd for clothing

[night rover]

Hi folks, please do not use Discord to discuss moderation matters. If there's a problem with a mod, just report it.

[wind stag]

But she's only discussing potential mod replacement

[wind stag]

Due to personal preference

@night rover 👆

Is that allowed?

And @buoyant kite I think I came across a replacer for that, let me look around again

[steady harbor]

Have you tried:

https://bethesda.net/en/mods/skyrim/mod-detail/4182001

[night rover]

It's fine to discuss replacements, there's conversation right above discussing moderation.

[wind stag]

Ahh

My apologies, I thought you were referring to our conversation

@steady harbor that still uses the AMidianBorn textures

[steady harbor]

Different ones though. And they're much better than the ones in BOS.

The fur portions of armors isn't that orange/brown.

[wind stag]

Bos?

[steady harbor]

Book of Silence.

[wind stag]

Ah

[steady harbor]

They're alternate versions and, IMO, much better. I didn't like the fur portions of Fur/Scale/Studded in the main version either. These are better.

The Steel Pack has some different versions as well.

[tender vapor]

Working on a little something
https://youtu.be/pJ10ADlM_68

[meager spade]

looks like a skeever

[tender vapor]

wow rude

opus is doing some skeleton edits I think

[spring adder]

is that using the skeever skeleton

[final cliff]

the online mod is good but its hard when it is bugged and 10 dragons spawn on you when your on legendary difficulty at the beginning of the game

[tender vapor]

Fairly certain that's the dog skeleton

[edgy monolith]

hey pierre, big fan of your mods

[tender vapor]

Oh why thank you Prisoner

[edgy monolith]

thank you for redeeming the divine crusader creation and generally improving upon many others :P

[tender vapor]

Always a pleasure

I've looked into overhauling other CC quests, but it seems most of them are good enough as-is or the artifacts tied to them to "too big".

Like I feel any quest overhaul I made for the Sunder and Wraithguard would just feel lame.

[edgy monolith]

yeah as for quests imo divine crusader is the only one thats truly appalling being wielded by just bandits haha, as creation club progressed they definitely improved in that regard

sunder of wraithguard is fine imo, its simple but has a unique puzzle and boss, which is at least enough for me

[spiral crow]

Algum brasileiro, poderia me explicar como posso criar um mod? @everyone

[tender vapor]

yeah CC quests have gotten a lot better

initially I thought Lord's Mail or Cyrsamere needed work until I looked into their past quests. They were very similar to the CC's

[summer lichen]

That read like "glad ijs", slippery ice

[tender vapor]

glad ijs dog you say?

[wind stag]

Simpers gonna Simp.

[candid flume]

That's pretty nice, did you replace the default bark with an all new one or adjust the audio of vanilla?

[tender vapor]

I'm using audio from my corgi

going to have custom whines and such also

[candid flume]

xwm or wav? It is crisp coming through my PC speakers.

Oddly enough, some skyrim soundfx are wav iirc

[tender vapor]

you're probably not going to believe me, but I recorded it outside on my phone as an MP4, cleaned it up in Audacity, exported it as a WAV then implemented

[candid flume]

😂 no way

[wind stag]

Will it require USSEP?

[tender vapor]

I doubt it

[candid flume]

That was either perfect environmental by chance or just really good clean up. Nicely done.

[tender vapor]

thanks man

the way creature FX is handled is a pain to work with

so I still have a lot of work ahead of me to get a full voiceset

[wind stag]

Do you have plans for any other animal follower?

[tender vapor]

not really, I've just always wanted a corgi since I have a corgi
I have another mod that changes dog bark audio, another that make Vigilance a husky, and then I'm also working on a fully-fledged follower mod

shameless plug

[echo pivot]

You need one of the fancy colors

[wind stag]

I've seen quite a bit of your work actually, in fact I ported over a merged plugin of Briraka's Draugr Overhaul and your Ancient Nord Stalhrim to Xbox with USSEP dependency at @echo pivot request.

Well he didn't ask the USSEP part.

[tender vapor]

oh neato

[echo pivot]

Yea it’s a great combo

[tender vapor]

oh dear I'm so sorry Dyno

[wind stag]

?

[tender vapor]

I said "Yeah I've worked with Tanis a lot, he's my go-to when I need to test s*** on the Xbox."

Dyno didn't like that

[wind stag]

Lol

3 strikes and your muted

[edgy monolith]

really??

[wind stag]

Ask @buoyant kite

[edgy monolith]

fam ima get muted by accident

[tender vapor]

I don't think it was a strike

at least I had no indication that it was

the message was just deleted

[edgy monolith]

hmm fair

[wind stag]

Yeah she didn't either

She saw Enai get muted so she wanted to test what else would get muted... Then she got like a 10 minute mute

[pine crown]

Dyno tends to catch a lot of people off guard at first.

[dire cave]

We're still working with Dyno to make sure it is acting as reasonably for you all as possible. Please be sure to read over the rules to ensure you do not break them!

[tender vapor]

I must've missed the rule on swearing.

Unless it counts as "abusive language" which I didn't think to would.

[edgy monolith]

something something public server needs to be pg13

or something like that

[echo pivot]

Break two rules at once: Swear in a non-English language

[edgy monolith]

[remote wing]

This is going to be one fun chat for me here

I'll take that bonk with the banhammer :P

[candid flume]

On Nexus it does that automatically re censoring words. Some of my messages on there are impossible to comprehend consisting of S**** **** ******* Walmart ***** ***** but thank you 🤣

[azure frigate]

Allow me to add another request to the count.
People often wish for an Xbox USSEP similar to the cut down PS USSEP in a bunch of Discord servers.
I only use Nexus to look up mods so I'm unfamiliar with what is said there. Could you provide a link to your answer please?

[pine crown]

It was in a private message, so no, I can't link you to the answer.

[wind stag]

@azure frigate the answer will always be no, or no reply

I'm just glad that there are more mod authors who are open to modification of their files and removing certain unneeded dependencies

[edgy monolith]

i somewhat get it tho

man put effort into those fixes only for you to say you want to get rid of em

isnt no the natural answer

for PS its different because the mod cant be released with those certain fixes

but for xbox thats not the case

[wind stag]

I'm not asking to get rid of them completely I'm only asking to give people options which 90% of is overwritten

[pine crown]

The main reason is that it's asking for more work to be done that we don't feel is necessary. The PS4 version is a severely hacked cut down of the greater work and it's not without problems to this day because people are still finding bits and pieces of things that shouldn't still be in there.

[edgy monolith]

fair

[pine crown]

Adding a 3rd one that sits in between the two simply isn't feasible and not something we're going to do and not something we'll permit others to do either.

And this 90% overwritten thing is plain false. I have no idea where people are getting that from, other than reddit, where disinformation is the norm.

[wind stag]

I remove your Dependency daily

[finite frigate]

arth perhaps just block and move on lol

[wind stag]

The mesh and texture changes are largely irrelevant

[pine crown]

If only Discord blocking was actually useful.

And no, they really are not irrelevant. We have a whole changelog that details every last one of those if you'd care to look.

[wind stag]

I have extensively

I do appreciate the blades shield fix on female vampires

But if I'm already using another mod to retexture fur pelts in 1k, your 44 MB retexture in 4k is unnecessary.

[pine crown]

Check the base game files. That pelt is delivered in 4K by the game, but has an inverted normal map which is what we fixed at the same resolution.

So it's not unnecessary since it's fixing the issue at hand. It would not be a bug fix to reduce that file at the same time.

[wind stag]

I know, I just would have fixed that as well as the Delphine brazier issues

[echo pivot]

Agreed. 4k is not a bug. Just extra MB which is precious on Xbox.

[wind stag]

😱. Tanis agree

[pallid otter]

Fix the 4.7 GB and 150 mod slot bugs?

[pine crown]

I get that, but the bug was reported to us and we fixed it. The 5GB size limit is something you need to take up with Microsoft, not me 😛

[echo pivot]

Fair

[wind stag]

Delphine?

[echo pivot]

But alas they are not on this discord.

[pine crown]

What about her?

[wind stag]

Get Todd here

[pine crown]

In any case the 5GB issue has been brought up plenty of times before. It doesn't seem likely that anything will be done to raise it.

[echo pivot]

Right. Which is why mod authors are our only hope. 😁

[wind stag]

By condensing and trimming unnecessary fat

[pine crown]

Well then you should find other places to advocate for that trimming because we don't have any unnecessary fat,. [That we know of]

Other people have found things floating around in the archive before that we didn't notice were already addressed in the SE base files and those did get removed in the last 2 updates we had.

So if you do actually run across something that actually shouldn't be there, please make sure it's on our tracker so we can look into it.

[azure frigate]

I heard that ~270 MB of USSEP is texture/mesh fixes, is that true? I think that textures are largely a taste thing, unless they actuality mess with gameplay somehow. If so much space is spent on textures that people overwrite anyway with mods that appeal to their taste, why put them in a bug fix mod?

[echo pivot]

4k textures are unnecessary on Xbox.

Not a bug. Just unnecessary.

[pine crown]

Well then you need to take up that issue with the devs, they're the ones who made the 4K stuff in the first place.

[pallid otter]

To save a little space, has anyone tried deleting Dragonbone armor replacers while leaving a false explanation for the update?

[echo pivot]

Which is why most of my texture mods are 1k.

[pine crown]

And that's fine. Even on PC it's pretty overkill to have 4K everything.

But if the devs ship a file in 4K and we find an issue with it, it's getting fixed in 4K.

The best case solution here would be for such issues to get corrected at their level so we can then remove our fix.

[echo pivot]

I see you understand why we are asking. And I also understand your USSEP vision. The two are at odds with each other. But it still would be great.

[pine crown]

To answer the question though - currently textures take up 204MB in total. That archive is compressed during upload but I don't know how much the CK actually compresses it.
All of the mesh fixes take up an additional 267MB on disk, and again, I don't know for sure how much (or even if) the CK compresses that archive on upload.

Size is listed as 365MB on the mod site so I'd say it's at least decent compression.

[azure frigate]

If it is 270 of texture/mesh fixes separating those out would bring the mod to under 100. Considering most of the textures/meshes likely get overwritten with other mods anyway, that would be a significant savings that many people would appreciate.

[pine crown]

It's not quite that simple.

[azure frigate]

Do mods like GP, Skyland & Noble overwrite most changes?

[pine crown]

Plus I think you'd find that most of the mods you're talking about don't overwrite nearly as much as people claim.

[azure frigate]

Looking at a lot of people's LOs though, most people spend a lot of mod space on mesh/textures. I imagine with all the mods people usually use, most of the changes get overwritten, but I don't really have a way to know for sure.

[pine crown]

Nobody does unless there's a PC equivalent of the mod to look at. But that doesn't guarantee those ports are 1:1 either.

[ashen heron]

CK does compress the textures archive but it does not compress the meshes archive. I usually use archive.exe to pack and compress both archives. Compress the meshes archive usually saves a decent amount space but not all meshes can be compressed but it seems you never really if that is the case until you try it haha

[tribal comet]

if you use bsarch, it automatically does what's best for the contents of the package.

[ashen heron]

Oh that’s good to know! Thanks 🙂

[pine crown]

Well the big problem here is that you can't initiate an upload to bnet with a set of prebuilt archives because it will lock up and consume all the RAM on the system if you don't stop it. So you're left with what the CK thinks is best.

[ashen heron]

If you place the archives in the Xbox folder first, it will just use them when you them when you go to upload in CK and won’t freeze up. That’s how I do pretty much all my uploads

[pine crown]

I've tried that, it still freezes up.

It's not an overly big deal anymore since I can get Wrye Bash to generate achlist files for the CK to use as a list.

[candid flume]

What if you have a lot of RAM. I have 256gb. I’d like to see how much CK can use.

[tribal comet]

similar to what i was doing back in the FO4 CK beta days when i uploaded to Bethnet. it never worked for Arthmoor?

[buoyant loom]

I just wanna know what’s going on with creation club. They had some awesome stuff in the pipeline but that was over a year ago now...

[pine crown]

The odd thing is that for me, FO4 has the opposite problem. I can't upload unless the archives are already built and ready to go.

It's why the PS4 copy of UFO4P hasn't been updated in eons. The stupid CK just won't let me.

[echo pivot]

same lol

[pine crown]

The amount of RAM in the system does have an impact on larger uploads because while its gathering up filenames, it eats a bunch, and if you run out it crashes. That memory is immediately released again if it can finish that task.

[echo pivot]

i dont archive thru ck. so dont have that problem 🤷

[pine crown]

As I mentioned earlier, having those archives present causes a runaway memory usage. So there's really not much of a choice for me.

[echo pivot]

as the "destroyer of bugs" maybe you should fix that

[echo pivot]

YES THIS

[candid flume]

Who is “we”? I’m honestly curious.

All your mods say “Arthmoor” on them.

[pine crown]

"We" in that sense is the USSEP team.

[candid flume]

I just realized it could be a pronoun preference. The purpose of my question originally was an inquiry to who else is to be credited for USSEP. I was not asking for pronoun purposes but I’m also not opposed to using whatever.

Is there a link to the team?

[pine crown]

About as close as you're gonna get - everyone who wanted to be included in this list has been: https://www.afkmods.com/Unofficial Skyrim Special Edition Patch Readme + Credits.html

I have thought about setting aside a section specifically for team members but I'd need to run that past them first.

[candid flume]

I’m a big fan of SparrowPrince. He’s part of the team or that credit section is just contributors?

[pine crown]

There's team members mixed in there, but yes, most of this is from contributors who said it was ok to include them.

[candid flume]

Have you used USSEP on console to verify its efficacy?

[echo pivot]

by many reports their game is more stable without it 🤷.

[ebon anchor]

I agree with the above

[night fractal]

I hear an undetectable extension charm works wonders as well

[candid flume]

I use Diffindo, it works great.

[pine crown]

Not personally, no, but there are hundreds (probably thousands) who swear by it in every corner of the net you can think of where mods get discussed. A few random people on reddit who think otherwise are not reliable sources.

[candid flume]

https://tenor.com/view/skyrim-games-goty-tes-gif-19429561

[echo pivot]

@candid flume as we have already discussed I have never had any problems with USSEP besides wishing it were smaller.

[azure frigate]

Almost everybody on Xbox that uses it wishes it were smaller

[pine crown]

Making it smaller would be great for me too because then it's not as much to upload each time. My crap upload speed would love it.

[candid flume]

Maybe have someone else on your team upload it?

[pine crown]

All that would do is shift the duty of uploading it to someone else. It's not going to change the size of the package.

[solid marlin]

Alternatively, if you played oldrim or vanilla you can learn workarounds for most of the bugs and save yourself all the space 🙃

Just let the record show that USSEP is not "essential", rather a preference

[candid flume]

Exactly, like smoking.

[weary mural]

i wish so many mods didnt have ussep as a requirement, Could really use the space.

[pine crown]

Yep, you can choose to smoke, or you can choose to quit and have a better life experience. Just as you can choose to play with bugs, or choose not to and have a better game experience.

[solid marlin]

Yep exactly

[solid marlin]

That would be great if all it did were fix bugs

[candid flume]

Diffindo, works wonders.

[pine crown]

Yeah, not gonna play this game of what it does and doesn't do with you guys. It fixes bugs and that's that.

[solid marlin]

Lol

You didn't refute my statement because its true

[pine crown]

So would you just like me to say it's false? Cause I can.

Or I can just say all it does is fix bugs, nothing more, and leave it at that.

[solid marlin]

Never said it didn't fix bugs, but 98% of those bugs can be worked around and save you 400 mbs of space on console

But when it fixes things that aren't bugs, you gotta decide for yourself

[candid flume]

I’m not even sure there are 2% of bugs that can’t be fixed. I’d prefer to assume that Bethesda released a production-ready game.

[pine crown]

Like I said, everything it does is a bug fix, so I don't know why you're trying to insist otherwise. Except for this wild hair a few people have about how big it is. But I guess you guys don't care and the disinformation you've been given is more important to you.

[candid flume]

Wow no need for a hostile tone. I think they were just saying they like to save space is all and prioritize.

[solid marlin]

That's exactly what I was saying

[pine crown]

Sam. We both know what you're trying to do here and I'm not sure why you see the need to do it.

You can feel free to take that discussion to DMs though as I doubt it's relevant to this server.

[solid marlin]

And besides, I'm not the only one who thinks this way, I'd just prefer to have a patch that solely fixes bugs, and doesn't change an ebony mine to an iron one 🤷‍♂️

I also prefer to stay out of the company of mod thieves, but that's just me

[candid flume]

What patch?

[pine crown]

Well you have a patch that solely fixes bugs. So I dunno what else you want.
Regarding the ebony mine issue you're referring to: https://www.afkmods.com/index.php?/topic/5715-frequently-raised-issues-about-the-patch/&do=findComment&comment=177637

[candid flume]

Oh, that’s not a patch. That’s a mod.

[undone moss]

a mod that patches/fixes bugs... what is your point?

[candid flume]

My point is, it’s a mod... which is what I just said.

[pine crown]

A "patch" does not need to be something only the company distributes. Every major modding community out there has one that's referred to as either an unofficial patch or a community patch.

[solid marlin]

That's fair, but that sounds more like an "immersion" issue than a "bug" issue.

Its just not essential

[candid flume]

I think you’ve told me that before about your mod.

[solid marlin]

I've done playthroughs with and without the patch

[pine crown]

Nobody here is saying it is essential.
