New AE Build Part 6: All The Differences Between Us

When I wrapped up yesterday, I had intended this session to cover a review of my various SKSE enhancements and patches, including a discussion of which one's I'm adding immediately and which ones are going to wait until later. However, after reviewing them I realized that I just didn't have anything interesting to blog about on that score, so I went ahead and took care of those off the record. Today we'll get back to the NPCs - and in particular, building our EasyNPC population. If you followed

Back To Where It All Began

Stormcloak Field Camp, Whiterun Hold     Her long years in Cyrodiil had hardened both Ysmira's heart and her resolve, so when her lover sought to use her as a means to secure his own rise to power, Ysmira decided it was time to return to the Vampire who made her...   Many caves dotted the plains of Whiterun Hold, but Ysmira found her way back to Brokenfang Cave with hardly an upward glance, memories of her first months as a fledgling vampire occupying her mind as she m

New AE Build Part 5: The Sculpting of The Clay

Welcome back, everyone! Last time we replaced the vanilla bodies for male and female humanoids with the bodyslide-friendly HIMBO and BHUNP bodies, then rebuilt all the vanilla clothing to support their body morphs. Today we are going introduce some features to take advantage of those capabilities - though before we start on that we need to get at least a basic install of Schlongs of Skyrim going first. We won't be doing any customized variations or intersex support yet, but we do need to have SO

Act 5 - Chapter 21 | Midnight Express (P1)

Another day later.  I opened my eyes with difficulty, my head was aching. I had just come out of a two-day coma and the first thing I heard was a car on metal tracks. I was still naked and tied up with a lot of filth on my skin. A well-known collar had been placed around my neck. Oddly enough, I hadn't missed it. When my vision regained focus, I looked inside the wagon.                There were more slaves. The ones at the back were dead. The guy on the left seemed lost in h

New AE Build Part 4: The Forms of Flesh

Well, we made it past our first milestone - Patrician ENB is up and running with no unresolved deficiencies other than that fishing error (which fortunately seems to be benign). However, as you've no doubt observed from the screen shots, we have some issues with potato people in the game world. In this session, we'll focus on making our NPCs more realistic.   Laying the Groundwork First things first, we need bodies. We will be using BHUNP for females and futanari, and HIMBO for ma

New AE Build Part 3: The Weather

Welcome back! Yesterday we got water, fire, and lighting updated, as well as a number of collateral benefits to the outside world from Lux Via. Today, the goal is to get as close to possible to installing the ENB preset - and ideally to actually achieve that milestone. This will start with installing the ENB Particle Patch as well as several environmental mods that will support an installation of SOLAS Weather. Before we do that, however, let's check out Papyrus log from the last session and sno

New AE Build Part 2: The Waters and The Light

Welcome back, folks. Yesterday we set up the bare bones for the new AE build and tested it to make sure everything was working properly. After giving it a clean bill of health, I spent some time going over the papyrus logs and resolved several script errors in the Creation Club content. I also pruned out some unimplemented features from Alternate Perspective that were causing errors in the Papyrus log. All that's left now are some false alarms (FNIS complaining that it doesn't have any animation

Entry 0: Prologue

My name is Alicia Skull-Smasher, and I leave behind this record of my life in case something happens to me.   In the year 171 of the Fourth Era, my then-pregnant mother, Amaara Resvan, fled our homeland of Skyrim at the onset of The Great War between the Aldmeri Dominion and the Imperial forces in Hammerfell and Cyrodil; leaving our family homestead in The Rift, and finding passage aboard a smuggler's cart to the southern-most reaches of Black Marsh to escape the war. My father, a sold

Kapitel 40 – Rückkehr ins Commonwealth – wollen wir einen Schneemann bauen?   Die Rückfahrt mit der „Duches Gambit“ dauerte einen Monat und war im wesentlichen ereignislos – wenn man von den zwei durch Stürme verursachten Stopps in kleinen Buchten absieht. Aber diese Halte boten den beiden Frauen an Bord auch die Gelegenheit sich näher zu kommen als die normale Routine an Bord während der Fahrt es zulassen würde. Nadine war jetzt die neue Besitzerin des Schiffes und bei jedem Ha

New AE Build Part 1: The Immaterial

I decided to start building my new AE setup today since I found myself a little fixated on the idea after the aborted launch from earlier. As I mentioned in my last post, the goal here is to get a lo of the richness and nuance of my last version without the bloat. I will eventually lean on certain elements of the old setup, but other parts will be all new, using the latest tools that have become available rather than the patchwork I assembled in the past.   I started by doing a clean i

I tried to do the Valerica test run on my 1900 mod build... it didn't go so well

Hi folks, I was planning to use my giant 1900 mod build to run a test of the controversial Valerica romance mod. Unfortunately, it didn't go quite the way I expected. I've rolled up this fellow for the quest, and we'll start by traveling to Fort Dawnguard and joining their ranks.     This session will be running on a very slightly updated version of my main build, using 1906 mods. It's not perfectly up to date as many elements have been updated while I was off playing Fallou
