I step inside Forgotten Lair and it is necromancers and not animals which means selling skooma and not fighting. Hey, it works for me.

 

'Badass' my arse. Nevermind, there's plenty more fish in the sea.

 

I can make some money shaggin' too. "Get yo' skinny white ass over here".

 

This lad must have been near the front of the queue when SOS was loading.

 

Forgotten Lair is one huge dungeon. I had been wandering around in there for about five years when who do I bump into? HSO villain Mona the Fire Witch. WTF? And then I died.

 

Take 2 featured the usual tactic of poisoning my blade, running back into a room full of necromancers, letting them take some of the pep out of her and hopefully coming out on the winning team.

 

Seeing as the lighting was good in here I decided to give my PC and new look. I did a showracemenu* and had a look at a few presets.

* I call it show rackem enoo. And why not?

 

I settled on this one, at least for the time being. I wasn't convinced by the hair colour but it'll do for noo.

 

It lasted until I pulled back the camera about 30 seconds later.

 

Exit game, go to my Custom Races Redguard textures folder and everything is present and correct. This preset is just a variation of the first one. When I was creating this character I did about 5 or 6 variations. The only things I changed were things like weight, hair style, hair colour etc. They were all the same race, body and skin texture.

 

I decided to go for a different mesh and skin texture while I was out of the game. I didn't change the preset.

So the body and skin changed to the new ones but the head reverted to the original. ☹️ ?‍♂️

 

Eventually I finish leave Forgotten Lair my pockets full and my skooma stocks reduced. ?

I exit and get attacked by wolves. Here we go.

 

I want to drop by Dushnikh Yal (Dushy) to sell some loot but I see a fight going on.

This guy seems to be taking on all-comers.

 

Whoever he is, he has taken out 10 or 12 forsworn that I can see without looking around too much. He doesn't appear to be hostile to me. Let's hope it stays that way. ?

 

[Major panic there. I thought I was losing my connection to LL and was going to lose all this. I think it has just gone dog-slow.]

 

He was non-hostile and was some sort of 'Adventurer' but obviously not one of the lone nutter types who attack me everywhere. I forgot to look to see what mod he was from.

 

I get to Dushy and . . .

 

My orcs are from Dames of Skyrim. I've used DoS since it was released years ago. I have never had a moments trouble with DoS. All the vanilla females in Dushy are like this. WTF? ?

 

It is just the vanillas. Bumzel the Bald is good.

 

Exit game. XEdit, nifskope, everything fine.

It's one thing when you try something and it screw up something but when something that has been perfect for several years just ups and screws up  . . .
