guide Skyrim SE for Beginners - V 3.2.6 (3BBB / HDT-SMP / HPH)

[jaeos]

As an aside do not install the included jcontainers from violens into the mod, it is not a compatable version. it breaks things.

Added the Sisterhood of Dibella CBBE Bodyslide Files to 'LL' so they are easier to find.

i still can't get that to work right or SD+( although i nuked both at the same time to fix a ctd issue. i always figured they went hand in hand 

[Aylis]

@jaeos

SD+ works fine. Only the sisterhood is a problem atm as we have to wait for the update (or the return of the old 132 version with its loose files).

 

For now i run the combination of 132 and the April update. I havn't progressed that far in the questline, but it seems to be working...

Testing atm:

 

Extraordinary Eggs SE

Looks good but might be a bit overkill...

 

No More Hay Beds SSE

Will end up as an optional file.

 

Lightning During Storms

True Storms - Minty's Lightning Compatibility

Where's a storm when you need one…

 

Wet and Cold

True Storms - Wet and Cold Compatibility

Wet and Cold - Fur Hoods Fix

Works like RASS, gives us cloaks, hoods, facemakes, goggles, backpacks and an AI for the NPC. Looking good so far (and the conflict i had earlier seems to be gone too).

 

CC's HQ Caves

Undecided. Got to check more caves.

any of the environment mods i can't really play with, the player trees that come with trykz forest nymph race are not frostfall or campfire compatible. (it's in a tree, no heat sources) race should be impervious to any condition but they are not, so i don't use them. but i'll see what the lightning one does with a slightly less build than yours. 

EDIT: As soon as i used the show settings option after you learn the spell on minty it locked into a loop, click ok, pops right back up. i had to force end skyrim.

As long as you stay out of the SHOW SETTINGS. i like it personally.

My issue with SD+ is the ZAZ requirement. i honestly would love it if DD and SD+ kicked the ZAZ part out and made their own framework together. Zaz seems to be pretty unstable unless you are doing a purely sloot mod build, no extra races, no textures, just Sexlab (and add-ons) ZAZ, DD (and requirements) and animations. and just porn-star their way across tamriel. this is the bottom of mine with the ones i want to play with, but i get a ton of CTD with them active.

For any custom races you're going to need a patch for Skyrim. Otherwise it can have unforeseen consequences...

[MasterCode86]

so far i am past the foundation, just installing skse extensions. So far no problems as i been reading the materials much more now. Question though.

 

Any solutions found yet for the query errors for skse involving jcontainers?

[MasterCode86]

question for Kythana, do i need to install https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/10546/? dll plugin loader? Its on the requirements list for SSE Fixes but not on your list (i think)

Yes you will need the DLL plugin.

Which query errors? Do you mean errors showing up in the bottom window of MO2? Ignore those. So far these have always been false positives. Try installing something via FOMOD and every option you don't use shows up as an error.

No, you will NOT!

 

It is already integrated in another mod in that group!

[MasterCode86]

see! this is the kind of input i was talking about! God to know! thank you Kythanna

[MasterCode86]

to save myself the blood pressure i am going to do the install nice and slow and asking questions,,you know...the asshole way  Sorry Kythanna

[Aylis]

No problem!

 

This might only end up adding things to the description. ?

Hey, cheers for the guide. I'm having some issues though after going through everything. I haven't had any errors or issues with installation but now when I try to start the game and switch gender at character creation I'm CTDing. I've tried switching the default gender and it CTDs before we even get to character creation (basically, trying to play a female character is crashing my game).

I've googled and it seems it might be related to racemenu but I've no idea how to fix it. Any ideas?

 

 

Here's my load order

Spoiler

 

My machine if it's relevant;

CPU: FX8350 4ghz

GFX: RX590 8gb

RAM: 16gb DDR3 2400

Skyrim is installed and run from an SSD.

try switching to argonian then female then the race you actually want to play. the only things i have are race compatability fixes for sse, racemenu and racemenu high heel fix, if you go straight to female it lags terrably so i just do the argonian female race switch and do not have an issue

Spoiler

Mine has never seen LOOT after i redid it this last time. the way the mods are listed in the guide are exactly how i list mine (plus added races etc) and don't have an issue at all. well except that new lightning mod.. that thing hurts when you get hit...

Are you talking about the notification up at the top of MO2 saying skse reports jcontainers is incompatable with current version?

yes, i know from before that an audio mod , the big overhaul had that issue. Supposedly violens also causes it

[Aylis]

@Jansen2

Loadorder incorrect:

6 should be way lower (aka #16)

17 should be way lower (aka #82) Quote: The ESM and ESP from DynDOLOD stay at the bottom.

19 way too high... 'Weather and Lighting' (and Sound) should always be just before 'LL'.

24 should be way lower (aka #29)

You have an addon to a mod before the actual mod...

71 and 75 activated although the author says not to do that...

violens has an old version of jcontainers included, if you install the accurate j containers where kythana has it listed, if something (anything) is overwriting it there will be the lightning bolt with a - next to it, click jcontainers once and any mod that overwrites it is highlighted in red.

[jaeos]

@Kythana other than diversity (not your reccomendation) is there any other AIO mod that changes everybody? apparently the author of diversity decided to put it on hidden and it is having a unp skin on cbbe body issue, and i'm not playing fallout 4 as A.S.I.A. so.. gaps in the hips are a hard stop..

None that i know of. You get a lot for female NPC, but the ones for the male NPC are almost nonexistant and don't cover all.

That might be because of the custom race. Its the small things like this why i don't use any custom races at all.

well the custom race i am using is the forest nymph. 50hp at lvl 1. 

i added back men of winter (had it below diversity) so i save ralof and let hadvar and his pornstache get crushed under a rock.

With Training dummies and targets do we download the main file, falskaar file or both if we have Falskaar installed?
